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

Identify which two compounds below are constitutional isomers
Romashka [77]

Answer:

(CH₃)₃COCH3₃ and (CH₃)₂CHOCH₂CH₃

Explanation:

Isomers are compounds which have the same molecular formula. Constitutional isomers have different connectivity; the atoms are connected in different ways.

1. (CH₃)₃COCH₃

2. (CH₃)₂CHOCH3₃

3. (CH₃)₂CHOCH₂CH₃

Molecules 1 and 3 have the same formula (C₅H₁₂O) and are isomers. Molecule 2 is not an isomer. From the structural formula, it is clear that Molecules 1 and 3 have different connectivity.

Clo3− draw the molecule by placing atoms on the grid and connecting them with bonds. Include all lone pairs of electrons. Show t
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

The formal charges of all nonhydrogen atoms are -1.

Solution:-

<u>O 7-4 = 3 O Double bond on one H 5-4 = 1</u>

O-Cl-O 6-7 = -1x4 = -4 N 5-4=1 H-N-H 1-1=0

O 3-4= -1 O O 6-7 = -1(2)=-2 H 1-0=+1

<u>6-6 = 0 1-2 = -1</u>

It will percentage its last valence electron thru a single bond to the terminal oxygen atom. This is in agreement with carbon and hydrogen atoms that each need to form 4 and 1 covalent bonds respectively. because the terminal oxygen atom best has a single covalent bond, it'll have a proper rate of -1.

According to the lewis structure of SO2, The critical atom is sulfur and it is bonded with 2 oxygen atoms thru a double bond. each oxygen atom acquires 2 lone pairs of electrons and the primary sulfur atom has 1 lone pair of electrons.
