mass of pentane : = 30.303 g
moles of Al₂(CO₃)₃ : = 0.147
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
Given
1. Reaction
C₅H₁₂+8O₂→6H₂O+5CO₂.
45.3 g water
2. 2AlCl₃ + 3MgCO₃ → Al₂(CO₃)₃ + 3MgCl₂
37.2 MgCO₃
Required
mass of pentane
moles of Al₂(CO₃)₃
Solution
1. mol water = 45.3 : 18 g/mol = 2.52
From equation, mol ratio of C₅H₁₂ : H₂O = 1 : 6, so mol pentane :
= 1/6 x mol H₂O
= 1/6 x 2.52
= 0.42
Mass pentane :
= mol x MW
= 0.42 x 72.15 g/mol
= 30.303 g
2. mol MgCO₃ : 37.2 : 84,3139 g/mol = 0.44
mol Al₂(CO₃)₃ :
= 1/3 x mol MgCO₃
= 1/3 x 0.44
= 0.147
The coefficients next to the symbols of entities indicate the number of moles of a substance produced or used in the chemical reaction.
sorry what us this i don't get it
