Answer:

4P + 5O₂ —> P₄O₁₀

Explanation:

From the question given above, we obtained:

P + O₂ —> P₄O₁₀

The above equation can be balance as illustrated below:

P + O₂ —> P₄O₁₀

There are 4 atoms of P on the right side and 1 atom on the left side. It can be balance by 4 in front of P as shown below:

4P + O₂ —> P₄O₁₀

There are 10 atoms of O on the right side and 2 atoms on the left side. It can be balance by putting 5 in front of O₂ as shown below:

4P + 5O₂ —> P₄O₁₀

Now the equation is balanced.

Answer:

1. 90%

2. 217.4 g O₂

3. 95.0%

4. Trial 2 ratios

Explanation:

Original: SiCl₄ + O₂ → SiO₂ + Cl₂

Balanced: SiCl₄ + O₂ → SiO₂ + 2Cl₂

Trial SiCl₄ O₂ SiO₂

1 120 g 240 g 38.2 g

2 75 g 50 g 25.2 g

Percentage yield for trial 1

We need to get actual yield (38.2 g) and theoretical yield, in grams.

Mass to moles:

molar mass SiCl₄: 28.09 + 4(35.45) = 169.9 g/mol

120 g SiCl₄ x 1 mol/169.9 g = .706 mol SiCl₄

Moles to moles:

For each mole SiCl₄, we have one mol SiO₂ based on the balanced rxn.

.706 mol SiCl₄ = .706 mol SiO₂

Moles to mass:

molar mass SiO₂: 28.09 + 2(16.00) = 60.09 g/mol

.706 mol SiO₂ x 60.09g/mol = 42.44 g SiO₂

Theoretical yield:

actual/theoretical x 100

38.2 / 42.44 = .900 = 90.0% yield

Leftover reactant for trial 1

We know oxygen is the excess reactant.

Mass to moles:

molar mass O₂ = 32.00 g/mol

240 g O₂ x 1 mol/32.00 g = 7.5 mol O₂

We used .706 mol SiO₂, so we also used .706 mol O₂.

7.5 - .706 = 6.8 moles left over

Moles to mass:

6.8 mol O₂ x 32.00g/mol = 217.4 g O₂

Percentage yield for trial 2

Mass to moles:

molar mass SiCl₄: 169.9 g/mol

75 g SiCl₄ x 1 mol/169.9 g = .441 mol SiCl₄

Moles to moles:

For each mole SiCl₄, we have one mol SiO₂ based on the balanced rxn.

.441 mol SiCl₄ = .441 mol SiO₂

Moles to mass:

molar mass SiO₂: 60.09 g/mol

.441 mol SiO₂ x 60.09g/mol = 26.5 g SiO₂

Theoretical yield:

actual/theoretical x 100

25.2 / 26.5 = .950 = 95.0% yield

Because the percentage yield of trial 2 is higher than that of trial 1, we know that the ratio of reactants in trial 2 is more efficient! We got a result closer to our theoretical yield.

Write the chemical equation that represents the process of lattice energy for the case of nacl.

faust18 [17]

Answer: $Na^+(g)+Cl^-(g)\rightarrow NaCl(s),\Delta H_{Lattice}=-786kJ/mol$

Explanation:

Lattice energy : It is defined energy released when ions combine together in a gaseous phase to form a compound. it is energy possessed by the crystal lattice of a compound. Denoted by symbol $\Delta H_{Lattice}$ .

$\Delta H_{Lattice}=positive$ , energy is absorbed while forming of the lattice

$\Delta H_{Lattice}=negative$ , energy is release while forming of the lattice

$Na^+(g)+Cl^-(g)\rightarrow NaCl(s),\Delta H_{Lattice}=-786kJ/mol$

One mole of sodium ion when combines with one mole chloride ion release 786 kJ of energy.

A piece of aluminum weighing 10.0 grams is placed into a graduated cylinder that has an initial volume (before immersion) of 35.

padilas [110]

Answer:

The density of the metal sample is 2.70 $\frac{grams}{mL}$

Explanation:

Density is a magnitude that allows you to measure the amount of mass in a given volume of a substance. Then, the expression for the calculation of density is the ratio between the mass of a body and the volume it occupies:

$d=\frac{m}{V}$

Density, according to the International System of Units, is usually expressed in kilograms per cubic meter (kg / m3) or gram per cubic centimeter (g / cm3). Although it can also be expressed in any other unit of mass by volume.

So, for the calculation of density you know that:

mass of the sample= 10 grams
volume of the sample = volume on the cylinder after immersion - volume on the cylinder before immersion= 38.7 mL - 35.0 ml = 3.7 mL

Then:

$d=\frac{10 grams}{3.7 mL}$

d=2.70 $\frac{grams}{mL}$

The density of the metal sample is 2.70 $\frac{grams}{mL}$

What do nuclear reactions change in the atom? covalent bonds ionic bonds electrons neutrons protons

Lemur [1.5K]

A nuclear reaction changes the number of protons and or neutrons in an atom.

<h3>What do nuclear reactions change in the atom?</h3>

A nuclear reaction is a type of reaction that results in the change of the nucleus of an atom. We know that a nucleus of an atom is made up of protons and neutrons.

So we can conclude that a nuclear reaction changes the number of protons and or neutrons in an atom.
