Answer:
13.5 g
Explanation:
This question is solved easily if we remember that the number of moles is obtained by dividing the mass into the atomic weight or molar mass depending if we are referring to elements or molecules.
Therefore, the mass of aluminum in the reaction will the 0.050 mol Al times the atomic weight of aluminum.
number of moles = n = mass of Al / Atomic Weight Al
⇒ mass Al = n x Atomic Weight Al = 0.050 mol x 27 g mol⁻¹
= 13.5 g
We have three significant figures in 0.050 and therefore we should have three significant figures in our answer.
Answer is: this is an example of an Arrhenius acid.
An Arrhenius acid is a
substance that dissociates in water to form hydrogen ions or protons (H⁺).
For example hydrochloric acid: HCl(aq) → H⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq).
An Arrhenius base is a
substance that dissociates in water to form hydroxide ions (OH⁻<span>).
In this example lithium hydroxide is an Arrhenius base:</span>
LiOH(aq) → Li⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq).
Some similarities between deserts and rainforests are that they support complex ecosystems, are powered by the sun/photosynthetic plants, are dangerous/mostly uninhabitable for humans, due to both conditions and wildlife, and are found mostly in the tropics
