Consider the reaction 2H2(g)+O2(g)→2H2O(l) 2 H 2 ( g ) + O 2 ( g ) → 2 H 2 O ( l ) What is the mass of water, H2O(l) H 2 O ( l )
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

mH₂O = 6.4116 g

Explanation:

Let's write the given reaction:

2H₂ + O₂ -------> 2H₂O

The problem states that 5.7 g of oxygen reacts with excess hydrogen, hence, the limiting reagent is the oxygen. With this mass of oxygen, we can determine the moles, and then, the moles of water with the mole ratio:

moles = mass / atomic weight        AW of O₂ = 16 g/mol

Replacing we have:

moles O₂ = 5.70 / (16 * 2)

moles O₂ = 0.1781 moles

According to the balanced reaction, 1 mole of Oxygen produces 2 moles of water, so we have a mole ratio 1:2, therefore the moles of water would be twice the moles of oxygen:

moles H₂O = 0.1781 * 2 = 0.3562 moles

Finally the mass of water can be calculated solving for the mass from the expression of moles, and using molecular mass of water:

m = moles * MM          MM H₂O = 18 g/mol

m = 0.3562 * 18

<h2>mH₂O = 6.4116 g</h2>

Hope this helps

Copper(I) Iodine (cul) is often added to the table salt as a dietary source of iodine. How many moles of Cul are contained in 1.
allsm [11]

Answer:

0.238 millimoles

Explanation:

Given:

Mass of the table salt = 1.00 lb = 454 g

Copper(I) Iodine (cul) present in the table = 0.0100% by mass

or

Copper(I) Iodine (cul) present in the 1 pound of salt = 0.01% of 454 g

= 0.0454 grams

Molar mass of the CuI = 63.54 grams + 126.90 grams = 190.44 grams

Thus,

the number of moles of CuI present in 1 pound of salt = Mass / Molar mass

= 0.0454 / 190.44

= 2.38 × 10⁻⁴ moles

= 0.238 millimoles

Assign the oxidation state for all the atoms:<br><br>As2O3<br><br>Show work
Sonja [21]

<u>Answer:</u> Oxidation state of Arsenic in the given compound is +3 and that of oxygen is -2.

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given a compound having formula As_2O_3 and we need to find the oxidation state of all the atoms in this compound. There are 2 different atoms present in this : Arsenic and Oxygen

Oxidation state is the number which is assigned to an element in a compound which represents the number of electrons lost or gained by an atom in a compound.

Oxidation state of oxygen as -2 which is same always. Now, to calculate the oxidation state of Arsenic, we take the oxidation state of it be 'x'

As, there are two arsenic atoms and three oxygen atoms, then:

\Rightarrow 2(x)+3(-2)=0\\\Rightarrow 2x-6=0\\\Rightarrow x=+3

Hence, oxidation state of Arsenic in the given compound is +3 and that of oxygen is -2.

The molar mass of the compound was found to be 30.069 g/mol. what is the molecular formula? express your answer as a chemical fo
kodGreya [7K]

For us to accurately determine what compound this is, additional info must be given. However I can suggest two compounds which have molecular mass of about 30.07 g/mol.

1. It could be NO or nitric oxide.

The molecular mass is 16 + 14= 30 g/mol

But if we search the exact weight, it is 30.01 g/mol

 

2. It could also be (CH3)2  or ethane.

The molecular mass is 2*12+ 6*1= 30 g/mol

But if we search the exact weight, it is 30.07 g/mol.

 

<span>So we could say it more likely to to be (CH3)2 </span>
