What is the most important clue that a chemical reaction is taking place?

Chemistry

Paul [167]3 years ago

I will give you two clues just incase:

-Change in temperature-usually when a reaction takes place heat will be absorbed or released which result in a temperature change.-eg: put a piece of sodium in water. you will feel or observe that the temperature is increased


-Change in colour-Some times we see a colour change in the media when a reaction takes

How important each one is depends on what you are learning about a chemical reaction. Hope I helped!

A 6.40 g sample of a compound is burned to produce 8.37 g CO_2, 2.75 g H_2O, 1.06 g N_2, and 1.23 g SO_2. What is the empirical
LuckyWell [14K]

The empirical formula :

C₁₀H₁₆N₄SO₇

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

6.4 g sample

Required

The empirical formula

Solution

mass C :

= 12/44 x 8.37 g

= 2.28

mass H :

= 2/18 x 2.75 g

= 0.305

mass N = 1.06

mass S :

= 32/64 x 1.23

= 0.615

mass O = 6.4 - (2.28+0.305+1.06+0.615) = 2.14 g

Mol ratio :

= C : H : N : S : O

= 2.28/12 : 0.305/1 : 1.06/14 : 0.615/32 : 2.14/16

= 0.19 : 0.305 : 0.076 : 0.019 : 0.133 divided by 0.019

= 10 : 16 : 4 : 1 : 7

The empirical formula :

C₁₀H₁₆N₄SO₇

Sodium peroxide (Na2O2) is used to remove carbon dioxide from (and add oxygen to) the air supply in spacecrafts. It works by rea
bazaltina [42]

 The volume  (in liters)  of CO₂  that can  be consumed at STP by 435 g Na₂O₂  is  125 L of Co₂

<u><em>calculation</em></u>

2Na₂O₂(s)  +2 CO₂ (g)→  2 Na₂CO₃(s)  + O₂(g)

Step 1 : find the moles  of Na₂O₂

moles = mass÷  molar mass

from periodic table the  molar mass  of Na₂O₂ = (23 x2) +( 16 x2) = 78 g/mol

 moles= 435 g÷ 78 g/mol = 5.58 moles

Step 2: use the mole ratio to determine the moles of CO₂

from given equation  Na₂O₂ : CO₂ =2 :2 =1:1

Therefore the  moles of CO₂  is also = 5.58 moles

Step 3: find the volume  of CO₂  at STP

that is at STP      1  mole of a gas = 22.4 L

                          5.58 moles = ? l

<em>by cross multiplication</em>

= (5.58 moles x 22.4 L) / 1 mole = 125 L
