Answer:

$n_{P_2O_5}^{max}=1.4molP_2O_5$

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the reaction between phosphorous and oxygen to form diphosphorous pentoxide is:

$2P+\frac{5}{2}O_2\rightarrow P_2O_5$

Thus, since phosphorous is in excess and oxygen and diphosphorous pentoxide are in a 5/2:1 mole ratio, we can compute the maximum moles of product as shown below:

$n_{P_2O_5}^{max}=112 gO_2*\frac{1molO_2}{32.00gO_2}*\frac{1molP_2O_5}{5/2molO_2}\\\\ n_{P_2O_5}^{max}=1.4molP_2O_5$

Best regards!

Why can’t there be a temperature lower than absolute zero

Firdavs [7]

Atoms cannot physically get more compact (temperature lowering increases the space between atoms) At absolute zero, the atoms are as physically close together as allowed by the physical laws governing it.

Use the reaction given below to solve the problem that follows: Calculate the mass in grams of aluminum oxide produced by the re

bearhunter [10]

Answer: 28.4 g of aluminum oxide is produced by the reaction of 15.0 g of aluminum metal

Explanation:

To calculate the moles :

$\text{Moles of solute}=\frac{\text{given mass}}{\text{Molar Mass}}$

$\text{Moles of} Al=\frac{15.0g}{27g/mol}=0.556moles$

The balanced chemical equuation is:

$4Al+3O_2\rightarrow 2Al_2O_3$

According to stoichiometry :

4 moles of $Al$ produce == 2 moles of $Al_2O_3$

Thus 0.556 moles of $Al$ will produce= $\frac{2}{4}\times 0.556=0.278moles$ of $Al_2O_3$

Mass of $Al_2O_3=moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=0.278moles\times 102g/mol=28.4g$

Thus 28.4 g of aluminum oxide is produced by the reaction of 15.0 g of aluminum metal.

What is percentage composition?

blondinia [14]

Answer:

The percent composition of a component in a compound is the percent of the total mass of the compound that is due to that component. To calculate the percent composition of a component in a compound: Find the molar mass of the compound by adding up the masses of each atom.

Robert has pure samples of both D-ribose and D-arabinose, but he forgot to label them. He only has some nitric acid, the reagent

Sauron [17]

Answer:

Following are the responses to the given question:

Explanation:

Since HN03 is an oxidation substance D-ribose u.ith oxidized to form in rubric acid Ribose is chiral, but rubric acid is achiral because of its symmetry mirror level, Hence no infrared roster in the sample holder is observed.

Please find the attached file.

D-Arabinose, on either hand, gives optical aldaric acid with such a net optical rotation observed inside the polarimeter for diagnosis with HN03.
