Calculate how many grams of Aluminum are needed to produce 21.6 grams of Aluminum oxide (Al2O3).

Gennadij [26K]3 years ago

Answer:

0.347

Explanation:

Al is the limiting reagent.

Explanation:

The stoichiometry of the reaction is such that 4 moles of Al are required for every 3 moles of diatomic oxygen. This means that if the ratio of Al to diatomic oxygen is greater than 4/3, then the oxygen is the limiting reagent. If the ratio of Al to diatomic oxygen is less than 4/3, then Al is the limiting reagent.

The problem state that the ratio of Al to diatomic oxygen is

0.32

0.26

The ration of Al to diatomic oxygen is less than 4/3, so Al is the limiting reagent.

We can also see this if we ask the question "How much Aluminum" is required to completely react 0.26 moles of diatomic oxygen??

So it would take 0.347 moles of Al to completely react with all of the oxygen, however there is only 0.32 moles of Aluminum present, so there is not enough Al to react with all of the oxygen, and so we say that the Al is the limiting reagent.

How many unpaired electrons are present in the ground state of an atom from each of the following groups?
Paha777 [63]

Explanation:

General electronic configuration for the given groups are as follows.

For 4A(14) : ns^{2}np^{4}

This means that there are 4 unpaired electrons in group 4A(14).

For 7A(17) : ns^{2}np^{5}

So, there are 7 unpaired electrons present in group 7A(17).

For 1A(1) : ns^{1}

Hence, there is only one unpaired electron present in group 1A(1).

For 6A(16) : ns^{2}np^{4}

So, there are 6 unpaired electrons present in group 6A(16).

What does the number above the symbol represent?
forsale [732]

Answer:

D. The ionic number.

Explanation:

Whenever an element losses or gains an electron; it becomes charged, thus turns to an ion. The ion can either be positively charged when it losses an electron or negarively charged when it gains an electron. The number shows the required number of electrons gained (negative) or lost (positive).

A sample of pure oxalic acid (H2C2O4.2H2O) weighs 0.2000 g and requires 30.12 ml of KOH solution for
ValentinkaMS [17]

 The molarity  of KOH  is  0.1055 M

 <u><em> calculation</em></u>

Step  1: write  the  equation  for reaction between H₂C₂O₄.2H₂O  and KOH

H₂C₂O₄.2H₂O  + 2 KOH   →    K₂C₂O₄ +4 H₂O

step 2: find the moles  of H₂C₂O₄.2H₂O

moles = mass÷ molar  mass

from  periodic  table the  molar mass H₂C₂O₄.2H₂O= (1 x2) +(12 x2) +(16 x4)  + 2(18)=126 g/mol

 = 0.2000 g ÷ 126 g/mol =0.00159  moles


step 3: use the  mole  ratio  to  calculate the moles of KOH

H₂C₂O₄.2H₂O : KOH  is 1:2

therefore the  moles of KOH  =0.00159 x 2 = 0.00318  moles

step 4: find molarity of KOH

molarity = moles/volume in liters

volume in liters = 30.12/1000=0.03012 L

molarity  is therefore = 0.00318/0.03012 =0.1055 M

What is the ratio (in the form of a decimal) of the root-mean-square speed of 238UF6 to that of 235UF6 at constant temperature?
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

ratio=0.996m/s

Explanation:

RMS=\sqrt{\frac{3RT}{M} }; M= molecular weight of compound;

RMS speed is inversly proportional to the molecular weight hence compound having less molecular weight will have more rms speed value.

V1 for 238 UF_{6}; M1=238+114=352g/mole

V1 for 235 UF_{6}; M1=238+114=352g/mole

V1=\sqrt{\frac{3RT}{352} };

V2=\sqrt{\frac{3RT}{349} };

\frac{V1}{V2}=ratio of 238UF_{6} F6 to 235UF_{6}=\sqrt{\frac{349}{352} };

\frac{V1}{V2} =0.9957m/s;

\frac{V1}{V2} =0.996m/s;
