Part IV. Limiting Reactants! A Challenge Problem!

Chemistry
1 answer:
Alexxandr [17]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

a. Fe2O3(s) + 2Al(s) → 2Fe(s) + Al2O3(s)

b. Fe2O3 is the limiting reactant.

c. 6.30 grams Fe

d. 52.6 %

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of iron(III) oxide Fe2O3 = 9.00 grams

Mass of aluminium = 4.00 grams

Molar mass Fe2O3 = 159.69 g/mol

Aluminium molar mass = 26.98 g/mol

Step 2: The balanced equation

Fe2O3(s) + 2Al(s) → 2Fe(s) + Al2O3(s)

Step 3; Calculate Moles

Moles = mass / molar mass

Moles Fe2O3 = 9.00 grams / 159.69 g/mol

Moles Fe2O3 = 0.0564 moles

Moles Al = 4.00 grams / 26.98 g/mol

Moles Al = 0.148 moles

Step 4: Calculate limiting reactant

For 1 mol Fe2O3 we need 2 moles Al to produce 2 moles Fe and 1 mol Al2O3

Fe2O3 is the limiting reactant. It will completely be consumed (0.0564 moles).  Al is in excess. There will react 0.0564*2 = 0.1128 moles

There will remain 0.148 - 0.1128 = 0.0352 moles Al

Step 5: Calculate moles Fe

For 1 mol Fe2O3 we need 2 moles Al to produce 2 moles Fe and 1 mol Al2O3

For 0.0564 moles Fe2O3 we'll have 2*0.0564 = 0.1128 moles Fe

Step 6: Mass of Fe

Mass Fe = 0.1128 moles * 55.845 g/mol

Mass Fe = 6.30 grams

Step 7: If you carried out this reaction and it actually produced 0.475 mL of molten iron (r = 6.98 g/mL), what is the percent yield of this reaction?

Density = mass / volume

Mass = density * volume

Mass = 6.98 g/mL * 0.475 mL

Mass = 3.3155 grams

Percent yield = (actual mass / theoretical mass) * 100%

Percent yield = (3.3155 /6.30 ) * 100 %

Percent yield = 52.6 %

How many electrons will each element gain or lose in forming an ion?
Amanda [17]
It depends on the number of valence electrons required to make octet or duplet( in case of H). For example, Nitrogen(atomic number = 7) has electronic configuration(2,5) which means nitrogen has 5 valence electrons and requires 3 more electrons to complete its octet. After gaining 3 electrons from atoms of an element with less electronegativity than N, it forms nitride ion (N ^{-3}). Hope this helps.

Screen shot is attached , please help
vlada-n [284]

Answer: 0.680 mol

Explanation:

From the coefficients of the equation, we know that for every 3 moles of carbon dioxide produced, 5 moles of oxygen gas are consumed.

So, the answer is (5/3)(0.408) = 0.680 mol (to 3 sf)

Besides color, what other factors do designers consider when coming up with winning color combos?
Kitty [74]

Answer:

Consider your personal preferences first because the colors you use in your home need to reflect those preferences as well as fit in with your lifestyle.

Light has an influence over the colors that can make them look stunning as well as dull. Different types of light sources such as incandescent, fluorescent, halogen, or LED will affect the way a color appears.

The orientation of the room such as the direction it faces or how much natural or artificial light is available can also affect how colors will appear in the room. So, consider the room specifications as well.

Consider fixed as well as furnished elements and accessories as they too have color. Take them into consideration to ensure that camouflaging or clashing doesn’t happen.

Consider the texture of walls whether they are smooth, rough, or in between. The texture will change the appearance of the color. Smooth walls will appear lighter while rough walls will appear darker.

Consider the kind of mood you want to set in a particular room. Different colors as well as their hues and combinations emote different feelings.

Consider the finishing if the paint whether to use gloss, semi-gloss, or satin to name a few. The finish of the t will have a lot to do with the final look of your color.
