Elements bond when they share or transfer their outer shell electrons which are called valence electrons

How many grams of aluminum are required to react with 35 mL of 2.0 M hydrochloric acid, HCl?__ HCl + __ Al --> __ AlCl3 + __

kiruha [24]

Answer:

0.6258 g

Explanation:

To determine the number grams of aluminum in the above reaction;

determine the number of moles of HCl
determine the mole ratio,
use the mole ratio to calculate the number of moles of aluminum.
use RFM of Aluminum to determine the grams required.

<u>Moles </u><u>of </u><u>HCl</u>

35 mL of 2.0 M HCl

2 moles of HCl is contained in 1000 mL

x moles of HCl is contained in 35 mL

$x \: mol \: = \: \frac{2 \: \times \: 35}{1000} \\ = 0.07 \: moles \:$

We have 0.07 moles of HCl.

<u>Mole </u><u>ratio</u>

Balanced equation

6HCl(aq) + 2Al(s) --> 2AlCl3(aq) + 3H2(g)

Hence mole ratio = 6 : 2 (HCl : Al

but moles of HCl is 0.07, therefore the moles of Al;

$= \frac{2}{6} \times 0.07 \\ \: = 0.0233333 \: moles$

Therefore we have 0.0233333 moles of aluminum.

<u>Grams of </u><u>Aluminum</u>

We use the formula;

$grams \: = moles \: \times \: rfm$

The RFM (Relative formula mass) of aluminum is 26.982g/mol.

Substitute values into the formula;

$= 0.0233333 \: moles \: \times \: 26.982 \: \frac{g}{mol} \\ = 0.625799 \: grams$

The number of grams of aluminum required to react with HCl is 0.6258 g.

A sample of propane (C3H8) has a mass of 0. 47 g. The sample is burned in a bomb calorimeter that has a mass of 1. 350 kg and a

Nady [450]

The amount of heat released by the sample has been 22.54 kJ. Thus, option C is correct.

The specific heat has been defined as the amount of heat required to raise the temperature of 1 gram of substance by 1 degree Celsius.

The specific heat has been expressed as:

$q=mc\Delta T$

<h3 /><h3>Computation for the heat absorbed</h3>

The iron and calorimeter are in side the closed system. Thus, the energy released by the sample, has been equivalent to the energy absorbed by the calorimeter.

$q_{released}=q_{absorbed}\\
q_{released}=m_{calorimeter}\;c_{calorimeter}\;\Delta T$

The given mass of calorimeter has been, $m_{calorimeter}=1350\;\rm g$

The specific heat of the calorimeter has been, $c_{calorimeter}=5.82\;\rm J/g^\circ C$

The change in temperature of the calorimeter has been, $\Delta T=2.87^\circ \rm C$

Substituting the values for heat released:

$q_{released}= 1350\;\text g\;\times\;5.82\;\text J/\text g^\circ \text C\;\times\;2.87^\circ \text C\\
q_{released}=22,549.5\;\text J\\
q_{released}}=22.54\;\rm kJ$

The amount of heat released by the sample has been 22.54 kJ. Thus, option C is correct.
