Answer:
If 51.8 of Pb is reacting, it will require 4.00 g of O2
If 51.8 g of PbO is formed, it will require 3.47 g of O2.
Explanation:
Equation of the reaction:
2 Pb + O2 → 2 PbO
From the equation of reaction, 2 moles of lead metal, Pb, reacts with 1 mole of oxygen gas, O2, to produce 2 moles of lead (ii) oxide, PbO
Molar mass of Pb = 207 g
Molar mass of O2 = 32 g
Molar mass of PbO = 207 + 32 = 239 g
Therefore 2 × 207 g of Pb reacts with 32 g of O2 to produce 2 × 239 g of PbO
= 414 g of Pb reacts with 32 g of O2 to produce 478 g of PbO
Therefore, formation of 51.8 g of PbO will require (32/478) × 51.8 of O2 = 3.47 g of O2.
If 51.8 of Pb is reacting, it will require (32/414) × 51.8 g of O2 = 4.00 g of O2
Answer:
The answer is 6.25g.
Explanation:
First create your balanced equation. This will give you the stoich ratios needed to answer the question:
2C8H18 + 25O2 → 16CO2 + 18H2O
Remember, we need to work in terms of NUMBERS, but the question gives us MASS. Therefore the next step is to convert the mass of O2 into moles of O2 by dividing by the molar mass:
7.72 g / 16 g/mol = 0.482 mol
Now we can use the stoich ratio from the equation to determine how many moles of H2O are produced:
x mol H2O / 0.482 mol O2 = 18 H2O / 25 O2
x = 0.347 mol H2O
The question wants the mass of water, so convert moles back into mass by multiplying by the molar mass of water:
0.347 mol x 18 g/mol = 6.25g
Most of the compounds containing C and H are organic so A. CH4 is the correct option
