Coal containing 15.0% H2O, 2.0% S and 83.0% C by mass is burnt with the stoichiometric amount of air in a furnace. What is the m

Answer:

This is a coal combustion process and we will assume

Inlet coal amount = 100kg

It means that there are

15kg of H2O, 2kg of Sulphur and 83kg of Carbon

Now to find the mole fraction of SO2(g) in the exhaust?

Molar mass of S = 32kg/kmol

Initial moles n  of S = 2/32 = 0.0625kmols

Reaction:  S + O₂ = SO₂

That is 1 mole of S reacts with 1 mole of O₂ to give 1 mole of SO₂

Then, it means for 0.0625 kmoles of S, we will have 0.0625 kmole of SO2 coming out of the exhaust

The mole fraction of SO2(g) in the exhaust=0.0625kmols

Licemer1 [7]
The reaction of iron (III) oxide and aluminum is initiated by heat released from a small amount "starter mixture". This reaction is an oxidation-reduction reaction, a single replacement reaction, producing great quantities of heat (flame and sparks) and a stream of molten iron and aluminum oxide which pours out of a hole in the bottom of the pot into sand.

The balanced chemical equation for this reaction is:

2 Al(s) + Fe2O3(s) --> 2Fe(s) + Al2O3(s) + 850 kJ/mol

Curriculum Notes
This chemical reaction can be used to demonstrate an exothermic reaction, a single replacement or oxidation-reduction reaction, and the connection between ∆H calculated for this reaction using heats of formation and Hess' Law and calculating ∆H for this reaction using qrxn = mc∆T and the moles of limiting reactant. This reaction also illustrates the role of activation energy in a chemical reaction. The thermite mixture must be raised to a high temperature before it will react.

To determine how much thermal energy is released in this reaction, heats of formation values and Hess' Law can be used.

By definition, the deltaHfo of an element in its standard state is zero.

2 Al(s) + Fe2O3(s) --> 2Fe (s) + Al2O3 (s)

The deltaH for this reaction is the sum of the deltaHfo's of the products - the sum of the deltaHfo's of the reactants (multiplying each by their stoichiometric coefficient in the balanced reaction equation), i.e.:

deltaHorxn = (1 mol)(deltaHfoAl2O3) + (2 mol)(deltaHfoFe) - (1 mol)(deltaHfoFe2O3) - (2 mol)(deltaHfoAl)

deltaHorxn = (1 mol)(-1,669.8 kJ/mol) + (2 mol)(0) - (1 mol)(-822.2 kJ/mol) - (2mol)(0 kJ/mol)

deltaHorxn = -847.6 kJ

The melting point of iron is 1530°C (or 2790°F).

Hey I need help with this element, compound, and mixtures worksheet
Alika [10]

We should describe a little bit the legend.

A - Element - we should have circles with same color and not bonded together (argon gas).

B - Compound - here we may have circles with same or different color bonded together (water or oxygen which is a diatomic molecule).

C - Mixture of elements - circles with different colors not not bonded together (mixture of noble gases).

D - Mixture of compounds - circles with same or different color bonded together but we should see two or more types of connectivity between circles (mixture of water and ethanol).

E - Mixture of elements and compounds - circles with same or different color bonded together mixed with circles with same color and not bonded together (a mixture between oxygen which is a diatomic molecule and noble gas like argon).

Now we may answer the question:

1) B

2) C

3) D

4) D

5) A

6) B

7) B

8) E

9) E

10) D

11) B

12) D

13) D

14) D

15) D

131i has a half-life of 8.04 days. assuming you start with a 1.53 mg sample of 131i, how many mg will remain after 13.0 days ___
inn [45]
For this problem we can use half-life formula and radioactive decay formula.

Half-life formula,
t1/2 = ln 2 / λ

where, t1/2 is half-life and λ is radioactive decay constant.
t1/2 = 8.04 days

Hence,         
8.04 days    = ln 2 / λ                         
λ   = ln 2 / 8.04 days

Radioactive decay law,
Nt = No e∧(-λt)

where, Nt is amount of compound at t time, No is amount of compound at  t = 0 time, t is time taken to decay and λ is radioactive decay constant.

Nt = ?
No = 1.53 mg
λ   = ln 2 / 8.04 days = 0.693 / 8.04 days
t    = 13.0 days 

By substituting,
Nt = 1.53 mg e∧((-0.693/8.04 days) x 13.0 days))
Nt = 0.4989 mg = 0.0.499 mg

Hence, mass of remaining sample after 13.0 days = 0.499 mg

The answer is "e"
