Answer:

0.092 %

Explanation:

The equation of the reaction can be computed as :

12CO_2_{(g)} + 11H_2O_{(l)} \to C_{12}H_{22}O_{11} + 12O_{2_(g)}

\Delta H = 5645 \ kJ

recall that; the number of moles = \dfrac{mass}{molar \ mass}

By applying the method of enthalpy of combustion for sucrose at the same time changing the time from hours to seconds, we can determine the total energy output.

i.e

=\dfrac{0.20g \ of \ sucrose }{m^2 \ 3600 \ s}\times \dfrac{1 \ mol}{342.34 \ g}\times 5.645 kJ/mol

= 9.16 \times 10^{-4} \ kJ/m^2 s

Given that the sun supplies about 1.0 kilowatt, to KJ/m² s, we have:

1.0 \dfrac{kW}{m^2 }= 1.0 \dfrac{kJ}{m^2 s}

Finally, the percentage of sunlight used to produce sucrose :

= \dfrac{9.16 \times 10^{-4} \ kJ/m^2 \ s}{1.0 \ kJ/m^2 . s} \times 100\%

= 0.092 %

Give the formulas for the following
zubka84 [21]

Li2O

Fe(NO3)3

Al2O3

CuCl2

ZnSO4

All you have to do here is make sure your charges are balanced when you write the compound. For example, Iron (III) has a +3 charge, and nitrate has a -1 charge. You need 3 nitrates to match that charge, hence Fe(NO3)3.

how many moles of sodium are needed to react with sulfuric acid to produce 3.75 moles of sodium sulfate according to the followi
anastassius [24]
Hello!
<span>
You'll need to react 7,5 moles of Sodium with sulfuric acid to produce 3.75 moles of sodium sulfate
</span>
First of all, you need to balance the reaction. The balanced reaction is shown below (ensuring that the Law of Conservation of Mass is met on both sides):

2Na + H₂SO₄ → Na₂SO₄ + H₂

Now, all that you have to do is to use molar equivalences in this reaction applying the coefficients to calculate the moles of Sodium that you'll need:

molesNa=3,75moles Na_{2} SO_4* \frac{2 moles Na}{1 mol Na_{2} SO_4} =7,5 moles Na
