Answer:

(a) 1.92 moles of Bi produced.

(b) 80.6 grams

Explanation:

Balanced equation: Bi2O3(s) + 3C(s) → 2Bi(s) + 3CO(g)

1st find moles of Bi2O3:

Bi2O3 has Mr of 466 and mass of 447 g

$\hookrightarrow moles = \frac{mass}{Mr}$

$\hookrightarrow moles = \frac{447}{466}$

$\hookrightarrow moles = 0.959227$

2nd find moles of Bi:

Bi2O3 : 2Bi

→ 1 : 2 ------ this is molar ratio.

→ 0.959227 : (0.959227)*2

→ 0.959227 : 1.91845

→ 0.959227 : 1.92

Therefore 1.92 moles of Bi was produced.

3rd Find moles of 3CO:

Bi2O3 : 3CO

1 : 3

0.959227 : (0.959227 )*3

0.959227 : 2.87768

3CO has 2.87768 moles and we know the Mr is 28.

$\hookrightarrow mass = moles * Mr$

$\hookrightarrow mass = 2.87768 * 28$

$\hookrightarrow mass =80.575$ g

Therefore 80.575 grams of CO was produced.

Answer:

1.92 moles of Bi are formed

80.6 grams CO are formed

Explanation:

You are given 447 g Bi2O3 (from the periodic table add up the atomic mass of 2 Bi + 3 O to get 465.96 grams Bi2O3 = 1 mole) and the ratio from the balanced equation is 1 mole Bi2O3 = 2 mole Bi. now you have all ratios you can set up your problem:

447 g Bi2O3 x 1 mole Bi2O3 x 2 mole Bi = 1.92 mole Bi

465.96 g Bi2O3 1 mole Bi2O3

Looking at the balanced equation you find the ratio 3 mole CO = 1 mole Bi2O3, and from the periodic table we know C is 12 g/mole and O is 16 g/mole (12 + 16 = 28 grams / mole):

447 g Bi2O3 x 1 mole Bi2O3 x 3 mole CO x 28 g CO = 80.6 grams CO

465.96 g Bi2O3 1 mole Bi2O3 1 mol CO

How long would it take for 1.50 mol of water at 100.0 ∘c to be converted completely into steam if heat were added at a constant

Aleksandr-060686 [28]

To determine the time it takes to completely vaporize the given amount of water, we first determine the total heat that is being absorbed from the process. To do this, we need information on the latent heat of vaporization of water. This heat is being absorbed by the process of phase change without any change in the temperature of the system. For water, it is equal to 40.8 kJ / mol.

Total heat = 40.8 kJ / mol ( 1.50 mol ) = 61.2 kJ of heat is to be absorbed

Given the constant rate of 19.0 J/s supply of energy to the system, we determine the time as follows:

Time = 61.2 kJ ( 1000 J / 1 kJ ) / 19.0 J/s = 3221.05 s

Select the three most acidic hydrogen atoms in lactic acid, CH3CH(OH)CO2H, and rank them in order of decreasing acidity. Explain

Olin [163]

It is easier to determine this if we draw the structural formula of lactic acid as shown in the attached picture. There are three functional groups in lactic acid: carboxyl group, hydroxyl group, and the parent alkane chain. Any of the hydrogens in the alkane chain is the least acidic. Then, it is followed by the H in the hydroxyl group. The most acidic is the H in the carboxyl group.

This is the chemical formula for talc (the main ingredient in talcum powder): mg3(si2o5)2(oh)2. an analytical chemist fins that

weqwewe [10]

In one mole of talc, we observe that there are:
3 moles of Mg
4 moles of Si
2 moles of H
12 moles of O

The molar ratio of O to Mg is then:

12 moles of O : 3 moles of Mg = 4 : 1

Therefore, if 6.1 moles of Mg are present, the moles of O are:

4 * 6.1 = 24.4 moles of O

If 1,2-dichloroethane has a density of 1.23 g/ml, how do you expect it to sit in a separatory funnel with an aqueous solution?

Jobisdone [24]

1,2-dichloroethane of density 1.23 g/ml would settle down an aqueous solution.

<h3>Density:</h3>

Knowing whether the aqueous layer is above or below the organic layer in the separatory funnel is crucial since it determines which layer is ultimately kept and discarded. Because immiscible solvents have different densities, they will stack on top of one another. The less-dense solution will rest on top, and the more dense one will rest at the bottom.

Due to their low density of less than 1 g/mL, the majority of non-halogenated organic solvents will float on top of an aqueous solution (if they are immiscible). One significant exception is that halogenated solvents will sink below aqueous solutions because they are denser than water (having densities greater than 1 g/mL). Except for halogenated solvents like dichloromethane, which are usually on the bottom, most organic solvents, such as diethyl ether, are on top.
