A 10 gram sample of iron reacts with oxygen to form 18.2 grams of ferric oxide. How many grams of oxygen reacted?
Answer:
[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf 8.2 \ grams}}[/tex]
Explanation:
According to the Law of Conservation of Mass, the mass of the products must equal the mass of the reactants.
mass products = mass reactantsIn this problem, the reaction is:
[tex]iron + oxygen = ferric \ oxygen[/tex]
The reactants are iron and oxygen. We know the mass of the iron sample is 10 grams. The product is ferric oxide. The mass of the ferric oxide sample is 18.2 grams.[tex]10 \ g + oxygen=18.2 \ g[/tex]
We want to find how many grams of oxygen reacted. We have to get the oxygen by itself. 10 is being added to oxygen. The inverse of addition is subtraction. Subtract 10 from both sides of the equation.
[tex]10 \ g - 10 \ g+ oxygen = 18.2 \ g - 10 \ g[/tex]
[tex]oxygen= 18.2 \ g - 10 \ g[/tex]
[tex]oxygen= 8.2 \ g \\[/tex]
8.2 grams of oxygen reacted with 10 grams of iron to form 18.2 grams of ferric oxide.

. Consider the following half-reactions:
Ag+(aq) + e– → Ag(s) E = +0.80 V
Cu2+(aq) + 2 e– → Cu(s) E = +0.34 V
Pb2+(aq) + 2 e– → Pb(s) E = –0.13 V
Fe2+(aq) + 2 e– → Fe(s) E = –0.44 V
Al3+(aq) + 3 e– → Al(s) E = –1.66 V
Which of the above metals or metal ions will reduce Pb2+(aq)?
a. Ag+(aq) and Cu2+(aq)
b. Ag(s) and Cu(s)
c. Fe2+(aq) and Al3+(aq)
d. Fe(s) and Al(s)
e. Cu2+(aq) and Fe2+(aq)
d. Fe(s) and Al(s)
Further explanationIn the redox reaction, it is also known
Reducing agents are substances that experience oxidation
Oxidizing agents are substances that experience reduction
The metal activity series is expressed in voltaic series
Li-K-Ba-Ca-Na-Mg-Al-Mn- (H2O) -Zn-Cr-Fe-Cd-Co-Ni-Sn-Pb- (H) -Cu-Hg-Ag-Pt-Au
The more to the left, the metal is more reactive (easily release electrons) and the stronger reducing agent
The more to the right, the metal is less reactive (harder to release electrons) and the stronger oxidizing agent
So that the metal located on the left can push the metal on the right in the redox reaction
The electrodes which are easier to reduce than hydrogen (H), have E cells = +
The electrodes which are easier to oxidize than hydrogen have a sign E cell = -
So the above metals or metal ions will reduce Pb²⁺ (aq) will be located to the left of the Pb in the voltaic series or which have a more negative E cell value (greater reduction power)
The metal : d. Fe(s) and Al(s)

The chemical formula for magnesium oxide is MgO. A chemist determined by measurements that 0.030 moles of magnesium oxide participate in a chemical reaction. Calculate the mass of magnesium oxide that participates.
Answer:
1.209g of MgO participates
Explanation:
In this problem, we have 0.030 moles of MgO that participates in a particular reaction.
And we are asked to solve for the mass of MgO that participates, that means, we need to convert moles to grams.
To convert moles to grams we need to use molar mass of the compound:
1 atom of Mg has a molar mass of 24.3g/mol
1 atom of O has a molar mass of 16g/mol
That means molar mass of MgO is 24.3g/mol + 16g/mol = 40.3g/mol
And mass of 0.030 moles of MgO is:
0.030 moles MgO * (40.3g/mol) =
1.209g of MgO participatesA solution contains 9.25x103 M copper(II) nitrate and 1.40x102 M manganese(II) acetate. Solid potassium carbonate is added slowly to this mixture.
A. What is the formula of the substance that precipitates first?
B. What is the concentration of carbonate ion when this precipitation first begins?
Answer:
Explanation:
Concentration of Cu⁺² = 9.25 x 10³ M
Concentration of Mn⁺² = 1.4 x 10² M
solubility product of copper carbonate = 7.08 x 10⁻⁹
solubility product of manganese carbonate = 2.24 x 10⁻¹¹
solubility product of later is less so carbonate of manganese will come out first .
B )
[ Mn⁺² ] [ CO₃⁻² ] = 2.24 x 10⁻¹¹
1.4 x 10² [ CO₃⁻² ] = 2.24 x 10⁻¹¹
[ CO₃⁻² ] = 1.6 x 10⁻¹³ .
the concentration of carbonate ion when this precipitation first begins
= 1.6 x 10⁻¹³ M .

Reacting 10.0 mL of H2(g) with 10.0 mL of C2H4(g) produces 10.0 mL of C2H6 at 1.5 atm. If the reaction produces 3.1 kJ of heat and the decrease in volume requires the heat surroundings do 7.6 J of work on the gases, what is the change in internal energy of the gases?
Answer:
the change in internal energy of the gases is -3.0924 KJ
Explanation:
The computation of the change in internal energy of the gases is as follows;
Given that
Q = -3.1 KJ
= -3100 J
It is negative as the heat is lost from the mixture
And,
W = + 7.6 J
It is positive as the work is done in the mixture
Now we use the following equation
Delat E = Q + W
= -3100 J + 7.6 J
= -3092.4 J
= -3.0924 KJ
Hence, the change in internal energy of the gases is -3.0924 KJ

The volume of a gas with an initial pressure of 380 mmHg atm increases from 5.0 L to 8.0 L. What is the final pressure of the gas, in atm, assuming no change in moles or temperature?
A) 238 atm
B) 2.4 atm
C) 0.31 atm
D) 0.80 atm
E) 8.0 atm
Answer:
0.31 atmExplanation:
The new pressure can be found by using the formula for Boyle's law which is
[tex]P_1V_1 = P_2V_2[/tex]
Since we are finding the new pressure
[tex]P_2 = \frac{P_1V_1}{V_2} \\[/tex]
From the question
760 mmHg = 1 atm
380 mmHg = 0.5 atm
We have
[tex]P_2 = \frac{0.5 \times 5}{8} \\ = 0.3125[/tex]
We have the final answer as
0.31 atmHope this helps you

what does the changing the Aperture do when taking a photo? *
4.What effect can you get from using a slow shutter speed? *
5.What effect can you create by using a quick shutter speed
Answer:
Slower shutter speeds like 1/60 second and slower cause a blurring effect. If you want to take a picture using a slow shutter speed, it is best to mount the camera on a tripod and use image stabilization (such as SteadyShot® technology) to reduce the chance of any unwanted camera movement.
The first big effect of it is motion blur. If your shutter speed is long, moving subjects in your photo will appear blurred along the direction of motion. ... If you use an especially fast shutter speed, you can eliminate motion even from fast-moving objects, like birds in flight, or cars driving past.

In the reaction of aluminum with iron III oxide, if you start with 54.2 grams of aluminum, how many grams of iron III oxide are needed for the reaction to occur?
Answer:
[tex]m_{Fe_2O_3}=160.41gFe_2O_3[/tex]
Explanation:
Hello!
In this case, since the reaction between aluminum and iron (III) oxide is:
[tex]2Al+Fe_2O_3\rightarrow Al_2O_3+2Fe[/tex]
In such way, since there is 2:1 mole ratio between aluminum (atomic mass = 26.98 g/mol) and iron (III) oxide (molar mass = 159.70 g/mol), we'll be able to compute the mass of the required reactant as shown below:
[tex]m_{Fe_2O_3}=54.2gAl*\frac{1molAl}{26.98gAl}* \frac{1molFe_2O_3}{2molAl}*\frac{159.70gFe_2O_3}{1molFe_2O_3}\\\\m_{Fe_2O_3}=160.41gFe_2O_3[/tex]
