Answer:

Explanation:

The chemical expression for the reaction between iron and oxygen is:

4Fe(s)  +  3O₂ (g)  \to 2Fe₂O₃ (s)

The number of moles of Fe = mass of Fe/ molecular mass of Fe

The number of moles of Fe = 56 g/ 55.845 g/mol

The number of moles of Fe = 1.002 moles of Fe

The number of moles of oxygen = mass of oxygen/ molecular mass of oxygen

The number of moles of oxygen = 156 g /32 g/mol

The number of moles of oxygen = 4.875 moles of oxygen

Assume that Fe is the limiting reactant, the number of Fe₂O₃ can be calculated as:

moles of Fe₂O₃ = 1.002 mole of Fe × 2 moles of Fe₂O₃/ 4 moles of Fe

moles of Fe₂O₃ = 0.501 mole of Fe₂O₃

Assume that O₂ is the limiting factor, the number of Fe₂O₃ is:

moles of Fe₂O₃ = 4.875 moles of O₂ × 2 moles of Fe₂O₃/ 3 moles of O₂

moles of Fe₂O₃ = 3.25 mole of Fe₂O₃

Thus, after the reaction is complete, Fe and O₂ contain different moles of Fe₂O₃. Only Fe gets consumed in the reaction and it is the limiting factor.

A 0.0035 M aqueous solution of a particular compound has pH = 2.46. The compound is (A) a weak base (B) a weak acid (C) a strong
slava [35]

Answer:

(a) A strong acid

Explanation:

We have given the pH of the solution is 2.46

pH=2.46  

So the concentration of H^+=10^{-pH}=10^{-2.46}=0.00346

solution having H+ concentration more than H^+=10^{-7} is acidic

Since in the given solution, H+ concentration is 0.00346 M which is more than 10^{-7}[/tex] so this is an acidic solution

Note-The concentration of H^+ decide the behavior of the solution that is, it is acidic or basic

A chemical reaction is done in the setup shown , resulting in a change of mass. What will happen if the same reaction is done in
irina1246 [14]
<h2>Answer:</h2>

The mass of the system will remain the same if there is no conversion of mass to energy in the reaction.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • If the system is closed, then according to the law of mass conservation the mass of the reaction system will remain the same.
  • <u><em>Law of conservation of the mass: In simple words, it is described as the mass of a closed system can never be changed, it may transfer from one form to another or change into energy.</em></u>
  • But if the reaction involves energy transfer like heat or light production, in this case, the mass can be changed.

A 63.5 g sample of an unidentified metal absorbs 355 ) of heat when its temperature changes
insens350 [35]

0.208 is the specific heat capacity of the metal.

Explanation:

Given:

mass (m)  = 63.5 grams 0R 0.0635 kg

Heat absorbed (q) = 355 Joules

Δ T (change in temperature) = 4.56 degrees or 273.15+4.56 = 268.59 K

cp (specific heat capacity) = ?

the formula used for heat absorbed  and to calculate specific heat capacity of a substance will be calculated by using the equation:

q = mc Δ T

c = \frac{q}{mΔ T}

c = \frac{355}{63.5X 268.59}

 = 0.208 J/gm K

specific heat capacity of 0.208 J/gm K

The specific heat capacity is defined as  the heat required to raise the temperature of a substance which is 1 gram. The temperature is in Kelvin and energy required is in joules.

6.An acid-base indicator is usually a weak acid with a characteristic color in the protonated and deprotonated forms. Because br
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

At equal concentration of HBCG and BCG^-, the colour is green. This colour first appears at pH = 3.8

Explanation:

HBCG is an indicator that is prepared by dissolving the solid in ethanol.

Since

Ka=[BCG−][H3O+][HBCG]When [BCG-] = [HBCG], then Ka = [H3O+].

If pH = 3.8

Ka= [H3O+] = -antilog pH = -antilog (3.8)

Ka= 1.58 ×10^-4
