The element that is a nonmetal, a gas, and has an element symbol that starts with the letter a is Ar (Argon).
Element Ar (Argon) is the third member of noble gases, in period 8, and makes up about 1% of the Earth's atmosphere. It has approximately the same solubility as oxygen and it is 2.5 times as soluble in water as nitrogen. It is an inert element that is colorless and odorless in both its liquid and gaseous forms.
Answer:
Mass of CO₂ produced = 5.72 g
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of methane = 2.34 g
Mass of oxygen = 8.32 g
Mass of CO₂ produced = ?
Solution:
Chemical equation:
CH₄ + 2O₂ → CO₂ + 2H₂O
Number of moles of methane:
Number of moles = mass/molar mass
Number of moles = 2.34 g/ 16 g/mol
Number of moles = 0.146 mol
Number of moles of oxygen:
Number of moles = mass/molar mass
Number of moles = 8.32 g/ 32 g/mol
Number of moles = 0.26 mol
Now we will compare the moles of carbon dioxide with oxygen and methane.
CH₄ : CO₂
1 : 1
0.146 : 0.146
O₂ : CO₂
2 : 1
0.26 : 1/2×0.26 = 0.13 mol
Less number of moles of CO₂ are produced by oxygen thus oxygen will react as limiting reactant.
Mass of CO₂:
Mass = number of moles × molar mass
Mass = 0.13 mol × 44 g/mol
Mass = 5.72 g
Answer:
Potassium cation = K⁺²
Explanation:
The metal cation in K₂SO₄ is K⁺². While the anion is SO₄²⁻.
All the metals have tendency to lose the electrons and form cation. In given compound the metal is potassium so it should form the cation. The overall compound is neutral.
The charge on sulfate is -2. While the oxidation state of potassium is +1. So in order to make compound overall neutral there should be two potassium cation so that potassium becomes +2 and cancel the -2 charge on sulfate and make the charge on compound zero.
2K⁺² , SO₄²⁻
K₂SO₄
In 1 mole of propane, there are 44 grams
so, X moles = 6.2 grams
Cross multiply: 44x = 6.2
x = 0.14 moles
(In scientific notation) The answer is B
