Zn (s) -> Zn+2 (aq) + 2e-
Zn (s) with a neutral charge is oxidized and looses two electrons in the process to form ZnCl2 (aq) where Zn has a charge of 2+.
To figure out questions related to reacting moles/masses, the first step is always to write a complete balanced equation.
2Fe (s) + 3Cl2 (g) → 2FeCl3 (s)
Since Cl2 is the excess reactant, and Fe is the limiting reactant, we can simply find the number of moles of the product by comparing the mole ratio of the limiting reactant to the mole ratio of the product from the equation.
From the equation, mole ratio of Fe:FeCl3 = 2:2 = 1:1, the number of moles of product is exactly the same as the number of moles of the limiting reactant, which makes it 8 moles.
Note that if the mole ratio is not 1:1, you have to do some calculations to make sure the no. of moles is balanced at the end. Which means, if the mole ratio happened to be 1:2, the no. of moles of the product would be 8x2=16 instead.
So, your answer is 8 moles.
To determine the mass, you need to know the molecular weight of the c8h10n4o2 . The molecular weight of <span>c8h10n4o2 would be: 8*12 + 10*1 + 4*14 + 2*16= 194g/mol.
To convert the number of molecules into moles, you need to divide it with 6.02 * 10^23. The calculation of the mass of </span>c8h10n4o2 would be:
(7.20×10^20 molecules) /(6.02 * 10^23 molecule/mol) * 194g/mol= 232 * 10^-3 grams= 0.232 grams
Explanation:
To convert moles to particles or grams to particles, let us have a firm understanding of what a mole is.
A mole is the unit of measuring quantity of particles.
It is the amount of substance that contains the Avogadro's number of particles.
The particle can be atoms, molecules, formula units, electrons, protons, neutrons, etc.
So, to convert from moles to particles;
1 mole of a substance contains 6.02 x 10²³ particles
To convert from grams to particles;
First convert to moles;
number of moles =
So, 1 mole of a substance contains 6.02 x 10²³ particles
In pure water, all of the molecules in the liquid are water molecules so the mole fraction is 1 (100 % H2O, 55 mol/L). In sea water, the concentration of water molecules in the solution is less than that of pure water so the vapor pressure of sea water is also lower.
