<u>Answer:</u> The mass of water that would form is 11.52 grams

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the mass of trisilane, we use the equation:

\text{Density of substance}=\frac{\text{Mass of substance}}{\text{Volume of substance}}

Density of trisilane = 0.739g/cm^3

Volume of trisilane = 20.0cm^3

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.739g/cm^3=\frac{\text{Mass of trisilane}}{20.0cm^3}\\\\\text{Mass of trisilane}=(0.739g/cm^3\times 20.0cm^3)=14.78g

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}     .....(1)

Given mass of trisilane = 14.78 g

Molar mass of trisilane = 92.3 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Moles of trisilane}=\frac{14.78g}{92.3g/mol}=0.160mol

The chemical equation for the reaction of trisilane and oxygen gas follows:

Si_3H_8+5O_2\rightarrow 3SiO_2+4H_2O

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of trisilane produces 4 moles of water

So, 0.160 moles of trisilane will produce = \frac{4}{1}\times 0.160=0.64mol of water

Now, calculating the mass of water by using equation 1, we get:

Moles of water = 0.64 moles

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

0.64mol=\frac{\text{Mass of water}}{18g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of water}=(0.64mol\times 18g/mol)=11.52g

Hence, the mass of water that would form is 11.52 grams

Cuántos moles hay en 17.5 gramod de ZnCl2​
Aliun [14]

Explanation:

Zn=65

Cl2= 35+35=70

65+70=135g

1 mole ZnCl2 = 135g

x mole = 17.5g

17.5g × 1 mole/ 135g= 0.129 moles en 17.5g de ZnCl2

What is an asteroid?
LUCKY_DIMON [66]
Asteroids are rocky space debris that are formed from interspacial collisions and collection of dusty particles. our solar system has an enormous asteroid belt between Mars and Jupiter.

Jupiter also has more local asteroids that are locked to its gravitational pull.

Not to be confused with a comet or meteor.
