Answer:

Fe₂O₃

Explanation:

Mass of Iron = 5.687 g

Mass of Iron oxide = 8.131 g

Mass of Oxide = Mass of Iron oxide - Mass of Iron

Mass of oxide = 8.131 - 5.687 = 2.444 g

Moles of Iron =  Mass / Molar mass = 5.687 / 55.845 = 0.1018 moles

Moles of Oxide  =  Mass / Molar mass = 2.444 / 16 = 0.15275 moles

To determine the formular, we have to find the smallest whole number ration that exists between the elements.

To do that, we divide by the smallest number;

Iron = 0.1018 / 0.15275 = 0.6664 = 2/3 (Approximately)

Oxygen = 0.15275 / 0.15275 = 1

To get the smallest whole number ratio, multiply all through by 3.

Iron = 2/3 * 3 = 2

Oxygen = 1 * 3 = 3

The formular will be;

Fe₂O₃

A student added 3 g of melted wax to a container that weighed 15 g. What is the weight of the container after the wax hardens?
koban [17]

The weight of the container after the wax hardens is 0.18 N.

<h3>What is the law of conservation of mass?</h3>

We know that according to the law of the conservation of mass, the mass of an object can neither be created nor destroyed but it can be changed from one form to the other.

Looking at this law, we know that the mass would not change even after the time that the wax must have hardened. The total mass of the wax would have to be a constant.

Total mass would now be;

Mass of the wax + mass of the container

= 3 g + 15 g

= 18 g

Weight = 18/1000 * 9.8 m/s^2

= 0.18 N

In nature, one common strategy to make thermodynamically unfavorable reactions proceed is to couple them chemically to reactions
padilas [110]

Answer:

\triangle G= -6.7 KJ/mol

Explanation:

From the question we are told that:

Chemical Reactions:

X=A⇌B,ΔG= 14.8 kJ/mol

Y=B⇌C,ΔG= -29.7 kJ/mol

Z=C⇌D,ΔG= 8.10 kJ/mol

Since

Hess Law

The law states that the total enthalpy change during the complete course of a chemical reaction is independent of the number of steps taken.

Therefore

Generally the equation for the Reaction is mathematically given by

T = +1 * X +1 * Y +1 *Z

Therefore the free energy, ΔG is

\triangle G=1 * \triangle G*X +1 * \triangle G*Y +1 * \triangle G *Z

\triangle G= +1 * (14.9) +1 * (-29.7) +1 * (8.10)

\triangle G= -6.7 KJ/mol

Which of the following is not a clue that a chemical reaction has taken place? *
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

A pure solid is heated and turns into a pure liquid.

Explanation:

No colour change recorded, only change of state, hence this is a physical change - physical changes I.e. change of state and temperature are not chemical reactions.

Rank the following from highest to lowest priority according to the Cahn-Ingold-Prelog system: -CH2CH3, -CHCH2, -CCH, -CH3.
mario62 [17]

Answer:

The order will be:

CCH > CHCH₂ > CH₂CH₃> CH₃

Explanation:

According to Cahn-Ingold-Prelog system we rank the groups based on the atomic number of directly attached atom with the chiral carbon.

For example: between C and H, we rank Carbon first.

If the same atoms are attached for different groups then we prioritized based on the second element with highest atomic number.

For example:

Among CH₃ and C₂H₅, the priority will be given to C₂H₅.

If an atom is double or triple bonded to the directly attached atom then each pi bond is considered to be a new atom.

Hence CH=CH₂ means, that there are two carbons attached to CH carbon.

So the order based on above selection rules will be:

CCH > CHCH₂ > CH₂CH₃> CH₃
