How can you balance a chemical equation?

Chemistry

sergey [27]3 years ago

Answer:

When you balance a chemical equation, you change coefficients. You never change subscripts. A coefficient is a whole number multiplier. To balance a chemical equation, you add these whole number multipliers (coefficients) to make sure that there are the same number of atoms on each side of the arrow.

How many moles of O2- ions are there in 0.450 moles of aluminum oxide, Al2O3?
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

                     1.35 moles of O²⁻

                     21.6 grams of O²⁻

Explanation:

We know that the charge on Aluminium ion is +3 (i.e. Al³⁺) while, the charge on Oxide ion is -2 (i.e. O²⁻). Therefore, the overall neutral Al₂O₃ compound has 2 Al³⁺ ions and 3 O²⁻ ions. Since, we can say that,

                 1 mole of Al₂O3 contains  =  3 moles of O²⁻ ions

So,

                     0.450 moles of Al₂O₃ will have  =  X g of O²⁻

Solving for X,

                      X =  0.450 mol × 3 mol ÷ 1 mol

                     X =  1.35 moles of O²⁻

As the mass of an atom is mainly due to the presence of protons and neutrons hence, the addition of two electrons (-ve 2 shows two gained electron) to Oxygen will make a negligible change to the atomic masss of Oxygen because electron is said to be almost 1800 times lighter than proton. Hence, the ionic mass of O²⁻ will be 16 g/mol and the mass of given moles is calculated as,

                     Mass  =  Moles × Ionic Mass

                     Mass  =  1.35 mol × 16 g/mol

                    Mass  =  21.6 g
