Answer : The correct answer is Option D.

Explanation:

Ores are defined as natural occurring substance from which metals and another mineral are extracted.

Bauxite is primary ore of an aluminium metal. it doesn't have definite or specific chemical composition. This is because it contains mixture of hydrous aluminum oxide $Al_2O_3$ , aluminum hydroxides $Al(OH)_3$ , insoluble materials like hematite, quartz ,geothite ,magnetite etc.

From the given options the most appropriate statement which is correct about the bauxite is 'It does not have a definite chemical composition'.

Hence, the correct option Is (D).

How many moles of o2 are required for the complete reaction of 54.7 g of c2h4 to form co2 and h2o?

Hunter-Best [27]

The balanced chemical equation that illustrates this reaction is:
C2H4 + 3O2 --> 2CO2 + 2H2O

From the periodic table:
mass of carbon = 12 grams
mass of hydrogen = 1 gram
Therefore:
molar mass of C2H4 = 12(2) + 4(1) = 24 + 4 = 28 grams

number of moles = mass / molar mass
number of moles of C2H4 = 54.7 / 28 = 1.95 moles

From the balanced equation above:
3 moles of oxygen are required to react with one mole of C2H4, therefore, to know the number of moles required to react with 1.95 moles of C2H4, all you have to do is cross multiplication as follows:
number of oxygen moles = (1.95*3) / 1 = 5.85 moles
