Answer:

The answer to your question is 0.79 moles of SnCl₂  

Explanation:

Data

moles of SnCl₂ = ?

mass of FeCl₃ = 85.3 g

excess Sn

Balanced chemical reaction

                 2 FeCl₃  +  3 Sn  ⇒   3 SnCl₂  +  2 Fe

Process

1.- Convert the mass of FeCl₃ to moles

Molar mass of FeCl₃ = 56 + (35.5 x 3)

                                  = 56 + 106.5

                                  = 162.5 g

Use proportions to find the moles of FeCl₃

                       162.5 g -------------------- 1 mol

                         85.3 g -------------------  x

                         x = (85.3 x 1) / 162.5

                         x = 0.525 moles

2.- Find the number of moles SnCl₂

                     2 moles of FeCl₃ ----------------- 3 moles of SnCl₂

                     0.525 moles        ----------------- x

                     x = (0.525 x 3) / 2

                    x = 0.79 moles of SnCl₂

What are the ionic bonds
zhuklara [117]

Explanation:

Ionic bonds are bonds formed as a result of the electrostatic attraction between two species.

  • This bond type is an interatomic bond.
  • It forms when two specie with a large electronegative difference between them combines.
  • This is usually a metal and a non-metal.
  • The metal loses its valence electrons and becomes positively charged.
  • The non-metal gains the electron and becomes negatively charged.
  • An electrostatic attraction between the two specie leads to the formation of an ionic bond.
  • They are solids with a high melting point.
  • They are soluble in polar solvents.

Will mark brainliest
poizon [28]

Explanation:

solid, liquids and gases are all made up of atoms and molecules

contrast

solids have a definite shape, liquids takes the shape of the container that contains it while gases do not have a shape

solids move about their mean positions, liquids move more freely while gases move in random motion

solids cannot be easily compressed, liquids can be compressed while gases can be easily compressed

What is the formula for germicide that is sufficient to kill blood-borne pathogens?
Colt1911 [192]
It is 1 ounce. Bloodborne Pathogens can be transmitted when blood or body liquid from a tainted individual enters someone else's body by means of needle-sticks, human chomps, cuts, scraped areas, or through mucous films. Likewise, semen, vaginal discharges and salivation in dental methods are considered conceivably tainted body liquids.

What is one example of an everyday molecule?
Tamiku [17]

Answer:

Hydrogen

Explanation:

Just to provide some background, an element is a pure substance consisting of only one type of atom. An atom is the smallest constituent of matter. All elements are comprised of a single type of atom (e.g., gold is composed of gold atoms, helium of helium atoms, phosphorus phosphorus, and so on).

A molecule is a group of two or more atoms. They can be the same atom (homonuclear), such as or different atoms (heteronuclear).

Some examples of homonuclear molecules include:

Hydrogen  (H2)  

Nitrogen  (N2)  

Phosphorus  (P4)  

Some examples of heteronuclear molecules include:

Carbon dioxide  (CO2)  

Sulfuric acid  (H2SO4)  

Methane  (CH4)
