Answer:

Explanation:

Upon arrival we needed to hunt in this new land we only had five refills and they needed 50 g of gunpowder to be shot once. We only have 15 pounds of gunpowder. It is taking six shots to kill one of these wild turkeys. How many turkeys can be shot with 15 pounds of gunpowder?

If we had plenty of refills, and it takes 6 shots to kill a wild turkey at 50 gms of gunpowder per shot, then each turkey requires 6X50 =300gms of gunpowder.  We have 15X454 gms of gunpowder and have the potential to kill 15X454/300=22.7 or 22 turkeys.and it takes 6 shots to kill a wild turkey.

The limiting reagent is the number of refills, and withonly 5, we are out of luck and can't kill one turkey

Determine the relative amounts (in terms of volume fractions) for a 15 wt% sn-85 wt% pb alloy at 100°c. the densities of tin an
nikdorinn [45]
Volume fraction = volume of the element / volume of the alloy

Volume = density * mass

Base: 100 grams of alloy

mass of tin = 15 grams

mass of lead = 85 grams

volume = mass / density

Volume of tin = 15g / 7.29 g/cm^3 = 2.06 cm^3

Volume of lead = 85 g / 11.27 g/cm^3 = 7.54 cm^3

Volume fraction of tin = 2.06 cm^3 / (2.06 cm^3 + 7.54 cm^3) = 0.215

Volume fraction of lead = 7.54 cm^3 / (2.06 cm^3 + 7.54 cm^3) = 0.785

As you can verify the sum of the two volume fractions equals 1: 0.215 + 0.785 = 1.000

Consider a situation in which 211 g
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

3.00 mol

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of P₄ = 211 g

Mass of oxygen = 240 g

Moles of P₂O₅ = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

P₄ + 5O₂       →     2P₂O₅

Number of moles of P₄:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 211 g / 123.88 g/mol

Number of moles = 1.7 mol

Number of moles of O₂ :

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 240 g / 32g/mol

Number of moles = 7.5 mol

Now we will compare the moles of product with reactant.

                       O₂         :         P₂O₅

                        5          :           2

                        7.5       :        2/5×7.5 = 3.00

                       P₄          :         P₂O₅

                        1           :           2

                       1.7         :       2×1.7 = 3.4 mol

Oxygen is limiting reactant so the number of moles of P₂O₅ are 3.00 mol.

Mass of P₂O₅:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 3 mol ×283.9 g/mol

Mass = 852 g
