Answer:

7.38654 in 54 grams

Explanation:

To get moles, you divide grams of a substance by molecular weight. The molecular weight of CO2 is 44 g/mol. 54g divided by 44/mol is 1.227moles.

You then need to multiply moles by Avogadro’s constant (6.022x10^23). That gives you 7.38654x10^23 molecules in 54 grams of CO2.

A student balances the following redox reaction using half-reactions.

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer: 6.

Explanation:

1) Aluminum

$Al^0-3e^----\ \textgreater \ Al^{3+}$

So each atom of aluminum lost 3 electrons to pass from 0 oxidation state to 3+ oxidation state.

2) Manganesium

$Mn^{2+}+2e^{-}---\ \textgreater \ Mn$

So, each ion of Mn(2+) gained 2 electrons pass from 2+ oxidation state to 0.

3) Balance

Multiply aluminum half-reaction (oxidation) by 2 and multiply manganesium half-raction (reduction) by 3:

$2Al^{0}-6e^{-}---\ \textgreater \ 2Al^{3+}

3Mn^{2+}+6e^{-}---\ \textgreater \ 3Mn^{0}$

4) Net equation

Add the two half-equations:

$2Al^{0}+3Mn^{2+}----\ \textgreater \ 2Al^{3+}+3Mn^{0}$

As you see the left side has 2 Al, 3Mn, and 3*2 positive charges.

The right side has 2 Al, 3 Mn, and 2*3 positive charges.

So, the equation is balanced.

5) Count the number of electrons involved.

As you see 2 atoms of aluminum lost 6 electrons (3 each).

That is the answer to the question. 6 electrons will be lost.

How many atoms of gold are in gold nugget with a mass of 4.25 g

Feliz [49]

Number of Atoms in Gold for given mass can be calculated using following formula,

# of Moles = Number of Atoms / 6.022 × 10²³
Or,
Number of Atoms = Moles × 6.022 × 10²³ ------- (1)

Calculating Moles,
As,
Moles = Mass / M.mass
So,
Moles = 4.25 g / 196.96 g/mol

Moles = 0.0215

Putting value of mole in eq.1,

Number of Atoms = 0.0215 × 6.022 × 10²³

Number of Atoms = 1.299 × 10²²

Result:
4.25 g of Gold Nugget contains 1.299 × 10²² Atoms.
