Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf A. \ 2.48 \ mol \ Na_2O}}

Explanation:

We are asked to convert an amount in grams to moles. To do this, we use the molar mass. This is the number of grams in one mole of a substance. It is the same value numerically as the atomic mass on the Periodic Table, however the units are grams per mole, not atomic mass units.

Look up the molar masses for the individual elements.

  • Sodium (Na): 22.9897693 g/mol
  • Oxygen (O): 15.999 g/mol

Look back at the formula: Na₂O. Notice there is a subscript of 2 after sodium. This means there are 2 atoms of sodium in every molecule, so we have to multiply sodium's molar mass by 2 before adding oxygen's.

  • Na₂O: 2(22.9897693 g/mol)+ 15.999 g/mol = 61.9785386 g/mol

Set up a ratio using the molar mass.

\frac {61.9785386 \ g \ Na_2O}{1 \ mol \ Na_2O}

Multiply by the given number of grams.

154 \ g \ Na_2O*\frac {61.9785386 \ g \ Na_2O}{1 \ mol \ Na_2O}

Flip the ratio so the grams of sodium oxide can cancel each other out.

154 \ g \ Na_2O*\frac {1  \ mol \ Na_2O}{61.9785386 \ g \ Na_2O}

154 *\frac {1  \ mol \ Na_2O}{61.9785386 }

\frac {154}{61.9785386 }  \ mol \ Na_2O

2.48473106141 \ mol \ Na_2O

The original measurement of grams given has 3 significant figures, so our answer must have the same. For the number we calculated, that is the hundredth place.

  • 2.48<u>4</u>73106141

The 4 in the thousandth place tells us to leave the 8.

2.48 \ mol \ Na_2O

There are <u>2.48 moles of sodium oxide</u> in 154 grams, so choice A is correct.

Gases are measured in different units. Which of the following measurements of pressure are equal? Select all that apply.
viva [34]

Explanation:

Pressure of a gas is the combined force with which the molecules bombard a unit area of the wall of the container.

    1 atm  = 760mmHg

               = 760torr

               = 101325Pa

               = 101325Nm⁻²

 1mmHg  = 1torr

        1Pa = 1Nm⁻²

101.325 kPa  and 101,325 Pa are the same

           1000Pa = 1kPa

101,325 Pa  and 1 atm

1atm and 101.325 kPa

RATE LAW QUESTION !
vivado [14]
In general, we have this rate law express.:

\mathrm{Rate} = k \cdot [A]^x [B]^y
we need to find x and y

ignore the given overall chemical reaction equation as we only preduct rate law from mechanism (not given to us).

then we go to compare two experiments in which only one concentration is changed

compare experiments 1 and 4 to find the effect of changing [B]
divide the larger [B] (experiment 4)  by the smaller [B] (experiment 1) and call it Δ[B]

Δ[B]= 0.3 / 0.1 = 3

now divide experiment 4 by experient 1 for the given reaction rates, calling it ΔRate:

ΔRate = 1.7 × 10⁻⁵ / 5.5 × 10⁻⁶ = 34/11 = 3.090909...

solve for y in the equation \Delta \mathrm{Rate} = \Delta [B]^y

3.09 = (3)^y \implies y \approx 1

To this point, \mathrm{Rate} = k \cdot [A]^x [B]^1

do the same to find x.
choose two experiments in which only the concentration of B is unchanged:

Dividing experiment 3 by experiment 2:
Δ[A] = 0.4 / 0.2 = 2
ΔRate = 8.8 × 10⁻⁵ / 2.2 × 10⁻⁵ = 4

solve for x for \Delta \mathrm{Rate} = \Delta [A]^x

4=  (2)^x \implies x = 2

the rate law is

Rate = k·[A]²[B]
