D. They should try to reproduce Dr. Maxwell's research to verify his results
Since X is 1 g, therefore O must be 0.1 g. Therefore:
moles O = 0.1 g / (16 g / mol) = 0.00625 mol
We can see that for every 3 moles of O, there are 2 moles
of X, therefore:
moles X = 0.00625 mol O (3 moles X / 2 moles O) =
0.009375 mol
Molar mass X = 1 g / 0.009375 mol
<span>Molar mass X = 106.67 g/mol</span>
Answer:
12.32 L.
Explanation:
The following data were obtained from the question:
Mass of CH4 = 8.80 g
Volume of CH4 =?
Next, we shall determine the number of mole in 8.80 g of CH4. This can be obtained as follow:
Mass of CH4 = 8.80 g
Molar mass of CH4 = 12 + (1×4) = 12 + 4 = 16 g/mol
Mole of CH4 =?
Mole = mass/Molar mass
Mole of CH4 = 8.80 / 16
Mole of CH4 = 0.55 mole.
Finally, we shall determine the volume of the gas at stp as illustrated below:
1 mole of a gas occupies 22.4 L at stp.
Therefore, 0.55 mole of CH4 will occupy = 0.55 × 22.4 = 12.32 L.
Thus, 8.80 g of CH4 occupies 12.32 L at STP.
Answer:
89°C
Explanation:
Combined Gas Law (P₁V₁)/T₁ = (P₂V₂)/T₂
(1.25 atm)(450 mL)/(65°C) = (0.89 atm)(865 mL)/T₂
8.653846154 = 769.85/T₂
T₂ = 769.85/8.653846154
T₂ = 88.96044444 = 89°C
Answer:
Explanation:
Law of conservation of mass:
According to the law of conservation mass, mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical equation.
Explanation:
This law was given by french chemist Antoine Lavoisier in 1789. According to this law mass of reactant and mass of product must be equal, because masses are not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.
Chemical equation:
Mg + HCl → H₂ + MgCl₂
24 g + 36.5 g = 2 g+ 95 g
60.5 g = 97 g
The reaction does not hold the law of conservation of mass, because it is not balanced.
Balanced chemical equation:
Mg + 2HCl → H₂ + MgCl₂
24 g + 73 g = 2 g+ 95 g
97 g = 97 g
this equation completely follow the law of conservation of mass.
