Answer:

Alcoa Process:

Al Reaction 2.74: 23+2+32→23++2

Explanation:

2O3 from the Bayer process is chlorinated under reducing condition in the presence of C at (700-900)0 C to produce AlCl3, CO, CO2. AlCl3 vapour from the reaction is condensed at 700C in a fluid bed containing AlCl3 particles. The solid AlCl3 particles containing feed into an electrolytic cell containing a fused chloride electrolyte (AlCl3+NaCl+LiCl) at 7000 C. On electrolysis, Al (liquid) formed at the cathode, gaseous Cl2 liberated at the anode.

Instead, it is extracted by electrolysis. The ore is first converted into pure aluminium oxide by the Bayer Process, and this is then electrolysed in solution in molten cryolite - another aluminium compound. The aluminium oxide has too high a melting point to electrolyse on its own. The usual aluminium ore is bauxite.

what volume of co2 is produced at stp when 270g of glucose are consumed in the following reaction? c6h12o6 + 6o2(g) -> 6co2 (
lana [24]

Answer:

202 L

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced equation

C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6 O₂(g) ⇒ 6 CO₂(g) + 6 H₂O(l)

Step 2: Calculate the moles corresponding to 270 g of C₆H₁₂O₆

The molar mass of C₆H₁₂O₆ is 180.16 g/mol.

270 g × 1 mol/180.16 g = 1.50 mol

Step 3: Calculate the moles of CO₂ generated from 1.50 moles of glucose

The molar ratio of C₆H₁₂O₆ to CO₂ is 1:6. The moles of CO₂ formed are 6/1 × 1.50 mol = 9.00 mol

Step 4: Calculate the volume of 9.00 moles of CO₂ at STP

The volume of 1 mole of an ideal gas at STP is 22.4 L.

9.00 mol × 22.4 L/mol = 202 L
