<span>26.833 liters

Aluminum oxide has a formula of Al</span>₂O₃,<span> which means for every mole of aluminum used, 1.5 moles of oxygen is required (3/2 = 1.5).

Given 42.5 g of aluminum divided by its atomic mass (26.9815385) gives 1.575 moles of aluminum.

Since it takes 1.5 moles of oxygen per mole of aluminum to make aluminum oxide, you'll need 2.363 moles of oxygen atoms.

Each molecule of oxygen gas has 2 oxygen atoms, so the moles of oxygen gas will be 2.363/2 = 1.1815

Finally, you need to calculate the volume of </span>1.1815 <span>moles of oxygen gas.
1 mole of gas at STP occupies 22.7 liters of volume. Therefore,

1.1815 * 22.7 = </span>26.8 liters <span>of oxygen gas.

Approximate temperature of a .7 mold sample of a gas at 1.2 ATM and volume of .170 L
faust18 [17]
Assuming you meant a 0.7 mole sample of a gas, we can approximate this by assuming that the gas is acting ideally, and use the ideal gas law PV=nRT. Using the following values:
P = 1.2 Atm
V = 0.170 L
n = 0.7 mol
R = 0.08206 L-atm/mol-K
We can rewrite the equation as: PV/nR = T
Plug in our values:
(1.2 atm)(0.170 L)/(0.08206*0.7 moles) = approximately 3.55 Kelvin = T

When iron metal reacts with sulfuric acid, it produces iron (III) sulfate and hydrogen gas. Balance the equation: Fe + H2SO4 → F
gavmur [86]
<h3>Answer:</h3>
  1. Balanced Equation; 2Fe + 3H₂SO₄ → Fe₂(SO₄)₃ + 3H₂
  2. Why balance?: To obey the law of conservation of mass
  3. Subscripts can not be changed, since they show the actual number of atoms of each element in a compound.
<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • The balanced equation for the reaction between the iron metal and sulfuric acid to produces iron (III) sulfate and hydrogen gas is given by;

2Fe + 3H₂SO₄ → Fe₂(SO₄)₃ + 3H₂

  • Balancing chemical equations ensures that they obey the law of conservation of mass which requires the mass of reactants and the mass of products to be equal.
  • Balancing is done by putting coefficients on reactants and products while not affecting the subscripts as subscripts show the actual number of atoms of an element in a compound.
