Answer: 0.236 mol ≈ 0.24mol

Explanation:

to find the amount of moles of salt in 13.8g of sodium chloride, NaCl, we need to find the mass of sodium in g/mol first.

To find the amount of sodium in g/mol, we sum up the individual masses of

sodium and chloride.

Mass of one mole of sodium = 23g

Mass of one mole of chlorine = 35.4g

Mass of sodium chloride = ( Mass of Na + Mass of Cl)

mass of NaCl = (23 + 35.4) = 58.4g/mol

∴ 1 mole of NaCl = 58.4g

x moles of NaCl = 13.8g

By cross multiplication, we have

13.8g × 1 mol ÷ 58.4g

=0.236mol ≈ 0.24mol

Answer: 0.24 moles

Explanation:

Molecular Mass of NaCl (23 + 35.5) = 58.5g

58.5g of Sodium Chloride -------> 1 mole of NaCl

∴ 13.8g of Sodium Chloride ------> 1 ÷58.5 x 13.8 = 0.2358974 ≈ 0.24moles

Occupational Safety and Health Administration has set the limit on the maximum percentage of carbon dioxide (CO2) in air a worke

Lyrx [107]

Answer:

The minimum rate of fresh air in the room is 176 moles/min

Explanation:

High exposure of CO₂ has health effects as headaches, increased heart rate, elevated blood pressure, coma, asphyxia, convulsions, etc.

0,500 mole% of CO₂ in air means 0,500 moles of CO₂ per 100 moles of air

As the rate of sublimation of CO₂ is 0,880, the minimum rate of fresh air in the room must be:

$\frac{0,500 moles CO_{2}}{100 moles Air} = \frac{0,880 moles CO_{2}/min}{X}$

X = <em>176 moles of Air/min</em>

Heat in a substance is an example of ________ energy. A. phase B. kinetic C. potential D. evaporative

lisov135 [29]

The correct answer that would best complete the given statement above is option B. Heat in a substance is an example of a kinetic energy. Kinetic energy is a kind of energy that is in motion. We can feel the kinetic energy of heat through their temperatures because heat is being transferred.

Consider the following balanced equation:

algol [13]

Moles of PF₃ : 4

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

A reaction coefficient is a number in the chemical formula of a substance involved in the reaction equation. The reaction coefficient is useful for equalizing reagents and products.

Reaction

$\tt P_4(s)+6F_2(g)\rightarrow 4PF_3(g)$

1.25 moles of P₄(s) is reacted with 6 moles of F₂(g)

Limiting reactant : the smallest ratio (mol divide by coefficient)

P₄ : F₂ =

$\tt \dfrac{1.25}{1}\div \dfrac{6}{6}=1.25\div 1\rightarrow F_2~limiting~reactant(smallest~ratio)$

mol PF₃ based on mol of limiting reactant(F₂), so mol PF₃ :

$\tt \dfrac{4}{6}\times 6~moles=4~moles$
