Answer:
5250 grams or 5.25 kg of carbon monoxide and 375 grams of hydrogen are required to form 6 kg of methanol.
Explanation:
The balanced reaction:
CO (g) + 2 H₂ (g) -> CH₃OH (l)
By stoichiometry of the reaction, the following amounts of moles of each compound participate in the reaction:
- CO: 1 mole
- H₂: 2 moles
- CH₃OH: 1 mole
Being the molar mass of each compound:
- CO: 28 g/mole
- H₂: 1 g/mole
- CH₃OH: 32 g/mole
By reaction stoichiometry, the following mass quantities of each compound participate in the reaction:
- CO: 1 mole* 28 g/mole= 28 grams
- H₂: 2 moles* 1 g/mole= 2 grams
- CH₃OH: 1 mole* 32 g/mole= 32 grams
Being 6 kg equivalent to 6000 grams (1 kg= 1000 grams), you can apply the following rules of three:
- If by stoichiometry 32 grams of methanol are formed from 28 grams of carbon monoxide, 6000 grams of methanol are formed from how much mass of carbon monoxide?

mass of carbon monoxide= 5250 grams= 5.25 kg
If by stoichiometry 32 grams of methanol are formed from 2 grams of hydrogen, 6000 grams of methanol are formed from how much mass of hydrogen?

mass of hydrogen= 375 grams
<u><em>5250 grams or 5.25 kg of carbon monoxide and 375 grams of hydrogen are required to form 6 kg of methanol. </em></u>
We use the periodic table in chemistry. The periodic tables of elements allows us to locate elements and see the atomic mass, the mass number, and the symbol of elements.
Rows are known as periods. And columns are known as groups.

The balanced reaction that describes the reaction between methane and oxygen to produce water and carbon dioxide is expressed CH4 + 2 O2 = CO2 +2H2O. Hence for 2 moles of methane used, 4 moles of oxygen are needed to react completely.
A compound is a substance made up of 2 or more elements
