How many grams of water are needed to form 21.8 grams of oxygen gas?

Chemistry
1 answer:
GaryK [48]2 years ago
5 0

Answer:

24.5g

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of oxygen gas = 21.8g

Unknown:

Mass of water  = ?

Solution:

This problem deals with the decomposition of water;

    Reaction equation;

                  2H₂O →  2H₂  +  O₂

2 mole of water will produce 1 mole of oxygen gas

First find the number of mole of the oxygen gas given;

          Number of moles  = \frac{mass}{molar mass}

    molar mass of O₂   = 2(16) = 32g/mol

 

  Number of moles of O₂  = \frac{21.8}{32}   = 0.68moles

 

    1 mole of oxygen gas will be produced from 2 mole of water

     0.68moles of oxygen gas will be produce from  0.68 x 2 moles of water;   = 1.36moles of water

Mass of water = number of moles x molar mass

  Molar mass of water = 2(1) + 16  = 18g/mol

Mass of water  = 1.36 x 18  = 24.5g

What quantity of heat is required to raise the temperature of 460g of aluminum from 15C to 85C?
Hoochie [10]

Answer:

Q = 28.9 kJ

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of Aluminium, m = 460 g

Initial temperature, T_i=15^{\circ} C

Final temperature, T_f=85^{\circ}

We know that the specific heat of Aluminium is 0.9 J/g°C. The heat required to raise the temperature is given by :

Q=mc\Delta T\\\\Q=mc(T_f-T_i)\\\\Q=460\ g\times 0.9\ J/g^{\circ} C\times (85-15)^{\circ} C\\\\Q=28980\ J\\\\\text{or}\\\\Q=28.9\ kJ

So, 28.9 kJ of heat is required to raise the temperature.

Mr. Ragusa asks Hassan to make silver crystals from the following reaction.
SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

Percentage yield = 61.7%

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated:

2AgNO₃ + Cu —> Cu(NO₃)₂ + 2Ag

Next, we shall determine the mass of AgNO₃ that reacted and the mass of Ag produced from the balanced equation. This is illustrated below:

Molar mass of AgNO₃ = 108 + 14 + (16×3)

= 108 + 14 + 48

= 170 g/mol

Mass of AgNO₃ from the balanced equation = 2 × 170 = 340 g

Molar mass of Ag = 108 g/mol

Mass of Ag from the balanced equation = 2 × 108 = 216 g

SUMMARY:

From the balanced equation above,

340 g of AgNO₃ reacted to produce 216 g of Ag.

Next, we shall determine the theoretical yield of Ag. This can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

340 g of AgNO₃ reacted to produce 216 g of Ag.

Therefore, 51 g of AgNO₃ will react to produce = (51 × 216)/340 = 32.4 g of Ag.

Thus, the theoretical yield of Ag is 32.4 g.

Finally, we shall determine the percentage yield of Ag. This can be obtained as follow:

Actual yield = 20 g

Theoretical yield = 32.4 g

Percentage yield =?

Percentage yield = Actual yield /Theoretical yield × 100

Percentage yield = 20 / 32.4 × 100

Percentage yield = 61.7%
