Easy stoichiometry conversion :)

So, for stoichiometry, we always start with our "given". In this case, it would be the 10.0 grams of NaHCO3. This unit always goes over 1.

So, our first step would look like this:

10.0
------
  1

Next, we need to cancel out grams to get to moles. To do this, we will do grams of citric acid on the BOTTOM of the next step, so it cancels out. This unit in grams will be the mass of NaHCO3, which is 84.007. Then, we will do our unit of moles on top. Since this is unknown, it will be 1.

So, our 2nd step would look like this:

1 mole CO2
-----------------
84.007g NaHCO3

When we put it together: our complete stoichiometry problem would look like this:

10.0g NaHCO3     1mol CO2
---------------------- x -------------------------
            1                  84.007g NaHCO3

Now to find our answer, all we need to do is:
Multiply the two top numbers together (which is 10.0)
Multiply the two bottom numbers together (Which is 84.007)

And then....

Divide the top answer by the bottom answer.

10.0/84.007 is 0.119

So, from 10.0 grams of citric acid, we have 0.119 moles of CO2.

Hope I could help!

Answer : The number of moles of carbon dioxide is, 0.156 mole

Explanation : Given,

Mass of citric acid = 10 g

Molar mass of citric acid = 192 g/mole

The balanced chemical reaction will be,

C_6H_8O_7+3NaHCO_3\rightarrow Na_3C_6H_5O_7+3CO_2+3H_2O

From the balanced chemical reaction, we conclude that 1 mole of C_6H_8O_7 react with 3 moles of NaHCO_3 to give 1 mole of Na_3C_6H_5O_7, 3 moles of carbon dioxide gas and 3 moles of water as a product.

First we have to calculate the moles of citric acid.

\text{Moles of citric acid}=\frac{\text{Mass of citric acid}}{\text{Molar mass of citric acid}}=\frac{10g}{192g/mole}=0.052mole

Now we have to calculate the moles of carbon dioxide.

As, 1 mole of citric acid react to gives 3 moles of carbon dioxide

So, 0.052 mole of citric react to gives \frac{3}{1}\times 0.052=0.156 moles of carbon dioxide

Therefore, the number of moles of carbon dioxide is, 0.156 mole

How many atoms of oxygen are in 4.00 moles of N2O5
SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

there are 20 oxygen atoms in 4.00 moles of Dinitrogen pentoxide

Explanation:

there are 2 atoms in an oxygen molecule , so each oxygen molecules has at least 2. Dinitrogen pentoxide is N2O5, which has 7 atoms, 2 nitrogen and 5 oxygen. 1 molecule of N2O5 has 5 oxygen atoms, so 4 of then would be 20

How does the arrangement of elements in periods relate to electron configuration
VashaNatasha [74]
Electronic Configuration of elements in a period is same because If you see the electronic Configuration of elements in a period you will notice that the valence shell electrons for all elements are present in the same Shell. For example, in first period consisting of Hydrogen and Helium, both the elements' valence electrons are present in the same Shell.
Electronic Configuration of Hydrogen,
1s^1
Electronic Configuration of Helium,
1s^2

Both elements' valance electrons are present in the 1st shell

(This is just a small example to understand the concept because other periods are long but the first period is short that's why I gave the example of the first period)

Suppose a 250. mL flask is filled with 0.30 mol of N_2 and 0.70 mol of NO. The following reaction becomes possible:N_2(g) +O2 →
Inessa [10]

Answer:

0.4 M

Explanation:

Equilibrium occurs when the velocity of the formation of the products is equal to the velocity of the formation of the reactants. It can be described by the equilibrium constant, which is the multiplication of the concentration of the products elevated by their coefficients divided by the multiplication of the concentration of the reactants elevated by their coefficients. So, let's do an equilibrium chart for the reaction.

Because there's no O₂ in the beginning, the NO will decompose:

N₂(g) + O₂(g) ⇄ 2NO(g)

0.30 0 0.70 Initial

+x +x -2x Reacts (the stoichiometry is 1:1:2)

0.30+x x 0.70-2x Equilibrium

The equilibrium concentrations are the number of moles divided by the volume (0.250 L):

[N₂] = (0.30 + x)/0.250

[O₂] = x/0.25

[NO] = (0.70 - 2x)/0.250

K = [NO]²/([N₂]*[O₂])

K = \frac{(\frac{0.70 -2x}{0.250})^2 }{\frac{0.30+x}{0.250}*\frac{x}{0.250} }

7.70 = (0.70-2x)²/[(0.30+x)*x]

7.70 = (0.49 - 2.80x + 4x²)/(0.30x + x²)

4x² - 2.80x + 0.49 = 2.31x + 7.70x²

3.7x² + 5.11x - 0.49 = 0

Solving in a graphical calculator (or by Bhaskara's equation), x>0 and x<0.70

x = 0.09 mol

Thus,

[O₂] = 0.09/0.250 = 0.36 M ≅ 0.4 M

The combustion of 40.10 g of a compound which contains only C, H, Cl and O yields 58.57 g of CO2 and 14.98 g of H2O. Another sam
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

Answer:

The empirical formula is C4H5ClO2

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of the sample = 40.10 grams

Mass of CO2 produced = 58.57 grams

Mass of H2O produced = 14.98 grams

Molar mass CO2 = 44.01 g/mol

Molar mass H2O = 18.02 g/mol

Atomic mass C= 12.01 g/mol

Atomic mass O = 16.0 g/mol

Atomic mass H = 1.01 g/mol

In experiment 2, mass = 75.00 grams and 22.06 grams is Cl

Step 2: Calculate moles CO2

Moles CO2 = mass CO2 / molar mass CO2

Moles CO2 = 58.57 grams / 44.01 g/mol

Moles CO2 = 1.33 moles

Step 3: Calculate moles C

For 1 mol CO2 we have 1 mol CO2

For 1.33 moles CO2 we have 1.33 moles C

Step 4: Calculate mass C

Mass C = 1.33 grams * 12.01 g/mol

Mass C = 15.97 grams

Step 5: Calculate moles H2O

Moles H2O= 14.98 grams /18.02 g/mol

Moles H2O = 0.831 moles

Step 6: Calculate moles H

For 1mol H2O we have 2 moles H

For 0.831 moles H2O we have 2*0.831 = 1.662 moles H

Step7: Calculate mass H

Mass H = 1.662 moles * 1.01 g/mol

Mass H = 1.68 grams

Step 8: Calculate mass %

%C = (15.97 grams / 40.10) * 100 %

%C = 39.8 %

%H = (1.68 / 40.10 ) *100%

%H = 4.2 %

%Cl = (22.06 / 75.00 ) * 100%

%Cl = 29.4 %

%O = 100 % - 39.8% - 4.2 % - 29.4 %

%O = 26.6 %

Step 9: Calculate moles in compound

We assume the compound has a mass of 100 grams

Mass C = 39.8 grams

MAss H = 4.2 grams

MAss Cl = 29.4 grams

Mass O = 26.6 grams

Moles C = 39.8 grams / 12.01 g/mol

Moles C = 3.314 moles

Moles H = 4.2 moles / 1.01 g/mol

Moles H = 4.158 moles

Moles Cl =29.4 grams / 35.45 g/mol

Moles Cl = 0.829 moles

Moles O = 26.6 grams / 16.0 g/mol

Moles O = 1.663 moles

Step 10: calculate the mol ratio

We divide by the smallest amount of moles

C: 3.314 moles / 0.829 moles = 4

H: 4.158 moles / 0.829 moles = 5

Cl: 0.829 moles /0.829 moles = 1

O: 1.663 moles / 0.829 moles = 2

This means For each Cl atom we have 4 C atoms, 5 H atoms and 2 O atoms

The empirical formula is C4H5ClO2
