Answer: 0.34 mol
Justification:
1) Hepta means 7, so heptahyrate means 7 parts of water. On mole of magnesium sulfate heptadydrate has seven moles of water.
2) The formula of magnesium sulfate heptahydrate is:
Mg SO4 . 7 H2O
3) Calcualte the number of moles of the compound by dividing the mass in grams by the molar mass of formula.
molar mass:
Mg: 24.3 g/mol
S: 32.1 g/mol
O4: 4 * 16.0 g/mol = 64.0 g/mol
H2: 2 * 1.0 g/mol = 2.0 g/mol
O: 16 g/mol
Molar mass = 24.3 g/mol + 32.1 g/mol + 64.0 g/mol + 2.0 g/mol + 16.0 g/mol = 138.4 g/mol
number of moles = mass in grams / molar mass = 6.81 g / 138.4 g/mol = 0.049 mol
4) As stated, there are 7 moles of H2O per each mol of heptahydrate compoind, so the number of moles of water is 7 * 0.049 mol = 0.343 mol
Answer: 0.34 mol
Answer:
Explanation:
I think option d is correct
Answer:
A) 4P + 5O₂ → 2P₂O₅
Explanation:
A) 4P + 5O₂ → 2P₂O₅
This equation is balanced. There are four phosphorus and ten oxygen atoms are on both side of equation.
B) 5P + 4O₂ → 2P₄O₅
This equation is not balanced. There are five phosphorus and eight oxygen atoms on left, eight phosphorus ten oxygen on right side of equation.
C) 2P + O₂ → P₂O₅
This equation is not balanced. There are two phosphorus, two oxygen atoms on left and two phosphorus five oxygen on right side of equation.
D) 4P + 2O₂ → 2P₄O₅
This equation is not balanced. There are four phosphorus, four oxygen atoms on left and eight phosphorus ten oxygen on right side of equation.
