So I saw this question: If 28.0 grams of Pb(NO3)2 react with 18.0 grams of NaI, what mass of PbI2 can be produced? Pb(NO3)2 + Na

I → PbI2 + NaNO3
I saw an answer that question but I need one part explained. The answer balanced the equation, but I do not know how they did that or why. They added a 2 to both sides and I do not know where it came from or why it made it balanced.

mass of PbI₂ = 27.6606 g

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Pb(NO₃)₂ + NaI → PbI₂ + NaNO₃

28.0 grams of Pb(NO₃)₂ react with 18.0 grams of NaI

Required

mass of PbI₂

Solution

Balanced equation

Pb(NO₃)₂ + 2NaI → PbI₂ + 2NaNO₃

The principle of a balanced reaction is the number of atoms in the reactants = the number of atoms in the product

mol Pb(NO₃)₂ :

= 28 : 331,2 g/mol

= 0.0845

mol NaI :

= 18 : 149,89 g/mol

= 0.12

Limiting reactant : mol : coefficient

Pb(NO₃)₂ : 0.0845 : 1 = 0.0845

NaI : 0.12 : 2 = 0.06

NaI limiting reactant (smaller ratio)

mol PbI₂ based on NaI

= 1/2 x 0.12 = 0.06

Mass PbI₂ :

= 0.06 x 461,01 g/mol

= 27.6606 g

Copper has a density of 8.96 g/cm3. If 75.0 g of copper is added to 50.0 mL of water in a graduated cylinder, to what volume rea
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

The answer to your question is    Final volume = 58.37 ml

Explanation:

Data

density = 8.96 g/cm³

mass = 75 g

volume of water = 50 ml

Process

1.- Calculate the volume of copper

  Density = mass / volume

Solve for volume

  Volume = mass / density

Substitution

  Volume = 75/8.96

Simplification

  Volume = 8.37cm³    or 8.37 cm³

2.- Calculate the new volume of water in the graduated cylinder

  Final volume = 50 + 8.37

  Final volume = 58.37 ml

calculate the volume occupied by 10g of propane gas, under normal conditions of temperature and pressure
andriy [413]

Answer:

5.5 L

Explanation:

First we <u>convert 10 g of propane gas</u> (C₃H₈) to moles, using its <em>molar mass</em>:

  • 10 g ÷ 44 g/mol = 0.23 mol

Then we <u>use the PV=nRT formula</u>, where:

  • P = 1 atm & T = 293 K (This are normal conditions of T and P)
  • n = 0.23 mol
  • R = 0.082 atm·L·mol⁻¹·K⁻¹
  • V = ?

1 atm * V = 0.23 mol * 0.082 atm·L·mol⁻¹·K⁻¹ * 293 K

  • V = 5.5 L

Based on the graph of US population and steel consumption, what could have led to the increase in steel consumption seen
polet [3.4K]

Answer:

A. Whenever the population has increased, steel consumption has increased as well.

Explanation:

Based on the graph of US population and steel consumption, what could have led to the increase in steel consumption seen  on the graph is that whenever the population has increased, steel consumption has increased as well.

A critical look at the graph, you will discover that the population and the steel consumption are moving upwards (i.e they are increasing). It's seen that as the population increases, steel consumption increases. This is true because as the population increases, people are building houses, more transportation systems that require steel are being manufactured, more household utensils that are steel products are being fabricated etc; therefore the consumption of steel increases.
