You must burn 1.17 g C to obtain 2.21 L CO2 at
STP.
The balanced chemical equation is
C+02+ CO2.
Step 1. Convert litres of CO, to moles of CO2.
STP is 0 °C and 1 bar. At STP the volume of 1 mol
of an ideal gas is 22.71 L.
Moles of CO2= 2.21 L CO2 × (1 mol CO2/22.71 L
CO2) = 0.097 31 mol CO2
Step 2. Use the molar ratio of C:CO2 to convert
moles of CO to moles of C
Moles of C= 0.097 31mol CO2 × (1 mol C/1 mol
CO2) = 0.097 31mol C
Step 3. Use the molar mass of C to calculate the
mass of C
Mass of C= 0.097 31mol C × (12.01 g C/1 mol C) =
1.17 g C
It looks as if you are using the old (pre-1982)
definition of STP. That definition gives a value of
1.18 g C.
Solid Magnesium is considered as active metal so it reacts with strong acids like HCl and H₂SO₄ liberating Hydrogen gas according to the following equations:
Mg(s) + 2 HCl(aq) → MgCl₂(aq) + H₂(g)
Mg(s) + H₂SO₄(aq) → MgSO₄(aq) + H₂(g)
so the amount of solid magnesium decrease by addition of strong acid to it.
Chemical property because heat is not electrical.
You didn't ask a question just to let you know
Californium which is element 98, and americium:) those are a couple!! Hope that helps
