Answer:

- Iron (III) oxide is the limiting reactant.

- m_{Al_2O_3}=319.9gAl_2O_3

- m_{Fe}=350.4gFe

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, we consider the following reaction:

2Al + Fe_2O_3 \rightarrow Al_2O_3 +2Fe

Thus, for identifying the limiting reactant we should compute the available  moles of aluminium in 268 g:

n_{Al}=268gAl*\frac{1molAl}{26.98gAl} =9.93molAl

Next, we compute the moles of aluminium that are consumed by 501 grams of iron (III) oxide via their 2:1 molar ratio:

n_{Al}^{consumed}=501gFe_2O_3*\frac{1molFe_2O_3}{159.69gFe_2O_30}*\frac{2molAl}{1molFe_2O_3}=6.27molAl

Thus, we notice there are less consumed moles of aluminium than available, for that reason, it is in excess; therefore, the iron (III) oxide is the limiting reactant.

Moreover, the theoretical mass of aluminium oxide is:

m_{Al_2O_3}=6.27molAl*\frac{1molAl_2O_3}{2molAl} *\frac{101.96gAl_2O_3}{1molAl_2O_3} =319.9gAl_2O_3

And the theoretical mass of iron is:

m_{Fe}=6.27molAl*\frac{2molFe}{2molAl} *\frac{55.845 gFe}{1molFe} =350.4gFe

Best regards.

A container of gas has a volume of 3.5 L and a pressure of 0.8 atm. Assuming the temperature remains constant, what volume of ga
strojnjashka [21]

Answer:

The correct answer is option A.

Explanation:

Initial volume of the gas =V_1=3.5 L

Final volume of the gas = V_2=?

Initial pressure of the gas =P_1=0.8 atm

Final volume of the gas = P_2=0.5 atm

Using Boyle's law:

P_1V_1=P_2V_2

0.8 atm \times 3.5 L=0.5 atm\times V_2

V_2=5.6 L

Hence,the correct answer is option A.

Strontium, a group 2 element with an electron configuration of 1s^2 2s^2 2p^6 3s^2 3p^6 4s^2 3d^10 4p^6 5s^2 , will form a _____
amid [387]

Answer:

Strontium, a group 2 element with an electron configuration of 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s² 3d¹⁰ 4p⁶ 5s² , will form a +2 ion in a chemical bond.

Explanation:

An ionic bond is produced between metallic and non-metallic atoms, where electrons are completely transferred from one atom to another. During this process, one atom loses electrons and another one gains them, forming ions. Usually, the metal gives up its electrons forming a cation to the nonmetal element, which forms an anion.

So an ion is an atom or group of atoms that have an electric charge. A cation is an ion that has a positive charge.

The alkali metals in the earth (Elements IIA) lose two electrons to form a 2+ cation. Strontium is an alkali metal that loses the two electrons belonging to 5s², forming the +2 ion.

If a system performs 147 kJ of work while receiving 47 kJ of heat, what is change in its internal energy?
Verdich [7]

Answer:

-100 kJ

Explanation:

We can solve this problem by applying the first law of thermodynamics, which states that:

\Delta U = Q-W

where:

\Delta U is the change in internal energy of a system

Q is the heat absorbed/released by the system (it is positive if absorbed by the system, negative if released by the system)

W is the work done by the system (it is positive if done by the system, negative if done on the system)

For the system in this problem we have:

W = +147 kJ is the work done by the system

Q = +47 kJ is the heat absorbed by the system

So , its change in internal energy is:

\Delta U = +47 - (+147) =-100 kJ
