Answer:

2.84g

Explanation:

Step 1:

The balanced equation for the reaction. This is given below:

2SO2 + O2 —> 2SO3

Step 2:

Determination of the mass of O2 that reacted and the mass of SO3 produced from the balanced equation.

This is illustrated below:

Molar mass of O2 = 16x2 = 32g/mol

Mass of O2 from the balanced equation = 1 x 32 = 32g

Molar mass of SO3 = 32 + (16x3) = 80g/mol

Mass of SO3 from the balanced equation = 2 x 80 = 160g

Summary:

From the balanced equation above,

32g of O2 reacted to produce 160g of SO3.

Step 3:

Determination of the mass of O2 needed to produce 14.2g of SO3.

This can be achieved as shown below:

From the balanced equation above,

32g of O2 reacted to produce 160g of SO3.

Therefore, Xg of O2 will react to produce 14.2g of SO3 i.e

Xg of O2 = (32 x 14.2)/160

Xg of O2 = 2.84g

Therefore, 2.84g of O2 is needed to produce 14.2g of SO3.

How many liters of a 1.5 M solution can you make if you have .50 mol of KCl?
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 0.33 liters

Explanation:

Data

Volume = ?

Molarity = 1.5 M

number of moles = 0.5

Formula

Molarity = \frac{number of moles }{volume}

Solve for V

Volume = \frac{number of moles}{molarity}

Substitution

Volume = \frac{0.5}{1.5}

Simplification and result

       Volume = 0.33 l

damaskus [11]

Answer: Physical change : tearing of paper, fixing of wtaer

Chemical change:  rusting of iron ,  electrolysis of water​, Rancidification

Explanation:

Physical change is a change in which there is no rearrangement of atoms and thus no new substance is formed. There is only change in physical state of the substance.

Example:  tearing of paper, fixing of wtaer

Chemical change is a change in which there is rearrangement of atoms and thus new substance is formed. There may or may not be a change in physical state.

Example: rusting of iron ,  electrolysis of water​, Rancidification
