K:

m=155g
M=39g/mol

n = 155g / 39g/mol ≈ 3,97mol

KNO₃:

m=122g
M=101g/mol

n = 122g/101g/mol = 1,21mol

2K          +            10KNO₃  ⇒  6K₂O + N₂
2mol        :            10mol
3,97mol   :           1,21mol
                             limiting reagent

KNO₃ is limiting reagent

The volume of a gas is 36.0 ml at 10.0°c and 4.50 atm. at what temperature (°c) will the gas have a pressure of 3.50 atm and a v
galben [10]
Using the combined gas law, where PV/T = constant, we first solve for PV/T for the initial conditions: (4.50 atm)(36.0 mL)/(10.0 + 273.15 K) = 0.57213.
Remember to use absolute temperature.
For the final conditions: (3.50 atm)(85.0 mL)/T = 297.5/T
Since these must equal, 0.57213 = 297.5/T
T = 519.98 K
Subtracting 273.15 gives 246.83 degC.

A student builds a model of a race car. The scale is 1:15. In the scale model, the car is 8 cm tall.How tall is the actual car?
Xelga [282]

let the actual height of car be x

now, according to question,

  • \dfrac{1}{15}  =  \dfrac{8}{x}

  • x = 15 \times 8

  • x = 120 \:  \: cm

  • height \:  \: of \:  \: car   =   120 \:   cm \:  \: or \:  \: 1.2 \:  \: m

Which of the following statements is true about the following reaction?
MAVERICK [17]

The correct reaction equation is:

3NaHCO_{3} (aq) + C_{6}H_{8}O_{7} (aq) \rightarrow 3CO_{2} (g) + 3H_{2}O (l) + Na_{3}C_{6}H_{5}O_{7} (aq)

Answer:

b) 1 mole of water is produced for every mole of carbon dioxide produced.

Explanation: <u>CONVERT EVERYTHING TO MOLES OR VOLUME, THEN COMPARE IT WITH THE COMPOUND'S STOICHIOMETRY IN CHEMICAL EQUATION.</u>

a) <u>22.4 L of CO_{2} gas</u> is produced only when <u>\frac{22.4}{3} L of  C_{6}H_{8}O_{7}</u> is reacted with 22.4 L of NaHCO_{3}. So it is wrong.

b) Since in the chemical equation the stoichiometric coefficient of CO_{2}  and H_{2}O are same so the number of moles or volume of each of them will be same whatever the amount of reactants taken. <u>Therefore it is correct option.</u>

c)  6.02\times 10^{23} molecules is equal 1 mole of Na_{3}C_{6}H_{5}O_{7} if produced then 3 moles of NaHCO_{3} is required, which is not given in the option. So it is wrong.

d) 54 g of water or 3 moles of H_{2}O (<em>Molecular Weight of water is 18 g</em>) is produced when 3 moles of NaHCO_{3} is used but in this option only one mole of NaHCO_{3} is given. So it is wrong.

The molecular weight of a gas is ________ g/mol if 6.7 g of the gas occupies 6.3 l at stp.
PIT_PIT [208]
At STP, also known as standard temperature and pressure, 1 mole of a gas occupies 22.4 L. Since we are given with the volume of 6.3L, we calculate the amount of gas in mol. 
                               n = (6.3L)/ (22.4L/mol) = 0.28125 mol
We are given with the mass of 6.7 g. Therefore, the molar mass or molecular weight of the gas is equal to,
                                          6.7g/0.28125 mol = 23.82 g/mol

If a car travels 1255 miles how many kilometers is that i mile = 1.609km
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

2,019 km

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Distance traveled by the car (D): 1,255 mi

Step 2: Convert the distance traveled by the car to kilometers

To convert one unit into another, we use a conversion factor. In this case, the appropriate conversion factor between miles and kilometers is 1 mile = 1.609 km. The distance traveled by the car, in kilometers, is:

D = 1,255 mi × (1.609 km/1 mi) = 2,019 km
