Answer:

122.3 g of Fe₂O₃ is the maximum amount formed

Explanation:

Our reactants for the reaction:

89.5 g of Fe

36.9 g of O₂

We convert the mass of each to moles:

89.5 g of Fe . 1 mol / 55.85 g = 1.60 moles

36.9 g of O₂ . 1mol / 32g = 1.15 moles

The reaction is  4Fe(s) + 3O₂(g) →  2Fe₂O₃ (s)

We determine the limiting reactant:

4 moles of Iron can react with 3 moles of O₂

Therefore 1.60 moles of Iron will react with (1.60 .3) / 4 = 1.2 moles

Oxygen is the limiting reactant; we need 1.2 moles, and we only have 1.15.

Then we work with the stoichiometry again.

3 moles of oxygen can produce 2 moles of Fe₂O₃

1.15 moles of oxygen may produce (1.15 . 2) / 3 = 0.766 moles of Fe₂O₃

We convert the moles to mass: 0.766 mol . 159.7 g /1mol = 122.3 g of Fe₂O₃

What is the voltage of a galvanic cell made with zinc (zn) and aluminum (al)?
bonufazy [111]
From the reduction standard potentials;
The emf of Zinc = -0.76 V
and the emf of Aluminium = -1.66 V
In a galvanic cell the component with lower standard reduction potential gets oxidized and that it is added to the anode compartment. 
Therefore. the voltage of a galvanic cell made with zinc and aluminium will be;
Voltage =Ered- Eoxd
             = -0.76 - (-1.66)
             = 0.9 V

With 21 g of Zinc, and 7 g of CuCl2, how much ZnCl2 is made in grams?
mina [271]

Answer: 7.07 grams

Explanation:

To calculate the moles :

\text{Moles of solute}=\frac{\text{given mass}}\times{\text{Molar Mass}}    

\text{Moles of} zinc=\frac{21g}{65g/mol}=0.32moles

\text{Moles of} CuCl_2=\frac{7g}{134g/mol}=0.052moles

Zn+CuCl_2\rightarrow Cu+ZnCl_2

According to stoichiometry :

1 mole of CuCl_2 require 1 mole of Zn

Thus 0.052 moles of CuCl_2 will require=\frac{1}{1}\times 0.052=0.052moles  of Zn

Thus CuCl_2 is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of product and Zn is the excess reagent.

As 1 mole of CuCl_2 give = 1 mole of ZnCl_2

Thus 0.052 moles of CuCl_2 give =\frac{1}{1}\times 0.052=0.052moles  of ZnCl_2

Mass of ZnCl_2=moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=0.052moles\times 136g/mol=7.07g

Thus 7.07 g of ZnCl_2 will be produced from the given masses of both reactants.

What type of radioactive decay involves only the release of high-energy photons and therefore does not change the mass of an ato
Irina-Kira [14]
Answer is: gamma emission or gamma decay.
<span>During gamma emission the nucleus emits radiation without changing its composition, if for example have nucleus with six protons and six neutrons (carbon atom) and after gamma decay there is nucleus with six protons and six neutrons.
</span>Gamma rays are the electromagnetic waves with the shortest wavelengths (1 pm), highest frequencies (300 EHz) and highest energy (1,24 MeV).

A radioactive element reduces to 5.00% of its initial mass in
Stolb23 [73]

The half-life in months of a radioactive element that reduce to 5.00% of its initial mass in 500.0 years is approximately 1389 months

To solve this question, we'll begin by calculating the number of half-lives that has elapsed. This can be obtained as follow:

Amount remaining (N) = 5%

Original amount (N₀) = 100%

<h3>Number of half-lives (n) =?</h3>

N₀ × 2ⁿ = N  

5 × 2ⁿ = 100

2ⁿ = 100/5

2ⁿ = 20

Take the log of both side

Log 2ⁿ = log 20

nlog 2 = log 20

Divide both side by log 2

n = log 20 / log 2

<h3>n = 4.32</h3>

Thus, 4.32 half-lives gas elapsed.

Finally, we shall determine the half-life of the element. This can be obtained as follow.

Number of half-lives (n) = 4.32

Time (t) = 500 years

<h3>Half-life (t½) =? </h3>

t½ = t / n

t½ = 500 / 4.32

t½ = 115.74 years

Multiply by 12 to express in months

t½ = 115.74 × 12

<h3>t½ ≈ 1389 months </h3>

Therefore, the half-life of the radioactive element in months is approximately 1389 months

What type of compound involves the transfer of electrons?
astra-53 [7]

Answer: Electrovalent or Ionic Compounds

Explanation:

Electrovalent Compounds Form bonds that are characterised by transfer of electrons from metallic atoms to non-metal licenses atoms during a chemical reaction.

The metallic atom after donating their valence electrons, become positively charged, while the non-metal license atoms becomes negatively charged after acquiring extra electrons.

A typical example of electrovalent compounds can be found between the association of Group 1(Alkali Metals) elements and the Group 7(Halogen Family) elements.
