Answer:

Stoichiometric compounds are composed of whole number ratios of constituent atoms.

Explanation:

In accordance with Dalton's law, when atoms combine to form compounds, they do so in simple whole number ratios.

Hydrocarbons compounds are compounds of hydrogen and carbon. The hydrogen and carbon usually combine in simple whole number ratios. The ratio of hydrogen atoms to carbon atoms in organic compounds is never fractional.

Combination of 6 hydrogen atoms and 2.5 carbon atoms do not represent simple whole number ratio of combination of constituent atoms hence it is not possible to make such a compound. There can never be a hydrocarbon containing the said ratio of hydrogen to carbon atoms.

A method used by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for determining the concentration of ozone in air is to pass the

baherus [9]

Answer: 1. $9.08\times 10^{-6}$ moles

2. 90 mg

Explanation:

$O_3(g)+2NaI(aq)+H_2O(l) \rightarrow O_2(g)+I_2(s)+2NaOH(aq)$

According to stoichiometry:

1 mole of ozone is removed by 2 moles of sodium iodide.

Thus $4.54 \times 10^{-6}$ moles of ozone is removed by = $\frac{2}{1}\times 4.54 \times 10^{-6}=9.08\times 10^{-6}$ moles of sodium iodide.

Thus $9.08\times 10^{-6}$ moles of sodium iodide are needed to remove $4.54\times 10^{-6}$ moles of $O_3$

2. $\text{Number of moles of ozone}=\frac{0.01331g}{48g/mol}=0.0003moles$

According to stoichiometry:

1 mole of ozone is removed by 2 moles of sodium iodide.

Thus 0.0003 moles of ozone is removed by = $\frac{2}{1}\times 0.0003=0.0006$ moles of sodium iodide.

Mass of sodium iodide= $moles\times {\text {molar mass}}=0.0006\times 150g/mol=0.09g=90mg$ (1g=1000mg)

Thus 90 mg of sodium iodide are needed to remove 13.31 mg of $O_3$ .
