As aluminium loses 12 moles of electrons oxygen gain 12 moles of electrons.

Explanation
4Al + 3 O2→ Al2O3
first write the ions of Aluminium and oxygen

that is, Aluminium ion is = Al^3+
oxygen ion is = O^2-
therefore one atom of Al loses 3 electrons moles while
one atom of O gain 2 electrons moles

from equation above there a total of number of Al atom are 4 =( 1 x4=4) atoms while
Oxygen atoms are 6= ( 3 x2=6) atoms

therefore the total number of Moles of Al lost is = 3 x 4 = 12 moles of electrons

total number of moles of O gained = 2 x6 = 12 moles of electrons

Base on the question, which of the following that sates the balance of the reaction and as the aluminum loses 12 moles of electrons, what could be the oxygen, and base on my research, the possible answer among them is in number (2) gains 12 moles of electrons, I hope you are satisfied with my answer and feel free to ask for more

Logging trees is often controversial. Why would some people support logging and some people not support logging?

Harlamova29_29 [7]

It seems more and more there are fewer conservation organizations who speak for the forest, and more that speak for the timber industry. Witness several recent commentaries in Oregon papers that are by no means unique. I’ve seen similar themes from other conservation groups across the West in recent years.

Many conservation groups have uncritically adopted views that support more logging of our public lands based upon increasingly disputed ideas about forest health and fire ecology, as well as the age-old bias against natural processes like wildfire and beetles.

For instance, an article in the Portland Oregonian quotes Oregon Wild’s executive director Sean Stevens bemoaning the closure of a timber mill in John Day Oregon. Stevens said: “Loss of the 29-year-old Malheur Lumber Co. mill would be ‘a sad turn of events’” Surprisingly, Oregon Wild is readily supporting federal subsidies to promote more logging on the Malheur National Forest to sustain the mill.

The pH of a vinegar solution is 4.15. What is the H+ concentration of the solution

marishachu [46]

<span>The pH of a vinegar solution is 4.15. To find the H+ concentration of the solution use the following equation -log(H+)=pH. Insert the pH into the equation to get, -log(H+) = 4.15 Rearrange the equation to get, 10^(-4.15) = H+ Finally, you can solve for H+. The hydrogen ion concentration of the vinegar solution is .0000708 M.</span>

Determine the molar mass of a 0.458-gram sample of gas having a volume of 1.20 l at 287 k and 0.980 atm. group of answer choices

lilavasa [31]

Considering the ideal gas law and the definition of molar mass, the molar mass of the sample of gas is 9.17 $\frac{g}{mol}$ .

<h3>Ideal gas law</h3>

An ideal gas is a theoretical gas that is considered to be composed of randomly moving point particles that do not interact with each other. Gases in general are ideal when they are at high temperatures and low pressures.

The pressure, P, the temperature, T, and the volume, V, of an ideal gas, are related by a simple formula called the ideal gas law:

P×V = n×R×T

where:

P is the gas pressure.
V is the volume that occupies.
T is its temperature.
R is the ideal gas constant. The universal constant of ideal gases R has the same value for all gaseous substances.
n is the number of moles of the gas.

<h3>Definition of molar mass</h3>

The molar mass of substance is a property defined as its mass per unit quantity of substance, in other words, molar mass is the amount of mass that a substance contains in one mole.

<h3>Molar mass of the sample of gas</h3>

In this case you know:

P= 0.980 arm
V= 1.20 L
T= 287 K
R= 0.082 $\frac{atmL}{molK}$
n= ?

Replacing in the ideal gas law:

0.980 atm× 1.20 L= n× 0.082 $\frac{atmL}{molK}$ × 287 K

Solving:

(0.980 atm× 1.20 L)÷ (0.082 $\frac{atmL}{molK}$ × 287 K)= n

<u><em>0.04997 moles= n</em></u>

On the other hand, you know that the<u><em> mass of the sample of gas</em></u> is <u><em>0.458 grams</em></u>. Replacing in the definition of molar mass:

$molar mass=\frac{0.458 grams}{0.04997 moles}$
