I think that the answer is 4, but i dont know
From mole ratios, the mass ratio of different elements can be predicted. Also the volume can be predicted based on density for liquids and ideal gas law equation for gases. From the mole ratios, the empirical formula can be predicted, as well as the molecular formula given another data which is mass of the sample.
The stock solution contains 10.5 moles of HCl per litre. A 5.5 litre solution of 2.5M HCl contains 5.5x2.5 = 13.75moles of HCl. Since every litre of stock solution provides 10.5M HCl, the amount of stock solution needed is 13.75/10.5 = 1.309L. Therefore you would dilute 1.309L of stock solution to 5.5L
The chemical equation without coefficients is:
Ca + CO2 + O2 --------> Ca CO3
You can balance that equation by trial an error.
This is the chemical equation balanced:
2Ca + 2CO2 + O2 --------> 2Ca CO3
Count the atoms on each side to check the balance
Atom Left side right side
Ca 2 2
C 2 2
O 2*2 + 2 = 6 2*3 = 6
Then those are the coefficients:
a0 = 2
a1 = 2
a2 = 1
a3 = 2
