It will expand because the helium atoms will move more quickly and get farther apart.

How do you solve stoichiometry problems
nataly862011 [7]
Ok so the way I do it is as simple as possible.
Firstly look at the reactants and products ( there can be one reactant and one product or more ) you will usually be given the moles of the reactant or products, if you are given grams you can convert into moles by this convertion ( grams/R.M.M ) where R.M.M is the relative atomic mass of your substance ( the mass number of all of the elements in your substance).

Ok when you have moles now look at the ratio between the products and reactants. Usually you will won't know the moles of one substance therefore you will be asked to find moles or mass of that substance.

For example:

When 16 grams of oxygen and 1 gram of hydrogen gas react to produce water. Find the number of grams of water being produced.

O2 + 2H2 -> 2H2O
16g      2g          xg

Here we're told the mass of the reactants. In stoichiometry we need to work with moles therefore you need to calculate moles of the reactants.
Firstly find the R.M.M of each reactant.
R.M.M of O2 is 16+16=32 since it's diatomic we add atomic masses of two oxygen atoms.
R.M.M of H2 is 1+1=2, it's also diatomic. (Diatomic two atoms of the same element are joined together). (Ignore the number 2 in front of H2, this number shows us the ratio relationship between reactans or products, i.e when we balance an equation.)

Ok so now find moles:

We have 16 grams of O2
16/R.M.M
16/32 = 0.5 moles

We have 2 grams of H2
1/R.M.M
2/2 = 1 mole
Now back to the equation.

O2 + 2H2 -> 2H2O
0.5 moles 1mole xmoles                  (it's xmoles because we don't know                                                               molarity of water that's what we have                                                           find firstly in order to find grams.)
Now look at the ratio between any reactant and product i.e you can choose which reactant to compare to the product, it doesn't make a different ( I will do two or you can do two at the same time)

1st method:
Look at the ratio between O2 and H2O from the reaction above we see the ratio is 1:2 therefore for every 0.5 moles of O2 you get 1 mole of H2O.
1:2
0.5 : x
0.5*2 = 1

2nd method;
Look at the ratio betweem H2 and H2O from the reaction above we see the ratio is 2:2 or 1:1. We have 1 mole of H2 there we must have 1 mole of H2O. We see this is true as both methods give us 1 mole of H2O.

3rd method ( combined):
Look at the ratio between O2, H2 and H2O.
We see that the ratio is 1:2:2
So we have 0.5:1:x
If we multiply 0.5 *2 it equals 1 mole
If we multiply 1*1 we get 1 moles.
Any method is correct and it's up to you to find a comfortable way.
We're not finished in the question we are asked for the mass of water.
So just multiply the number of moles (1mole) by R.M.M of H2O.
1 * R.M.M
R.M.M of H2O = 1+1+16=18
1*18= 18 grams.
And you're finished.

I am sorry if this is so long I want you to understand as much as possible.
In stoichiometry you can also be asked about the empirical formula of a substance. I can show you how do it. If you have any question just tell me.
Hope this helps :).

A student noticed that the size of the hot pack becomes bigger when magnesium sulfate reacts with water. She thinks that more at
cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

Disagree with the suggestion based on the hygroscopic nature of anhydrous magnesium sulfate

Explanation:

Magnesium sulfate in the anhydrous form is a drying agent. A drying agent salts of inorganic compounds that has the capability of absorbing water to become hydrated, when placed in the presence of a wet surface or moist air

Anhydrous magnesium sulfate is therefore hygroscopic such that it absorbs water from the atmosphere and becomes hydrated and increases in size as its volume is increased according to the following chemical equation

MgSO₄(s) + 7H₂O(l) → MgSO₄·7H₂O(s)

The molar mass of anhydrous magnesium sulfate = 120.366 g/mol

The molar mass of the heptahydrate = 246.47 g/mol

Therefore, the mass of the magnesium sulfate doubles when it forms the heptahydrate, and the magnesium sulfate grows bigger.

A balanced equation tells you the mole ratio of all reactants and products. Using the chemical reaction below how many moles of
vichka [17]
<span>By using the mole ratio, we can determine that 2 moles of NH3 are made when 3 moles of hydrogen gas are present. The numbers in front of the chemicals tell us the relative amounts consumed and produced. Since there is a 3 in front of H2 and a 2 in front of NH3, this tells us that for every 3 moles of H2 gas used, 2 moles of NH3 are made.</span>
