How many moles of KOH are required to produce 4.79 g K3PO4 according to the following reaction? 3KOH + H3PO4 -----> K3PO4 + 3
8_murik_8 [283]

Answer:

0.677 moles

Explanation:

Take the atomic mass of K = 39.1, O =16.0, P = 31.0

no. of moles = mass / molar mass

no. of moles of K3PO4 used = 4.79 / (39.1x3 + 31 + 16x4)

= 0.02256 mol

From the equation, the mole ratio of KOH : K3PO4 = 3 :1,

meaning every 3 moles of KOH used, produces 1 mole of K3PO4.

So, using this ratio, let the no. of moles of KOH required to be y.

\frac{3}{1} =\frac{y}{0.02256} \\

y = 0.02256 x3

y = 0.0677 mol

If you don't find exactly 0.677 moles as one of the options, go for the closest one. A very slight error may occur because of taking different significant figures of atomic masses when calculating.

A useful single-displacement reaction involves thermite, which is a
Licemer1 [7]
The reaction of iron (III) oxide and aluminum is initiated by heat released from a small amount "starter mixture". This reaction is an oxidation-reduction reaction, a single replacement reaction, producing great quantities of heat (flame and sparks) and a stream of molten iron and aluminum oxide which pours out of a hole in the bottom of the pot into sand.

The balanced chemical equation for this reaction is:

2 Al(s) + Fe2O3(s) --> 2Fe(s) + Al2O3(s) + 850 kJ/mol

Curriculum Notes
This chemical reaction can be used to demonstrate an exothermic reaction, a single replacement or oxidation-reduction reaction, and the connection between ∆H calculated for this reaction using heats of formation and Hess' Law and calculating ∆H for this reaction using qrxn = mc∆T and the moles of limiting reactant. This reaction also illustrates the role of activation energy in a chemical reaction. The thermite mixture must be raised to a high temperature before it will react.

To determine how much thermal energy is released in this reaction, heats of formation values and Hess' Law can be used.

By definition, the deltaHfo of an element in its standard state is zero.

2 Al(s) + Fe2O3(s) --> 2Fe (s) + Al2O3 (s)

The deltaH for this reaction is the sum of the deltaHfo's of the products - the sum of the deltaHfo's of the reactants (multiplying each by their stoichiometric coefficient in the balanced reaction equation), i.e.:

deltaHorxn = (1 mol)(deltaHfoAl2O3) + (2 mol)(deltaHfoFe) - (1 mol)(deltaHfoFe2O3) - (2 mol)(deltaHfoAl)

deltaHorxn = (1 mol)(-1,669.8 kJ/mol) + (2 mol)(0) - (1 mol)(-822.2 kJ/mol) - (2mol)(0 kJ/mol)

deltaHorxn = -847.6 kJ

The melting point of iron is 1530°C (or 2790°F).

The difference between cow stomach and human stomach​
andreyandreev [35.5K]

The primary distinction between the digestive systems of cows and humans is that the former uses a foregut fermenter while the latter uses a straightforward monogastric digestion. The types of teeth, mouths, stomachs, guts, and digestive enzymes released by the gut also vary between the two digestive systems. Cows and humans have different digestive systems because they have evolved two different sorts of dietary patterns based on their capacities. The primary distinctions between the digestive systems of cows and humans are in the types of teeth, mouths, stomachs, and intestines, as well as the enzymes released.

Which statement best describes the structure of covalent network solids? A. They are giant structures held together by weak forc
konstantin123 [22]

Answer: Option (B) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A covalent compound is a compound formed by sharing of electrons. And, in a covalent network solid atoms are bonded by covalent bonds in a continuous network that is extending throughout the material or solid.

This continuous arrangement of atoms are like a lattice.

For example, diamond is a covalent network solid in which carbon atoms are arranged in a continuous lattice like structure.

Hence, we can conclude that the statement all the atoms are covalently bonded to other atoms to form a lattice-like structure, best describes the structure of covalent network solids.
