Consider this reaction involving an unknown element X. F2+2XBr⟶Br2+2XF When 1.300 g of XBr reacts, 0.7241 g of Br2 is produced.

Calculate the molar mass of X, and then identify its element symbol.

The molar mass of X would be 63.55 g/mol and the chemical symbol of X would be Cu (copper).

From the equation of the reaction: F2+2XBr⟶Br2+2XF

The mole ratio of XBr to Br2 is 2:1

Mole of Br2 = mass/molar mass

                      = 0.7241/159.808

                       = 0.004531 mole

Mole of XBr = 2 x mole of Br2

                      = 2 x 0.004531

                        = 0.009062 mole

Molar mass of XBr = mass/mole

                            = 1.300/0.009062

                                 = 143.456 g/mol

Since the molar mass of Br is 79.904, the molar of X would be:

                             143.456 - 79.904

                                   = 63.55 g/mol

Hence, X would be Cu.

A student performed a chemical reaction in which 35 grams of hydrogen and 65 grams of oxygen reacted to form water. What is the
sergejj [24]

Answer:

The mass of the product is 73,06 g

Explanation:

The reaction to form water is:

2H2 + O2 ---> 2H2O

35 g     65 g

Molar mass H2 = 2g/m ---> I have 17,5 moles (35g / 2 g/m)

Molar mass O2 = 32g/m ---> I have 2,03 moles (65g / 32g/m)

2 moles of H2 __reacts with __ 1 mol O2

17,5 moles of H2 __ reacts with ___ (17,5 m . 1 m) / 2 m = 8,75 m

I have just 2,03 m of O2 and I need 8,75 m so O2 is my limiting reagent

1 mol of O2 ___ reacts with 2 moles H2

2,03 moles of O2 __ reacts with  (2,03 m . 2 m) / 1 m = 4,06 m

I have 17,5 moles of H2 and I need 4,06 m. H2 is my excess reagent

<u><em>"All operations are done with the limiting reagent"</em></u>

1 mol O2 are required____ to form 2 H2O

2,03 mol O2 are required __ to form (2,03m . 2m) / 1m = 4,06 m

Molar mass of water: 18 g/m

Mass of water ----> Molar mass . Moles water = 18 g/m . 4,06 m = 73,08g
