Answer:

2C(s, graphite)+ 3H₂(g) + ½O₂(g) ⟶ C₂H₅OH(ℓ)  

Explanation:

The thermodynamic standard state of elements and compounds is defined as their most stable state at 25 °C and 1 bar

The elements in ethanol, C₂H₅OH, are C, H, and O.

Their most stable states at standard conditions are C₂H₅OH(ℓ), C(s, graphite), H₂(g), and O₂(g)

The equation for the formation of ethanol from its elements is  then

2C(s, graphite) + 3H₂(g) + ½O₂(g) ⟶ C₂H₅OH(ℓ)

When 4.15 grams of silver nitrate is reacted with 1.11 grams of iron(III) chloride, which best represents the amount of silver c
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

The mass of silver chloride produced = 2.202 g

Explanation:

Equation of the reaction is given below

3AgNO₃(aq) + FeCl₃(aq) ----> 3AgCl(s) + Fe(NO₃)₃(aq)

molar mass of AgNO₃ = 170 g/mol

molar mass of FeCl₃ = 233.5 g/mol

molar mass of AgCl = 143.5 g/mol

3 moles of silver nitrate reacts with 1 mole of iron (iii) chloride to give 3 moles of silver nitrate

4.15 grams of AgNO₃ = 4.15/170 = 0.0244 moles of AgNO₃

1.11 grams of FeCl₃ = 1.11/233.5 = 0.0047 moles of FeCl₃

mole ratio of AgNO₃ to FeCl₃ = 0.0244/0.0047 = 5 : 1

therefore, FeCl₃ is the limiting reactant

0.0047 moles of FeCl₃ reacting will produce 0.0047 *  3 moles of AgCl = 0.0141 moles of AgCl

0.0141 moles of AgCl = 0.0141 * 143.5 g of AgCl = 2.02 g of AgCl =

Therefore mass of silver chloride produced = 2.202 g

What have six valence electrons
irina1246 [14]

Any element in group 18 has eight valence electrons (except for helium, which has a total of just two electrons). Examples include neon (Ne), argon (Ar), and krypton (Kr). Oxygen, like all the other elements in group 16, has six valence electrons.
