Answer:
70mol
Explanation:
The equation of the reaction is given as:
2C₂H₂ + 5O₂ → 4CO₂ + 2H₂O
Given parameters:
Number of moles of acetylene = 35.0mol
Number of moles of oxygen in the tank = 84.0mol
Unknown:
Number of moles of CO₂ produced = 35.0mol
Solution:
From the information given about the reaction, we know that the reactant that limits this combustion process is acetylene. Oxygen is given in excess and we don't know the number of moles of this gas that was used up. We know for sure that all the moles of acetylene provided was used to furnish the burning procedure.
To determine the number of moles of CO₂ produced, we use the stoichiometric relationship between the known acetylene and the CO₂ produced from the balanced chemical equation:
From the equation:
2 moles of acetylene produced 4 moles of CO₂
∴ 35.0 mol of acetylene would produced:
= 70mol
You must remember that oxidation number of hydrogen in acids is always +1, oxidation number of oxygen in oxides & acids is always -2... metals has always oxidation number on plus!
group NO3 comes from HNO3...and oxidation number of whole acid group is always on minus and equal to the amount of hydrogen atoms in this acid... so oxidation number of NO3 = -1
we have 2 NO3 groups so 2*(-1) = -2 and that is the reason why oxidation number of Fe in this formula must be +2... because sum of all elements always gives 0!
Now we could count of oxidation number for nitrogen... we write HNO3 and start counting from right to left:
3*(-2) from oxygens + 1 from hydrogen = -5
so nitrogen must have +5 oxidation number... because sum all in formula must be 0.
4I₂+9O₂= 2I₄+2O₉
Reactants: 8 iodine, 18 oxygen
Products: 8 iodine, 18 oxygen
