Answer:

See Explanation

Explanation:

Let us find the number of moles of each element

For iron = 2.24g/56 = 0.04 moles

For oxygen = 0.96 g/16 = 0.06 moles

Then we divide by the lowest ratio;

0.04/0.04      and     0.06/0.04

1                      and     2

We Thus obtain 1 : 1.5

Multiplying through by 2 we have; 2 : 3

The formula of the oxide formed is Fe2O3

The balanced equation is;

4Fe + 3O2 ------> 2Fe2O3

A quantity of water is heated from 25.0°C to 36.4°C by absorbing 325 J of heat energy. If the specific heat of water is 4.18 J /
Arlecino [84]

Answer:

6,8 g

Explanation:

c = 4.18 J/(g * °C) = 4180 J / (kg * °C)

t_{1} = 25 °C

t_{2} = 36,4 °C

Q = 325 J

The formula is: Q = c * m * (t_{2} - t_{1})

m = \frac{Q}{c * (t_{2} - t_{1} )}

Calculating:

m = 325 / 4180 * (36,4 - 25) ≈ 0,0068 kg = 6,8 g

Answer:

                     1. 10.66 moles of Al

                     2.  2.5 moles of Al₂O₃

                     3. 143.87 g of SO₂

Explanation:

                    The balance chemical equation is as follow,

                                      4 Al + 3 O₂ → 2 Al₂O₃

<h3>1.</h3>

According to balance chemical equation,

                       3 moles of O₂ required  =  4 moles of Al

So,

                     8 moles of O₂ will require  =  X moles of Al

Solving for X,

                      X =  8 mol × 4 mol / 3 mol

                      X =  10.66 moles of Al

<h3>2.</h3>

According to balance chemical equation,

                       4 moles of Al produced  =  2 moles of Al₂O₃

So,

                     5 moles of Al will produce  =  X moles of Al₂O₃

Solving for X,

                      X =  5 mol × 2 mol / 4 mol

                      X =  2.5 moles of Al₂O₃

<h3>3.</h3>

The balance chemical equation for the oxidation of carbon disulfide is as follow;

                                CS₂ + 3 O₂ → CO₂ + 2 SO₂

Step 1: <u>Calculate Moles of CS₂ as;</u>

                  Moles  =  Mass / M.Mass

                  Moles  =  85.5 g / 76.14 g/mol

                  Moles  =  1.12 moles of CS₂

Step 2: <u>Find out moles of SO₂ as;</u>

According to balance chemical equation,

                       1 mole of CS₂ produced  =  2 moles of SO₂

So,

                     1.12 moles of CS₂ will produce  =  X moles of SO₂

Solving for X,

                      X =  1.12 mol × 2 mol / 1 mol

                      X =  2.24 moles of SO₂

Step 3: <u>Calculate Mass of SO₂ as;</u>

                  Mass  =  Moles × M.Mass

                  Mass  =  2.24 mol × 64.06 g/mol

                  Mass  =  143.87 g of SO₂

C: Ms. Bakare has two bottles of sulfuric acid, X and Y. There is one litre of acid in each bottle.
umka2103 [35]

Acid of x bottle is highly reactive because solute is more and acid of y bottle is less reactive because solvent is more.
