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.

Calculate the energy (in kj/mol) required to remove the electron in the ground state for each of the following one-electron spec

Bess [88]

Explanation:

$E_n=-13.6\times \frac{Z^2}{n^2}ev$

where,

$E_n$ = energy of $n^{th}$ orbit

n = number of orbit

Z = atomic number

a) Energy change due to transition from n = 1 to n = ∞ ,hydrogen atom .

Z = 1

Energy of n = 1 in an hydrogen like atom:

$E_1=-13.6\times \frac{1^2}{1^2}eV=-13.6 eV$

Energy of n = ∞ in an hydrogen like atom:

$E_{\infty}=-13.6\times \frac{1^2}{(\infty)^2}eV=0$

Let energy change be E for 1 atom.

$E=E_{\infty}-E_1=0-(-13.6 eV)=13.6 eV$

$1 mole = 6.022\times 10^{-23}$

Energy for 1 mole = E'

$E'=6.022\times 10^{-23} mol^{-1}\times 13.6 eV$

$1 eV=1.60218\times 10^{-22} kJ$

$E'=6.022\times 10^{23}\times 13.6 \times 1.60218\times 10^{-22} kJ/mol$

$E'=1,312.17 kJ/mol$

b) Energy change due to transition from n = 1 to n = ∞ , $B^{4+}$ atom .

Z = 5

Energy of n = 1 in an hydrogen like atom:

$E_1=-13.6\times \frac{5^2}{1^2}eV=-340 eV$

Energy of n = ∞ in an hydrogen like atom:

$E_{\infty}=-13.6\times \frac{5^2}{(\infty)^2}eV=0$

Let energy change be E.

$E=E_{\infty}-E_1=0-(-340eV)=340 eV$

You have 100 g of Pb(NO3)2. How many moles is this?

topjm [15]

Answer:

0.302 moles

Explanation:

Data given

Mass of Pb(NO₃)₂ = 100 g

Moles of Pb(NO₃)₂ = ?

Solution:

To find mole we have to know about molar mass of Pb(NO₃)₂

So,

Molar mass of Pb(NO₃)₂ = 207 + 2[14 + 3(16)]

= 207 + 2[14 + 48]

= 207 + 124

Molar mass of Pb(NO₃)₂ = 331 g/mol

Formula used :

no. of moles = mass in grams / molar mass

Put values in above formula

no. of moles = 100 g / 331 g/mol

no. of moles = 0.302 moles

no. of moles of Pb(NO₃)₂ = 0.302 moles
