Use the following balanced equation to answer the question: 2 ZnS + 3 O2 →2 ZnO + 2 SO2 When 56.25 grams of ZnS react, how many moles of O2 are produced?

Answers

Answer:

[tex]n_{O_2}=0.866molSO_2\\\\n_{SO_2}=0.577molSO_2[/tex]

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given balanced chemical reaction by which ZnS reacts with O2, it is possible to calculate the moles of the latter that are consumed, not produced, according the 2:3 mole ratio between them and the following stoichiometric set up:

[tex]n_{O_2}=56.25gZnS*\frac{1molZnS}{97.47gZnS}*\frac{3molO_2}{2molZnS} \\\\n_{O_2}=0.866molO_2[/tex]

But also, we can compute the moles of SO2 that are produced via the the 2:2 mole ratio of ZnS to SO2:

[tex]n_{SO_2}=56.25gZnS*\frac{1molZnS}{97.47gZnS}*\frac{2molSO_2}{2molZnS} \\\\n_{SO_2}=0.577molSO_2[/tex]

When 16.35 moles of SI reacts with 11.26 moles of N2, how many moles of SI3N4 are formed

Answers

Answer:

5.450 mol Si₃N₄

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced equation

3 Si + 2 N₂ ⇒ Si₃N₄

Step 2: Establish the theoretical molar ratio between the reactants

The theoretical molar ratio of Si to N₂ is 3:2 = 1.5:1.

Step 3: Establish the experimental molar ratio between the reactants

The experimental molar ratio of Si to N₂ is 16.35:11.26 = 1.45:1. Comparing both molar ratios, we can see that Si is the limiting reactant.

Step 4: Calculate the moles of Si₃N₄ produced from 16.35 moles of Si

The molar ratio of Si to Si₃N₄ is 3:1.

16.35 mol Si × 1 mol Si₃N₄/3 mol Si = 5.450 mol Si₃N₄

One way to measure ionization energies is ultraviolet photoelectron spectroscopy (UPS, or just PES), a technique based on the photoelectric effect. In PES, monochromatic light is directed onto a sample, causing electrons to be emitted. The kinetic energy of the emitted electrons is measured. The difference between the energy of the photons and the kinetic energy of the electrons corresponds to the energy needed to remove the electrons (that is, the ionization energy). Suppose that a PES experiment is performed in which mercury vapor is irradiated with ultraviolet light of wavelength 58.4 nm.
(a) What is the energy of a photon of this light in eV?
(b) Write an equation that shows the process corresponding to the first ionization energy of Hg.
(c) The kinetic energy of the emitted electrons is measured to be 10.75 eV. What is the first ionization energy of Hg in kJ/mol?

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

From the given information:

The energy of photons can be determined by using the formula:

[tex]E = \dfrac{hc}{\lambda}[/tex]

where;

planck's constant (h) = [tex]6.63 \times 10^ {-34}[/tex]

speed oflight (c) = [tex]3.0 \times 10^8 \ m/s[/tex]

wavelength λ = 58.4 nm

[tex]E = \dfrac{6.63 \times 10^{-34} \ J.s \times 3.0 \times 10^8 \ m/s}{58.4 \times 10^{-9 } \ m}[/tex]

[tex]E =0.34 \times 10^{-17} \ J[/tex]

[tex]E = 3.40 \times 10^{-18 } \ J[/tex]

To convert the energy of photon to (eV), we have:

[tex]1 eV = 1.602 \times 10^{-19} \ J[/tex]

Hence

[tex]3.40 \times 10^{-18 } \ J = \dfrac{1 eV}{1.602 \times 10^{-19 } \ J }\times 3.40 \times 10^{-18 } \ J[/tex]

[tex]E = 2.12 \times 10 \ eV[/tex]

E = 21.2 eV

b)

The equation that illustrates the process relating to the first ionization is:

[tex]Hg_{(g)} \to Hg^+ _{(g)} + e^-[/tex]

c)

The 1st ionization energy (I.E) of Hg can be calculated as follows:

Recall that:

I.E  = Initial energy - Kinetic Energy

I₁ (eV) = 21.2 eV - 10.75 eV

I₁ (eV) = 10.45 eV

Since ;

[tex]1 eV = 1.602 \times 10^{-19} \ J[/tex]

[tex]10.45 \ eV = \dfrac{1.602 \times 10^{-19 } \ J }{ 1 \ eV}\times 10.45 \ eV[/tex]

Hence; the 1st ionization energy of Hg atom = [tex]1.67 \times 10^{-18} \ J[/tex]

[tex]1.67 \times 10^{-21} \ kJ[/tex]

Finally;

[tex]I_1 \ of \ the \ Hg (kJ/mol) = \dfrac{1.67 \times 10^{-21 \ kJ} \times 6.02 \times 10^{23} \ Hg \ atom }{1 \ Kg \ atom }[/tex]

[tex]\mathbf{= 1.005 \times 10^3 \ kJ/mol}[/tex]

Determine the number of moles of CH3Br in 47.5 grams of CH3Br?

Show Work please - NO LINKS

Answers

Answer:

0.500 moles

Explanation:

In order to convert grams of any given substance into moles, we need the substance's molar mass:

Molar Mass of CH₃Br = Molar Mass of C + (Molar Mass of H)*3 + Molar Mass of Br

We can find the molar masses of each element in the periodic table:

Molar Mass of CH₃Br = 94.94 g/mol

Now we can divide the given mass by the molar mass in order to calculate the number of moles:

47.5 g ÷ 94.94 g/mol = 0.500 moles

Explanation:

You are managing a city that needs to upgrade its disinfection basin at your 40 MGD surface water drinking water treatment plant. You would like to use chlorine (Cl2) as your disinfectant and you need to achieve a 4-log removal of E. coli. You are deciding between a traditional 750,000 gallon PFR contact basin (serpentine flow) and a newer system which contains three 150,000 gallon CSTRs in series, each receiving an equal injection of Cl2. Your final decision is going to be based on which system requires the least amount of Cl2 to achieve a 4-log removal of E. coli.

Required:
What is the amount of Cl2 required to operate each system (please answer in units of kg Cl/day)?

Answers

Solution :

According to Chick's law

[tex]$\frac{N_t}{N_0}=e^{-k'C^n t}$[/tex]

where, t = contact time

            c = concentration of disinfectant

            k' = lethality coefficient = 4.71

            n = dilution coefficient = 1

            4 log removal = % removal = 99.99

[tex]$\frac{N_t}{N_0}=\frac{\text{bacteria remaining}}{\text{bacteria initailly present}}$[/tex]

      = 1 - R

      = 1 - 0.9999

Now for plug flow reactor contact time,

[tex]$\tau =\frac{V}{Q} =\frac{75000}{40 \times 10^6}$[/tex]

          = 0.01875 days

          = 27 minutes

For CSTR, [tex]$\tau =\frac{V}{Q} =\frac{150000}{40 \times 10^6}$[/tex]

                             [tex]$=3.75 \times 10^{-3}$[/tex] days

                            = 5.4 minute

There are 3 reactors, hence total contact time = 3 x 5.4

                                                                            = 16.2 minute

Or [tex]$\frac{N_t}{N_0}=e^{-k'C^n t}$[/tex]

or [tex]$(1-0.9999)=e^{-4.71 \times C \times t}$[/tex]

∴ C x t = 1.955

For PFR, [tex]$t_1 = 27 $[/tex] min

∴ C [tex]$=\frac{1.955}{27}$[/tex] = 0.072 mg/L

For CSIR, [tex]$t_2=16.2$[/tex] min

[tex]$C=\frac{1.955}{16.2} = 0.1206$[/tex] mg/L

∴ Chlorine required for PFR in kg/day

[tex]$=\frac{0.072 \times 40 \times 10^6 \times 3.785}{10^6}$[/tex]      (1 gallon = 3.785 L)

= 18.25 kg/day

Therefore we should go for PFR system.

[tex]3(NH_4)_2S(aq)+2Al(NO_3)_3(aq)\rightarrow Al_2S_3(s)+6NH_4NO_3(aq)[/tex]

In such a way, we can calculate the concentration of aluminum and sulfide ions in the solution as shown below, and considering that the final total volume is 140.00 mL:

[tex][Al^3^+]=\frac{120.00mL*0.0082M}{140.00mL}=0.00703M[/tex]

[tex][S^2^-]=\frac{20.00mL*0.0090M}{140.00mL}=0.00129M[/tex]

In such a way, we can calculate the precipitation quotient by:

[tex]Q=[Al^3^+]^2[S^2^-]^3=(0.00703)^2(0.00129)^3=1.05x10^{-13}[/tex]

Which is smaller than Ksp and meaning that the precipitation does not occur.

(4) 0.50 mole of NH3

Please show work and explain!

Answers

Answer:

1.0 moles of N2

Explanation:

since

1.0 × avogadro's no# = same answer for SO2 and N2

avogadro's no#= 6.02× 10²³

The number of molecules in 1.0 mole of SO₂ is the same as the number of molecules in (3) 0.25 mole of NO₂.

Option (3) is correct.

Avogadro's number, approximately 6.022 x 10²³, represents the number of molecules or atoms in one mole of any substance. In this case, 1.0 mole of SO₂ contains the same number of molecules as any other substance with 1.0 mole, such as 1.0 mole of N₂ or 2.0 moles of Ne.

However, when comparing different moles of substances, we can use the concept of stoichiometry and molar ratios to determine the number of molecules. Given that 1 mole of SO₂ is equivalent to 1 mole of NO₂, 0.25 mole of NO₂ would also contain the same number of molecules as 1 mole of SO₂. Therefore, the number of molecules in 1.0 mole of SO₂ is the same as the number of molecules in 0.25 mole of NO₂.

The mass of 7 red apples in kilograms is to be considered as the 1.16 kilograms.

Calculation of the mass:

Since the mass of a dozen apples is 2 kg.

we know that

1 dozen is 12 units

So the mass of 12 apples = 2kg

So mass of 1 apple = 2/12 = 1/6  kg

Now the mass of 7 apple is to be  

= 7/6 kg

= 1.16 kg

hence, The mass of 7 red apples in kilograms is to be considered as the 1.16 kilograms.

Combined mass (m) = 120 Kg

Acceleration due to gravity (g) = 9.8 m/s²

Energy (E) =?

We can obtain the energy by using the following formula:

E = mgh

Where

E => is the energy.

g => is the acceleration due to gravity
