Answer:

Nonpoint source pollution is difficult to control because it comes from many different sources and locations. Most nonpoint source pollution occurs as a result of runoff. When rain or melted snow moves over and through the ground, the water absorbs and assimilates any pollutants it comes into contact with.

Analysing the Question:

We are given the balanced equation:

C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂→ 6CO₂ + 6H₂O

from this equation, we can say that: for every 1 mole of Glucose, we need 6 moles of Oxygen

Moles of Glucose used in the reaction:

Molar mass of Glucose = 180 grams / mol

Given mass of Glucose = 1 gram

Mole of Glucose = Given mass / Molar mass

Moles of Glucose = 1 / 180 moles

Mass of Oxygen required:

We know that for every mole of Glucose, we need 6 moles of Oxygen

So, for 1/180 moles of Glucose, we need 6 / 180 = 1 / 30 moles of Oxygen

Mass of 1 / 30 moles of Oxygen:

Mass = Molar mass * number of moles

Mass of Oxygen = 32 * 1/30

Mass of Oxygen = 32 / 30

Mass of Oxygen = 1.06 grams

A chemist wants to extract copper metal from copper chloride solution. The chemist places 0.50 grams of aluminum foil in a solut

Irina-Kira [14]

Answer:

Approximately 0.36 grams, because copper (II) chloride acts as a limiting reactant.

Explanation:

It is a stichiometry problem.

We should write the balance equation of the mentioned chemical reaction:

2Al + 3CuCl₂ → 3Cu + 2AlCl₃.

It is clear that 2.0 moles of Al foil reacts with 3.0 moles of CuCl₂ to produce 3.0 moles of Cu metal and 2.0 moles of AlCl₃.

Also, we need to calculate the number of moles of the reported masses of Al foil (0.50 g) and CuCl₂ (0.75 g) using the relation:

n = mass / molar mass

The no. of moles of Al foil = mass / atomic mass = (0.50 g) / (26.98 g/mol) = 0.0185 mol.

The no. of moles of CuCl₂ = mass / molar mass = (0.75 g) / (134.45 g/mol) = 5.578 x 10⁻³ mol.

From the stichiometry Al foil reacts with CuCl₂ with a ratio of 2:3.

∴ 3.85 x 10⁻³ mol of Al foil reacts completely with 5.578 x 10⁻³ mol of CuCl₂ with (2:3) ratio and CuCl₂ is the limiting reactant while Al foil is in excess.

From the stichiometry 3.0 moles of CuCl₂ will produce the same no. of moles of copper metal (3.0 moles).
So, this reaction will produce 5.578 x 10⁻³ mol of copper metal.
Finally, we can calculate the mass of copper produced using:

mass of Cu = no. of moles x Atomic mass of Cu = (5.578 x 10⁻³ mol)(63.546 g/mol) = 0.354459 g ≅ 0.36 g.

So, the answer is:

Approximately 0.36 grams, because copper (II) chloride acts as a limiting reactant.

Which notation represents atoms that have the same number of protons but a different neutron?

ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Those are called isotopes,

the answer is 3.

each element has its own unique number of protons (atomic number) but a different number of neutrons can be shown in example number 3.
