We are given with the mass of  pure iron that reacts with oxygen to form an oxide which has a given mass as well. the mass of oxygen reacted is 8.15-6.25 g or 1.9 grams. THen we convert the mass of the reactants to moles. Iron is equal to 0.1119 moles and oxygen is equal to 0.1188. We divide each number to the less amount. Hence iron is 1 and oxygen is approx 1. The empirical formula hence is FeO or ferrous oxide or Iron (II) oxide.

The theoretical yield of a reaction is the amount of product obtained if the limiting reactant is completely converted to produc
Elis [28]

Answer: 9.9 grams

Explanation:

To calculate the moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}

a) moles of H_2

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{8.150g}{2g/mol}=4.08moles

b) moles of C_2H_4

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{9.330g}{28g/mol}=0.33moles

H_2(g)+C_2H_4(g)\rightarrow C_2H_6(g)

According to stoichiometry :

1 mole of C_2H_4 combine with 1 mole of H_2

Thus 0.33 mole of C_2H_4 will combine with =\frac{1}{1}\times 0.33=0.33 mole of H_2

Thus C_2H_4 is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of product.

As 1 mole of C_2H_4 give =  1 mole of C_2H_6

Thus 0.33 moles of C_2H_4 give =\frac{1}{1}\times 0.33=0.33moles  of C_2H_6

Mass of C_2H_6=moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=0.33moles\times 30g/mol=9.9g

Thus theoretical yield (g) of C_2H_6 produced by the reaction is 9.9 grams

Lead(II) nitrate and ammonium iodide react to form lead(II) iodide and ammonium nitrate according to the reaction Pb ( NO 3 ) 2
nikklg [1K]

Answer : The volume of NH_4I solution required is, 2.93 L

The number of moles of PbI_2 formed from the reaction is, 0.662 moles.

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the initial moles of Pb(NO_3)_2.

\text{Moles of }Pb(NO_3)_2=\text{Concentration of }Pb(NO_3)_2\times \text{Volume of solution}

\text{Moles of }Pb(NO_3)_2=0.700M\times 0.945L=0.662mol

Now we have to calculate the moles of NH_4I

The balanced chemical reaction is:

Pb(NO_3)_2(aq)+2NH_4I(aq)\rightarrow PbI_2(s)+2NH_4NO_3(aq)

From the balanced chemical reaction we conclude that,

As, 1 mole of Pb(NO_3)_2 react with 2 moles of NH_4I

So, 0.662 mole of Pb(NO_3)_2 react with 0.662\times 2=1.32 moles of NH_4I

Now we have to calculate the volume of NH_4I

\text{Volume of }NH_4I=\frac{\text{Moles of }NH_4I}{\text{Concentration of }NH_4I}

\text{Volume of }NH_4I=\frac{1.32mol}{0.450mol/L}=2.93L

Now we have to calculate the moles of PbI_2

From the balanced chemical reaction we conclude that,

As, 1 mole of Pb(NO_3)_2 react to give 1 moles of PbI_2

So, 0.662 mole of Pb(NO_3)_2 react to give 0.662 moles of PbI_2

Thus, the number of moles of PbI_2 formed from the reaction is, 0.662 moles.

Why does the flame go out on the Bunsen burner when the gas is turned off? (use the collision theory in your answer)
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

Explanation:

Well the gas is the fuel for the flame of course. The collision theory comes into play when the gas turns on, chemicals collide with one another. Then  reactions occur causing the flame. Then when you take away the fuel, the flame stops because there is no atoms or molecules to come together/collide with one another.

Sorry if its wrong or doesn't make sense... Wish you the best of luck on whatever your doing!
