Answer:

71.5g

Explanation:

The reaction equation is given as:

               C  +  O₂  →  CO₂

Mass of C = 42g

Mass of O₂  = 52g

Unknown:

Mass of CO₂ produced  = ?

Solution

Now to solve this problem, we have to find limiting reactant which is the one given in short supply in this reaction.

 The extent of the reaction is controlled by this reactant.

Find the number of moles of the given species;

 Number of moles  = \frac{mass}{molar mass}

      Number of moles of C  = \frac{42}{12}   = 3.5mol

     Number of moles of O₂   = \frac{52}{32}   = 1.63mol

Now;

   From the balanced reaction equation;

           1 mole of C reacted with 1 mole of O₂

We see that C is in excess and O₂ is the limiting reactant.

            1 mole of O₂ will produce 1 mole of CO₂

 So;      1.63mole of O₂ will produce 1.63 mole of CO₂

Mass of CO₂ = number of moles x molar mass

       Molar mass of CO₂ = 44g/mol

Mass of CO₂ = 1.63 x 44 = 71.5g

Wetlands provide habitats for many living things because of their sheltered waters and what other feature?
SIZIF [17.4K]

Answer:

large supply of nutrients.

Explanation:

In a wetland, the soil is covered by water or is almost covered by water. This water may be coming upwards from an underground aquifer. Wetlands are covered by water for most of the year.

They are sheltered waters and do provide habitats for many living things.

Nutrients such as; Carbon sulfur, phosphorus, carbon, and nitrogen are cycled within the soil of wetlands hence wetlands have a large supply of nutrients.

If you combine 27.1 g of a solute that has a molar mass of 27.1 g/mol with 100.0 g of a solvent, what is the molality of the res
baherus [9]

<u>Answer:</u> The molality of the solution is 0.1 m.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the molality of solution, we use the equation:

Molality=\frac{m_{solute}\times 1000}{M_{solute}\times W_{solvent}\text{ in grams}}

Where,

m_{solute} = Given mass of solute = 27.1 g

M_{solute} = Molar mass of solute = 27.1 g/mol

W_{solvent} = Mass of solvent = 100 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Molality of solution}=\frac{27.1\times 1000}{27.1\times 100}\\\\\text{Molality of solution}=0.1m

Hence, the molality of the solution is 0.1 m.
