What is the cation in the chemical formula MnSe?

Chemistry
1 answer:
sineoko [7]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Mn

Explanation:

The cation in the chemical formula MnSe is the Mn specie.

  • A cation is a positively charge ion or radical.
  • Such an ion has lost electrons and this leaves a net positive charge on them.
  • The Mn is the cation
  • Most metals forms cations as they readily lose electrons due to their large atomic radius.
  • Se is the anion as it will carry a negative charge
  • Most non-metals are anions

How many moles of o2 are required for the complete reaction of 54.7 g of c2h4 to form co2 and h2o?
Hunter-Best [27]
The balanced chemical equation that illustrates this reaction is:
<span>C2H4 + 3O2 --> 2CO2 + 2H2O 
</span>
From the periodic table:
mass of carbon = 12 grams
mass of hydrogen = 1 gram
Therefore:
molar mass of C2H4 = 12(2) + 4(1) = 24 + 4 = 28 grams

number of moles = mass / molar mass
number of moles of C2H4 = 54.7 / 28 = 1.95 moles

From the balanced equation above:
3 moles of oxygen are required to react with one mole of C2H4, therefore, to know the number of moles required to react with 1.95 moles of C2H4, all you have to do is cross multiplication as follows:
number of oxygen moles = (1.95*3) / 1 = 5.85 moles

What is the percent yield in a reaction between 42.6 g O2 and 49.2 g Al if 72.4 g of Al2O3 is produced?
pashok25 [27]

Answer:

229%

Explanation:

The equation of the reaction is;

4Al(s) + 3O2(g) ----> 2Al2O3(s)

We must first determine the limiting reactant;

Number of moles of Al2O3 produced = mass/molar mass = 72.4g/101.96 g/mol = 0.71 moles

For Al

Number of moles reacted = mass/molar mass = 49.2g/27 g/mol = 1.8 moles

If 4 moles of Al yields 0.71 moles of Al2O3

1.8 moles of Al will yield 1.8 × 0.71/4 = 0.32 moles of Al2O3

For O2

Number of moles reacted = mass/molar mass = 42.6g/32g/mol = 1.33 moles

If 3 moles of O2 yields 0.71 moles of Al2O3

1.33 moles of O2 will yield 1.33 × 0.71/3 = 0.31 moles of Al2O3

Oxygen is the limiting reactant.

% yield = actual yield/ theoretical yield × 100/1

% yield = 0.71 moles/0.31 moles × 100

% yield = 229%
