Answer:

a) 78.19 grams H2O

b) 14.3 grams acetylene

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Molar mass of acetylene = 26.04 g/mol

Molar mass of H2O = 18.02 g/mol

Step 2: The balanced equation

2C2H2 + 5O2 → 4CO2 + 2H2O

Step 3: a. How many grams of water can form if 113g of acetylene is burned?

Calculate moles of acetylene:

Moles = mass / molar mass

Moles = 113.0 grams / 26.04 g/mol

Moles = 4.339 moles

calculate moles of H2O

For 2 moles acetylene we need 5 moles O2 to produce 4 moles CO2 and 2 moles H2O

For 4.339 moles of acetylene we'll have 4.339 moles H2O

Calculate mass of H2O

Mass H2O = 4.339 moles * 18.02 g/mol

Mass H2O = 78.19 grams H2O

b. How many grams of acetylene react if 1.10 mol of CO2 are produced?

For 2 moles acetylene we need 5 moles O2 to produce 4 moles CO2 and 2 moles H2O

For 1.10 mol CO2 we need 1.10/2 = 0.55 moles of acetylene

Mass acetylene = 0.55 moles * 26.04 g/mol

Mass acetylene = 14.3 grams acetylene

The answer to your question is below

Explanation:

Reaction

                            C₂H₂ (g) + O₂(g)   ⇒   CO₂ (g)   +  H₂O (g)

                            Reactants         Elements         Reactants

                                    2                       C                       1

                                    2                       H                       2

                                    2                       O                       3

This reaction is unbalance

<u>Reaction balanced</u>

                        <u>   </u><u>2</u><u>C₂H₂ (g) +   </u><u>5</u><u>O₂(g)   ⇒   </u><u>4</u><u>CO₂ (g)   +  </u><u>2</u><u>H₂O (g)</u>

                            Reactants         Elements         Reactants

                                    4                       C                       4

                                    4                       H                       4

                                   10                       O                      10

Now, the reaction is balanced

a) Calculate the molecular mass of acetylene and water

Acetylene = (12 x 2) + (2) = 26 g

Water = (1 x 2) + (1 x 16) = 18 g

                           2(26) g of Acetylene ---------------  2(18) g of Water

                               113 g  of Acetylene --------------   x

                                x = (113 x (2 x 18)) / 2(26)

                                x = 4068 / 52

                             <u> </u>  x = 78. 2 g of water

b)                2 moles of Acetylene ------------  4 moles of carbon dioxide

                   x moles of acetylene ------------  1.10 moles of carbon dioxide

                         x = (1.10 x 2) / 4

                        x = 0.55 moles of acetylene

How much time is needed to deposit 1.0 g of chromium metal from an aqueous solution of crcl3 using a current of 1.5 a?
PSYCHO15rus [73]
The metal component of the given compound, CrCl3, is chromium. The number of moles per 1 g of chromium is calculated through the equation below,

        n = (1 g Cr)(1 mol Cr/51.996 g Cr)
              n = 0.0192 mol Cr(3 electrons/1 mol Cr) 
                n = 0.0577 e-

Determine the number in charge by multiplying with Faraday's constant,

      C = (0.0577 mol Cr)((1 F/1 mol e-)(96485 C/ 1F)
             C = 5,566.87 C

Then, calculate time by dividing the charge with the current,

     t = 5566.87 C/1.5 A 
     t = 3711.25 minutes
     t = 61.84 hours

Show with dot and cross diagram of the formation of ions in the reaction of Fluorine with sodium ions.
Kipish [7]

Answer:

Electron dot diagram is attached below

Explanation:

Sodium is alkali metal and present in group one. It has one valence electron. All alkali metal form salt when react with halogens.

Sodium loses its one electron to get stable.  While all halogens have seven valence electrons they need only one electron to get stable electronic configuration.

When alkali metals such as sodium react with halogen fluorine it loses its one valence electron which is accepted by fluorine and ionic bond is formed. The compound formed is called sodium fluoride.

Na + F   →   NaF

In cross and dot diagram electrons of one atom are shown as dots while other atom shown as cross to distinguish.

Electron dot diagram is attached below.
