A student determines the aluminum content of a solution by first precipitating it as aluminum hydroxide, and then decomposing th

e hydroxide to aluminum oxide by heating. How many grams of aluminum oxide should the student obtain if her solution contains 40.0 mL of 0.541 M aluminum nitrate?

Answer: The student should obtain <u>1.103 g of aluminum oxide </u>

Explanation:

  • First we write down the equations that represent the aluminum hydroxide precipitation  from the reaction between the aluminum nitrate and the sodium hydroxide:

Al(NO3)3 + 3NaOH → 3NaNO3 + Al(OH)3

Now,  the equation that represents the decomposition of the hydroxide to aluminum oxide by heating it.

2Al(OH)3 → Al2O3 + 3H2O

  • Second, we gather the information what we are going to use in our calculations.

Volumen of  Al(NO3)3 = 40mL

Molar concentration of Al(NO3)3 =  0.541M

Molecular Weight Al2O3 = 101.96 g/mol

  • Third, we start using the molar concentration of the aluminum nitrate and volume used to find out the total amount of moles that are reacting

\frac{0.541moles Al(NO3)3}{1L} x\frac{1L}{1000mL} x 40mL Al(NO3)3 =  0.022moles Al(NO3)3

then we use the molar coefficients from the  equations to discover the amount of Al2O3  moles produced

0.022moles Al(NO3)3 x \frac{1mol Al(OH)3}{1mol Al(NO3)3} X\frac{1mol Al2O3}{2molAl(OH)3} = 0.011 moles Al2O3

finally, we use the molecular weight of the Al2O3  to calculate the final mass produced.

0.011moles Al2O3 x \frac{101.96g Al2O3}{1mol Al2O3} = 1.103g Al2O3

Firlakuza [10]

Answer:

1807.24L

Explanation:

Using combined gas law equation:

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

Where;

P1 = pressure on Earth

P2 = Pressure on Mars

V1 = volume on Earth

V2 = volume on Mars

T1 = temperature on Earth

T2 = temperature on Mars

According to the information provided of the balloon in this question;

P1 = 1 atm

P2 = 4.55 torr = 4.55/760 = 0.00599atm

V1 = 14.5L

V2 = ?

T1 = 19°C = 19 + 273 = 292K

T2 = -55°C = -55 + 273 = 218K

Using P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

1 × 14.5/292 = 0.00599 × V2/218

14.5/292 = 0.00599V2/218

Cross multiply

14.5 × 218 = 292 × 0.00599V2

3161 = 1.74908V2

V2 = 3161 ÷ 1.74908

V2 = 1807.24L

What volume will 12.0 g of oxygen gas occupy at 25 c and a pressure of 52.7 kpa?
Stolb23 [73]
We can use the ideal gas law equation to find the volume occupied by oxygen gas
PV = nRT
where ;
P - pressure - 52.7 kPa
V - volume 
n - number of oxygen moles - 12.0 g / 32 g/mol = 0.375 mol
R - universal gas constant - 8.314 Jmol⁻¹K⁻¹
T - temperature - 25 °C + 273 = 298 K
substituting the values in the equation 
52 700 Pa x V = 0.375 mol x 8.314 Jmol⁻¹K⁻¹ x 298 K
 V = 17.6 L
volume of the gas is 17.6 L

Do x-rays travel slower than infrared
OleMash [197]
No, x-rays do not travel slower than infrared radiation or even the opposite. Both are travelling in vacuum therefore they travel at same speed. They differ in the frequency of the electromagnetic waves.
