<u>Answer:</u> The coefficient of carbon in the chemical reaction is 1.

<u>Explanation:</u>

A balanced chemical equation is defined as the equation in which total number of individual atoms on the reactant side is equal to the total number of individual atoms on product side.

Law of conservation of mass states that mass can neither be created nor be destroyed but it can only be transformed from one form to another form.

The chemical equation for the reaction of tin (IV) oxide and carbon follows:

SnO_2+C\rightarrow Sn+CO_2

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of tin (IV) oxide reacts with carbon to produce 1 mole of elemental tin and carbon dioxide.

Hence, the coefficient of carbon in the chemical reaction is 1.

When a pure sample of KNO3(s) spontaneously dissolves in water at room temperature, the solution becomes quite cold to the touch
jekas [21]

The enthalpy of the solution is <u>positive </u>and the entropy is <u>positive</u>.

Potassium trioxonitrate (V) KNO₃(s) is a strong oxidizing solid substance that when dissolved in water changes to aqueous solution.

In its aqueous solution state, the randomness of molecules increases as a result of that the entropy will also increase leading to the positive state of the entropy.

Similarly, provided that the solution becomes quite cold to the touch, the enthalpy is also in it positive state.

Therefore, we can conclude that the enthalpy of the solution is <u>positive </u>and the entropy is <u>positive</u>.

A 250.0 mL sample of aqueous solution contains an unknown amount of dissolved NaBr. Excess aqueous Pb(NO3)2is then added to this
Scrat [10]

Answer:

A. 0.0655 mol/L.

B. PbBr2.

C. Pb2+(aq) + Br- --> PbBr2(s).

Explanation:

Balanced equation of the reaction:

Pb(NO3)2(aq) + 2NaBr(aq) --> PbBr2(s) + 2NaNO3(aq)

A.

Number of moles

PbBr2

Molar mass = 207 + (80*2)

= 367 g/mol.

Moles = mass/molar mass

= 3.006/367

= 0.00819 mol.

Since 2 moles of NaBr reacted to form 1 mole of PbBr2. Therefore, moles of NaBr = 2*0.00819

= 0.01638 moles of NaBr.

Since, the ionic equation is

NaBr(aq) --> Na+(aq) + Br-(aq)

Since 1 moles of NaBr dissociation in solution to give 1 mole of Br-

Therefore, molar concentration of Br-

= 0.0164/0.25 L

= 0.0655 mol/L.

B.

PbBr2

C.

Pb(NO3)2(aq)--> Pb2+(aq) + 2No3^2-(aq)

2NaBr(aq) --> 2Na+(aq) + 2Br-(aq)

Net ionic equation:

Pb2+(aq) + 2Br- --> PbBr2(s)

What is the theoretical yield of aluminum that can be produced by the reaction of 60.0 g of aluminum oxide with 30.0 g of carbon
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer: 31.8 g

Explanation:

To calculate the moles :

\text{Moles of solute}=\frac{\text{given mass}}{\text{Molar Mass}}    

\text{Moles of} Al_2O_3=\frac{60.0g}{102g/mol}=0.59moles

\text{Moles of} C=\frac{30.0g}{12g/mol}=2.5moles

Al_2O_3+3C\rightarrow 2Al+3CO  

According to stoichiometry :

1 mole of Al_2O_3 require 3 moles of C

Thus 0.59 moles of Al_2O_3 will require=\frac{3}{1}\times 0.59=1.77moles  of C

Thus Al_2O_3 is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of product and C is the excess reagent as it is present in more amount than required.

As 1 mole of Al_2O_3 give = 2 moles of Al

Thus 0.59 moles of Al_2O_3 give =\frac{2}{1}\times 0.59=1.18moles  of Al

Mass of Al=moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=1.18moles\times 27g/mol=31.8g

Thus 31.8 g of Al will be produced from the given masses of both reactants.

2C4H10+1302 -&gt; 8CO2 + 10H₂O
kondaur [170]

Answer:

.137 moles

Explanation:

need to know the molar mass of water which is 18.01528 g/mol

2.46 g of H₂O divided 18.01528 g/mol molar mass H₂O = moles of H₂O

2.46 divided by 18.01528 =

.137 moles

C4H10 is butane

butane is commonly used in cigarette lighters

2C4H10+1302 -> 8CO2 + 10H₂O is the burning of butane

burning butane with oxygen makes carbon dioxide and water
