The balanced chemical equation between iron and oxygen to produce iron (III) oxide is,

4Fe(s) + 3O_{2}(g) ---> 2Fe_{2}O_{3}(s)

Mass of Fe = 227.8 g

Moles of Fe = 227.8 g Fe * \frac{1 mol Fe}{55.85 g Fe} = 4.079 mol Fe

Mass of oxygen = 128 g

Moles of O_{2} = 128 g O_{2}*\frac{1 mol O_{2}}{32 g O_{2}}= 4mol O_{2}

Calculating the limiting reactant: The reactant that produces the least amount of product will be the limiting reactant.

Mass of iron (III) oxide produced from Iron = 4.079 mol Fe * \frac{2 mol Fe_{2}O_{3}}{4 mol Fe}  *\frac{159.69 g Fe_{2}O_{3}}{1 mol Fe_{2}O_{3}} = 325.7 g Fe_{2}O_{3}

Mass of iron (III) oxide produced from oxygen=4 mol O_{2}*\frac{2 molFe_{2}O_{3}}{3 mol O_{2}}*\frac{159.69 g Fe_{2}O_{3}}{1 mol Fe_{2}O_{3}} =  425.84 g Fe_{2}O_{3}

Iron (Fe) produces the least amount of the product iron (III) oxide. So, Fe is the limiting reactant.

If you start with 1.000 gram sample of the isotope how much time would pass before you have just 0.100 grams of the isotope left
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

So, you're dealing with a sample of cobalt-60. You know that cobalt-60 has a nuclear half-life of

5.30

years, and are interested in finding how many grams of the sample would remain after

1.00

year and

10.0

years, respectively.

A radioactive isotope's half-life tells you how much time is needed for an initial sample to be halved.

If you start with an initial sample

Aclosed system contains an equimolar mixture of n-pentane and isopentane. Suppose the system is initially all liquid at 120°C an
garri49 [273]

Explanation:

The given data is as follows.

      T = 120^{o}C = (120 + 273.15)K = 393.15 K,  

As it is given that it is an equimolar mixture of n-pentane and isopentane.

So,            x_{1} = 0.5   and   x_{2} = 0.5

According to the Antoine data, vapor pressure of two components at 393.15 K is as follows.

               p^{sat}_{1} (393.15 K) = 9.2 bar

               p^{sat}_{1} (393.15 K) = 10.5 bar

Hence, we will calculate the partial pressure of each component as follows.

                 p_{1} = x_{1} \times p^{sat}_{1}

                            = 0.5 \times 9.2 bar

                             = 4.6 bar

and,           p_{2} = x_{2} \times p^{sat}_{2}

                         = 0.5 \times 10.5 bar

                         = 5.25 bar

Therefore, the bubble pressure will be as follows.

                           P = p_{1} + p_{2}            

                              = 4.6 bar + 5.25 bar

                              = 9.85 bar

Now, we will calculate the vapor composition as follows.

                      y_{1} = \frac{p_{1}}{p}

                                = \frac{4.6}{9.85}

                                = 0.467

and,                y_{2} = \frac{p_{2}}{p}

                                = \frac{5.25}{9.85}

                                = 0.527  

Calculate the dew point as follows.

                     y_{1} = 0.5,      y_{2} = 0.5  

          \frac{1}{P} = \sum \frac{y_{1}}{p^{sat}_{1}}

           \frac{1}{P} = \frac{0.5}{9.2} + \frac{0.5}{10.2}

             \frac{1}{P} = 0.101966 bar^{-1}              

                             P = 9.807

Composition of the liquid phase is x_{i} and its formula is as follows.

                   x_{i} = \frac{y_{i} \times P}{p^{sat}_{1}}

                               = \frac{0.5 \times 9.807}{9.2}

                               = 0.5329

                    x_{z} = \frac{y_{i} \times P}{p^{sat}_{1}}

                               = \frac{0.5 \times 9.807}{10.5}

                               = 0.467

Which two solutions would be the BEST choice for their experiment?
Margaret [11]

Solutions 1 and 3 because they are strong acids and a strong base. <u>Option A.</u>

<u />

Strong acids and strong bases are completely ionized in an aqueous solution. Weak acids and weak bases also ionize, but only partially and the reaction is reversible. So you know if an acid or base is strong or weak. A simple way to determine strength is to add the acid or base to water. A higher reactivity means a stronger acid or base.

One of the simplest tests to determine whether a solution is an acid or base is the litmus paper test. To do this, dip a special strip of paper so-called litmus paper into the solution and observe the color of the paper. Litmus paper turns red in acidic solutions and blue in basic solutions. Sodium hydroxide is the strongest base because it completely dissociates to form sodium and hydroxide ions. These hydroxide ions are further treated with hydrogen ions by an acid to completely ionize the hydrogen ions.

Find the specific heat of an unknown material with an initial temperature of 20°C, when 5000 Joules are applied to a 50 gram sam
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

2J/g°C

Explanation:

Q = 5000J

Initial temperature (T1) = 20°C

Final temperature (T2) = 70°C

Specific heat capacity (c) = ?

Heat energy (Q) = mc∇T

Q = mc∇T

Q = mc(T2 - T1)

5000 = 50 × c × (70 - 20)

5000 = 50c × 50

5000 = 2500c

c = 5000 / 2500

c = 2J/g°C

The specific heat capacity of the substance is 2J/g°C
