Answer:

Lithium oxide, Li₂O.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, according to the given amounts, it is possible to write down the chemical reaction as shown below:

$M_2O+H_2 \rightarrow 2M+H_2O$

Which means that the metallic oxide has the following formula: M₂O. Next, we can set up the following proportional factors according to the chemical reaction:

$5.00gM_2O*\frac{1molM_2O}{(2x+16)gM_2O}*\frac{2molM}{1molM_2O}*\frac{xgM}{1molM} = 2.32gM$

Thus, we perform the operations in order to obtain:

$\frac{10x}{2x+16}=2.32$

So we solve for x as shown below:

$10x = 2.32(2x+16)\\\\10x = 4.64x+37.12\\\\x = \frac{37.12}{10-4.64}\\\\x= 6.93 g/mol$

Whose molar mass corresponds to lithium, and therefore, the metallic oxide is lithium oxide, Li₂O.

Best regards!

For the following reaction, 22.9 grams of nitrogen monoxide are allowed to react with 5.80 grams of hydrogen gas. nitrogen monox

ololo11 [35]

Answer:

1) Maximun ammount of nitrogen gas: $m_{N2}=10.682 g N_2$

2) Limiting reagent: $NO$

3) Ammount of excess reagent: $m_{N2}=4.274 g$

Explanation:

The reaction

$2 NO (g) + 2 H_2 (g) \longrightarrow N_2 (g) + 2 H_2O (g)$

Moles of nitrogen monoxide

Molecular weight: $M_{NO}=30 g/mol$

$n_{NO}=\frac{m_{NO}}{M_{NO}}$

$n_{NO}=\frac{22.9 g}{30 g/mol}=0.763 mol$

Moles of hydrogen

Molecular weight: $M_{H2}=2 g/mol$

$n_{H2}=\frac{m_{H2}}{M_{H2}}$

$n_{H2}=\frac{.5.8 g}{2 g/mol}=2.9 mol$

Mol rate of H2 and NO is 1:1 => hydrogen gas is in excess

1) Maximun ammount of nitrogen gas => when all NO reacted

$m_{N2}=0.763 mol NO* \frac{1 mol N_2}{2 mol NO}*\frac{28 g N_2}{mol N_2}$

$m_{N2}=10.682 g N_2$

2) Limiting reagent: $NO$

3) Ammount of excess reagent:

$m_{N2}=(2.9 mol - 0.763 mol NO* \frac{1 mol H_2}{1 mol NO})*\frac{2 g H_2}{mol H_2}$

$m_{N2}=4.274 g$

Why is a thermocouple a good device for indicating the temperature in a car engine?

Anna35 [415]

A thermocouple is a sensor used to measure temperature. Thermocouples are made with two wires of different metals, joined together at one end to form a junction. ... Naturally, a thermocouple outputs a millivolt signal, therefore, as the resistance changes, the change in voltage can be measured.

According to the balanced equation shown below, 1.00 mole of oxalic acid, h2c2o4, reacts with _________ moles of permanganate io

zheka24 [161]

The balanced equation that shows the reaction between oxalic acid and permanganate ion in an acidic medium is: 2MnO4- + 5H2C2O4 + 6H+ -> 2Mn(2+) + 10CO2 + 8H2O. Thus, 1 mole of oxalic acid reacts with 0.4 mole of permanganate ion. This was obtained using stoichiometry:

1 mol H2C2O4 x (2 mol MnO4-/ 5 mol H2C2O4) = 0.4 mol MnO4-

In this redox reaction, the permanganate is reduced to manganese(II) ion.
