Answer:

simple

Explanation:

The glow stick's outer plastic tube holds a solution of an oxalate ester and an electron-rich dye along with a glass vial filled with a hydrogen peroxide solution. ... Glow sticks light up when oxalate esters react with hydrogen peroxide to form a high-energy intermediate

Manganese(iv) oxide reacts with aluminum to form elemental manganese and aluminum oxide: 3mno2+4al→3mn+2al2o3part awhat mass of

Oxana [17]

<span>12.4 g First, calculate the molar masses by looking up the atomic weights of all involved elements. Atomic weight manganese = 54.938044 Atomic weight oxygen = 15.999 Atomic weight aluminium = 26.981539 Molar mass MnO2 = 54.938044 + 2 * 15.999 = 86.936044 g/mol Now determine the number of moles of MnO2 we have 30.0 g / 86.936044 g/mol = 0.345081265 mol Looking at the balanced equation 3MnO2+4Alâ†’3Mn+2Al2O3 it's obvious that for every 3 moles of MnO2, it takes 4 moles of Al. So 0.345081265 mol / 3 * 4 = 0.460108353 mol So we need 0.460108353 moles of Al to perform the reaction. Now multiply by the atomic weight of aluminum. 0.460108353 mol * 26.981539 g/mol = 12.41443146 g Finally, round to 3 significant figures, giving 12.4 g</span>

Answer:

Explanation:

carbon in group 4A needs 4 more electrons to be stable

hydrogen in group 1A has one electron needs 1 more t o be stale

oxygen in group 6A has 6 and needs 2 more to be stable

They all obtain this by sharing electrons 8 around C &O, 2 around H

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>Step 1: Define</u>

[RxN - Balanced] C₆H₁₂O₆ → 2C₂H₅OH + 2CO₂

[Given] 500. g C₆H₁₂O₆ (Glucose)

[Solve] moles C₂H₅OH (Ethanol)

<u>Step 2: Identify Conversions</u>

[RxN] 1 mol C₆H₁₂O₆ → 2 mol C₂H₅OH

[PT] Molar mass of C - 12.01 g/mol

[PT] Molar Mass of H - 1.01 g/mol

[PT] Molar Mass of O - 16.00 g/mol

Molar Mass of C₆H₁₂O₆ - 6(12.01) + 12(1.01) + 6(16.00) = 180.18 g/mol

<u>Step 3: Stoichiometry</u>

[DA] Set up conversion: $\displaystyle 500 \ g \ C_6H_{12}O_6(\frac{1 \ mol \ C_6H_{12}O_6}{180.18 \ g \ C_6H_{12}O_6})(\frac{2 \ mol \ C_2H_5OH}{1 \ mol \ C_6H_{12}O_6})$
[DA} Multiply/Divide [Cancel out units]: $\displaystyle 5.55001 \ mol \ C_2H_5OH$

<u>Step 4: Check</u>

<em>Follow sig fig rules and round. We are given 3 sig figs.</em>

5.55001 mol C₂H₅OH ≈ 5.55 mol C₂H₅OH
