1. Zinc reacts with steam according to the equation:
kvasek [131]

Answer:

1) mass ZnO = 55.155 g

2) V SO2(g) = 18.289 L

Explanation:

1) Zn + H2O  → ZnO + H2

∴ mass Zn = 41.6 g

∴ mm Zn = 65.38 g/mol

⇒ mol Zn = (41.6 g)(mol/61.38 g) = 0.678 mol Zn

⇒ mol ZnO = (0.678 mol Zn)(mol ZnO/mol Zn) = 0.678 mol ZnO

∴ mm ZnO = 81.38 g/mol

⇒ mass ZnO = (0.678 mol ZnO)(81.38 g/mol) = 55.155 g ZnO

2) S(s)  + O2(g)  →  SO2(g)

∴ mass S(s) = 24 g

∴ T = 25°C ≅ 298 K

∴ P = 1 atm

∴ mm S(s) = 32.065 g/mol

⇒ mol S(s) = (24 g)(mol/32.065 g) = 0.7485 mol S(s)

⇒ mol SO2(g) = (0.7485 mol S(s))(mol SO2(g)/mol S(s)) = 0.7485 mol SO2(g)

ideal gas:

  • PV = RTn

⇒ V SO2(g) = ((0.082 atm.L/K.mol)(298 K)(0.7485 mol))/(1 atm)

⇒ V SO2(g) = 18.289 L SO2(g)

Copper crystallizes in a face-centered cubic unit cell. the density of copper is 8.94 g/cm3. calculate the length of the edge of
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]
<span>361.4 pm is the length of the edge of the unit cell. First, let's calculate the average volume each atom is taking. Start with calculating how many moles of copper we have in a cubic centimeter by looking up the atomic weight. Atomic weight copper = 63.546 Now divide the mass by the atomic weight, getting 8.94 g / 63.546 g/mol = 0.140685488 mol And multiply by Avogadro's number to get the number of atoms: 0.140685488 * 6.022140857x10^23 = 8.472278233x10^22 Now examine the face-centered cubic unit cell to see how many atoms worth of space it consumes. There is 1 atom at each of the 8 corners and each of those atoms is shared between 8 unit cells for for a space consumption of 8/8 = 1 atom. And there are 6 faces, each with an atom in the center, each of which is shared between 2 unit cells for a space consumption of 6/2 = 3 atoms. So each unit cell consumes as much space as 4 atoms. Let's divide the number of atoms in that cubic centimeter by 4 to determine the number of unit cells in that volume. 8.472278233x10^22 / 4 = 2.118069558x10^22 Now calculate the volume each unit cell occupies. 1 cm^3 / 2.118069558x10^22 = 4.721280262x10^-23 cm^3 Let's get the cube root to get the length of an edge. (4.721280262x10^-23 cm^3)^(1/3) = 3.61426x10^-08 cm Now let's convert from cm to pm. 3.61426x10^-08 cm / 100 cm/m * 1x10^12 pm/m = 361.4 pm Doing an independent search for the Crystallographic Features of Copper, I see that the Lattice Parameter for copper at at 293 K is 3.6147 x 10^-10 m which is in very close agreement with the calculated amount above. And since metals expand and contract with heat and cold, I assume the slight difference in values is due to the density figure given being determined at a temperature lower than 293 K.</span>
