Answer:

1.Extensive property

2.Intensive property

Explanation:

Matter: It can be anything which occupy space and has mass.

Example:Wood , stone etc.

Substance:It is a matter .If matter has specific composition and chemical properties .Then , the matter is called substance.

For example: elements such as mercury, sodium etc.

All substance can be matter but all matter can not be substance.

Substance can be identified by two physical properties:

1.Extensive property

2.Intensive property

1.Extensive property: That property which depend on the amount of substance such as mass, length , volume etc.

Intensive property: That property which does not depend on the amount of substance such as density, boiling point, melting point etc.

By observing these properties we can identify a sample of matter as substance.

In the reaction FeCl2 + 2NaOH ->Fe(OH)2(s) + 2NaCl, if 6 moles of FeCl2 are added to 6 moles of Na0H, how many moles of NaOH

pogonyaev

Answer : The correct option is, (B) 6 mole

Explanation :

Given moles of $FeCl_2$ = 6 moles

Given moles of $NaOH$ = 6 moles

First we have to calculate the limiting and excess reagent.

The balanced chemical reaction is,

$FeCl_2+2NaOH\rightarrow Fe(OH)_2+2NaCl$

From the given balanced reaction, we conclude that

As, 1 moles of $FeCl_2$ react with 2 moles of $NaOH$

So, 6 moles of $FeCl_2$ react with $\frac{2}{1}\times 6=12$ moles of $NaOH$

From this we conclude that, $FeCl_2$ is an excess reagent and $NaOH$ is a limiting reagent because the given moles are less than the required moles and it limits the formation of product.

Thus, the number of moles of NaOH used up in the reaction = Required moles of NaOH - Given moles of NaOH

The number of moles of NaOH used up in the reaction = 12 - 6 = 6 moles

Therefore, the number of moles of NaOH used up in the reaction will be, 60 moles

How many moles are in 9.25E24 formulas units of sodium acetate?

Lelu [443]

Answer:

<h2>15.37 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

$n = \frac{9.25 \times {10}^{24} }{6.02 \times {10}^{23} } \\ = 15.365448...$

We have the final answer as

<h3>15.37 moles</h3>

Hope this helps you
