Structure. Amethyst is a purple variety of quartz (SiO2) and owes its violet color to irradiation, iron impurities (in some cases in conjunction with transition element impurities), and the presence of trace elements, which result in complex crystal lattice substitutions.

Answer:

Therefore 373 mole of Al produce 746 mole of water.

Explanation:

Given reaction is

3 Al+3NH₄ClO₄→Al₂O₃+AlCl₃+3NO+6H₂O

From the above reaction it is clear that 3 mole of Al produce 6 mole of water.

Therefore

3 mole of Al produce 6 mole of water.

1 mole of Al produce $\frac{6}{3}$ mole of water.

373 mole of Al produce $\frac{6\times 373}{3}$ mole of water.

= 746 mole of water.

Therefore 373 mole of Al produce 746 mole of water.

4.2 g of lithium (Li) reacts with 2.8 g of nitrogen (N2). Find the simplest molar ratio in which lithium reacts with nitrogen.

o-na [289]

The simplest molar ratio in which lithium reacts with nitrogen is 6 moles of lithium to 1 mol of nitrogen.

What is molar ratio?

A molar ratio examines the ratio that exist between two chemical compounds showing the amounts in moles of the compounds involved in a chemical reaction.

Molar ratio = amount of a constituent in moles ÷ total amount of all constituents in a mixture in moles

Given:

Mass of lithium (Li) = 4.2 g

Mass of nitrogen (N2) = 2.8 g

Total amount of mass = 7g

Moles = molecular weight ÷ mass of water

Moles of lithium (Li) = 4.2 ÷ 7 = 0.60 mol

Moles of nitrogen (N₂) = 2.8 ÷ 7 = 0.10 mol

Therefore, ratio Li : N₂ = 0.60 : 0.10 = 6 : 1

6 Li + N₂

The balanced equation between lithium and nitrogen, to form lithium nitride = 6 Li + N₂ → 2 Li₃N₆L i + N₂ → 2Li₃N

In summary, the simplest molar ratio in which lithium reacts with nitrogen is 6:1

1. Ethylene glycol, commonly used in antifreezes, contains only carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. When a sample of it is combusted i

11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

Empirical formula = CH3O

Molecular formula = C2H6O2

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of the sample = 23.46 grams

Mass of H2O = 20.42 grams

Molar mass of H2O = 18.02 g/mol

Mass of CO2 = 33.27 grams

Molar mass of CO2 = 44.01 G:mol

Atomic mass of C = 12.01 g/mol

Atomic mass of O = 16.0 g/mol

Atomic mass of H = 1.01 g/mol

Molar mass of the compound = 62.0 g/mol

Step 2: Calculate moles of H2O

Moles H2O = 20.42 grams / 18.02 g/mol

Moles H2O = 1.133 moles

Step 3: Calculate moles H

For 1 mol H2O we have 2 moles H

For 1.133 moles H2O we have 2* 1.133 = 2.266 moles H

Step 4: Calculate mass H

Mass H = 2.266 moles * 1.01 g/mol

Mass H = 2.29 grams

Step 5: Calculate moles CO2

Moles CO2 = 33.27 grams / 44.01 g/mol

Moles CO2 = 0.7560 moles

Step 6: Calculate moles C

For 1 mol CO2 we have 1 mol C

For 0.7560 moles CO2 we have 0.7560 moles C

Step 7: Calculate mass C

Mass C = 0.7560 moles * 12.01 g/mol

Mass C = 9.08 grams

Step 8: Calculate mass O

Mass O = 23.46 grams - 9.08 grams - 2.29 grams

Mass O =12.09 grams

Step 9: Calculate moles O

Moles O = 12.09 grams / 16.0 g/moles

Moles O = 0.7556

Step 10: Calculate mol ratio

We divide by the smallest amount of moles

C: 0.7560 moles / 0.7556 moles =1

H: 2.266 moles / 0.7556 moles =3

O; 0.7556 / 0.7560 moles = 1

This means for 1 mol C we have 3 moles H and 1 mol O

The empirical formula is CH3O

Step 11: Calculate the molecular formula

The molar mass of the empirical formula is 31 g/mol

Step 11: Calculate molecular formula

We have to multiply the empirical formula by n

n = 62.0 g/mol / 31g/mol = 2

Molecular formula = 2*(CH3O)

Molecular formula = C2H6O2

Barium acetate, Ba(C2H3O2)2, is a common barium salt that is highly poisonous. It was featured in a 2001 episode of Forensic Fil

aleksley [76]

Answer:

209.68

Explanation:

The only number that is relevant (though the rest are quite interesting) is the last one 1.98 * 10^24

1 mole of Barium Acetate Contains 6.02*10^23 particles.

There are 4 moles of carbon to every mole of Barium Acetate.

1.98 * 10^24 atoms / (4*6.02*10^23)

0.8223 moles of Ba(C2H3O2)2

Ba = 137

4C = 4*12 48

6H = 6*1 6

4O = 4*16 64

1mole 255 grams

0.8223 * 255 = 209.68 grams

I have used rounded masses for these elements depending on the periodic table you use. Go through the question with your masses to get a more accurate answer. My answer will not differ by much. It is a guide.
