Answer:

Calcium

Explanation:

We must first put down the reaction equation as this will serve as a guide in solving the question.

M(s) + S(s) -----> MS(s)

According to the reaction equation; 1 mole of metal reacts with 1 mole of sulphur. Hence 0.09 moles of sulphur reacts with 0.09 moles of metal.

Now recall that;

Number of moles (n) = mass(m)/ molar mass(M)

Since

mass of metal reacted= 3.6g

Number of moles of metal= 0.09 moles

Then;

Making molar mass of metal the subject of the formula;

Molar mass of metal = mass of metal / number of moles of metal

Molar mass of metal = 3.6g /0.09 moles

Molar mass of metal= 40 gmol-1

The metal having a molar mass of 40gmol-1 is calcium, therefore the metal is calcium.

bekas [8.4K]

Answer:

2C3H8O + 9O2 ==> 6CO2 + 8H2O ... balanced equation

moles propanol = 5.26 g x 1 mol/60.1 g = 0.0875 moles

moles O2 = 31.8 g x 1 mol/31.9 g = 0.997 moles O2

Propanol is limiting based on the mol ratio in balance equation of 2 : 9

To find mass of O2 (excess reagent) left over, we will first find moles O2 used up.

moles O2 used = 0.0875 mol propanol x 9 mol O2/2 mol propanol = 0.394 moles O2 used

moles O2 left over = 0.997 mol - 0.394 mol = 0.603 mol O2 left

mass O2 left = 0.603 mol O2 x 32 g/mol = 19.3 g O2 left over

Leni [432]

Answer:

Of course it's C

Red planet

Explanation:

It is because the soil on Mars is rich of Fe (Iron).

That makes the soil look red.

Even on our planet we have such this places like hormuz island in Iran.

Si uno pone un hilo en un hielo y un poco de sal el hilo se levanta el hilo con el hielo. Por que sé relaciona con calor y tempe
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

El hielo encierra la primavera antes de espolvorear la sal.

Cuando se rocía sal sobre el hielo, disminuye el punto de fusión del hielo 32 ° F a un poco por debajo de 32 °, por lo tanto, se acumula.

A medida que el hielo se vuelve a congelar, encierra la primavera

What is the gasoline doing to our environment?
luda_lava [24]
Gasoline use contributes to air pollution
Gasoline is a toxic and highly flammable liquid. The vapors given off when gasoline evaporates and the substances produced when gasoline is burned (carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, particulate matter, and unburned hydrocarbons) contribute to air pollution. Burning gasoline also produces carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas.
