Answer:

146 g

Explanation:

Step 1. Calculate the <em>molar mass</em> of NaNO₃

Na =                    22.99

  N =                     14.01

3O = 3 × 16.00 = 48.00

               Total = 85.00 g/mol

Step 2. Calculate the <em>mass</em>  of NaNO₃

Mass of NaNO₃ = 1.72 × 85.00/1

Mass of NaNO₃ = 146 g

Answer:

146.2 g

Explanation:

What is the mass if 1.72 moles of sodium nitrate

The formula of sodium nitrate is NaNO3. First, we need to find the molar mass which is the sum of all atomic masses in the compound, in this case the atomic masses are:

Na = 22.99 g/mol

N = 14.01 g/mol

O = 16.00 g/mol

As we have 1 atom of Na, 1 atom of N and 3 atoms of O the formula to calculate the molar mass of sodium nitrate is:

Molar mass NaNO3 = 1( Na atomic mass) + 1(N atomic mass) + 3(O atomic mass)

Molar mass NaNO3 = 1(22.99 g/mol) + 1(14.01 g/mol) + 3(16.00 g/mol) = 85.00 g/mol

That is to say that a mole of sodium nitrate has a mass of 85.00 g

Then, by a rule of three we have:

1 mole NaNO3        ----- 85.00 g

1.72 moles NaNO3 -----     x

x = \frac{(1.72 moles)(85.00g)}{1 mole} = 146.2 g

So, the mass of 1.72 moles of sodium nitrate is 146.2 g

The balanced equation for combustion in an acetylene torch is shown below: 2C2H2 + 5O2 → 4CO2 + 2H2O The acetylene tank contains
andriy [413]

Answer: 67.2 moles

Explanation: 2C_2H5+5O_2\rightarrow 4CO_2+2H_2O

According to the given balanced equation, 2 moles of acetylene C_2H_2 combine with 5 moles of oxygen O_2  to produce 4 moles of carbon dioxide CO_2.

Thus if 2 moles of acetylene C_2H_2 combine with = 5 moles of oxygen O_2

35 moles of acetylene C_2H_2 combine with=\frac{5}{2}\times {35}=87.5 moles of oxygen O_2

But as only 84 moles of oxygen are available, acetylene is not a limiting reagent.

5 moles of oxygen O_2 reacts with = 2 moles of acetylene C_2H_2

84 moles of oxygen O_2 reacts with=\frac{2}{5}\times {84}=33.6 moles of acetylene C_2H_2

Thus Oxygen is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of products. Acetylene is excess reagent as it is present in excess.

2 moles of acetylene C_2H_2  produce= 4 moles of carbon dioxide CO_2.

33.6 moles of acetylene C_2H_2 produce=\frac{4}{2}\times {33.6}=67.2 moles of of carbon dioxide CO_2.
