According to Dalton's Atomic Theory, the <em>Law of Definite Proportion is applied when a compound is always made up by a fixed fraction of its individual elements.</em> This is manifested by the balancing of the reaction.
The reaction for this problem is:
H₂ + Cl₂ → 2 HCl
1 mol of H₂ is needed for every 1 mole of Cl₂. Assuming these are ideal gases, the moles is equal to the volume. So, if equal volumes of the reactants are available, they will produce twice the given volumes of HCl.
Answer:
4 1/2
Explanation:
Use a ratio to find your answer
4 6
----- = -------
3 x
Cross multiply to solve for x.
4x = 18
x = 18/4
x = 4 2/4 which is the same as 4 1/2
<span>2.51 grams
You want to prepare 19.16 g of some solution which will have 13.1% of it's mass being sucrose. So we just need to perform some simple multiplication:
19.16g * 0.131 = 2.50996g
Rounding to 3 significant figures gives 2.51 g.</span>
