It should be scientific law since a hypothesis is like a prediction and a theory could be used to explain something although it might not be true. There’s many theories just to explain one thing. So it should be scientific law
Nitrogen is a non-metal and aluminum is a metal so the bond would be ionic.
Stoichiometry is not really hard if you are good with your numbers. All you have to do is pay close attention and follow you teacher because if you don't you will end up like me not knowing what you are doing. Listen and pay real close attention and I can guarantee you it will be just fine!
The reaction equation is:
<span>2CuO(s) + C(s) </span>→ <span>2Cu(s) + CO</span>₂<span>(g)
First, we determine the number of grams present in one ton of copper oxide. This is:
1 ton = 9.09 x 10</span>⁵ g
We convert this into moles by dividing by the molecular mass of copper oxide, which is:
9.09 x 10⁵ / 79.5 = 11,434 moles
Each mole of carbon reduces two moles of copper oxide, so the moles of carbon required are:
11,434 / 2 = 5,717 moles of Carbon required
The mass of carbon is then:
5,717 x 12 = 68,604 grams
The mass of coke is:
68,604 / 0.95 = 72,214 g
The mass of coke required is 7.22 x 10⁴ grams
