Answer:

The given metal sample is not aluminum because its density is 3.0 g/cm³ while density of aluminum is  2.7 g/cm³.

Explanation:

Given data:

Density of aluminum = 2.7 g/cm³

Mass of metal sample = 52.0 g

Volume of metal sample = 17.1 cm³

which sample is that = ?

Solution:

The given problem will be solve through density formula.

d = m/v

d = density

m = mass

v= volume

Now we will put the values in formula.

d = 52.0 g/ 17.1 cm³

d = 3.0 g/cm³

It is given in question the density of aluminum is 2.7 g/cm³. The given metal sample is not aluminum because its density is 3.0 g/cm³.

In the decomposition potassium nitride, 10.65 g of nitrogen form. How much potassium nitride was present initially ?
leonid [27]

Answer:

Mass =  99.8 g  

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of potassium nitride = ?

Mass of nitrogen produced = 10.65 g

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2K₃N→ 6K + N₂

Moles of nitrogen:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles =  10.65 g / 28 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.38 mol

Now we will compare the moles of nitrogen with potassium nitride.

                        N₂              ;         K₃N

                         1               :            2

                         0.38          :          2×0.38 =0.76

Mass of potassium nitride:

Mass = molar mass × number of moles

Mass =    131.3 g/mol ×   0.76 mol

Mass =  99.8 g

How many moles of oxygen are required to react with methanol in order to produce 13 moles of formaldehyde?
ddd [48]

Answer:

6.5 moles of Oxygen are required

Explanation:

Based on the reaction:

CH3OH + 1/2 O2 → CH2O + H2O

1 mole of methanol reacts with 1/2 moles O2 to produce 1 mole of formaldehyde and 1 mole of water.

Thus, to produe 13 moles of formaldehyde, CH2O, are needed:

13 moles CH2O * (1/2mol O2 / 1mol CH2O) =

<h3>6.5 moles of Oxygen are required</h3>
