In class, students were given the following problem: "Aluminum satellite dishes resist corrosion because aluminum reacts with ox

ygen gas to form a coating of aluminum oxide (Al2O3). What is the mass of Al2O3?"
a) Sally solved the problem by first finding the molar mass of aluminum oxide. She calculated the molar mass of Al2O3 as 43.0 g/mol. This is not the correct molar mass however. What did sally do wrong?

b) After finding the molar mass of Al2O3, Jacob set up the following conversion. (I'll add a pic)

Is this the correct set up for the problem?

Hello! 

the correct setup is shown at bottom of your question

we get

total moles*(1/102.0 g/mol)= total grams Al2O3

hope this helps. any questions please ask. thank you kindly

Use the drop-down menu to complete the statement. The atoms in a ... have a definite volume, but move quickly enough to overcome
finlep [7]

Answer:

Luiquid

Explanation:

The atoms in a liquid state of matter have a definite volume, eventhough they acquire the shape of the container that contains them, the volume will always be the same, while in a solid the shape and volume will remain constant, on the other hand for a gas, the substance will fill the container where it is, having different volumes.

Empirical formula of a compound composed of 32.1 g potassium (k) and 6.57 g oxygen (o)?
tester [92]

The empirical formula is K₂O.

The empirical formula is the <em>simplest whole-number ratio</em> of atoms in a compound.

The <em>ratio of atom</em>s is the same as the <em>ratio of moles</em>.

So, our job is to calculate the <em>molar ratio</em> of K to O.

Step 1. Calculate the <em>moles of each element </em>

Moles of K = 32.1 g K × (1 mol K/(39.10 g K =) = 0.8210 mol K

Moles of O = 6.57 g O × (1 mol O/16.00 g O) = 0.4106 mol 0

Step 2. Calculate the <em>molar ratio of each elemen</em>t

Divide each number by the smallest number of moles and round off to an integer

K:O = 0.8210:0.4106 = 1.999:1 ≈ 2:1

Step 3: Write the <em>empirical formula </em>

EF = K₂O

Describe the formation of a hydrogen bond and explain how it differs from a covalent or ionic bond
vlada-n [284]

Answers:

                  Hydrogen bond is formed when positive end of one molecule attracted negative end of other molecule. The concept is similar to magnetic attraction where opposite poles attract each other.

Explanation:

                   While understanding hydrogen bond, two terms are important, one is electronegativity (tendency of atoms to attract electrons towards itself) and other is dipole (separation of positive and negative charge in a molecule). Hydrogen bond is always formed between hydrogen atom and other atoms having electronegativity different than hydrogen.

Differ from Ionic and Covalent Bonds:

                        Hydrogen bond is weaker than ionic and covalent bond. Ionic and covalent bonds are intramolecular (within the molecule) whereas hydrogen bond is intermolecular (between molecules).

Example:

       Formation of hydrogen bonding in water.

The exploration of the mid-cayman rise is intended to discover _______. a. what life may have been like before the evolution of
Soloha48 [4]

The exploration of the mid-cayman rise is intended to discover that what life may have been like before the evolution of photosynthesis.

<h3>What is mid - cayman rise?</h3>

Mid - cayman rise is an area or era where only some amount of light is coming but still existence of life is present there.

As we know that plants make their own food by the process called photosynthesis in the presence of light, but this is not the scenario for all the time. Before the discovery of photosynthesis plants also prepared their own food.

Hence, option (a) is correct.
