We have been given the condition that carbon makes up 35% of the mass of the substance and the rest is made up of oxygen. With this, it can be concluded that 65% of the substance is made up of oxygen. If we let x be the mass of oxygen in the substance, the operation that would best represent the scenario is,

<span>                                       x = (0.65)(5.5 g)</span>

<span>                                       <em> </em><span><em>x = 3.575 g</em></span></span>

If 23.17 g of beryllium (Be) reacts with water at standard temperature and pressure,
emmainna [20.7K]

Volume of H2 produced = 57.6576 L

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

23.17 g Be

Required

Volume of H2

Solution

Reaction

Be(s)+H2O(g)→BeO(s)+H2(g)

mol Be :

= 23.17 g : 9 g/mol

= 2.574

From the equation, mol H2 : mol Be = 1 : 1, so mol H2 = 2.574

Volume H2(assumed at STP, 1 mol=22.4 L) :

= 2.574 x 22.4 L

= 57.6576 L
