What is the mass in grams for 7.14x10^3 mol of PCI3?
Shalnov [3]

Answer:

980,536.2 grams

Explanation:

The mass of a compound is equal to its moles times its molar mass.

The molar mass of PCl3 is 137.33 g/mol

137.33 x 7.14 x 10^3 = 980,536.2

When iron metal reacts with sulfuric acid, it produces iron (III) sulfate and hydrogen gas. Balance the equation: Fe + H2SO4 → F
gavmur [86]
<h3>Answer:</h3>
  1. Balanced Equation; 2Fe + 3H₂SO₄ → Fe₂(SO₄)₃ + 3H₂
  2. Why balance?: To obey the law of conservation of mass
  3. Subscripts can not be changed, since they show the actual number of atoms of each element in a compound.
<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • The balanced equation for the reaction between the iron metal and sulfuric acid to produces iron (III) sulfate and hydrogen gas is given by;

2Fe + 3H₂SO₄ → Fe₂(SO₄)₃ + 3H₂

  • Balancing chemical equations ensures that they obey the law of conservation of mass which requires the mass of reactants and the mass of products to be equal.
  • Balancing is done by putting coefficients on reactants and products while not affecting the subscripts as subscripts show the actual number of atoms of an element in a compound.

3 Na2O(aq) + 2 Al(NO3)3(aq) ----&gt; _ Compound A + _ Compound B
Olin [163]
3Na2O(at) + 2Al(NO3)3(aq) —> 6NaNO3(aq) + Al2O3(s)

This is a double replacement reaction and NaNO3 is aqueous because Na is an alkali metal, plus nitrate is in the solution. Both of these are soluble. Al2O3 is not soluble because it does not contain any element that is soluble and is hence the precipitate.

Hope this helped!
