Chemistry
1 answer:
wolverine [178]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

The equation in option D is balanced

D) 8CO2 + 3S8 → 8CS2 + 8SO2

Explanation:

A) Pb(NO3)2 + FeCl3 → Fe(NO3)3 + PbCl2

⇒ This equation is <u>NOT balanced</u>

⇒ On the left side we have 3x Cl, while on the right side we have 2x Cl. To balance the amount of Cl on both sides we have to multiply FeCl3 (on the left side) by 2 and PbCl2 (on the right side) by 3

Pb(NO3)2 + 2FeCl3 → Fe(NO3)3 + 3PbCl2

⇒ now we have 2x Fe on the left side and 1x Fe on the right side. To balance the amount of Fe on both sides, we have to multiply Fe(NO3)3 (on the right side) by 2

Pb(NO3)2 + 2FeCl3 → 2Fe(NO3)3 + 3PbCl2

⇒ On the left we have 1x Pb , on the right side we have 3x Pb. To balance the amount of Pb on both sides we have to multiply Pb(NO3)2 (on the left side) by 3. Now the equation is balanced.

3Pb(NO3)2 + 2FeCl3 → 2Fe(NO3)3 + 3PbCl2

B) C3H5(NO3)3 → CO2 + H2O + N2 + O2

⇒ This equation is NOT balanced

⇒ On the left side we have 5x H, on the right side we have 2x H. To balance the amount of H on both sides we have to multiply C3H5(NO3)3 (on the left side) by 2 and H2O (on the right side) by 5

2C3H5(NO3)3 → CO2 + 5H2O + N2 + O2

⇒ On the left side we have 6x C, on the right side we have 1xC

To balance the amount of C on both sides we have to multiply CO2 (on the right side) by 6.

2C3H5(NO3)3 → 6CO2 + 5H2O + N2 + O2

⇒ On the left side we have 6x N, on the right side we have 2N

To balance the amount of N on both sides we have to multiply N2 (on the right side) by 3

.

2C3H5(NO3)3 → 6CO2 + 5H2O + 3N2 + O2

⇒ Now we have 18x O on the left side and 19x O on the right side

To balance the amount of O we should multiply 2C3H5(NO3)3 (on the left side) by 2 and multiply  6CO2 + 5H2O + 3N2 (on the right side) each by 2.

Now the equation is balanced.

4C3H5(NO3)3 → 12CO2 + 10H2O + 6N2 + O2

C) Fe2O3(s) + C(s) → Fe(S) + CO2(g)

⇒ This equation is NOT balanced

⇒ On the left side we have 2x Fe, on the right side we have 1x Fe. To balance the amount of Fe on both sides, we have to multiply Fe (on the right side) by 2

Fe2O3(s) + C(s) →2Fe(S) + CO2(g)

⇒ On the left side we have 3x O, on the right side we have 2x O

To balance the amount of O on both sides. we have to mulitply Fe2O3 (on the left side) by 2 and CO2 (on the right side) by 3. Then we see that we have 4x Fe on the left side, so we have to multiply 2FE (on the right side) by 2 as well.

2 Fe2O3(s) + C(s) → 4Fe(S) + 3CO2(g)

⇒ On the right side we 3x C, on the left side we have 1x C. To balance the amount of C on both sides, we have to multiply C (on the left side) by 3. Now the equation is balanced.

2 Fe2O3(s) + 3C(s) → 4Fe(S) + 3CO2(g)

D) 8CO2 + 3S8 → 8CS2 + 8SO2

⇒ This equation is balanced !

A 0.75M solution of CH3OH is prepared in 0.500 kg of water. How many moles of CH3OH are needed?
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

We need 0.375 mol of CH3OH to prepare the solution

Explanation:

For the problem they give us the following data:

Solution concentration 0,75 M

Mass of Solvent is 0,5Kg

knowing that the density of water is 1g / mL,  we find the volume of water:

                           d = \frac{g}{mL} \\\\ V= \frac{g}{d}  = \frac{500g}{1 \frac{g}{mL} } = 500mL = 0,5 L

Now, find moles of CH_{3} OH are needed using the molarity equation:

                           M = \frac{ moles }{ V (L)} \\\\\\molesCH_{3}OH  = M . V(L) = 0,75 M . 0,5 L\\\\molesCH_{3}OH = 0,375 mol

therefore the solution is prepared using 0.5 L of H2O and 0.375 moles of CH3OH,  resulting in a concentration of 0,75M

An aqueous solution is listed as being 33.8% solute by mass with a density of 1.15 g/mL, the molar mass of the solute is 145.6 g
vodomira [7]

Answer:

A) 2.69 M

B) 0.059

Explanation:

A) We have:

33.8% solute by mass= 33.8 g solute/100 g solution

molarity = mol solute/ 1 L solution

molarity= \frac{33.8 g solute}{100 g solution} x \frac{1.15 g solution}{1 ml} x \frac{1 mol solute}{145.6 g solute} x \frac{1000 ml}{1 L}

molarity= 2.69 mol solute/L solution = 2.69 M

B) We know that there are 33.8 g of solute in 100 g of solution.

As the total solution is compounded by solute+solvent (in this case, solvent is water), the mass of water is the difference between the mass of the total solution and the mass of solute:

mass of water= 100 g - 33.8 g = 66.2 g

Now, we calculate the number of mol of both solute and water:

mol solute= 33.8 g solute x \frac{1 mol solute}{145.6 g} = 0.232 mol

mol H20= 66.2 g H₂O x \frac{1 mol H2O}{18 g}

Finally, the mol fraction of solute (Xsolute) is calculated as follows:

Xsolute=\frac{mol solute}{total mol}= \frac{mol solute}{mol solute + mol H2O}=\frac{0.232 mol}{0.232 mol + 3.677 mol}

Xsolute= 0.059
