1) Chemical equation
16Fe(s) + 3S8(s) ---> 8Fe2S3
2) Molar ratios:
16 mol Fe : 3 mole S8 : 8 mol Fe2S3
3) Convert masses in grams to number of moles
number of moles = mass in grams / molar mass
a) iron, Fe
mass = 3.0 g
atomic mass = 55.845 g/mol
=> number of moles of Fe = 3.0g / 55.845 g/mol = 0.0537 mol
b) Sulfur, S8
mass = 2.5 g
molar mass = 8*32.065 g/mol = 256.52 g/mol
=> number of moles of S8 = 2.5g / 256.52 g/mol = 0.009746 mol
4) Limiting reactant
Theoretical ratio actual ratio
16 mol Fe / 3 mol S8 0.0537 mol Fe / 0.009746 mol S8
5.33 5.50
So, there is a little bit more Fe than the theoretical needed to react all the S8, which means the S8 is the limiting reactant.
5) Calculate the number of moles of iron (III) produced with 2.5 g (0.009746 moles) of S8
3moles S8 / 8 moles Fe2S3 = 0.009746 moles S8 / x
=> x = 0.009746 * 8 / 3 moles Fe2S3 = 0.026 moles Fe2S3
6) Convert 0.026 moles Fe2S3 into grams
mass in grams = number of moles * molar mass
molar mass of Fe2S3 = 207.9 g/mol
mass = 0.026 mol * 207.9 g/mol = 5.40 g
7) Answer: option D)
Liquid ammonia
<span>liquid lithium </span>
<span>What it means? It means that, for the same amount of energy input, one grams of either of the above two will go up a lesser number of degrees Celsius than water will.</span>
Answer:
finding the mass percentage oven element in a compound might sound complicated, but the calculation is simple. For example, to determine the mass percentage of hydrogen in water H2O, divide the major mass of hydrogen by the total molar mass of water and then multiply the result by 100
The correct answer is c. Temperature is the average kinetic energy of a sample so if two samples have the same temperature they will also have the same average kinetic energy. I hope this helps. Let me know if anything is unclear.
