Answer is: <span>the empirical formula of enargite is Cu</span>₃AsS₄.<span>
If we use 100 grams of enargite:
n(Cu) = 48,41 g </span>÷ 63.55 g/mol.
n(Cu) = 0.761 mol.
n(As) = 19.02 g ÷ 74.92 g/mol.
n(As) = 0.254 mol.
n(S) = 32.57 g ÷ 32.065 g/mol.
n(S) = 1.016 mol.
n(Cu) : n(As) : n(S) = 0.761 mol : 0.254 mol : 1.016 mol / 0.254.
n(Cu) : n(As) : n(S) = 3 mol : 1 mol : 4 mol.

How many moles of Fluorine (F2) are<br><br> needed to completely react 8.0<br><br> moles of NF3?
Anna [14]

Answer:

12 moles of F₂

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:

N₂ + 3F₂ —> 2NF₃

From the balanced equation above,

3 moles of F₂ reacted to produce 2 moles of NF₃.

Finally, we shall determine the number of mole of F₂ needed to produce 8 moles of NF₃. This can be obtained as illustrated below:

From the balanced equation above,

3 moles of F₂ reacted to produce 2 moles of NF₃.

Therefore, Xmol of F₂ will react to produce 8 moles of NF₃ i.e

Xmol of F₂ = (3 × 8)/2

Xmol of F₂ = 12 moles

Thus, 12 moles of F₂ is needed for the reaction.
