A metal rail rusting in damp weather.
A. NaCl(s) and O2(g)
B. 2NaClO3(s) —> 2NaCl(s) + 3O2(g)
C. moles NaClO3 = 100 g / 106.44 g/mol = 0.939 mol NaClO3
D. 0.939 mol NaCl (because the NaClO3 and NaCl are in a 1 to 1 ratio)
E. grams NaCl = 0.939 mol • 58.44 g/mol = 54.9 g NaCl
F. moles of O2 = 0.939 mol NaClO3 • (3 mol O2 / 2 mol NaClO3) = 1.41 mol O2
G. grams of O2 = 1.41 mol • 32 g/mol = 45.1 g O2
H. Percent yield = 10/45.1 • 100% = 22.2% yield
Answer:
26.981539 u
Explanation:
One mole of Al atoms has a mass in grams that is numerically equivalent to the atomic mass of aluminum. The periodic table shows that the atomic mass (rounded to two decimal points) of Al is 26.98, so 1 mol of Al atoms has a mass of 26.98 g.
There are more oxygen atoms in the reactants while there are less oxygen atoms in the product.
Both sides of the equation is supposed to be balanced for a balanced equation. If any one of them isn't balanced, the equation remains unbalanced.
The main reason why the reaction above can not be balanced is:
This chemical reaction SO2 + H2O -> H2SO2 is not correctly written.
It must be: SO2 + H2O -> H2SO3
