<h2>Answer:  kilograms of cryolite ≈ 50.23 kg</h2>

Explanation:

<u><em>Write the balanced equation</em></u>

Let's start off by writing the reaction for the formation of cryolite:

Al₂O₃  +  6NaOH  +  12HF    →    2Na₃AlF₆  +  9H₂O

<em><u>Determine the limiting factor</u></em>

moles = mass ÷ molar mass

moles of Al₂O₃ = 12200 g ÷ 101.96 g/mol = 119.65 mol

moles of NaOH = 57400 g ÷  39.997 g/mol = 1435.11 mol

moles of HF = 57400 g ÷ 20.01 g/mol = 2868.57 mol

Since Al₂O₃ has the smallest number of moles in the reaction, it is the limiting factor. As such we will have to use the moles of Al₂O₃ to determine the moles of cryolite that will be produced.

<em><u>Find the mole ratio between the limiting factor and the cryolite</u></em>

The mole ratio of Al₂O₃ : Na₃AlF₆ based on the balanced equation is 1 : 2

∴ since the moles of Al₂O₃ = 119.65 mol

        the moles of Na₃AlF₆ = 119.65 mol × 2 = 239.3 mol

<u><em>Calculate the mass of the Cryolite</em></u>

Mass cryolite = moles × molar mass

                      = 239.3 mol × 209.9 g/mol

                      =  50229.07 g

      ∴ kilograms of cryolite ≈ 50.23 kg

Give two reasons why a luminous flame is not used for heating purposes. (2mks) a​
Natali [406]

Answer:

The Two reasons are :-

1. Combustion efficiency

2. Standardization of test conditions as non-luminous flame.

Explanation:

A luminous flame isn't suitable for heating as it gives out soot (A black powdery or flaky substance consisting largely of amorphous carbon, produced by the incomplete burning of organic matter)

. Sulfur dioxide can be produced in the laboratory by the reaction of hydrochloric acid and a sulfite salt such as sodium sulfit
shutvik [7]

Answer:

Mass of SO₂ can be made from 25.0 g of Na₂SO₃ and 22 g of HCl = 12.672 g

Explanation:

SO₂( sulfur dioxide) can be produced in the lab. by the reaction of hydrochloric acid & sulphite salt such as sodium.

        the balanced chemical equation is as follows

                       Na₂SO₃ + 2 HCl → 2 NaCl + SO₂ + H₂O

Moles of Na₂SO₃ = \frac{Mass}{Molecular mass} =\frac{25}{126} = 0.198

Moles of HCl = \frac{mass}{molecular mass}=\frac{22}{36.5}= 0.6

using mole ratio method to find limiting reagent

      For sodium sulfite \frac{mole}{stoichiometry}  = \frac{0.198}{1}= 0.198

 for HCl \frac{mole}{stoichiometry}  = \frac{0.6}{2}= 0.3

since <u>sodium sulfite</u> is <u>limiting reactant</u> for above chemical reaction

1 mole of Na₂SO₃ produce 1 mole of SO₂

0.198 mole of Na₂SO₃ produce 0.198 mole of SO₂

∴ Mass of SO₂ produce = mole x molar mass of SO₂

                                       = 0.198 x 64

                                       = 12.672 g

What is the relationship between KMT and Sea Level Rise?<br> CER format<br> 3-4 sentences
ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Sea level may rise as a result of the expansion of seawater and the melting of land-based ice due to a warming environment.

<h3>What is the sea level?</h3>

The sea level is the fundamental level for calculating height and depth on Earth. Since the ocean is one continuous body of water, its surface tends to seek a constant level. The sea surface is not actually level due to winds, currents, river discharges, fluctuations in gravity, and temperature.

<h3>Why is sea level important?</h3>

People are impacted by sea level changes through flooding, the inability of rivers to empty into the ocean due to the sea being too high, and the surge of seawater onto the land during storms. Our drinking water and the ability to cultivate crops could be harmed if sea water gets into farms and reservoirs.
