Answer:
1.45 x 10⁻² g CO₂
Explanation:
To find the mass of carbon dioxide, you need to (1) convert grams CH₄ to moles CH₄ (via molar mass), then (2) convert moles CH₄ to moles CO₂ (via mole-to-mole ratio from reaction coefficients), and then (3) convert moles CO₂ to grams CO₂ (via molar mass). The final answer should have 3 sig figs to reflect the given value (5.30 x 10⁻³ g).
Molar Mass (CH₄): 12.011 g/mol + 4(1.008 g/mol)
Molar Mass (CH₄): 16.043 g/mol
Combustion of Methane:
1 CH₄ + 2 O₂ ---> 2 H₂O + 1 CO₂
Molar Mass (CO₂): 12.011 g/mol + 2(15.998 g/mol)
Molar Mass (CO₂): 44.007 g/mol
5.30 x 10⁻³ g CH₄ 1 mole 1 mole CO₂ 44.007 g

16.043 g 1 mole CH₄ 1 mole
= 0.0145 g CO₂
= 1.45 x 10⁻² g CO₂
The answer is true, particles in the gaseous state are the furthest apart
Answer:
71.372 g or 0.7 moles
Explanation:
We are given;
- Moles of Aluminium is 1.40 mol
- Moles of Oxygen 1.35 mol
We are required to determine the theoretical yield of Aluminium oxide
The equation for the reaction between Aluminium and Oxygen is given by;
4Al(s) + 3O₂(g) → 2Al₂O₃(s)
From the equation 4 moles Al reacts with 3 moles of oxygen to yield 2 moles of Aluminium oxide.
Therefore;
1.4 moles of Al will require 1.05 moles (1.4 × 3/4) of oxygen
1.35 moles of Oxygen will require 1.8 moles (1.35 × 4/3) of Aluminium
Therefore, Aluminium is the rate limiting reagent in the reaction while Oxygen is the excess reactant.
4 moles of aluminium reacts to generate 2 moles aluminium oxide.
Therefore;
Mole ratio Al : Al₂O₃ is 4 : 2
Thus;
Moles of Al₂O₃ = Moles of Al × 0.5
= 1.4 moles × 0.5
= 0.7 moles
But; 1 mole of Al₂O₃ = 101.96 g/mol
Thus;
Theoretical mass of Al₂O₃ = 0.7 moles × 101.96 g/mol
= 71.372 g
Isotopes are chemical elements with same atomic number (Z), but different mass number (different number of neutrons).
Hydrogen is an element with atomic number 1. It has three isotopes:
1) protium (₁¹H), with mass number 1 (no neutrons).
2) deuterium (₁²H), with mass number 2 (one neutrons, n° = 2 -1, n° = 1).
3) tritium (₁³H), with mass number 3 (two neutrons, n° = 3 -1, n° = 2).
