swat32

Answer: 16.32 g of $O_2$ as excess reagent are left.

Explanation:

To calculate the moles :

$\text{Moles of solute}=\frac{\text{given mass}}{\text{Molar Mass}}$

$\text{Moles of} SO_2=\frac{21.71g}{64g/mol}=0.34mol$

$\text{Moles of} O_2=\frac{21.71g}{32g/mol}=0.68mol$

$2SO_2(g)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2SO_3(g)$

According to stoichiometry :

2 moles of $SO_2$ require = 1 mole of $O_2$

Thus 0.34 moles of $SO_2$ will require= $\frac{1}{2}\times 0.34=0.17moles$ of $O_2$

Thus $SO_2$ is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of product and $O_2$ is the excess reagent.

Moles of $O_2$ left = (0.68-0.17) mol = 0.51 mol

Mass of $O_2=moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=0.51moles\times 32g/mol=16.32g$

Thus 16.32 g of $O_2$ as excess reagent are left.

ale4655 [162]

Answer:

The answer is "6.52 kg and 13.1 kg"

Explanation:

For point a:

$Actual\ yield = 6.52 \ kg\\\\Percent \ yield= 66\%\\\\Percent \ yield = \frac{Actual \ yield}{Theoretical\ yield} \times 100 \%\\\\Theoretical\ yield \ of \ MnO_2 = \frac{Actual \ yield}{Percent \ yield} \times 100\%\\\\=\frac{6.52 \ kg}{66 \%} \times 100\% =9.88 \ kg\\\\$

Equation:

$3MnCO_3 +O_2 \longrightarrow 2MnO_2 + 2CO_2\\\\$

Calculating the amount of $MnCO_3$

$= 9.88 \ kg \times \frac{1000 \ g}{1 \ kg} \times \frac{1 \ mol \ MnO_2}{86.94 \ g} \times \frac{2 \ Mol \ MnCO_3}{2 \ mol \ MnO_2} \times \frac{114.95\ g}{1 \ mol \ MnCO_3 }\times \frac{1\ kg}{1000\ g}\\\\= 13.1 \ kg$

For point b:

$Actual\ yield = 4.0 \ kg\\\\Percent\ yield=97.0\%\\\\Percent \ yield = \frac{Actual \ yield}{Theoretical \ yield} \times 100 \% \\\\Theoretical \ yield\ of\ Mn = \frac{Actual \ yield}{Percent \ yield} \times 100\%\\\\$

$=\frac{4.0 \ kg}{97.0\%} \times 100\% =4.12 \ kg$

Equation:

$3MnO_2 +4AL \longrightarrow 3Mn + 2AL_2O_3\\\\$

Calculating the amount of $MnO_2:$

$= 4.12 \ kg \times \frac{1000 \ g}{1 \ kg} \times \frac{1 \ mol \ Mn}{54.94 \ g} \times \frac{3 \ Mol \ MnO_2}{3 \ mol \ Mn} \times \frac{86.94 \ g}{1 \ mol \ MnO_2 }\\\\= 6516 \ g \\\\=6.52 \ kg\\\\$

A set of headphones produces sounds that cancel out sound waves from the

Basile [38]

Answer:

C. Destructive interference

Explanation:

<em>Destructive interference</em> is when there are two waves <u>with the same frequency</u>, and the peaks of one wave (the highest points) line up with the valleys (the lowest points) of the second one.

Constructive interference would cause the sound to be louder.

Absorption and reflection are interactions that would not take into account the fact that the headphones produce sounds.
