The answer is predict, because it fits, and because someone can predict the outcome of something.
1) Chemical reaction:
Fe2O3 + 2Al ---> Al2O3 + 2Fe
2) molar ratios
1 mol Fe2O3 : 2Al : 1 mol Al2O3 : 2 mol Fe
3) Convert 15.0 g of iron into moles
atomic mass Fe = 55.8 g/mol
moles = mass in grams / atomic mass = 15.0 g / 55.8 g/mol = 0.269 mol
4) Use proportions to determine the moles of Fe2O3, Al, and Al2O3
a) 1mol Fe2O3 / 2 mol Fe = x / 0.269 mol Fe
x =
=> x = 0.269 mol Fe * 1 mol Fe2O3 / 2 mol Fe = 0.134 mol Fe2O3
b) 2 mol Al / 2 mol Fe = x / 0.269 mol Fe
=> x = 0.269 mol Al
c) 2 mol Fe / 1 mol Al2O3 = 0.269 mol Fe / x
=> x = 0.269 mol Fe * 1 mol Al2O3 / 2 mol Fe
x = 0.134 mol Al2O3
5) Convert moles to grams
a) Fe2O3
molar mass Fe2O3 = 2* 55.8 g/mol + 3*16g/mol = 159.6 g/mol
mass = molar mass * number of moles
mass = 159.6 g/mol * 0.134 mol = 21.4 g
b) Al
atomic mass = 27.0 g/mol
mass = number of moles * atomic mass = 0.269 mol * 27.0 g/mol = 7.26 g
c) Al2O3
molar mass = 2 * 27.0 g/mol + 3*16.0 g/mol = 102.0g/mol
mass Al2O3 = numer of moles * molar mass = 0.134 mol * 102.0 g/mol = 13.7 g
Answers:
21.4 g Fe2O3
7.26 g Al
13.7 g Al2O3
Answer:
2Mg(s) +O₂(g) → 2MgO(s)
Explanation:
Mg(s) +O₂(g) → MgO(s)
When a chemical equation is balanced, the number of atoms of each element is equal on both sides of the arrow. We usually balance O and H last.
In this case, the number of Mg atoms is equal on both sides. Thus, let's move on to balance the O atoms. On the left side, there are 2 O atoms, while there is only 1 O atom on the left side. Thus, write a '2' in front of MgO.
Mg(s) +O₂(g) → 2MgO(s)
Now, the number of Mg atoms is not equal. Write a '2' in front of Mg to balance it.
2Mg(s) +O₂(g) → 2MgO(s)
The equation is now balanced with 2 Mg atoms and 2 O atoms on each side.
Answer:
Heat, solutes and high temperature.
Explanation:
A supersaturated solution can be formed by dissolving solute more solute in solvent by increasing temperature of the solution. A supersaturated solution contains more quantity of solutes than can be dissolved in the solvent at room temperature. A solution may remain supersaturated until the solution has high temperature and when the temperature started lower, the extra dissolve solutes begin undissolved and remain suspended in the solution.
