Answer:
no. of moles = measured mass of substance/ molar mass of the constituted elements
Explanation:
No. of moles of 2.0g NaCl= 2/(23+35.5) = 0.034mol
C3H8+3O2--->3CO2+8H
Therefore for every 1:3 there are 3 Carbon dioxides that form. That means find the limiting reactant from the two reactants.
5.5g(1mole C3H8/44.03g of C3H8)=0.1249 moled of C3H8 and if for every one C3H8 we can form three CO2. We can assume 0.3747 miles of CO2 will be produced.
15g of O2(1 mole O2/32g of O2)=0.4685moles O2 and if for every three O2 we can produce three CO2 we may assume a 1:1 ratio.
This means C3H8 will be your limiting reactant. Therefore 0.3747 moles of CO2 will be produced.
0.3747 moles of CO2(48.01 g of CO2/1 mole of CO2)= 17.99 grams of CO2
A chemical formula shows the kinds and numbers of <u>atoms</u> in the smallest representative unit of a substance.
<u>Explanation:</u>
In chemistry, a formula unit is the empirical formula of "ionic or covalent network solid compound" that is used as an independent entity for "stoichiometric calculations". This formula is a representation of a molecule that uses chemical symbols.
The unit is the lowest whole number ratio of ions represented in an ionic compound. It gives the numbers of atoms representing the "smallest representative" unit of a substance. The number of atoms also tells us about the chemical and physical properties of the compound formed.
