How many grams of water are produced if we react 3 moles of hydrogen with 3 moles of oxygen?

Chemistry

Answer:

About 60 grams

Explanation:

The balanced equation of the reaction is given as;

2H2(g) + O2(g) → 2H2O(l)

From the equation;

2 mol of H2 reacts with 1 mol of O2

3 mol of H2 would require 3/2 mol of O2 (considering the 2:1 ratio)

The limiting reactant is H2 as it would be used up before H2. It determines the amount of product that would be formed.

2 mol of H2 produces 2 mol of H2O

3 mol of H2 would produce 3 mol of H2O (Considering the 1 : 1 ratio)

Converting moles to mass;

Mass = Molar mass * Number of moles

Mass = 18 * 3 = 54 g

The correct option is; About 60 grams

When a gas is dissolved in a liquid, what happens when the pressure increases?

erik [133]

Answer: B, the gas is being squeezed out of the liquid.

Explanation: The gas does not want to be trapped inside of the liquid, so it is trying to force it’s way out. Therefore creating more pressure in the container or whatever the liquid is being held in.

Identify the covalent compounds based on the names of the compounds. barium nitrate dinitrogen tetroxide boron trifluoride ammon

noname [10]

Covalent compounds are composed of atoms that are linked via covalent bonds i.e. bonds formed by mutual sharing of electrons. This is in complete contrast to ionic compounds which are held together by ionic bonds, i.e. bonds formed by complete transfer of electrons from one atom to the other.

In the given examples we have:

Barium nitrate: Ba(NO3)2 - Ionic

Dinitrogen tetroxide: N2O4- Covalent

Boron trifluoride: BF3-Covalent

Ammonium sulfate: (NH4)2SO4- Ionic

Carbon tetrachloride: CCl4- Covalent

Barium chloride: BaCl2 - Ionic

Suppose that 0.1000 mole each of H2and I2are placed in a 1.000-L flask, stoppered, and the mixture is heated to 425oC. At equili

Katen [24]

Answer: The value of equilibrium constant for the given reaction is 56.61

Explanation:

We are given:

Initial moles of iodine gas = 0.100 moles

Initial moles of hydrogen gas = 0.100 moles

Volume of container = 1.00 L

Molarity of the solution is calculated by the equation:

$\text{Molarity of solution}=\frac{\text{Number of moles}}{\text{Volume}}$

$\text{Molarity of iodine gas}=\frac{0.1mol}{1L}=0.1M$

$\text{Molarity of hydrogen gas}=\frac{0.1mol}{1L}=0.1M$

Equilibrium concentration of iodine gas = 0.0210 M

The chemical equation for the reaction of iodine gas and hydrogen gas follows:

$H_2+I_2\rightleftharpoons 2HI$

Initial: 0.1 0.1

At eqllm: 0.1-x 0.1-x 2x

Evaluating the value of 'x'

$\Rightarrow (0.1-x)=0.0210\\\\\Rightarrow x=0.079M$

The expression of $K_c$ for above equation follows:

$K_c=\frac{[HI]^2}{[H_2][I_2]}$

$[HI]_{eq}=2x=(2\times 0.079)=0.158M$

$[H_2]_{eq}=(0.1-x)=(0.1-0.079)=0.0210M$

$[I_2]_{eq}=0.0210M$

Putting values in above expression, we get:

$K_c=\frac{(0.158)^2}{0.0210\times 0.0210}\\\\K_c=56.61$

Hence, the value of equilibrium constant for the given reaction is 56.61

Which of the following pairs of elements is most likely to form an ionic compound?1.Nitrogen and sulfur? OR 2. Magnesium and Flu

Fudgin [204]

Answer:

Magnesium and fluorine.

Explanation:

Ionic compounds are formed by the electrostatic attraction of cations and anions.

Cations, positive ions, are formed when atoms lose electrons, and anions, negative ions, are formed when atoms gain electrons.

When two different atoms have similar atraction for electrons (electronegativity) they will not donate to nor catch electrons from each other, so cations and anions will not be formed. Instead, the atoms would prefer to share electrons forming covalent bonds to complete their outermost shell (octet rule).

Then, in order to form ionic compounds the electronegativities have to substantially different. This situation does not happen between two nonmetal elements, which nitrogen and sulfur are. Then, you can predict safely that nitrogen and sulfur will not form an ionic compound.

Ionic compounds, then require the electronegativity difference that exist between some metals and nonmetals. Being magnesium an alkaline earth metal, its electronegativity is very low. On the other hand, fluorine the first element of the group 17, has the highest electronegativity of all the elements.Thus magnesium and fluorine will have enough electronegativity difference to justify the exchange of electrons, forming ions and, consequently, ionic compounds.
