Answer:
the stoichiometric coefficient for cobalt is 3
Explanation:
the unbalanced reaction would be
Co(NO₃)₂+ Al → Al(NO₃)₃ + Co
One way to solve is to build a system of linear equations for each element (or group as NO₃) , knowing that the number of atoms of each element is conserved.
For smaller reactions a quick way to solve it can be:
- First the Co as product and as reactant needs to have the same stoichiometric coefficient
- Then the Al as product and as reactant needs to have the same stoichiometric coefficient
- After that we look at the nitrates . There are 2 as reactants and 3 as products . Since the common multiple is 6 then multiply the reactant by 3 and the product by 2.
Finally the balanced equation will be
3 Co(NO₃)₂+ 2 Al → 2 Al(NO₃)₃ + 3 Co
then the stoichiometric coefficient for cobalt is 3
Answer:
This cannot be determined without knowing the actual mass of the objects.
Explanation:
its like trying to compare the letter A and letter B
Answer:
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Mass of CuCl₂ = 2.50g
Mass of Al = 0.50g
Unknown:
Number of moles of CuCl₂ and Al = ?
Solution:
To solve this problem, we must understand that the number of moles is a fundamental property used in stoichiometry calculations.
Number of moles = 
Molar mass of CuCl₂ = 63.6 + 2(35.5) = 134.5g/mole
Molar mass of Al = 26.98g/mole
Number of moles of CuCl₂ = 
= 0.019moles
Number of moles of Al = 
= 0.019moles
