On average, Earth’s crust contains about 8.1% aluminum by mass. If a standard 12-ounce soft drink can contains approximately 15

g of aluminum, how many cans could be made from 1 ton of the Earth’s crust?

8 0

Answer:

5400 cans

Explanation:

First we convert the total weight, 1 ton, to grams:

1ton=1x10^{6}g

Now we need to know the mass of aluminum:

m_{Al}=\frac{10^{6}*8.1}{100} =81000g

Now we make the relation between the mass of aluminum in 1 ton of the earth's crust and the mass of aluminum per can:

n=\frac{81000g}{15g/can} =5400cans

What is the partial pressure of 0.50 mol Ne gas combined with 1.20 mol Kr gas at a final pressure of 730 torr?
WARRIOR [948]
  The partial pressure  of 0.50  Ne  gas    is   214.71  torr


      calculation

 the partial   pressure  of Ne  = moles  of Ne/total moles  x  final  pressure

 
find  the total  moles  of the air mixture  

that is moles of   Ne  +  moles of K=  0.50 + 1.20  =  1.70 moles
  

The partial  pressure  is therefore =   0.50 /1.70  x  730  =  214.71  torr

In the reaction C + O2 → CO2, 18 g of carbon react with oxygen to produce 72 g of carbon dioxide. What mass of oxygen would be n
artcher [175]
Stoichiomety:

1 moles of C + 1 mol of O2 = 1 mol of CO2

multiply each # of moles times the atomic molar mass of the compund to find the relation is weights

Atomic or molar weights:

C: 12 g/mol
O2: 2 * 16 g/mol = 32 g/mol
CO2 = 12 g/mol + 2* 16 g/mol = 44 g/mol

Stoichiometry:

12 g of C react with 32 g of O2 to produce 44 g of CO2

Then 18 g of C will react with: 18 * 32/ 12 g of Oxygen = 48 g of Oxygen

And the result will be 12 g of C + 48 g of O2 = 60 g of CO2.

You cannot obtain 72 g of CO2 from 18 g of C.

May be they just pretended that you use the law of consrvation of mass and say that you need 72 g - 18g = 54 g. But it violates the proportion of C and O2 in the CO2 and is not possible.
