What is the energy change if 84.0 g of calcium oxide (CaO) reacts with excess water in the following reaction?
pochemuha
   The energy change  if 84.0 g   of CaO  react  with  excess  water is  98KJ of heat is released.

calculation
heat  =  number of moles  x  delta H

delta H = - 65.2  Kj/mol

first find the number of  moles  of  CaO reacted

moles = mass/molar mass
the molar mass  of CaO =  40 +  16=  56 g/mol
mass = 84 g
moles therefore = 84 g/56 g/mol =1.5 moles

Heat is therefore =  1.5 moles  x -65.2 = - 97.8 Kj = -98 Kj

  since  sign is  negative  the   energy  is released

Find mass of 3 moles of water​
EleoNora [17]

Answer:

54 g

Explanation:

1 mole of water = H2O

mass of 1 mole of H2O= mass of h2 + mass of o

= 2× mass of h +mass of o

= 2×1+16 =18 g

1 mole of water = 18g

3moles of water = 18×3g= 54g

The fuel used in many disposable lighters is liquid butane, C4H10. Butane has a molecular weight of 58.1 grams in one mole. How
labwork [276]

First convert grams to moles using molar mass of butane that is 58.1 g

3.50g C4H10 x (1 mol C4H10)/(58.1g C4H10) = 0.06024 mol C4H10 <span>

<span>Now convert moles to molecules by using Avogadro’s number

0.06024 mol C4H10 x (6.022x10^23 molecules C4H10)/(1 mol C4H10) = 3.627x10^22 molecules C4H10 

And there are 4 carbon atoms in 1 molecule of butane, so use the following ratio: 

3.627 x 10^22 molecules C4H10 x (4 atoms C)/(1 molecule C4H10) 
<span>= 1.45 x 10^23 atoms of carbon are present</span></span></span>

Will mark brainliest!!
just olya [345]

Answer:

magnesium= +2

aluminum= +3

phosphorous= -3

lithium= +1

fluorine= -1

Explanation:

As fluorine having seven valance electrons in its outer most shell with atomic number nine. And for completing its outer most shell it needs one more electron that is why it form ion of -1 value.

Now  Aluminum has three electrons in its outer most shell with atomic number 13. So it need to lose these three electrons in order to be in stable state that is why it have ion in +3 state.

Same rule apply for other elements too.
