Reactives
-> Products
CuO
and water are products.
I
found this reaction which has CuO and water as products: decomposition of
Cu(OH)2.
Cu(OH)2
-> CuO + H2O
Stoichiometry calculus involve the mole
proportions you can see in the reaction: When 1 mole of Cu(OH)2 reacts, 1 mole of
CuO and 1 mole of H2O are formed.
Considering
the molar masses:
Cu(OH)2
= 83.56 g/mol
CuO
= 79.545 g/mol
H2O
= 18.015 g/mol
Then:
When 83.56 g of Cu(OH)2 react, 79.545 g of CuO and 18.015 g H2O are formed.
You
should use that numbers in the rule of three:
79.545
g CuO __________18.015 g water
3.327
g CuO__________ x =3.327*18.015 /79.545 g water
x= 0.7535 g water
Is it asking which is or isn’t balanced
False that atom is the smallest identifiable unit of a compound.
The smallest identifiable unit of a compound is the Element. Element is the one which make up the compound and element is made up by atoms. Example of element is oxygen and hydrogen which make up water (H2O) which is a compound.
