8,486 grams. (4 sig. fig.) That's 8.486 × 10³ grams using scientific notations.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Relative atomic mass from a modern periodic table:

  • Na: 22.99;
  • S: 32.06.

Sodium is a group 1 alkali metal. It forms positive ions of charge +1.

Sulfide ion is an ion made from a single sulfur atom. Sulfur is in group 16 and is 18 - 16 = 2 electrons short of an octet. An sulfur atom would gain two electrons when it forms a sulfide ion. The charge on that ion will be -2.

Charges on the two ions balance in sodium sulfide, which is overall neutral. Two \text{Na}^{+} ions will pair up with one \text{S}^{2-} ion. This 2:1 ratio gives the formula: \text{Na}_{\bf 2}\text{S}.

{\bf2}\;\text{Na} + \text{S} \to \text{Na}_2\text{S}.

It takes two sodium atoms to form one formula unit of sodium sulfide \text{Na}_2\text{S}.

How many <em>moles</em> of sodium atoms in 5,000 grams of sodium metal?

M(\text{Na}) = 22.99\;\text{g}\cdot\text{mol}^{-1}.

n = \dfrac{m}{M} = \dfrac{5,000}{22.99} = 217.5 \;\text{mol}.

How many <em>moles</em> of sodium sulfide formula units will that 217.5 moles of Na atoms make?

In case sulfur is in excess, every two moles of Na atoms will make one formula unit of sodium sulfide. 217.5 moles of Na atoms will make 108.8 moles of sodium sulfide.

What's the mass of 108.8 moles of sodium sulfide?

Molar mass of sodium sulfide:

M(\text{Na}_2\text{S}) = {\bf 2}\;M(\text{Na}) + M(\text{S}) = 2 \times 22.33 + 32.06 = 78.04 \;\text{g}\cdot\text{mol}^{-1}.

m = n \cdot M = 108.8 \times 78.04=8.486 \times 10^{3} \;\text{g}.

What are the products of the following combustion reaction?<br><br> 2C2H2(g) + 5O2(g) →
kakasveta [241]
A combustion reaction of an  will generally produce CO2 and H20 -- carbon dioxide and water and/or an oxide

looking at the combustion material C2H2, you know that the end products will be CO2 and H20, so the question is how much of each will you get

well, look at the total amount of carbon atoms, 2 C2, which means a total of 4 carbon atoms in this reaction, since only CO2 has carbon atoms, that means there must be 4 CO2 as an end product and 4 CO2 will use up 4 of 5 O2 molecule leaving only 1 O2 molecule for the H2 reaction.

now O2 has a total of 2 oxygen molecules whereas H20 has only a single oxygen molecule, hence the end product must have 2 H20

check that the H atoms balance out on both sides

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer:

Compound A is succinic anhydride and B is methyl succinate (the monomethyl ester).

Structural Diagram is attached.

Explanation:

A.

Succinic anhydride appears as colorless needles or white crystalline solid. ... Succinic anhydride, also called dihydro-2, 5-furandione, is an organic compound with the molecular formula C4H4O3. It is the acid anhydride of succinic acid.

B.

Monomethyl succinate is a dicarboxylic acid monoester that is succinic acid in which one of the carboxy groups has been converted to its methyl ester. It is a dicarboxylic acid monoester and a hemisuccinate. ... They have the general structure RC(=O)OR', where R=fatty aliphatic tail or organyl group and R'=methyl group.
