Answer:
H₂O is the limiting reactant
Theoretical yield of 240 g Al₂O₃ and 14 g H₂
Explanation:
Find how many moles of one reactant is needed to completely react with the other.
6.5 mol Al × (3 mol H₂O / 2 mol Al) = 9.75 mol H₂O
We need 9.75 mol of H₂O to completely react with 6.5 mol of Al. But we only have 7.2 mol of H₂O. Therefore, H₂O is the limiting reactant.
Now find the theoretical yield:
7.2 mol H₂O × (1 mol Al₂O₃ / 3 mol H₂O) × (102 g Al₂O₃ / mol Al₂O₃) ≈ 240 g Al₂O₃
7.2 mol H₂O × (3 mol H₂ / 3 mol H₂O) × (2 g H₂ / mol H₂) ≈ 14 g H₂
Since the data was given to two significant figures, we must round our answer to two significant figures as well.
Answer:
Empirical CHO2
Molecular C2H2O4
Explanation:
To determine the formulas, firstly, we need to divide the percentage compositions by the atomic masses.
Kindly note that the atomic mass of carbon, oxygen and hydrogen are 12, 16 and 1 respectively. We proceed with the division as follows:
C = 26.7/12 = 2.225
H = 2.2/1 = 2.2
O = 71.1/16 = 4.44375
We then proceed to divide by the smallest value which is 2.2 in this case
C = 2.25/2.2 = 1
H = 2.2/2.2 = 1
O = 4.44375/2.2 = 2
Thus, the empirical formula is CHO2
We now proceed to get the molecular formula as follows
[12+ 1 + 16(2) ]n = 90.04
45n = 90.04
n = 90.04/45 = 2
The molecular formula is :
C2H2O4
5. The difference between mass and weight it that mass is the volume inside a object.
I'm pretty sure its an electron. I hope this helps! (:
