CH2OHCH2OH is a
general example of a polyhydroxyl alcohol. A polyhydroxyl alchol is one in which
there are two hydroxyl groups present in the substance. The –OH group attached
to both the carbon atoms.
Answer:
Mass of water produced is 22.86 g.
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of hydrogen = 2.56 g
Mass of oxygen = 20.32 g
Mass of water = ?
Solution:
Chemical equation:
2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O
Number of moles of oxygen:
Number of moles = mass/ molar mass
Number of moles = 20.32 g/ 32 g/mol
Number of moles = 0.635 mol
Number of moles of hydrogen:
Number of moles = mass/ molar mass
Number of moles = 2.56 g/ 2 g/mol
Number of moles = 1.28 mol
Now we will compare the moles of water with oxygen and hydrogen.
O₂ : H₂O
1 : 2
0.635 ; 2×0.635 = 1.27
H₂ : H₂O
2 : 2
1.28 : 1.28
The number of moles of water produced by oxygen are less thus it will be limiting reactant.
Mass of water produced:
Mass = number of moles × molar mass
Mass = 1.27 × 18 g/mol
Mass = 22.86 g
Both fission and fusion are nuclear reactions that produce energy, but the applications are not the same. Fission is the splitting of a heavy, unstable nucleus into two lighter nuclei, and fusion is the process where two light nuclei combine together releasing vast amounts of energy.
Answer:
The amount in grams of hydrogen gas produced is 0.551 grams
Explanation:
The parameters given are;
Number of atoms of potassium, aₙ = 3.289 × 10²³ atoms
Chemical equation for the reaction is given as follows;
2K + 2H₂O 
KOH + H₂
Avogadro's number, 
, regarding the number of molecules or atom per mole is given s follows;
= 6.02 × 10²³ atoms/mole
Therefore;
The number of moles of potassium present = 3.289 × 10²³/(6.02 × 10²³) = 0.546 moles
2 moles of potassium produces one mole of hydrogen gas, therefore;
1 moles of potassium produces 1/2 mole of hydrogen gas, and 0.546 moles of potassium will produce 0.546/2 moles of hydrogen which is 0.273 moles of hydrogen gas
The molar mass of hydrogen gas = 2.016 grams
Therefore, 0.273 moles will have a mass of 0.273×2.016 = 0.551 grams.
The amount in grams of hydrogen gas produced = 0.551 grams.
