When balancing a chemical equation:

Chemistry
1 answer:
PolarNik [594]4 years ago
3 0

Answer: There must be the same number of atoms of each element on both sides of the equation.

Explanation: This is the only way the equations will be balanced. Adding the coefficients to see if they are equal will not guarantee that the equations are balanced becuase coefficients can be turned into subscripts.

Please HELP! Use the following Equations to answer the problem: CH3OH + O2 —> CO2 + H2O
snow_lady [41]

Answer:

The answer to your question is below

Explanation:

1)

Balanced chemical reaction

              2CH₃OH  + 3O₂  ⇒    2 CO₂  +  4H₂O

          Reactant            Element         Product

                2                         C                    2

                8                         H                    8

                8                         O                    8        

Molar mass of CH₃OH = 2[12 + 16 + 4]

                                     = 2[32]

                                     = 64 g

Molar mass of O₂ = 3[16 x 2] = 96 g

Theoretical proportion CH₃OH/O₂ = 64 g/96g = 0.67

Experimental proportion CH₃OH/O₂ = 60/48 = 1.25

Conclusion

The limiting reactant is O₂ because the Experimental proportion was higher than the theoretical proportion

2)

Balanced chemical reaction

                         S₈  +  12O₂  ⇒    8SO₃

             Reactant     Elements     Products

                    8                  S                8

                   24                 O              24

Molar mass of S₈ = 32 x 8 = 256 g

Molar mass of O₂ = 12 x 32 = 384 g

Theoretical proportion S₈ / O₂ = 256 / 384

                                                  = 0.67

Experimental proportion S₈ / O₂ = 40 / 35

                                                     = 1.14

Conclusion

The limiting reactant is O₂ because the experimental proportion was lower than the theoretical proportion.

How many moles of Ba(NO3)2 are there in 0.25 L of a 2.00 M Ba(NO3)2 solution?
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer : The number of moles of Ba(NO_3)_2 are 0.50 moles.

Solution : Given,

Volume solution = 0.25 L

Molarity of solution = 2.00 mole/L

Molarity : It is defined as the number of moles of solute present in one liter of solution.

Formula used :

Molarity=\frac{\text{ Number of moles of solute}}{\text{ Volume of solution}}

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get number of moles.

2.00mole/L=\frac{\text{ number of moles of }Ba(NO_3)_2}{0.25L}

By rearranging the term,

Number of moles of Ba(NO_3)_2 = 0.50 moles

Therefore, 0.50 moles of Ba(NO_3)_2 are there in the solution.

How many CO grans are produced from 1.80 mol of sulfur dioxide2
m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

A mol (approximately)represents the number 6.02 X 10^^23. Mols become useful when we learn that, for any element on the periodic table, 6.02 X 10^^23 atoms of that element have a mass equal to the atomic mass in grams. So, on the periodic table carbon has an atomic mass of 12.011. That means: 12.011 grams of carbon is made up of 6.02 X 10^^23 atoms.

The above question is tricky.

If the question considers 1 molecule of SO2 as a particle, then the answer is 1.80 * 6.02 X 10^^23

If the question considers the S as one particle, and the O2 as 2 more particles, then the answer is: 3 * 1.8 * 6.02 X 10^^23.
