For the reaction 2H2 + O2 --> 2H2O, how many grams of oxygen are needed to react 3 moles of hydrogen?

Chemistry

mr Goodwill [35]3 years ago

Answer:

48 grams

Explanation:

The chemical equation for the reaction is the following:

2 H₂ + O₂ → 2 H₂O

That means that 2 moles of H₂ react with 1 mol of O₂ to produce 2 moles of H₂O. We convert the moles of oxygen (O₂) by using the molecular weight (MW) as follows:

MW(O₂) = 16 g/mol x 2 = 32 g/mol

mass of O₂ = 1 mol x 32 g/mol = 32 g

So, we have the following stoichiometric ratio: 32 g O₂/2 moles H₂. We have 3 moles of hydrogen (H₂), so we multiply the moles by the stoichiometric ratio to calculate how many grams are needed:

3 moles H₂ x 32 g O₂/2 moles H₂ = 48 g O₂

<em>Therefore, 48 grams of O₂ are needed to react with 3 moles of H₂.</em>

If oil spills continue, all of the following should be expected except (2 points)
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

Polluted ground water.

Explanation:

The rocks through which water flows into the ground sieves most of the contaminants whose molecules are larger than most bacteria. Such molecules include but are not limited oil molecules. Therefore as it descends to the lower levels of the soil profile, water is subjected to continuous filtration by the layers and it is the least susceptible to contamination by oil spills.

Hydrogen bromide decomposes when heated to 437C according to the equation: 2HBr(g) H2(g) Br2(g). If the reaction starts with 2.1
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

<h3>the equilibrium constant of the decomposition of hydrogen bromide is 0.084</h3>

Explanation:

Amount of HBr dissociated

2.15 \ mole \times \frac{36.7}{100} \\\\=0.789 \ mole

                                  2HBr(g)        ⇆          H2(g)           +          Br2(g)

Initial Changes          2.15                             0                                0  (mol)

                                - 0.789                      + 0.395                     + 0.395 (mol)

At equilibrium        1.361                            0.395                         0.395 (mole)

Concentration        1.361 / 1                   0.395 / 1                      0.395 / 1

at equilibrium (mole/L)

K_c=\frac{[H_2][Br_2]}{[HBr]^2} \\\\=\frac{(0.395)(0.395)}{(1.361)^2} \\\\=\frac{0.156025}{1.852321} \\\\=0.084

<h3>Therefore, the equilibrium constant of the decomposition of hydrogen bromide is 0.084</h3>

Ethylene glycol is used as an antifreeze in car. if 400 g of ethylene glycol is added to 4.00 kg of water, what is the molaity?
Illusion [34]
Data:

solute: ethylene glicol => not ionization

molar mass of ethylene glicol (from internet)  = 62.07 g/mol

solute  = 400 g

solvent = water = 4.00 kg

m =?

ΔTf = ?

Kf = 1.86 °C/mol

Formulas:

m: number of moles of solute / kg of solvent

ΔTf = Kf*m

number of moles of solute = mass in grams / molar mass

Solution

number of moles of solute = 400 g / 62.07 g/mol = 6.44 moles

m = 6.44 mol / 4 kg = 1.61 m <-------- molality (answer)

ΔTf = 1.86 °C / m * 1.61 m = 2.99 °C <---- lowering if freezing point (answer)
