Answer: 17.34 grams of alum will be produced if 0.9875 g of Aluminium foil was used.

Explanation: Reaction to form alum from Aluminium is given as:

2Al(s)+2KOH(aq.)+2H_2O(l)+4H_2SO_4(aq.)\rightarrow 2KAl(SO_4)_2(s).12H_2O(l)+3H_2(g)

We are given Aluminium to be the limiting reactant, so the formation of alum will be dependent on Aluminium because it limits the formation of product.

By stoichiometry,

2 moles of Al is producing 2 moles of Alum

Mass of 2 moles of Aluminium = (2 × 27)g/mol = 54 g/mol

Mass of 2 moles of alum = (2 × 474)g/mol = 948 g/mol

54 g/mol of aluminium will produce 948 g/mol of alum, so

\text{0.9875 grams of aluminium will produce}=\frac{948g/mol}{54g/mol}\times 0.9875g

Amount of Alum produced = 17.34 grams

Theoretical yield of alum = 17.34 grams.

2. Chromium+oxygen - chromium(III) oxide <br>balanced​
sesenic [268]

Answer:

4Cr + 3O2 —> 2Cr2O3

Explanation:

Information from the question include:

Chromium + oxygen -> chromium(III) oxide

From the word equation given above, the equation can be written as follow:

Cr + O2 —> Cr2O3

The equation can be balance by doing the following:

There are 2 atoms of O on the left side and 3 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by putting 2 in front of Cr2O3 and 3 in front of O2 as shown below:

Cr + 3O2 —> 2Cr2O3

Now, we have 4 atoms of Cr on the right side and 1 atom on the left. It can be balance by putting 4 in front of Cr as shown below:

4Cr + 3O2 —> 2Cr2O3

Now the equation is balanced

What is formed when water chemically combines with carbon dioxide
solong [7]

When water chemically combines with carbon dioxide, a Carbonic acid is formed.

<u>Explanation</u>:

  • Carbon dioxide responds with water in a solution to form a weak acid, carbonic acid. Carbonic acid disassociates into hydrogen particles and bicarbonate particles. The hydrogen particles and water respond with the most basic minerals modifying the minerals.  
  • Carbon dioxide and the other atmospheric gases disintegrate in surface waters. Dissolved gases are in equilibrium with the gas in the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide responds with water in a solution to form the weak acid, carbonic acid. Carbonic acid disassociates into hydrogen particles and bicarbonate particles.  
  • The hydrogen particles and water respond with the most basic minerals altering the minerals. The results of enduring are prevalently clays and soluble particles, for example, calcium, iron, sodium, and potassium. Bicarbonate particles additionally remain in solution; a remnant of the carbonic acid that was utilized to weather the rocks.
