Answer:

71.372 g or 0.7 moles

Explanation:

We are given;

  • Moles of Aluminium is 1.40 mol
  • Moles of Oxygen 1.35 mol

We are required to determine the theoretical yield of Aluminium oxide

The equation for the reaction between Aluminium and Oxygen is given by;

4Al(s) + 3O₂(g) → 2Al₂O₃(s)

From the equation 4 moles Al reacts with 3 moles of oxygen to yield 2 moles of Aluminium oxide.

Therefore;

1.4 moles of Al will require 1.05 moles (1.4 × 3/4) of oxygen

1.35 moles of Oxygen will require 1.8 moles (1.35 × 4/3) of Aluminium

Therefore, Aluminium is the rate limiting reagent in the reaction while Oxygen is the excess reactant.

4 moles of aluminium reacts to generate 2 moles aluminium oxide.

Therefore;

Mole ratio Al : Al₂O₃ is 4 : 2

Thus;

Moles of Al₂O₃ = Moles of Al × 0.5

                         = 1.4 moles × 0.5

                         = 0.7 moles

But; 1 mole of Al₂O₃ = 101.96 g/mol

Thus;

Theoretical mass of Al₂O₃ = 0.7 moles × 101.96 g/mol

                                            = 71.372 g

Alex Ar [27]

Answer:

NiS insoluble

Mg₃(PO₄)₂ insoluble

Li₂CO₃ soluble

NH₄Cl soluble

C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁ molecules

Explanation:

<em>Predict whether the following compounds are soluble or insoluble in water.</em>

Based on the solubility rules we can say:

  • NiS: Sulfides of transition metals are highly insoluble.
  • Mg₃(PO₄)₂: All phosphates (except those with metals of Group 1) are insoluble so Mg₃(PO₄)₂ is insoluble.
  • Li₂CO₃: all salts of metals of Group 1 are soluble so Li₂CO₃ is soluble.
  • NH₄Cl: all salts of ammonium are soluble so NH₄Cl is soluble.

<em>Which of the following best describes the solute in an aqueous solution of sucrose or C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁(aq)?</em>

Sucrose is a molecular compound in which atoms are linked through covalent bonds. Thus, it does not ionize in water (is a non-electrolyte) and when it dissolves it exists as C₁₂H₂₂O₁₁ molecules.

Bf3 can be octet or not​
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

(BH3 follows the octet rule by dimerizing, as Hadi Kurniawan AR pointed out.) For H and He, an "octet" = 2 electrons. Boron does prefer to follow the octet rule, in that it likes to form borate compounds such as NaBH4. It also is happy to form compounds with elements with lone pairs.

72.0 grams of water how many miles of sodium with react with it?
Flura [38]

Answer:

\large \boxed{\text{8.00 mol}}

Explanation:

We will need a balanced chemical equation with masses, moles, and molar masses.

1. Gather all the information in one place:

Mᵣ:                  18.02

            2Na + H₂O ⟶ 2NaOH + H₂

m/g:                72.0  

2. Moles of H₂O

\text{Moles of H$_{2}$O} = \text{72.0 g H$_{2}$O} \times \dfrac{\text{1 mol H$_{2}$O}}{\text{18.02 g  H$_{2}$O}} = \text{3.996 mol H$_{2}$O}

3. Moles of Na

The molar ratio is 2 mol Na/1 mol H₂O.

\text{Moles of Na} =  \text{3.996 mol H$_{2}$O} \times \dfrac{\text{2 mol Na}}{\text{1 mol H$_{2}$O}} = \textbf{8.00 mol Na}\\\\\text{The water will react with $\large \boxed{\textbf{ 8.00 mol}}$ of Na}
