First, calculate the number of moles of sodium present with the given mass,
31.5 g of sodium x (1 mol sodium/ 23 g sodium) = 1.37 mol sodium
It is given in the equation that for every 2mols of sodium, one mol of H2 is produced.
mols of H2 = (1.37 mols sodium)(1 mol H2/ 2 mols sodium)
mols of H2 = 0.685 mols H2
Then, at STP, 1 mol of gas = 22.4 L.
volume of H2 = (0.685 mols H2)(22.4 L / 1 mol)
volume of H2 = 15.34 L
Answer: 15.34 L
Answer:
D.) 4
Explanation:
Al + 3 O₂ --> 2 Al₂O₃
In the equation, there are:
<em>Reactants:</em> 1 Al and 6 O
<em>Products:</em> 4 Al and 6 O
To determine how many atoms there are of each, you multiply the coefficients by the subscripts attached to the atoms. While the question doesn't ask, as you can see, the oxygen atoms are balanced because there is an equal amount on both sides. To balance the aluminum atoms, you can get 4 aluminum atoms on the reactants side by using a coefficient of 4.
The new equation would look this this:
4 Al + 3 O₂ --> 2 Al₂O₃
There are now:
<em>Reactants:</em> 4 Al and 6 O
<em>Products:</em> 4 Al and 6 O
