Why is stoichiometry is used in cooking?

Chemistry
1 answer:
labwork [276]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Explanation:

stoichiometry is used in cooking because it helps you determine the amount or proportion of compounds you will need in a chemical reaction. Stoichiometry is present in daily life, even in the cooking recipes we make at home. The reactions depend on the compounds involved and how much of each compound is needed to determine the product that will result.

Aluminum reacts with sulfur gas to produce aluminum sulfide. a) What is the limiting reactant? What is the excess reagent? b) Ho
Sophie [7]

Answer:

a) Limiting: sulfur. Excess: aluminium.

b) 1.56g Al₂S₃.

c) 0.72g Al

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the initial mass of both aluminium and sulfur are missing, therefore, one could assume they are 1.00 g for each one. Thus, by considering the undergoing chemical reaction turns out:

2Al(s)+3S_2(g)\rightarrow 2Al_2S_3(s)\\

a) Thus, considering the assumed mass (which could be changed based on the one you are given), the limiting reagent is identified as shown below:

n_S^{available}=1.00gS_2*\frac{1molS_2}{64gS_2} =0.0156molS_2\\n_S^{consumed\ by \ Al}=1.00gAl*\frac{1molAl}{27gAl}*\frac{3molS_2}{2molAl}=0.0556molS_2

Thereby, since there 1.00g of aluminium will consume 0.0554 mol of sulfur but there are just 0.0156 mol available, the limiting reagent is sulfur and the excess reagent is aluminium.

b) By stoichiometry, the produced grams of aluminium sulfide are:

m_{Al_2S_3}=0.0156molS_2*\frac{2molAl_2S_3}{3molS_2} *\frac{150gAl_2S_3}{1molAl_2S_3} =1.56gAl_2S_3

c) The leftover is computed as follows:

m_{Al}^{excess}=(0.0556-0.0156)molS_2*\frac{2molAl}{3molS_2}*\frac{27gAl}{1molAl} =0.72 gAl\\

NOTE: Remember I assumed the quantities, they could change based on those you are given, so the results might be different, but the procedure is quite the same.

Best regards.

in order to find the molar mass of an unknown compound, a research scientist prepared a solution of 0.930 g of an unknown in 125
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

Molar mass→ 0.930 g / 6.45×10⁻³ mol = 144.15 g/mol

Explanation:

Let's apply the formula for freezing point depression:

ΔT = Kf . m

ΔT = 74.2°C - 73.4°C → 0.8°C

Difference between the freezing T° of pure solvent and freezing T° of solution

Kf = Cryoscopic constant → 5.5°C/m

So, if we replace in the formula

ΔT = Kf . m → ΔT / Kf = m

0.8°C / 5.5 m/°C = m → 0.0516 mol/kg

These are the moles in 1 kg of solvent so let's find out the moles in our mass of solvent which is 0.125 kg

0.0516 mol/kg . 0.125 kg = 6.45×10⁻³ moles. Now we can determine the molar mass:

Molar mass (mol/kg) → 0.930 g / 6.45×10⁻³ mol = 144.15 g/mol

An atom of which of these elements most likely forms an anion? A. AI B. Br C. Ca D. Mg
Papessa [141]
The answer is B. A good way determine this is how far right the element is on the periodic table. The further right the element is, the more electronegative it is meaning it is more willing to accept an electron. This can be explained using the valence electrons and how many need to be added or removed to complete the octet. The further right you are, the easier it is for the element to just gain a few electrons instead of loose a bunch. Noble gases are the exception to this since they don't normally react though.
