<u>Answer:</u> The mass of potassium sulfate that can be produced is 73.88 grams

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}     .....(1)

  • <u>For KOH:</u>

Given mass of KOH = 23.8 g

Molar mass of KOH = 56.1 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Moles of KOH}=\frac{23.8g}{56.1g/mol}=0.424mol

The chemical equation for the reaction of KOH and potassium hydrogen sulfate follows:

KHSO_4+KOH\rightarrow K_2SO_4+H_2O

As, potassium hydrogen sulfate is present in excess. It is considered as an excess reagent.

KOH is considered as a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of product.

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of KOH produces 1 mole of potassium sulfate

So, 0.424 moles of KOH will produce = \frac{1}{1}\times 0.424=0.424moles of potassium sulfate

Now, calculating the mass of potassium sulfate from equation 1, we get:

Molar mass of potassium sulfate = 174.26 g/mol

Moles of potassium sulfate = 0.424 moles

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

0.424mol=\frac{\text{Mass of potassium sulfate}}{174.26g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of potassium sulfate}=(0.424mol\times 174.26g/mol)=73.88g

Hence, the mass of potassium sulfate that can be produced is 73.88 grams

Hydrides are compounds made up of hydrogen and metal. Why ammonia has the highest boiling point among the hydrides of elements i
RoseWind [281]
The correct option is D.
The hydrogen atoms that are attached to the nitrogen atom in the ammonia molecule are capable of forming hydrogen bond. The hydrogen bond that exist in the ammonia molecule is the reason why it shows higher boiling point compare to the other hydrides. Hydrogen bond occur in ammonia because ammonia is one of the most electronegative elements.

When 33 g of CaO and 10 g of H2O react, how many grams of calcium hydroxide would you expect to be produced* Explain your answer
MrMuchimi

Answer:

41.44 g

Explanation:

First of all, we must put down the equation of the reaction;

CaO + H2O ----->Ca(OH)2

Number of moles of CaO = 33g/56 g/mol = 0.59 moles

Number of moles of H20 = 10g/18 g/mol = 0.56 moles

Since the reaction is in 1:1 mole ration, H2O is the limiting reactant

Hence;

mass of Ca(OH)2 produced = 0.56 moles * 74 g/mol = 41.44 g
