Answer:

1361.166 g Al2O3 and 240.3 g Carbon.

Explanation:

Okay, let us start by writing out the balanced Chemical equation of the reaction. The Chemical equation of the reaction below shows the synthesis of Aluminum from Aluminum oxide and carbon.

4 Al2O3 + 3 C ---------> 4 Al + 3CO2.

From the reaction above 4 moles of aluminum oxide react with 3 moles of 3 carbon to give 4 moles of aluminum and 3 moles of Carbondioxide.

Step one: find the number of moles of Aluminum.

Number of moles = mass / molar mass.

The mass of Aluminum given from the question= 573 g. Therefore, the number of moles, n = 573 / 27 grams per mole = 21.2 moles.

Step two: Calculate the theoretical yield. So, the number of moles of carbon= 21.2 × (3/4) = 15.9 moles of carbon.

Number of moles of Aluminum oxide = 21.2 × ( 2/4). = 10.6 moles of Al2O4.

Note that we are given that the reaction proceed to 79.3 percent yield, then, we can calculate the actual yield.

So, for Aluminum, we have;

21.2 × (100/ 79.3). = 26.7 moles of Aluminum.

==> For carbon; 26.7 × (3/4) = 20.025 moles.

===> For Al2O3; 26.7 × ( 2/4). = 13.35 moles.

Step three: conversion of the moles to grams.

Using the formula;

Mass = moles × molar mass.

==> Mass of carbon = 20.025 × 12 = 240.3 g.

===> Mass of Al2O3 = 13.35 × 101.96.

= 1361.166 g.

Answer:

1387.2g of Al2O3

Explanation:

The number of moles of aluminum oxide required to give the actual yield is obtained from the given mass of aluminum produced by the reaction. The percentage yield is used to obtain the theoretical yield of the aluminum. The number of moles produced theoretically can be used to calculate the amount of aluminum oxide required in moles and when we multiply the value obtained by the molar mass of aluminum oxide, we obtain the mass of aluminum oxide required.

Calculate the number of moles of C2H6 in 6.29×1023 molecules of C2H6.
Kipish [7]

1.05moles

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Number of molecules of C₂H₆ = 6.29 x 10²³molecules

Unknown:

Number of moles = ?

Solution:

The mole is the amount of substances that contains Avogadro's number of particles i.e 6.02 x 10²³

 To find the number of moles:

  number of moles = \frac{number of particles}{Avogadro's number}

  number of moles = \frac{6.29 x 10^{23} }{6.02 x 10^{23} }

  number of moles = 1.05moles

Estimate your de Broglie wavelength when you are running. (For this problem use h = 10^−34 in SI units and 1 lb is equivalent to
AlekseyPX

Answer:

A. your running speed 1.5 m/s

B. your mass 70 kg

C. your de Broglie wavelength 6.32x10^{-36}m

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since the equation for the calculation of the Broglie wavelength is:

\lambda =\frac{h}{m*v}

We can assume a running speed of about 1.5 m/s and a mass of 70 kg, so the resulting Broglie wavelength is:

\lambda =\frac{6.626x10^{-34}kg\frac{m}{s} }{70kg*1.5\frac{m}{s} }\\\\\lambda =6.32x10^-36m

Best regards!

TRIPLE POINTS!!! I NEED HELP!!! PLEASE EXPLAIN TOO!!! What is the energy of a quantum of light with a frequency of 4.31 x 1014 1
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

The answer is

2.86 \times  {10}^{ - 19}  \: J

Explanation:

The energy of a quantum of light can be found by using the formula

<h3>E = hf</h3>

where

E is the energy

f is the frequency

h is the Planck's constant which is

6.626 × 10-³⁴ Js

From the question

f = 4.31 × 10¹⁴ Hz

We have

E = 4.31 × 10¹⁴ × 6.626 × 10-³⁴

We have the final answer as

2.86 \times  {10}^{ - 19}  \: J

Hope this helps you

What happens to the ions when the drain is turned off? please help :] ❤️
kkurt [141]

Answer:

In a long channel MOSFET, the width of the pinch-off region is assumed small relative to the length of the channel. Thus, neither the length nor the voltage across the inversion layer change beyond the pinch-off, resulting in a drain current independent of drain bias. Consequently, the drain current saturates.
