Answer: The correct option is A.

Explanation: Moles of Iron nail can be calculated by using the formula:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}       ...(1)

Given mass of iron nail = 100 g

Molar mass of iron = 56 g/mol

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{100g}{56g/mol}

Number of moles of iron nail = 1.79 moles

The chemical equation for the formation of rust if given by:

4Fe(s)+3O_2(g)\rightarrow 2Fe_2O_3(s)

By Stoichiometry of the reaction,

4 moles of iron reacts with 3 moles of oxygen gas to produce 2 moles of rust.

So, 1.79 moles of iron will react with = \frac{3}{4}\times 1.79 = 1.3425 moles of oxygen gas.

For oxygen gas,

Molar mass = 32 g/mol

Mass of oxygen can be calculated by using equation 1, we get

1.3425mol=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{32g/mol}

Mass of oxygen gas = 43 grams

Hence, the correct option is a.

Use a chemical equation to show how aqueous hno3 fits the definition of an acid
Lunna [17]
An acid has several definitions one would be that it is a proton donor and an electron donor. Also, it said to produce an H+ ion when in solution. For nitric acid in solution, it dissociates into ions which are NO- ions and H+ ions. So, it must be an acid. It has a dissociation reaction:

HNO3 = H+ + NO3-

During the phosphatase experiment you will use a 1% w/v of phenolphthalein di-phosphate (PPP). How much PPP do you need to make
MrMuchimi

Answer:

To make 500 mL of a solution of PPP 1% w/v you need 5g

Explanation:

A percent w/v solution is calculated with the following formula using the gram as the base measure of weight (w):

% w/v = g of solute/ mL of solution × 100

A 1% w/v means that you have 1 g of PPP per 100 mL of solution

Thus, if you need to make 500 mL of solution you will need 5 g of PPP.

I hope it helps!
