If 38.5 grams of potassium react with excess oxygen gas, how many grams of potassium oxide can be produced? 4K + O2 yields 2K2O
Lera25 [3.4K]

Answer:

46.40 g.

Explanation:

  • It is a stichiometric problem.
  • The balanced equation of the reaction: 4K + O₂ → 2K₂O.
  • It is clear that 4.0 moles of K reacts with 1.0 mole of oxygen produces 2.0 moles of K₂O.
  • We should convert the mass of K (38.5 g) into moles using the relation:

<em>n = mass / molar mass,</em>

n = (38.5 g) / (39.098 g/mol) = 0.985 mole.

<em>Using cross multiplication:</em>

4.0 moles of K produces → 2.0 moles of K₂O, from the stichiometry.

0.985 mole of K produces → ??? moles of K₂O.

∴ The number of moles of K₂O produced = (0.985 mole) (2.0 mole) / (4.0 mole) = 0.4925 mole ≅ 0.5 mole.

  • Now, we can get the mass of K₂O:

∴ mass = n x molar mass = (0.5 mole) (94.2 g/mol) = 46.40 g.

Draw the major organic substitution product(s) for (2R,3S)-2-bromo-3-methylpentane reacting with the given nucleophile. Indicate
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:

The final product of the reaction is (<em>2S,3S</em>)-2-ethoxy-3-methylpentane.

Explanation:

The given reaction undergoes S_{N}2  mechanism in which the nucleophile attacks the backside and it is substituted by the elimination of bromine.

Due to the backside attack of nucleophile , the inverse in stereo-chemistry is observed.

After the substitution of ethoxy group, the configuration is assigned according to the priority it shows clock wise direction(R) - configuration.

When hydrogen faces the front side , it results shows inverse configuration i.e, S- configuration.

The chemical reaction is as follows.

Select the correct scientist for each of the following advances in creating the modern periodic table.
sergey [27]

Answer:

Lavoisier; Newlands; Moseley

Explanation:

In 1789, Antoine Lavoisier grouped the elements into gases, nonmetals, metals, and earths.

In 1865, John Newlands developed the Law of Octaves. He stated that "any given element will exhibit analogous behaviour to the eighth element following it in the table."  

In 1914, Henry Moseley found a correlation between the X-ray wavelength of an element and its atomic number. He was then able to restructure the periodic table according to atomic numbers.
