Answer:

0.8 mol.

Explanation:

The balanced equation for the reaction between Al and FeO is represented as:

2Al + 3FeO → 3Fe + Al₂O₃,

It is clear that 2 mol of Al react with 3 mol of FeO to produce 3 mol of Fe and 1 mol of Al₂O₃.

Using cross multiplication:

2 mol of Al needs → 3 mol of FeO, from stichiometry.

??? mol of Al needs → 1.2 mol of FeO.

∴ The no. of moles of Al are needed to react completely with 1.2 mol of FeO = (2 mol)(1.2 mol)/(3 mol) = 0.8 mol.

A) What is the mole ratio of magnesium/magnesium chloride?

Fed [463]

Answer:1:1

There is a 1:1 molar ratio between magnesium and magnesium chloride. Magnesium has a molar mass of 24.31g/mol.

Explanation:

If you begin with 25.0 g of magnesium, how many moles of magnesium oxide will ... g C9H8O4. Now calculate percent yield. % yield = actual theoretical. × 100 =.

A 0.595 g sample of a metal, M, reacts completely with sulfuric acid according to the reaction M ( s ) + H 2 SO 4 ( aq ) ⟶ MSO 4

zalisa [80]

Answer:

molar mass M(s) = 65.326 g/mol

Explanation:

M(s) + H2SO4(aq) → MSO4(aq) + H2(g)

∴ VH2(g) = 231 mL = 0.231 L

∴ P atm = 1.0079 bar

∴ PvH2O(25°C) = 0.03167 bar

Graham´s law:

⇒ PH2(g) = P atm - PvH2O(25°C)

⇒ PH2(g) = 1.0079 bar - 0.03167 bar = 0.97623 bar = 0.9635 atm

∴ nH2(g) = PV/RT

⇒ nH2(g) = ((0.9635 atm)(0.231 L))/((0.082 atmL/Kmol)(298 K))

⇒ nH2(g) = 9.1082 E-3 mol

⇒ n M(s) = ( 9.1082 E-3 mol H2(g) )(mol M(s)/mol H2(g))

⇒ n M(s) = 9.1082 E-3 mol

∴ molar mass M(s) [=] g/mol

⇒ molar mass M(s) = (0.595 g) / (9.1082 E-3 mol)

⇒ molar mass M(s) = 65.326 g/mol

Outline the steps needed to determine the limiting reactant when 30.0 g of propane, C3H8, is burned with 75.0 g of oxygen.

kumpel [21]

Answer : The limiting reactant is $O_2$

Explanation : Given,

Mass of $C_3H_8$ = 30.0 g

Mass of $O_2$ = 75.0 g

Molar mass of $C_3H_8$ = 44 g/mole

Molar mass of $O_2$ = 32 g/mole

First we have to calculate the moles of $C_3H_8$ and $O_2$ .

$\text{ Moles of }C_3H_8=\frac{\text{ Mass of }C_3H_8}{\text{ Molar mass of }C_3H_8}=\frac{30.0g}{44g/mole}=0.682moles$

$\text{ Moles of }O_2=\frac{\text{ Mass of }O_2}{\text{ Molar mass of }O_2}=\frac{75.0g}{32g/mole}=2.34moles$

Now we have to calculate the limiting and excess reagent.

The balanced chemical reaction is,

$C_3H_8+5O_2\rightarrow 3CO_2+4H_2O$

From the balanced reaction we conclude that

As, 5 mole of $O_2$ react with 1 mole of $C_3H_8$

So, 2.34 moles of $O_2$ react with $\frac{2.34}{5}\times 1=0.468$ moles of $C_3H_8$

From this we conclude that, $C_3H_8$ is an excess reagent because the given moles are greater than the required moles and $O_2$ is a limiting reagent and it limits the formation of product.

Therefore, the limiting reactant is $O_2$

Define physical change and chemical change. State which type of change occurs in each of the following statements:

Ad libitum [116K]

A physical change is when a substance experiences a change in its physical characteristics.

For instance, cutting a diamond or a piece of glass

A chemical transformation is one in which one or more new compounds are created.

Iron rusting, for instance.

Both reversible and irreversible physical change are possible.

On the other hand, chemical change is a change that can never be reversed.

a) Electrolysis of molten MgCl2 involves chemical change since new materials are created and MgCl2 cannot be recovered.

The process of electrolysis involves passing an electric current through a substance to cause a chemical change.
