Answer:

No you can't

Explanation:

The atomic number is the amount of protons in element's nucleus, that's one reason why. The second reason is that the atomic mass is protons and neutrons combined, their estimated value, which doesn't show how much neutrons are in an element. It does show combined, but not specifically neutrons

Answer:

1) <u>16.8 L CO2</u>

<u>2) 36.96 L NH3</u>

<u>3) </u> <u>9.88 L CO2 </u>

<u>4) 56.99 L H2O</u>

Explanation:

How many liters of carbon dioxide gas will be produced when 75.0 g of calcium carbonate decomposes to form calcium oxide when at STP?

CaCO3 → CaO + CO2

Moles calcium carbonate = 75.0 grams / 100.09 g/mol

Moles calcium carbonate = 0.750 moles

For 1 mol CaCO3 we'll have 1 mol CaO and 1 mol CO2

For 0.750 moles CaCO3 we'll have 0.750 moles CO2

1 mol = 22.4 L

0.750 moles CO2 = 0.750 *22.4 L =<u> 16.8 L CO2</u>

2. Hydrogen gas reacts with 23.1 g of nitrogen gas to produce ammonia (NH3). What volume of ammonia will be produced at STP?

3H2 + N2 → 2NH3

Moles N2 = 23.1 grams / 28.0 g/mol

Moles N2 = 0.825 moles

For 3 moles H2 we need 1 mol N2 to produce 2 moles NH3

For 0.825 moles N2 we'll have 2*0.825 = 1.65 moles NH3

1 mol = 22.4 L

1.65 mol = 1.65 * 22.4 L = <u>36.96 L NH3</u>

3. Iron (III) oxide reacts with carbon monoxide to form iron and carbon dioxide. How many liters of carbon dioxide will be produced from 23.5 g of iron (III) oxide when at STP?

Fe2O3 + 3CO → 2Fe + 3CO2

Moles Fe2O3 = 23.5 grams / 159.69 g/mol

Moles Fe2O3 = 0.147 moles

For 1 mol Fe2O3 we need 3 moles CO to produce 2 moles Fe and 3 moles CO2

For 0.147 moles Fe2O3 we'll have 3*0.147 = 0.441 moles CO2

1 mol = 22.4 L

0.441 moles = 22.4 * 0.441 = <u>9.88 L CO2 </u>

<u />

4.How many liters of water vapor would be produced in the combustion of 12.5L of ethane, C2H6 at STP?

2C2H6 + 7O2 →4CO2 + 6H2O

22.4 L = 1 mol

12.5 L = 0.848 moles C2H6

For 2 moles C2H6 we need 7 moles O2 to produce 4 moles CO2 and 6 moles H2O

For 0.848 moles C2H6 we'll have 3*0.848 =  2.544 moles H2O

1 mol = 22.4 L

2.544 moles = 22.4 L * 2.544 = <u>56.99 L H2O</u>

If 5.85 grams of cobalt metal react with 15.8 grams of silver nitrate, how many grams of silver metal can be formed and how many
vladimir2022 [97]
Answers:
<span>Answer 1: 10.03 g of siver metal can be formed.</span>
Answer 2: 3.11 g of Co are left over.

Work:

1) Unbalanced chemical equation (given):

<span>Co + AgNO3 → Co(NO3)2 + Ag

2) Balanced chemical equation
</span>
<span>Co + 2AgNO3 → Co(NO3)2 + 2Ag

3) mole ratios

1 mol Co : 2 mole AgNO3 : 1 mol Co(NO3)2 : 2 mol Ag

4) Convert the masses in grams of the reactants into number of moles

4.1) 5.85 grams of Co

# moles = mass in grams / atomic mass

atomic mass of Co = 58.933 g/mol

# moles Co = 5.85 g / 58.933 g/mol = 0.0993 mol

4.2) 15.8 grams of Ag(NO3)

# moles Ag(NO3) = mass in grams / molar mass

molar mass AgNO3 = 169.87 g/mol

# moles Ag(NO3) = 15.8 g / 169.87 g/mol = 0.0930 mol

5) Limiting reactant

Given the mole ratio 1 mol Co : 2 mol Ag(NO3) you can conclude that there is not enough Ag(NO3) to make all the Co react.

That means that Ag(NO3) is the limiting reactant, which means that it will be consumed completely, whilce Co is the excess reactant.

6) Product formed.

Use this proportion:

2 mol Ag(NO3)           0.0930mol Ag(NO3)    
--------------------- =      ---------------------------
    2 mol Ag                              x

=> x = 0.0930 mol

Convert 0.0930 mol Ag to grams:

mass Ag = # moles * atomic mass = 0.0930 mol * 107.868 g/mol = 10.03 g

Answer 1: 10.03 g of siver metal can be formed.

6) Excess reactant left over

    1 mol Co                             x
----------------------- =  ----------------------------
2 mole Ag(NO3)       0.0930 mol Ag(NO3)

=> x = 0.0930 / 2 mol Co = 0.0465 mol Co reacted

Excess = 0.0993 mol - 0.0465 mol = 0.0528 mol

Convert to grams:

0.0528 mol * 58.933 g/mol = 3.11 g

Answer 2: 3.11 g of Co are left over.

A given sample of a gas has a volume of 3 liters at a
ycow [4]

Answer:

B) 12

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial volume  = 3L

Initial pressure  = 4atm

Final pressure  = 6atm

Unknown:

Final volume  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we apply Boyle's law which states that "the volume of a fixed mass of a gas varies inversely as the pressure changes if the temperature is constant".

   P₁V₁  = P₂V₂

 P and V are pressure and temperature values

 1 and 2 are initial and final states.

    PV product  = 3 x 4 = 12
