How many moles of aluminum oxide will be formed from 17 moles of aluminum reaction?
Ainat [17]

Answer:

8.5 moles of Al₂O₃ will formed

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of Al = 17 mol

Number of moles of Al₂O₃ formed = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

4Al  +  3O₂     →     2Al₂O₃

Now we will compare the moles of Al₂O₃  with Al.

                  Al            :            Al₂O₃      

                   4            :              2

                   17           :            2/4×17 = 8.5 mol

8.5 moles of Al₂O₃ will formed.

Calculate the empirical formula of each of the following substances with the following compositions.
OleMash [197]

Explanation:

Note: Molar masses of elements can be found online or in the periodic table.

Moles of Magnesium

= 3.60g / (24.3g/mol) = 0.148mol.

Moles of Chlorine

= 10.65g / (35.45g/mol) = 0.300mol.

Mole ratio of Magnesium to Chlorine

= 0.148mol : 0.300mol = 1 : 2.

Hence we have the empirical formula MgCl2.

Moles of Lithium

= 9.1g / (6.94g/mol) = 1.311mol.

Moles of Oxygen

= 10.4g / (16g/mol) = 0.650mol.

Moles ratio of Lithium to Oxygen

= 1.311mol : 0.650mol = 2 : 1.

Hence we have the empirical formula Li2O.

The vapor pressure of liquid chloroform, CHCl3, is 100. mm Hg at 283 K. A 0.380 g sample of liquid CHCl3 is placed in a closed,
Katyanochek1 [597]

Answer:

a

No

b

100 mm Hg

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

The vapor pressure of CHCl3, is P = 100 \  mmHg =  \frac{100}{760}=  0.13156 \ atm

The temperature of CHCl3 is T  =  283 \  K

The volume of the container is V_c =  380mL =  380 *10^{-3}\  L

The temperature of the container is T_c  =  283 \  K

The mass of CHCl3 is m = 0.380 g

Generally the number of moles of CHCl3 present before evaporation started is mathematically represented as

n  =  \frac{m }{M }

Here M is the molar mass of CHCl3 with the value M  =  119.38 \ g/mol

=> n  =  \frac{ 0.380 }{119.38 }

=> n  =  0.00318 \  mols

Generally the number of moles of CHCl3 gas that evaporated is mathematically represented as

n_g  =  \frac{PV}{RT}

Here R is the gas constant with value R =  0.08206 L \  atm /mol\cdot  K

So

          n_g  =  \frac{0.13156* 380 *10^{-3} }{0.08206 * 283}

          n_g  =  0.00215 \  mols

Given that the number of moles of  CHCl3 evaporated is less than the number of moles of CHCl3  initially present , then it mean s that not all the liquid evaporated

At equilibrium the temperature of CHCl3 will be equal to the pressure of  air so the pressure at equilibrium is  100 mmHg
