An Ionic bond is the result of transfer of electrons between atoms
Answer:
1.18 moles of CS₂ are produced by the reaction.
Explanation:
We present the reaction:
5C + 2SO₂ → CS₂ + 4CO
5 moles of carbon react to 2 moles of sulfur dioxide in order to produce 1 mol of carbon disulfide and 4 moles of carbon monoxide.
As we do not have data from the SO₂, we assume this as the excess reagent. We convert the mass of carbon to moles:
70.8 g / 12 g/mol = 5.9 moles
Ratio is 5:1, so 5 moles of carbon react to produce 1 mol of CS₂
Then, 5.9 moles will produce (5.9 . 1) / 5 = 1.18 moles
A. The mass of one mole of the virus is calculated by multiplying the mass of a single virus by the Avogadro's number which is equal to 6.022 x 10^23. Performing this operation,
mass = (9.0 x 10^-12 mg)(6.022 x 10^23) = 5.42 x 10^12 mg
In correct number of significant figures, the answer would only have to be 5.4 x 10^12 mg.
b. The number of moles of the virus that will have the same mass as the oil tanker is calculated by dividing the mass of the oil tanker by the mass of one mole of the virus. Note that doing division, both would have to have the same units.
n = (3.0 x 10^7 kg) / (5.4 x 10^12 mg)(1 g/1000 mg)(1 kg/1000 g)
Simplifying,
n = 6
In correct number of significant figures, the answer is 6.0.
