Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf Mass \ of \ products \ = \ mass \ of \ reactants}}$

Explanation:

The Law of Conservation of Mass states that mass cannot be created or destroyed.

In a chemical reaction, there are products and reactants. The reactants <em>react</em> and <em>produce</em> the products.

Since mass can't be created or destroyed, the mass of the products must be equal to the mass of the reactants if mass was conserved in a chemical reactions.

When 5.00 g of Al2S3 and 2.50 g of H2O are reacted according to the following reaction: Al2S3(s) + 6 H2O(l) → 2 Al(OH)3(s) + 3 H

Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

$Y=58.15\%$

Explanation:

Hello,

For the given chemical reaction:

$Al_2S_3(s) + 6 H_2O(l) \rightarrow 2 Al(OH)_3(s) + 3 H_2S(g)$

We first must identify the limiting reactant by computing the reacting moles of Al2S3:

$n_{Al_2S_3}=5.00gAl_2S_3*\frac{1molAl_2S_3}{150.158 gAl_2S_3} =0.0333molAl_2S_3$

Next, we compute the moles of Al2S3 that are consumed by 2.50 of H2O via the 1:6 mole ratio between them:

$n_{Al_2S_3}^{consumed}=2.50gH_2O*\frac{1molH_2O}{18gH_2O}*\frac{1molAl_2S_3}{6molH_2O}=0.0231mol Al_2S_3$

Thus, we notice that there are more available Al2S3 than consumed, for that reason it is in excess and water is the limiting, therefore, we can compute the theoretical yield of Al(OH)3 via the 2:1 molar ratio between it and Al2S3 with the limiting amount:

$m_{Al(OH)_3}=0.0231molAl_2S_3*\frac{2molAl(OH)_3}{1molAl_2S_3}*\frac{78gAl(OH)_3}{1molAl(OH)_3} =3.61gAl(OH)_3$

Finally, we compute the percent yield with the obtained 2.10 g:

$Y=\frac{2.10g}{3.61g} *100\%\\\\Y=58.15\%$

Best regards.

The electrolyte of the following is:

ozzi

An electrolyte is a term used to describe a compound that can dissociate into ions as it is nothing but an ionic compound, a salt made up of a positively charged cation and negatively charged anion.

Here the correct answer is D. Since there are no hydrocarbons or any other organic compound, that do not possess partial let alone full charges, all of them can dissociate in solution to give their ions.

This allows for the solution to be able to conduct electricity.

A container of N, 03(9) has a pressure of 0.490 atm. When the absolute temperature of the N, O2(g) is tripled, the gas

spayn [35]

Answer: 1.59atm

Explanation:

We have that for the Question "Calculate the final pressure of the gas mixture, assuming that the container volume does not change."

it can be said that

The final pressure of the gas mixture, assuming that the container volume does not change =

From the question we are told

A container of N2O3(g) has a pressure of 0.265 atm. When the absolute temperature of the N2O3(g) is tripled, the gas completely decomposes, producing NO2(g) and NO(g).

zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

D. Many, many years of deposition

Explanation:

The layers of the rocks in one region of the parks are smooth and distinct, which are evidence of many, many years of deposition.

The layers on the rocks are because of different deposition of sediments. Different sediments deposited over the rocks through wind, water and ice over the ages.

Hence, the correct answer is D.
