Calculate the kinetic energy of a 150 g baseball moving at a speed of 40. m/s (89 mph).

1 answer:

6 0

Kinetic Energy= 0.5 times velocity squared times mass
So KE= 0.5times 150 times 40 squared

Cryolite, Na3AlF6(s), an ore used in the production of aluminum, can be synthesized using aluminum oxide. Balance the equation f

dmitriy555 [2]

Answer: The mass of cryolite produced is 51.48 kg

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$ .....(1)

For aluminium oxide:

Given mass of aluminium oxide = 12.5 kg = 12500 g (Conversion factor: 1 kg = 1000 g)

Molar mass of aluminium oxide = 101.96 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of aluminium oxide}=\frac{12500g}{101.96g/mol}=122.6mol$

For NaOH:

Given mass of NaOH = 55.4 kg = 55400 g

Molar mass of NaOH = 40 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of NaOH}=\frac{55400g}{40g/mol}=1389mol$

For HF:

Given mass of HF = 55.4 kg = 55400 g

Molar mass of HF = 20 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of HF}=\frac{55400g}{20g/mol}=2770mol$

For the given chemical reaction:

$Al_2O_3(s)+6NaOH(l)+12HF(g)\rightarrow 2Na_3AlF_6+9H_2O(g)$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of aluminium oxide reacts with 6 moles of sodium hydroxide and 12 moles of HF.

So, 122.6 moles of aluminium oxide will react with $(6\times 122.6)=735.6mol$ of sodium hydroxide and $(12\times 122.6)=1471.2mol$ of HF

As, given amount of NaOH and HF is more than the required amount. So, they are considered as an excess reagent.

Thus, aluminium oxide is considered as a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of product.

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of aluminium oxide produces 2 moles of cryolite

So, 122.6 moles of aluminium oxide will produce = $\frac{2}{1}\times 122.6=245.2mol$ of cryolite

Now, calculating the mass of cryolite by using equation 1:

Molar mass of cryolite = 209.94 g/mol

Moles of cryolite = 245.2 mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$245.2mol=\frac{\text{Mass of cryolite}}{209.94g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of cryolite}=(245.2mol\times 209.94g/mol)=51477.3g$

Converting this into kilograms, we use the conversion factor:

1 kg = 1000 g

So, $51477.3 g\times (\frac{1kg}{1000g})=51.48kg$

Hence, the mass of cryolite produced is 51.48 kg

Tatiana [17]

Answer:

$C_9H_8O_4+C_2H_3O_2^-\rightarrow C_2H_4O_2+C_9H_7O_4^-$

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given information, it turns out possible for us to figure out the required net ionic equation by firstly writing out the complete molecular equation between aspirin and sodium acetate:

$C_9H_8O_4+NaC_2H_3O_2\rightarrow C_2H_4O_2+NaC_9H_7O_4$

Whereas acetic acid and sodium acetylsalicylate are formed. Now, we write the complete ionic equation whereby sodium acetate and sodium acetylsalicylate are ionized because they are salts yet neither aspirin nor acetic acid are ionized as they are weak acids:

$C_9H_8O_4+Na^++C_2H_3O_2^-\rightarrow C_2H_4O_2+Na^++C_9H_7O_4^-$

Finally, for the net ionic equation we cancel out the sodium spectator ions to obtain:

$C_9H_8O_4+C_2H_3O_2^-\rightarrow C_2H_4O_2+C_9H_7O_4^-$

Regards!
