2 answers:

7 0

The mass for of aluminum that is produced by the decomposition of 5.0 Kg Al2O3 is 2647 g or 2.647 Kg

calculation
Write the equation for decomposition of Al2O3

Al2O3 = 2Al + 3 O2

find the moles of Al2O3 = mass/molar mass

convert 5 Kg to g = 5 x1000 = 5000 grams
molar mass of Al2O3 = 27 x2 + 16 x3 = 102 g/mol

moles =5000 g/ 102 g/mol = 49.0196 moles

by use of mole ratio between Al2O3 to Al which is 1:2 the moles of Al = 49.0196 x2 =98.0392 moles

mass of Al = moles x molar mass

= 98.0392 moles x 27g/mol = 2647 grams or 2647/1000 = 2.647 Kg

Answer: 2.7 kg

Explanation:

1) Find the molar mass of Al₂O₃, using the atomic masses of Al and O:


2x27.0g/mol + 3x16.0g/mol = 102.0 g/mol

2) Find the ratio of Al to Al₂O₃:


2x27.0 / 102.0 = 54.0/102.0 = 27.0/51.0 = 9.0/17.0

3) Use proportionality:

9.0 Kg Al / 17.0 kg Al₂O₃ = x / 5.0 kg


⇒ x = 5.0kg Al₂O₃ x (9.0 kg Al/ 17.0 Kg) Al₂O₃

x = 2.65 kg = 2.7 Kg


Al = 2.7 kg Al

A 6.1-kg solid sphere, made of metal whose density is 2600 kg/m3, is suspended by a cord. When the sphere is immersed in a liqui

deff fn [24]

Answer:

Density of the liquid = 1470.43 kg/m³

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of solid sphere(m) = 6.1 kg

Density of the metal = 2600 kg/m³

Thus volume of the liquid :

$Volume(V)=\frac{Mass(m)}{Density (\rho)}$

Volume of the sphere = 6.1 kg/2600 kg/m³ = 0.002346 m³

The volume of water displaced is equal to the volume of sphere (Archimedes' principle)

Volume displaced = 0.002346 m³

Buoyant force = $\rho\times gV$

Where

$\rho$ is the density of the fluid

g is the acceleration due to gravity

V is the volume displaced

The free body diagram of the sphere is shown in image.

According to image:

$mg=\rho\times gV+T$

Acceleration due to gravity = 9.81 ms⁻²

Tension force = 26 N

Applying in the equation to find the density of the liquid as:

$6.1\times 9.81=\rho\times 9.81\times 0.002346+26$

$33.841=\rho\times 9.81\times 0.002346$

$\rho=\frac{33.841}{9.81\times 0.002346}$

$\rho=1470.43 kgm^3$

Thus, the density of the liquid = 1470.43 kg/m³

Suppose a 2.95 g of potassium iodide is dissolved in 350. mL of a 62.0 m M aqueous solution of silver nitrate. Calculate the fin

STALIN [3.7K]

Answer : The final molarity of iodide anion in the solution is 0.0508 M.

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the moles of $KI$ and $AgNO_3$ .

$\text{Moles of }KI=\frac{\text{Mass of }KI}{\text{Molar mass of }KI}$

Molar mass of KI = 166 g/mole

$\text{Moles of }KI=\frac{2.95g}{166g/mole}=0.0178mole$

and,

$\text{Moles of }AgNO_3=\text{Concentration of }AgNO_3\times \text{Volume of solution}=0.0620M\times 0.350L=0.0217mole$

Now we have to calculate the limiting and excess reagent.

The given chemical reaction is:

$KI+AgNO_3\rightarrow KNO_3+AgI$

From the balanced reaction we conclude that

As, 1 mole of KI react with 1 mole of $AgNO_3$

So, 0.0178 mole of KI react with 0.0178 mole of $AgNO_3$

From this we conclude that, $AgNO_3$ is an excess reagent because the given moles are greater than the required moles and KI is a limiting reagent and it limits the formation of product.

Now we have to calculate the moles of $AgI$
