1 mol of Carbon = 12 grams.
x mol of Carbon = 55 grams

12*x = 1 * 55
x = 55/12
x = 4.583333 mols of carbon

1 mol of anything is 6.02 * 10^23 atoms
4.58333333 mol = x

1/4.5833333 = 6.02 * 10^23/x
x = 4.58333* 6.02*10^23
x = 2.7591 * 10^23 Carbon atoms

how many grams of oxygen are produced if 25.0g of potassium chlorate decomposes according to the reaction 2KCLO3 —-> 2KCL +3O
AveGali [126]

Answer:

approximately 15.1 grams.

Explanation:

The key to chemistry is to change everything to moles. Then when you have the answer in moles change the answer back to grams, liters, or whatever you want.

change 25 grams of potassium chlorate to moles.

calculate the gram molecular mass of potassium chlorate.

Chlorate is Cl with 3 oxygens. ate = saturated. Chlorine has seven valance electrons when it is saturated six of these electrons are used by oxygen ( 2 electrons per oxygen) leaving only 1 electron.

1 K x 39 grams/mole

+1 Cl x 35.4 grams/ mole

+3 O x 16 grams/ mole

= 122.4 grams / mole Potassium Chlorate

25

122.4

= moles.

2.05 moles of Potassium Chlorate.

There is a 1:1 mole ratio. 1 mole of Potassium Chlorate will produce 1 mole of Potassium Chloride.

2.05 moles of Potassium Chlorate will produce 2.05 moles of Potassium Chloride.

Find the gram molecular mass of Potassium Chloride.

1 K x 39 = 39

+1 Cl x 35.4 = 35.4

= 74.4 grams / mole.

2.05 moles x 74.4 grams/ mole = 15.2 grams

Hope it helps :)

Chloroform is a liquid once used for anesthetic. What is the volume of 5.0 g of chloroform? The density of chloroform 1.49 g/mL
mario62 [17]

Answer:

3.3557047 mL

Explanation:

The density can be found using the following formula:

d=\frac{m}{v}

Let's rearrange the formula to find the volume, v.

d*v=\frac{m}{v}*v

d*v=m

\frac{d*v}{d} =\frac{m}{d}

v=\frac{m}{d}

The volume can be found by dividing the mass by the density. The mass of the chloroform is 5 grams and the density is 1.49 grams per milliliter. Therefore,

m= 5g \\d= 1.49 g/mL

Substitute the values into the formula.

v=\frac{5g}{1.49 g/mL}

Divide. When we divide, the grams, or g, in the numerator and denominator will cancel out.

v= \frac{5}{1.49}mL

v=3.3557047 mL

The volume of 5 grams of chloroform is 3.3557047 milliliters

Explain why the larger the hydrocarbon molecule is the more
RideAnS [48]

Answer:

Longer hydrocarbon molecules have a stronger intermolecular force. More energy is needed to move them apart so they have higher boiling points . This makes them less volatile and therefore less flammable
