The formula tells you the proportion in mols

2 mols of Cl: 1 mol of Pt

Now use the atomic masses:

Cl: 35.5 g/mol
Pt: 195 g/mol

Then you have these equation:

[2*35.5 g Cl] / 195 g Pt = x / 500 kg Pt

Solve for x.

x = (71 g Cl / 195 g Pt) * 500 kg Pt

x = 182 Kg Cl = 182 kg Cl2.

Consider the balanced equation.
vaieri [72.5K]

The balanced chemical reaction is:

<span>N2 + 3H2 = 2NH3 </span>

 

We are given the amount of H2 being reacted. This will be our starting point.

26.3 g H2 (1 mol H2 / 2.02 g H2) 2 mol O2/3 mol H2) ( 17.04 g NH3 / 1mol NH3) = 147.90 g O2

 

Percent yield = actual yield / theoretical yield x 100

 

Percent yield = 79.0 g / 147.90 g x 100

Percent yield = 53.4%

how many formula units of CaCl2 are in 111 g CaCl2? the molar mass of calcium chloride is about 111 g/mol
d1i1m1o1n [39]

There are 6.02 × 10²³ formula units of CaCl2 in 111 g CaCl2. Details about formula units can be found below.

<h3>What is a formula unit?</h3>

Formula unit refers to the empirical formula of an ionic compound for use in stoichiometric calculations.

According to this question, there are 111g of CaCl2. The formula units can be calculated by multiplying the number of moles by Avogadro's number.

no of moles in CaCl2 = 111g ÷ 111g/mol = 1mol

Formula units of CaCl2 = 1mol × 6.02 × 10²³ = 6.02 × 10²³ formula units.

Therefore, there are 6.02 × 10²³ formula units of CaCl2 in 111 g CaCl2.

If 31.6 g of KMnO4 is dissolved in enough water to give 160 mL of solution, what is the molarity?
Zina [86]

Answer:

A. 1.25M

B. 19.98g

Explanation:

A. Data obtained from the question include the following:

Mass of KMnO4 = 31.6 g

Volume = 160 mL

Molarity =..?

We'll begin by calculating the number of mole KMnO4 in the solution. This is can be obtained as follow:

Mass of KMnO4 = 31.6 g

Molar mass of KMnO4 = 39 + 55 + (16x4) = 158g/mol

Number of mole of KMnO4 =..?

Mole = mass /Molar mass

Number of mole of KMnO4 = 31.6/158 = 0.2 mole

Now, we can obtain the molarity of the solution as follow:

Volume = 160 mL = 160/1000 = 0.16L

Mole of KMnO4 = 0.2 mole

Molarity = mole /Volume

Molarity = 0.2/0.16 = 1.25M

B. Data obtained from the question include the following:

Volume = 300mL

Molarity = 0.74 M

Mass of H2C2O4 =..?

First, we shall determine the number of mole H2C2O4. This is illustrated below:

Volume = 300mL = 300/1000 = 0.3L

Molarity = 0.74 M

Mole of H2C2O4 =?

Mole = Molarity x Volume

Mole of H2C2O4 = 0.74 x 0.3

Mole of H2C2O4 = 0.222 mole

Now, we can easily find the mass of H2C2O4 by converting 0.222 mole to grams as shown below:

Number of mole of H2C2O4 = 0.222 mole

Molar mass of H2C2O4 = (2x1) + (12x2) + (16x4) = 2 + 24 + 64 = 90g/mol

Mass of H2C2O4 =..?

Mass = mole x molar mass

Mass of H2C2O4 = 0.222 x 90

Mass of H2C2O4 = 19.98g
