30 POINTS! ----- How many moles of oxygen gas are needed to completely react with 145 grams of aluminum? Report your answer with

gladu [14]

First a balanced reaction equation must be established:
$4Al _{(s)} + 3 O_{2} _{(g)}$ → $2 Al_{2} O_{3}$

Now if mass of aluminum = 145 g
the moles of aluminum = (MASS) ÷ (MOLAR MASS) = 145 g ÷ 30 g/mol
= 4.83 mols

Now the mole ratio of Al : O₂ based on the equation is 4 : 3
[4Al + 3 O₂ → 2 Al₂O₃]

∴ if moles of Al = 4.83 moles
then moles of O₂ = (4.83 mol ÷ 4) × 3
= 3.63 mol (to 2 sig. fig.)

Thus it can be concluded that 3.63 moles of oxygen is needed to react completely with 145 g of aluminum.

A sample of vinegar has a hydronium concentration of 1.6 × 10-3 M. What is the pH of the vinegar?

loris [4]

PH is defined as the negative log of Hydronium Ion concentration.

So, in order to find the pH of vinegar, we find the negative log of its hydronium ion concentration.

$pH=-log[ H_{3}O^{+}] \\ \\ 
pH=-log(1.6 * 10^{-3}) \\ \\ 
pH=2.8$

So, the pH of given vinegar solution will be 2.8.

Therefore, the answer to this question is option B

How many molecules are in 100 g of C6H120,?*

Grace [21]

Answer:

3.37 × 10²³ molecules

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of C₆H₁₂O₆ = 100 g

Number of molecules = ?

Solution:

Number of moles of C₆H₁₂O₆:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 100 g/ 180.16 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.56 mol

Number of molecules:

1 mole contain 6.022 × 10²³ molecules

0.56 mol × 6.022 × 10²³ molecules /1 mol

3.37 × 10²³ molecules

Explain what would happen to the air temperature at Riverdale School over the course of the

Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

In each Amplify Science unit, students figure out

a phenomenon by asking questions, gathering

evidence, and coming up with an explanation of how

the phenomenon works. The Coherence Flowchart

visually represents the storyline of the unit, showing

the coherent flow of questions, evidence, and ideas that

support students as they build complex explanations

of the unit’s anchor phenomenon. The Coherence

Flowchart on the following pages (one chapter per

page) can be used to see the connections between

the questions that drive students’ experiences, the

evidence they gather, the ideas they figure out, and the

new questions that those ideas generate. The diagram

to the right explains the structure of a chapter in the
