Complete and balance this equation

o-na [289]

Answer:

C the number and placement of the electrons

Explanation:

Elements react with one another because they want to achieve a full valence shell of electrons. The noble gases already have a full valence shell of electrons, so they are unlikely to react with other elements.

Cryolite, Na3AlF6(s), an ore used in the production of aluminum, can be synthesized using aluminum oxide. Balance the equation f

dmitriy555 [2]

<u>Answer:</u> The mass of cryolite produced is 51.48 kg

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$ .....(1)

<u>For aluminium oxide:</u>

Given mass of aluminium oxide = 12.5 kg = 12500 g (Conversion factor: 1 kg = 1000 g)

Molar mass of aluminium oxide = 101.96 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of aluminium oxide}=\frac{12500g}{101.96g/mol}=122.6mol$

<u>For NaOH:</u>

Given mass of NaOH = 55.4 kg = 55400 g

Molar mass of NaOH = 40 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of NaOH}=\frac{55400g}{40g/mol}=1389mol$

<u>For HF:</u>

Given mass of HF = 55.4 kg = 55400 g

Molar mass of HF = 20 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of HF}=\frac{55400g}{20g/mol}=2770mol$

For the given chemical reaction:

$Al_2O_3(s)+6NaOH(l)+12HF(g)\rightarrow 2Na_3AlF_6+9H_2O(g)$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of aluminium oxide reacts with 6 moles of sodium hydroxide and 12 moles of HF.

So, 122.6 moles of aluminium oxide will react with $(6\times 122.6)=735.6mol$ of sodium hydroxide and $(12\times 122.6)=1471.2mol$ of HF

As, given amount of NaOH and HF is more than the required amount. So, they are considered as an excess reagent.

Thus, aluminium oxide is considered as a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of product.

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of aluminium oxide produces 2 moles of cryolite

So, 122.6 moles of aluminium oxide will produce = $\frac{2}{1}\times 122.6=245.2mol$ of cryolite

Now, calculating the mass of cryolite by using equation 1:

Molar mass of cryolite = 209.94 g/mol

Moles of cryolite = 245.2 mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$245.2mol=\frac{\text{Mass of cryolite}}{209.94g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of cryolite}=(245.2mol\times 209.94g/mol)=51477.3g$

Converting this into kilograms, we use the conversion factor:

1 kg = 1000 g

So, $51477.3 g\times (\frac{1kg}{1000g})=51.48kg$

Hence, the mass of cryolite produced is 51.48 kg

Match the prefixes. 1. 1 hex- 2. 2 eth- 3. 3 prop- 4. 4 hept- 5. 5 non- 6. 6 dec- 7. 7 pent- 8. 8 but- 9. 9 meth- 10. 10 oct-

erma4kov [3.2K]

Hi!

All these prefixes are commonly employed in the nomenclature in organic chemistry. These are associated with organic compounds, such as alkanes, alkenes, alcohols and carboxylic acids -and these prefixes are known as word root.

<h3>The answers would be:</h3><h3>a) 1 - meth</h3>

Meth is associated with the number one, in that it signifies the presence of one carbon in the compound in concern. For instance, a one carbon alkane would be known as methane -with <em>ane </em>being indicative of the compound being an alkane, and meth denoting the presence of one carbon

Eth is the associated prefix with the number 2 as it denotes the presence of 2 carbon atoms in the compound. For instance, the compound ethene gets it name for having 2 carbon atoms (denoted by eth). The eth acts as a prefix to the characteristic <em>ene</em> of alkenes.

Prop is the prefix that signifies the presence of 3 carbons in the compound in concern. For instance, propanol is a three carbon alcohol, which we can tell by the name. Prop indicating three carbons in the compound, and <em>anol</em> being indicative of the compound being an alcohol.

But is associated with the number one, in that it denotes the presence of 4 carbons in the compound. For instance, a 4 carbon carboxylic acid would be known as butanoic acid -with anoic<em> </em>being indicative of the compound being a carboxylic acid, and but signifying the presence of four carbons.

Pent is the associated prefix with the number five as it denotes the presence of five carbon atoms in the compound. For instance, the compound pentene gets it name for having five carbon atoms (denoted by pent). The pent acts as a prefix to the characteristic <em>ene</em> of alkenes.

Hex is the prefix that signifies the presence of six carbons in the compound in question. For instance, a six carbon alkane would be known as hexane -with <em>ane </em>being indicative of the compound being an alkane, and hex denoting the presence of one carbon

Hept is the associated prefix with the number seven as it denotes the presence of seven carbon atoms in the compound. For instance, the compound heptene gets it name for having seven carbon atoms (denoted by hept). The hept acts as a prefix to the characteristic <em>ene</em> of alkenes.

Oct is the prefix that is associated with the number 8. This is because it denotes the presence of eight carbon atoms in the compound. For instance, the compound octane gets it name for having eight carbon atoms (denoted by oct). The oct acts as a prefix to the characteristic <em>ane</em> of alkanes.

Non is the prefix that is associated with the number nine, and thus denotes the presence of nine carbon atoms in the compound. For instance, for alkanes, a nonane would be a nine carbon atom alkane, with non denoting the presence of nine carbon atoms, and <em>ane</em> being indicative that the compound it an alkane.

Dec is the prefix that is associated with the number nine, and thus denotes the presence of nine carbon atoms in the compound. For instance, for alkanes, a decane would be an alkane with ten carbon atoms, with dec denoting the presence of ten carbon atoms, and <em>ane</em> being indicative that the compound it an alkane.

<h3>Hope this helps!</h3>

Distinguish between atom molecules, and ions

NNADVOKAT [17]

Explanation:

Atoms are the smallest unit of matter that can't be broken down chemically. Molecules are groups of two or more atoms that are chemically bonded. Ions are atoms or molecules that have gained or lost one or more of their valence electrons and therefore have a net positive or negative charge.
