Answer:

The magnesium reacted with the oxygen in the air.

Explanation:

For argument’s sake, let’s say that the mass of magnesium oxide was 3 g and that of the oxide was 5 g.  

The reaction was

            magnesium + oxygen ⟶ magnesium oxide

Mass:           3 g                                          5 g

Mass of oxygen = 5 g – 3 g = 2 g

The 3 g of magnesium must have combined with 2 g of oxygen to form 5 g of magnesium oxide.

Given the following, determine ΔG°f at 298 K for SnO. Sn(s) + SnO2(s) → 2SnO(s) ; ΔG° = 12.0 kJ at 298K
Virty [35]

Answer:

The value of change in Gibbs free energy for tin(II) oxide solid is -251.9 kJ/mol.

Explanation:

Sn(s) + SnO_2(s)\rightarrow 2SnO(s), \Delta G_{f}^{o} = 12.0 kJ

\Delta G_{f,SnO_2}^{o}= -515.8kJ/mol

\Delta G_{f,Sn}^{o}= 0 kJ/mol

\Delta G_{f,SnO}^{o}=?

\Delta G_{f}^{o}=\sum ((\Delta G_{f}^{o})_ {products})-\sum ((\Delta G_{f}^{o})_ {reactants})

12.0 kJ=(2 mol\times \Delta G_{f,SnO}^{o})-(1mol\times 0 kJ/mol+1 mol\times -515.8 kJ/mol)

\Delta G_{f,SnO}^{o}=-251.9 kJ/mol

The value of change in Gibbs free energy for tin(II) oxide solid is -251.9 kJ/mol.

The burning of propane gas can be represented as a balanced chemical reaction as follows: C3H8(g)+5O2(g)→3CO2(g)+4H2O(g) Calcula
Snezhnost [94]

Answer: 20L of H2O

Explanation:

C3H8 + 5O2 → 3CO2 + 4H2O

Recall 1mole of a gas contains 22.4L at stp

5moles of O2 contains = 5 x 22.4 = 112L

4moles of H2O contains = 4 x 22.4 = 89.6L

From the equation,

112L of O2 produced 89.6L H2O

There for 25L of O2 will produce XL of H2O i.e

XL of H2O = (25 x 89.6)/112 = 20L

How many grams of butane were in 1. 000 atm of gas at room temperature?
dimaraw [331]

The mass in grams of butane at standard room temperature is 53.21 grams.

<h3>How can we determine the mass of an organic substance at room temperature?</h3>

The gram of an organic substance at room temperature can be determined by using the ideal gas equation which can be expressed as:

PV = nRT

  • Pressure = 1.00 atm
  • Volume = 22.4 L
  • Rate = 0.0821 atm*L/mol*K
  • Temperature = 25° C = 298 k

1 × 22.4 L = n × (0.0821 atm*L/mol*K×  298 K)

n = 22.4/24.4658 moles

n = 0.91556 moles

Recall that:

  • number of moles = mass(in grams)/molar mass

mass of butane = 0.91556 moles × 58.12 g/mole

mass of butane = 53.21 grams

Uranium has an atomic weight of 238 amu.
shepuryov [24]

Answer:

U= 238g/mol

U2O5= 556g/mol

Explanation:

Since U= 238

O=16

U3O5= 2(238)+3(16)=556g/mol
