Aluminum oxide forms when aluminum reacts with oxygen. 4Al(s) + 3O2(g) → 2Al2O3(s) A mixture of 82.49 g of aluminum (M.W.= 26.98

g/mol) and 117.65 g of oxygen (M.W. = 32.00 g/mol) is allowed to react. What mass of aluminum oxide (M.W. = 101.96 g/mol) can be formed?

Answer:

155.9 grams of aluminium oxide can be formed

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of aluminium = 82.49 grams

Molar mass of aluminium = 26.98 g/mol

Mass of oxygen = 117.65 grams

Molar mass of oxygen = 32.0 g/mol

Molar mass of aluminium oxide = 101.96 g/mol

Step 2: The balanced equation

4Al + 3O2 → 2Al2O3

Step 3: Calculate moles

Moles = mass / molar mass

Moles aluminium = 82.49 grams / 26.98 g/mol

Moles aluminium = 3.057 moles

Moles oxygen = 117.65 grams / 32.0 g/mol

Moles oxygen = 3.677 moles

Step 4: Calculate limiting reactant

For 4 moles Al we need 3 moles O2 to produce 2 moles Al2O3

Aluminium is the limiting reactant. It will completely be consumed (3.057 moles). Oxygen is in excess. There will react 3/4 * 3.057 = 2.293 moles

There will remain 3.677 - 2.293 = 1.384 moles

Step 5: Calculate moles aluminium oxide

For 4 moles Al we need 3 moles O2 to produce 2 moles Al2O3

For 3.057 moles Al we'll have 3.057/2 = 1.529 moles

Step 6: Calculate mass aluminium oxide

Mass aluminium oxide = 1.529 moles * 101.96 g/mol

Mass aluminium oxide = 155.9 grams

155.9 grams of aluminium oxide can be formed

Answer:

155.4 g of Al₂O₃

Explanation:

The reaction is:

4Al(s) + 3O₂(g) → 2Al₂O₃(s)

To determine the mass of aluminum oxide that is formed we need to know the limiting reagent. Let's calculate the moles of each by the molar mass

Mass / molar mass = Moles

82.49 g / 26.98 g/mol = 3.05 moles of Al

117.65 g / 32 g/mol = 3.67 moles of oxygen

Let's try the oxygen. Ratio is 3:4.

3 moles of O₂ need 4 moles of Al to react

Therefore 3.67 moles of O₂ will react with (3.67 . 4 )/3 = 4.90 moles

We only have 3.05 moles of Al, so the Al is the limiting reactant

Now, we work with stoichiometry

4 moles of Al can produce 2 moles of Al₂O₃

3.05 moles of Al will produce (3.05 .2) / 4 =  1.52 moles of Al₂O₃

We convert the moles to mass: 1.52 mol . 101.96 g / 1mol = 155.4 g

You are carefully watching the temperature of your melting point apparatus as it is heating up. At 132 C it is still a white sol
Lisa [10]

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

<em>Since the experiment is set out to determine the melting point of the white solid, after missing the melting point due to distraction, there are two possible solutions and both involves a repeat of the experiment.</em>

1. The first one is to allow the molten substance to solidify again and then repeat the experiment. This time around, a critical attention should be paid to be able to notice the melting point temperature once the temperature gets to 132 C.

2. The second solution would be discard the molten substance and repeat the experiment with the a new solid one. Similarly, critical attention should be paid once the temperature gets to 132 C since it is sure that the melting point lies within 132 and 138 C.
