How many moles are in 1.2x10^3 grams of ammonia, NH3?
KonstantinChe [14]
I don't have a calculator with me right now, but that mass would be 1200 grams. Divide the given amount of grams by the molar mass of NH3, which is 17.031g/mol. (Nitrogen + 3(hydrogen)). Again, sorry I didn't have a calculator. But all you would need to do is divide 1200 by 17.031. If you need to use sig figs, your answer should have 2 because the 1.2 x 10^3 limits your amount of sig figs.

A student reacts 20.0 mL of 0.248 M H2SO4 with 15.0 mL of 0.195 M NaOH. Write a balanced chemical equation to show this reaction
Molodets [167]

<u>Answer:</u> The concentration of salt (sodium sulfate), sulfuric acid and NaOH in the solution is 0.0418 M, 0.0999 M and 0 M respectively.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles for given molarity, we use the equation:

\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}     .....(1)

<u>For NaOH:</u>

Initial molarity of NaOH solution = 0.195 M

Volume of solution = 15.0 mL = 0.015 L   (Conversion factor:   1 L = 1000 mL)

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

0.195M=\frac{\text{Moles of NaOH}}{0.015L}\\\\\text{Moles of NaOH}=(0.195mol/L\times 0.015L)=2.925\times 10^{-3}mol

<u>For sulfuric acid:</u>

Initial molarity of sulfuric acid solution = 0.248 M

Volume of solution = 20.0 mL = 0.020 L

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

0.248M=\frac{\text{Moles of }H_2SO_4}{0.020L}\\\\\text{Moles of }H_2SO_4=(0.248mol/L\times 0.020L)=4.96\times 10^{-3}mol

The chemical equation for the reaction of NaOH and sulfuric acid follows:

2NaOH+H_2SO_4\rightarrow Na_2SO_4+2H_2O

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of NaOH reacts with 1 mole of sulfuric acid

So, 2.925\times 10^{-3} moles of KOH will react with = \frac{1}{2}\times 2.925\times 10^{-3}=1.462\times 10^{-3}mol of sulfuric acid

As, given amount of sulfuric acid is more than the required amount. So, it is considered as an excess reagent.

Thus, NaOH is considered as a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of product.

Excess moles of sulfuric acid = (4.96-1.462)\times 10^{-3}=3.498\times 10^{-3}mol

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of KOH produces 1 mole of sodium sulfate

So, 2.925\times 10^{-3} moles of KOH will produce = \frac{1}{2}\times 2.925\times 10^{-3}=1.462\times 10^{-3}mol of sodium sulfate

  • <u>For sodium sulfate:</u>

Moles of sodium sulfate = 1.462\times 10^{-3}moles

Volume of solution = [15.0 + 20.0] = 35.0 mL = 0.035 L

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Molarity of sodium sulfate}=\frac{1.462\times 10^{-3}}{0.035}=0.0418M

  • <u>For sulfuric acid:</u>

Moles of excess sulfuric acid = 3.498\times 10^{-3}mol

Volume of solution = [15.0 + 20.0] = 35.0 mL = 0.035 L

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Molarity of sulfuric acid}=\frac{3.498\times 10^{-3}}{0.035}=0.0999M

  • <u>For NaOH:</u>

Moles of NaOH remained = 0 moles

Volume of solution = [15.0 + 20.0] = 35.0 mL = 0.035 L

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Molarity of NaOH}=\frac{0}{0.050}=0M

Hence, the concentration of salt (sodium sulfate), sulfuric acid and NaOH in the solution is 0.0418 M, 0.0999 M and 0 M respectively.

How many miles of C atoms are present in a sample of 3.85x1024 C atoms?
alekssr [168]
Answer:
number of moles = 6.393 moles

Explanation:
One mole of any substance contains Avogadro's number (6.022 * 10^23) of atoms. 
Therefore, to know the number of moles that contain 3.85 * 10^24 atoms, all we have to do is cross multiplication as follows:
1 mole ......................> 6.022 * 10^23
?? moles ..................> 3.85 * 10^24
number of moles = (3.85 * 10^24 *1) / (6.022 * 10^23)
number of moles = 6.393 moles

Hope this helps :)

5.50 L of a 0.190 M CaCl2M CaCl2 solution<br> How do you find Grams?
Firdavs [7]

Answer:

115.891

Explanation:

Molarity is equal to moles/liters so to get moles we multiply molarity by liters, after this we multiply the moles by the total atomic weight of the compound to get grams

One application of Hess's Law (which works for ΔH, ΔS, and ΔG) is calculating the overall energy of a reaction using standard en
VikaD [51]

Answer:

The standard change in free energy for the reaction =  - 437.5 kj/mole

Explanation:

The standard change in free energy for the reaction:

                              4 KClO₃ (s) → 3 KClO₄(s) + KCl(s)

Given that   ΔGf(KClO3(s)) = -290.9 kJ/mol;

                    ΔGf(KClO4(s)) = -300.4 kJ/mol;

                    ΔGf(KCl(s)) = -409 kJ/mol

According to Hess's law

ΔGr (Free energy change of reaction)= ∑(Product free energy - reactant free energy)

               ⇒ ΔGr⁰ = {3 x (-300.4) + (-409)} - {3 x (- 290.9)}

                            = - 901.2 - 409 + 872.7

                            =  - 437.5 kj/mole
