Given:

Mass of pure iron (Fe) = 3.4 g

To determine:

Mass of HBr needed to dissolve the above iron

Explanation:

Reaction between HBr and Fe is

Fe + 2HBr → FeBr₂ + H₂

Based on the reaction stoichiometry-

1 mole of Fe reacts with 2 moles of HBr

# moles of Fe = mass of Fe/atomic mass of Fe = 3.4/56 g.mol⁻¹ = 0.0607 moles

Therefore # moles of HBr = 2*0.0607 = 0.1214 moles

Molar mass of HBr = 81 g/mole

Mass of HBr = 0.1214 moles * 81 g/mole = 9.83 g

Ans: Mass of HBR required is 9.83 g

6NaC₂H₃O₂ + Fe₂O₃ → 2Fe(C₂H₃O₂)₃ + 3Na₂O

Explanation:

Given equation;

NaC₂H₃O₂ + Fe₂O₃ → Fe(C₂H₃O₂)₃ + Na₂O

To find the coefficient that will balance this we equation, let us set up simple mathematical algebraic expressions that we can readily solve.

Let us have at the back of our mind that, in every chemical reaction, the number of atom is usually conserved.

aNaC₂H₃O₂ + bFe₂O₃ → cFe(C₂H₃O₂)₃ + dNa₂O

a, b, c and d are the coefficients that will balance the equation.

conserving Na; a = 2d

C: 2a = 6c

H: 3a = 9c

O; 2a + 3b = 6c + d

Fe: 2b = c

let a = 1

solving:

2a = 6c

2(1) = 6c

c = $\frac{2}{6} = \frac{1}{3}$

2b = c

b = $\frac{1}{2} x \frac{1}{3}$ = $\frac{1}{6}$

d = 2a + 3b - 6c = 2(1 ) + (3 x $\frac{1}{6}$ ) - (6 x $\frac{1}{3}$ ) = $\frac{1}{2}$

Now multiply through by 6

a = 6, b = 1, c = 2 and d = 3

6NaC₂H₃O₂ + Fe₂O₃ → 2Fe(C₂H₃O₂)₃ + 3Na₂O

Un gas ocupa un volumen de 12 litros a una presión de 912 mm Hg. Si permanece constante la temperatura, ¿A qué presión el gas oc

adoni [48]

Answer:

The pressure occupied is 1, 8 atm.

Explanation:

We use the Boyle´s Mariotte ´s law: for a given mass of gas at constant temperature, the pressure and volume vary inversely proportionally: P1xV1= P2xV2. The unit of pressure is converted to mmHg in atm.

760 mmHg----1 atm

912 mmHg---x= (912 mmHg x 1 atm)/760 mmHg=1,2 atm

P1xV1= P2xV2

P2=P1xV1/V2= 1,2 atm x 12 L/ 8L= 1, 8 atm
