The useful metal manganese can be extracted from the mineral rhodochrosite by a two-step process.... In the first step, manganes

e(II) carbonate and oxygen react to form manganese(IV) oxide and carbon dioxide: 2MnCO3 + O2=2MnO2 + 2CO2In the second step, manganese(IV) oxide and aluminum react to form manganese and aluminum oxidide: 3MnO2 + 4Al = 3Mn + 2Al2O3 Suppose the yield of the first step is 65.% and the yield of the second step is 80.%. Calculate the mass of manganese(II) carbonate required to make 8.0kg of manganese. Be sure your answer has a unit symbol, if needed, and is rounded to 2 significant digits.

Answer:

33 kg

Explanation:

Let's consider the two steps to obtain manganese.

Step 1: 2 MnCO₃ + O₂ = 2 MnO₂ + 2 CO₂

Step 2: 3 MnO₂ + 4 Al = 3 Mn + 2 Al₂O₃

The molar mass of Mn is 54.94 g/mol. The moles represented by 8.0 kg of Mn are:

8.0 × 10³ g × (1 mol / 54.94 g ) = 1.5 × 10² mol

In Step 2, the real yield of Mn is 1.5 × 10² mol and the percent yield is 80%. The theoretical yield is:

1.5 × 10² mol (Real) × (100 mol (Theoretical) / 80 mol (Real)) = 1.9 × 10² mol

According to Step 2, the molar ratio of Mn to MnO₂ is 3:3. The moles of MnO₂ are 3/3 × 1.9 × 10² mol = 1.9 × 10² mol

In Step 1, the real yield of MnO₂ is 1.9 × 10² mol and the percent yield is 65%. The theoretical yield is:

1.9 × 10² mol (Real) × (100 mol (Theoretical) / 65 mol (Real)) = 2.9 × 10² mol

According to Step 1, the molar ratio of MnO₂ to MnCO₃ is 2:2. The moles of MnCO₃ are 2/2 × 2.9 × 10² mol = 2.9 × 10² mol

The molar mass of MnCO₃ is 114.95 g/mol. The mass of MnCO₃ represented by 2.9 × 10² mol is:

2.9 × 10² mol × (114.95 g/mol) = 3.3 × 10⁴ g = 33 kg

Answer : The mass of MnCO_3 required are, 35 kg

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the mass of MnO_2.

The first step balanced chemical reaction is:

2MnCO_3+O_2\rightarrow 2MnO_2+2CO_2

Molar mass of MnCO_3 = 115 g/mole

Molar mass of MnO_2 = 87 g/mole

Let the mass of MnCO_3 be, 'x' grams.

From the balanced reaction, we conclude that

As, (2\times 115)g of MnCO_3 react to give (2\times 87)g of MnO_2

So, xg of MnCO_3 react to give \frac{(2\times 87)g}{(2\times 115)g}\times x=0.757xg of MnO_2

And as we are given that the yield produced from the first step is, 65 % that means,

60\% \text{ of }0.757xg=\frac{60}{100}\times 0.757x=0.4542xg

The mass of MnO_2 obtained = 0.4542x g

Now we have to calculate the mass of Mn.

The second step balanced chemical reaction is:

3MnO_2+4Al\rightarrow 3Mn+2Al_2O_3

Molar mass of MnO_2 = 87 g/mole

Molar mass of Mn = 55 g/mole

From the balanced reaction, we conclude that

As, (3\times 87)g of MnO_2 react to give (3\times 55)g of Mn

So, 0.4542xg of MnO_2 react to give \frac{(3\times 55)g}{(3\times 87)g}\times 0.4542x=0.287xg of Mn

And as we are given that the yield produced from the second step is, 80 % that means,

80\% \text{ of }0.287xg=\frac{80}{100}\times 0.287x=0.2296xg

The mass of Mn obtained = 0.2296x g

The given mass of Mn = 8.0 kg = 8000 g     (1 kg = 1000 g)

So, 0.2296x = 8000

x = 34843.20 g = 34.84 kg = 35 kg

Therefore, the mass of MnCO_3 required are, 35 kg

Answer:

It is because the object that is charged attracts the uncharged because it is giving electrons and passing it on to the object. As shown in the image the balloon is attracting the paper that is not charged. Actually telling,the charged object will cause the uncharged object to become charged, with a positive charge on one side and a negative charge on the other side. This process is called induction.
