Answer:

a) Iron(ll) acetate tetrahydrate: 245,68 g/mol

b) Sulfur tetrachloride: 173,87 g/mol

c) Potassium ermanganate 158,034 g/mol

Explanation:

To solve this kind of exercises you must look for the number of atoms in each molecule first, then look on the periodic table the atom weight and the multiply the atom weight times the quantity of each atom. For instance:

The molecule of Iron(II) acetate itetrahydrate is (CH3COO)2Fe•4H2O, it means that you have:

2 atoms of carbon times the atomic weight of C (12.00g/mol)= 24g

14 atoms of Hidrogen times the atomic weight of H (1,00g/mol)= 14g

6 atoms of Oxigen times the atomic weight of O (16,0g/mol)= 96

2 atoms of Iron times the atomic weight of Fe (55,84g/mol)= 111,68g

At last, you only have to add the results: 24+14+96+11,68= 245,68g/mol. This example was for the first molecule.

A 10 gram sample of iron reacts with oxygen to form 18.2 grams of ferric oxide. How many grams of oxygen reacted?
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 8.2 \ grams}}

Explanation:

According to the Law of Conservation of Mass, the mass of the products must equal the mass of the reactants.

  • mass products = mass reactants

In this problem, the reaction is:

iron + oxygen = ferric \ oxygen

  • The reactants are iron and oxygen. We know the mass of the iron sample is 10 grams.
  • The product is ferric oxide. The mass of the ferric oxide sample is 18.2 grams.

10 \ g + oxygen=18.2 \ g

We want to find how many grams of oxygen reacted. We have to get the oxygen by itself. 10 is being added to oxygen. The inverse of addition is subtraction. Subtract 10 from both sides of the equation.

10 \ g - 10 \ g+ oxygen = 18.2 \ g - 10 \ g

oxygen= 18.2 \ g - 10 \ g

oxygen= 8.2 \ g \\

<u>8.2 grams of oxygen </u>reacted with 10 grams of iron to form 18.2 grams of ferric oxide.

Which of the following electron configurations describes an element that is a noble gas?
butalik [34]

Answer:

The answer to your question is: letter D.

Explanation:

Noble gases are located in group VIIIA of the periodic table, this means that they have 8 eight electrons in their outermost shell.

Due to this characteristic, they are stable and do not react with other elements.

a. 1s22s22p4    The outermost shell of this electron configuration has 6 electrons, then this element has 6 electrons not 8. This configuration is of an element of the group VIA.

b. [Ne]2s22p2  The outermost shell of this element has 4 electrons, so this is not the configuration of a noble gas.

c. [Ar] 3s1  This element only has one electron in its outermost shell, so this is the electron configuration of an alkaline metal.

d. 1s22s22p6 This element has 8 electrons in its outermost shell, so this is the electron configuration of a noble gas.

Sodium chloride is produced from its elements
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

                     Mass of Sodium  =  574.75 g

                     Mass of Chlorine  =  886.25 g

Explanation:

                   The  balance chemical equation for the synthesis of NaCl is,

                                        2 Na + Cl₂ → 2 NaCl

Step 1: <u>Find out moles of each reactant required,</u>

According to balance chemical equation,

                 2 moles of NaCl is produced by  =  2 moles of Na

So,

         25 moles of NaCl will be produced by  =  X moles of Na

Solving for X,

                     X  =  25 mol × 2 mol /  2 mol

                     X  =  25 moles of Na

Similarly for Cl₂,

According to balance chemical equation,

                 2 moles of NaCl is produced by  =  1 mole of Cl₂

So,

         25 moles of NaCl will be produced by  =  X moles of Cl₂

Solving for X,

                     X  =  25 mol × 1 mol /  2 mol

                     X  =  12.5 moles of Cl₂

Step 2: <u>Convert each moles to mass as;</u>

Mass  =  Moles × Atomic Mass

For Na,

Mass  =  25 mol × 22.99 g/mol

Mass  =  574.75 g

For Cl₂,

Mass  =  12.5 mol × 70.90 g/mol

Mass  =  886.25 g
