Option B: B2O3

In order to make a compound, it has to be neutral. We have to combine the +3 charged and the -2 charges until they cancel out.

The only possible compound is B2O3, since the positive charges add up to +6 and the negative charges add up to -6.

The formula is B2O3. The charges need to equal each other to obtain a neutral compound of no charge hence 2 B has a charge of +6 and 3 O has a charge of -6 to cancel out each other, resulting in a stable uncharged compound.

Predict the mass of iron (III) sulfide produced when 3.0 g of iron filings react completely with 2.5 g of yellow sulfur solid, S
777dan777 [17]
1) Chemical equation

16Fe(s) + 3S8(s) ---> 8Fe2S3

2) Molar ratios:

16 mol Fe : 3 mole S8 : 8 mol Fe2S3

3) Convert masses in grams to number of moles

number of moles = mass in grams / molar mass

a) iron, Fe

mass = 3.0 g
atomic mass = 55.845 g/mol

=> number of moles of Fe = 3.0g / 55.845 g/mol = 0.0537 mol

b) Sulfur, S8

mass = 2.5 g
molar mass = 8*32.065 g/mol = 256.52 g/mol

=> number of moles of S8 = 2.5g / 256.52 g/mol = 0.009746 mol

4) Limiting reactant

Theoretical ratio                           actual ratio

16 mol Fe / 3 mol S8                 0.0537 mol Fe / 0.009746 mol S8

5.33                                               5.50

So, there is a little bit more Fe than the theoretical needed to react all the S8, which means the S8 is the limiting reactant.

5) Calculate the number of moles of iron (III) produced with 2.5 g (0.009746 moles) of S8

3moles S8 / 8 moles Fe2S3 = 0.009746 moles S8 / x

=> x = 0.009746 * 8 / 3 moles Fe2S3 = 0.026 moles Fe2S3

6) Convert 0.026 moles Fe2S3 into grams

mass in grams = number of moles * molar mass

molar mass of Fe2S3 = 207.9 g/mol

mass = 0.026 mol * 207.9 g/mol = 5.40 g

7) Answer: option D)

Contact [7]

The bone tissue contains many small pauses this is most likely caused by osteoporosis.

<h3>What is osteoporosis?</h3>

Osteoporosis is a health condition that weakens bones, making them fragile and more likely to break.

Osteoporosis causes bones to become weak and brittle — so brittle that a fall or even mild stresses such as bending over or coughing can cause a fracture.

Osteoporosis-related fractures most commonly occur in the hip, wrist or spine.

Bone is living tissue that is constantly being broken down and replaced.

Hence, the bone tissue contains many small pauses this is most likely caused by osteoporosis.

HURRYYY!!!!<br> Convert 7.13 x 10^28 atoms of calcium (Ca) to moles of calcium.
puteri [66]

Answer:

<h2>118,438.5 moles</h2>

Explanation:

To find the number of moles in a substance given it's number of entities we use the formula

n =  \frac{N}{L}\\

where n is the number of moles

N is the number of entities

L is the Avogadro's constant which is

6.02 × 10²³ entities

From the question we have

n =  \frac{7.13 \times  {10}^{28} }{6.02 \times  {10}^{23} }  \\  = 118438.538...

We have the final answer as

<h3>118,438.5 moles</h3>

Hope this helps you

lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

15.35 g of (NH₄)₃PO₄

Explanation:

First we need to look at the chemical reaction:

3 NH₃ + H₃PO₄ → (NH₄)₃PO₄

Now we calculate the number of moles of ammonia (NH₃):

number of moles = mass / molecular wight

number of moles = 5.24 / 17 = 0.308 moles of NH₃

Now from the chemical reaction we devise the following reasoning:

if         3 moles of NH₃ are produce 1 mole of (NH₄)₃PO₄

then   0.308 moles of NH₃ are produce X moles of (NH₄)₃PO₄

X = (0.308 × 1) / 3 = 0.103 moles of (NH₄)₃PO₄

mass = number of moles × molecular wight

mass = 0.103 × 149 = 15.35 g of (NH₄)₃PO₄
