Answer:
126.0g of water were initially present
Explanation:
The electrolysis of water occurs as follows:
2H₂O(l) ⇄ 2H₂(g) + O₂(g)
<em>Where 2 moles of water produce 2 moles of hydrogen and 1 mole of oxygen.</em>
<em />
To find the mass of water we need to determine moles of oxygen and hydrogen, thus:
<em>Moles Hydrogen:</em>
14.0g H₂ ₓ (1mol / 2g H₂) = 7 moles H₂
<em>Moles Oxygen:</em>
112.0g O₂ ₓ (1mol / 32g) = 3.5 moles O₂
Based on the chemical equation, the moles of water initially present were 7 moles (That produce 7 moles H₂ and 3.5 moles O₂). The mass of 7 moles of H₂O is:
7 moles H₂O * (18g / mol) =
<h3>126.0g of water were initially present</h3>
The density of an object is defined as its mass divided by its volume. Mathematically, density = Mass / Volume. The unit of density is kilogram per cubic meter, kg / m^3 or g /cm^3.
For the question given above: the
Mass = 200.0 g
Volume = 100.0 cm^3
Therefore, Density = Mass / Volume = 200 / 100 = 2
Thus, the density of the object is 2 g /cm^3.
