Answer:

  91.7°C

Explanation:

We suppose you have a formula to work from. However, that is not supplied with this problem statement, so we looked one up.

The formula in the attachment is supposed to have good accuracy in the temperature range of interest. It gives vapor pressure of water in kPa, not mmHg, so we needed the conversion for that, too.

560 mmHg corresponds to about 74.66 kPa. The attached "Buck equation" formula is used to find the corresponding temperature. The exponential equation could be solved algebraically using logarithms and the quadratic formula, but we choose to find the solution graphically.

Water boils at about 91.7 °C on Mt. Whitney.

What mass of CO2 can be produced from the decomposition of 4.8 moles of Fe2(CO3)3?
gavmur [86]

Answer: 633.6 g of CO_2 can be produced from the decomposition of 4.8 moles of Fe_2(CO_3)_3

Explanation:

The balanced chemical equation for decomposition of Fe_2(CO_3)_2 is :

Fe_2(CO_3)_2\rightarrow Fe_2O_3+3CO_2

According to stoichiometry :

1 mole of Fe_2(CO_3)_2 produce = 3 moles of CO_2

Thus 4.8 moles of Fe_2(CO_3)_2 will rproduce=\frac{3}{1}\times 4.8=14.4moles  of CO_2

Mass of CO_2=moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=14.4moles\times 44g/mol=633.6g

Thus 633.6 g of CO_2 can be produced from the decomposition of 4.8 moles of Fe_2(CO_3)_3
