Its arbitrary. It was developed on the greek phoenetic system and never reallybwas explained.
We are given with the mass of pure iron that reacts with oxygen to form an oxide which has a given mass as well. the mass of oxygen reacted is 8.15-6.25 g or 1.9 grams. THen we convert the mass of the reactants to moles. Iron is equal to 0.1119 moles and oxygen is equal to 0.1188. We divide each number to the less amount. Hence iron is 1 and oxygen is approx 1. The empirical formula hence is FeO or ferrous oxide or Iron (II) oxide.
33.6 moles are needed to completely react with 84.0 moles of O2
Answer: it is 5.5 mg
Explanation:
you have to multiply the mass value by 1000
Answer:
-125.4
Explanation:
Target equation is 4C(s) + 5H2(g) = C4H10
These are the data equations for enthalpy of combustion
- C(s) + O2(g) =O2(g) -393.5 kJ/mol * 4
- H2(g) + ½O2(g) =H20(l) = 285.8 kJ/mol * 5
- 2CO2(g) + 3H2O(l) = 13/2O2 (g) + C4H10 - 2877.1 reverse
To get target equation multiply data equation 1 by 4; multiply equation 2 by 5; and reverse equation 3, so...
Calculate 4(-393.5) + 5(-285.8) + 2877.6 and you should get the answer.
