Answer:
Explanation:
The temperature and amount of gas are constant, so we can use Boyle’s Law.
Data:
Calculations:
The answer is <span>increasing the surface area of Fe(s) and increasing the concentration of HCl(aq).
the rate of reaction can be increased if the interaction between the reactants in better. by increasing the surface area of a solid, such as Fe, you make more possible each molecule of Fe to interact with HCl. Also, by increasing the concentration of HCl, it mean there is more molecule of HCl to interact with Fe.</span>
One half-life: 5 grams
Two half-lives: 2.5 grams
Answer:
Explanation:
- For the balanced reaction:
<em>4Fe(s) + 3O₂(g) → 2Fe₂O₃(s).</em>
It is clear that 4 mol of Fe react with 3 mol of O₂ to produce 2 mol of Fe₂O₃.
- Firstly, we need to calculate the no. of moles of 35.8 grams of Fe metal:
no. of moles of Fe = mass/molar mass = (35.8 g)/(55.845 g/mol) = 0.64 mol.
- Now, we can find the no. of moles of O₂ is needed to react with the proposed amount of Fe:
<em><u>Using cross multiplication:</u></em>
4 mol of Fe is needed to react with → 3 mol of O₂, from stichiometry.
0.64 mol of Fe is needed to react with → ??? mol of O₂.
∴ The no. of moles of O₂ needed = (3 mol)(0.64 mol)/(4 mol) = 0.48 mol.
- Finally, we can get the volume of oxygen using the information:
<em>It is known that 1 mole of any gas occupies 22.4 L at standard P and T (STP).</em>
<em></em>
<em><u>Using cross multiplication:</u></em>
1 mol of O₂ occupies → 22.4 L, at STP conditions.
0.48 mol of O₂ occupies → ??? L.
∴ The no. of liters of O₂ = (0.48 mol)(22.4 L)/(1 mol) = 10.752 L.
