Now ,

C + O2  → CO2

According to above equation, 1 mole of carbon reacts with one mole of oxygen to produce one mole of carbon dioxide.Thus this implies that 12 g of carbon reacts with 32 g of O2 to produce 44 g of CO2.

No of moles = mass of the substance/molecular mass of the substance.

In this case 1.2 g of carbon reacts with "x "g of O2 to produce 4.4 g of CO2.

No of moles of carbon in this case = 1.2÷ 12 = 0.1 moles.

No of moles of carbon dioxide formed = 4.4÷44 =0.1 moles

Thus already discussed above, 1 mole of carbon reacts with 1 mole of oxygen to produce 1 mole of carbon dioxide. Hence to produce 0.1 mole of CO2 ,0.1 mole of carbon needs to react with 0.1 mole of oxygen.

Also number of moles of O2 = mass of O2÷ molar mass of O2

Substituting number of moles of O2 as 0.1 we get

mass of O2(x)  = Number of moles of O2 × Molar mass of O2

Mass of O2 (x) = 0.1 × 32= 3.2 g

Thus mass of 3.2 g O2 reacts with 1.2 g of CO2 to produce 4.4 g of CO2.

Answer:

b) 2.0 mol

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of Ca needed = ?

Number of moles of water present = 4.0 mol

Solution:

Chemical equation:

Ca + 2H₂O     →      Ca(OH)₂ + H₂

now we will compare the moles of Ca and H₂O .

                          H₂O        :        Ca                

                             2           :        1

                             4.0           :       1/2×4.0 = 2.0 mol

Thus, 2 moles of Ca are needed.

Calculate the mass in grams of benzophenone required to make a solution of 2.5 mmoles
kirill115 [55]

Answer:

0.46 grams (C₆H₅)₂CO

Explanation:

To find the mass of benzophenone ((C₆H₅)₂CO), you need to (1) convert mmoles to moles and then (2) convert moles to grams (via molar mass). It is important to arrange the conversions/ratios in a way that allows for the cancellation of units. The final answer should have 2 sig figs to match the sig figs of the given value (2.5 mmoles).

Molar Mass ((C₆H₅)₂CO): 13(12.011 g/mol) + 10(1.008 g/mol) + 15.998 g/mol

Molar Mass ((C₆H₅)₂CO): 182.221 g/mol

2.5 mmoles (C₆H₅)₂CO               1 mole                  182.221 g
-----------------------------------  x  ------------------------  x  -------------------  =
                                                1,000 mmoles            1 mole

=  0.46 grams (C₆H₅)₂CO
