Answer:

167,3 grams of O2 (g)

Explanation:

According to the following balanced equation:

C3H8 + 5 02 ---> 3 CO2 + 4 H20

We calculate the mass of the moles:

5 mol O2 = 16grams/mol x2x 5= 160 grams/mol

1 mol C3H8= 3 x12 grams/mol + 8 x 1 gram/mol= 44 grams/mol

If 44 grams C3H8 react with--------- 160 grams O2

46 gramsC3H8 react with --------X = (46x160)/44 =167, 3 grams O2

Convert 25.4 grams of barium phosphate, Ba3(PO4)2 to formula units.

Salsk061 [2.6K]

To solve this questions you first need to find the number of moles of barium phosphate you have. The molar mass of barium phosphate is 601.93g/mol.
24.4/601.83 = 0.0402 moles barium phosphate
Then you need to use avagadro’s number, 6.022 x 10^23, which is the number of molecules or formula units in a mole.

6.022 x 10^23 * 0.0402 = 2.42 x 10^22 formula units

What is the % dissociation of a solution of acetic acid if at equilibrium the solution has a pH = 4.74 and a pKa = 4.74?

Ymorist [56]

Answer:

$\% diss = 50\%$

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, when considering weak acids which have an associated percent dissociation, we first need to set up the ionization reaction and the equilibrium expression:

$HA\rightleftharpoons H^++A^-\\\\Ka=\frac{[H^+][A^-]}{[HA]}$
