<span>It is true that energy efficient dishwasher is a water and energy saver than washing dishes by hand. A star-rated dishwasher uses 4 gallons of water in each cycle compare to a kitchen faucets who pumps out 2.5 gallons of water per minute. To conserve water, the accumulated dishes and cookware must be stack properly in a dishwasher before running a cycle. As to conservation of energy, people tend to use warm water to wash the dishes by hand and heating of water cost much, while in a dishwasher, energy-saving tips such as running a light cycle and turning off heating drying option will mark down your energy consumption. Therefore, the use of dishwasher is a much greener idea. </span>

Convert 1.39 x 10^24 atoms of carbon to moles of carbon

Nimfa-mama [501]

If 1mol ------- is ----------- 6,02×10²³
so x ------- is ----------- 1,39×10²⁴

$x=\frac{1,39*10^{24}*1mol}{6,02*10^{23}}\approx2,31mol$

Find the density if the volume is 15 mL and the mass is 8.6 g. (5 pts)

allsm [11]

Answer:

$\large \boxed{\text{0.57 g/mL; 3.7 mL; 6.6 g; 0.366 g/mL}}$

Explanation:

1. Density from mass and volume

$\text{Density} = \dfrac{\text{mass}}{\text{volume}}\\\\\rho = \dfrac{m}{V}\\\\\rho = \dfrac{\text{8.6 g}}{\text{15 mL}} = \text{0.57 g/mL}\\\text{The density is $\large \boxed{\textbf{0.57 g/mL}}$}$

2. Volume from density and mass

$V = \text{9.7 g}\times\dfrac{\text{1 mL}}{\text{2.6 g}} = \text{3.7 mL}\\\\\text{The volume is $\large \boxed{\textbf{3.7 mL}}$}$

3. Mass from density and volume

$\text{Mass} = \text{4.1 cm}^{3} \times \dfrac{\text{1.6 g}}{\text{1 cm}^{3}} = \textbf{6.6 g}\\\\\text{The mass is $\large \boxed{\textbf{6.6 g}}$}$

4. Density by displacement

Volume of water + object = 24.6 mL

Volume of water =<u> 12.8 mL</u>

Volume of object = 11.8 mL

$\rho = \dfrac{\text{4.3 g}}{\text{11.8 mL}} = \text{0.36 g/mL}\\\text{The density is $\large \boxed{\textbf{0.36 g/mL}}$}$

How many moles of O2 are required to react with 6.6 moles of H2?

Bingel [31]

<u>Answer: </u>

<u>For 1:</u> 3.3 moles of oxygen gas is required.

<u>For 2:</u> 14 moles of hydrogen gas is required.

<u>For 3:</u> 1.5 moles of oxygen gas is required.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The chemical reaction of oxygen and hydrogen to form water follows:

$O_2+2H_2\rightarrow 2H_2O$

<u>For 1:</u> When 6.6 moles of $H_2$ is reacted.

By Stoichiometry of the above reaction:

2 moles of hydrogen gas reacts with 1 mole of oxygen gas.

So, 6.6 moles of hydrogen gas will react with = $\frac{1}{2}\times 6.6=3.3mol$ of oxygen gas.

Hence, 3.3 moles of oxygen gas is required.

<u>For 2:</u> When 7.0 moles of $O_2$ is reacted.

By Stoichiometry of the above reaction:

1 mole of oxygen gas reacts with 2 moles of hydrogen gas.

So, 7 moles of oxygen gas will react with = $\frac{2}{1}\times 7=14mol$ of hydrogen gas.

Hence, 14 moles of hydrogen gas is required.

<u>For 3:</u> When 3.0 moles of $H_2O$ is formed.

By Stoichiometry of the above reaction:

2 moles of water is formed from 1 mole of oxygen gas.

So, 3.0 moles of water will be formed from = $\frac{1}{2}\times 3.0=1.5mol$ of oxygen gas.

Hence, 1.5 moles of oxygen gas is required.

How will we know that a chemical reaction happened if we cant see atoms??

Mariana [72]

we can do soo by noticing any colour change, or by the formation of an insoluble precipitate or by the evolution of a gas.
