What
is the theoretical yield in grams of CuS for the following reaction given
that you start with 15.5 g of Na2S and 12.1 gCuSO4? Reaction: Na2S + CuSO4
→ Na2SO4 + CuS
Molar Mass of ( Na2S ) = 78.06 g/mol
Given
15.5 g counts to 15.5 g / 78.06 = 0.198 moles of Na2S
Molar
Mass of ( CuSO4) = 159.64 g / mol
12.1
g / 159.64 = 0.0758 moles CuSO4
the
reaction is
Na2S

What
is the limiting reactant for the following reaction given we have 3.4 moles
of Ca(NO3)2 and 2.4 moles of Li3PO4? Reaction: 3Ca(NO3)2 + 2Li3PO4 → 6LiNO3
+ Ca3(PO4)2
According to the balanced equation
3Ca(NO3)2 + 2Li3PO4 ----> 6LiNO3 + Ca3(PO4)2
3 mol Ca(NO3)2 reacts with 2 mol Li3PO4
Assuming all the Ca(NO3)2 is used up:
3.4 mol Ca(NO3)2 x (2 mol Li3PO4 / 3 mol Ca(NO3)2 ) = 2.27 mol
Li3PO4
Since there are more moles of Li3PO4 than the 2.27 moles required to
use up all the Ca(NO3)2, Li3PO4 is present in excess. This implies Ca(NO3)2
is the limiting reagent.

copper.
When
heated, the following (unbalanced) reaction occurs:
Cu3FeS3(s)
+ O2(g) → Cu(s)+ FeO(s) + SO2(g)
If 2.50 kg of bornite is reacted with excess O2 and the
process has an 82.5% yield of copper, how much copper is produced (in kg)?
Balanced equation is 2 Cu3FeS3(s) + 7
O2(g)------> 6 Cu(s) + 2 FeO(s) + 6 SO2(g)
2 moles Boronite produces 6 moles
Cu
Converting given amount of boronite into moles
Molar mass of boronite = 342.71 g/ mole
therefore 2500g counts to 7.31 mole
So amount of copper produced = 7.31 * 3 = 21.93
moles
Molar mass of copper = 63.55 g/mole
Therefore mass of copper = 21.93 * 63.55 = 1.39
kg
Given % yield of copper is 82.5%
So final amount of copper produced = 1.146 kg

Vitamin
C is known chemically by the name ascorbic acid. Determine the empirical
formula of ascorbic acid if it is composed of 40.92% carbon, 4.58%
hydrogen, and 54.50% oxygen.
H = 1 g/mol
C = 12 g/mol
O = 16 g/mol
Then you divide A.M. / %
For the carbon:
40.92 / 12 ~ 3.4
For the hydrogen:
4.58 / 1 = 4.58
For the oxygen:
54.5 / 16 ~ 3.4
Then you divide the smallest result to each element:
C = 3.4 / 3.4 = 1
H = 4.6 / 3.4 = 1.35
O = 3.4 / 3.4 = 1
But the number must be complete, so try multiplying by another
number that will turn it into a complete number:
C = 1 x 3 = 3
H = 1.35 x 3 = 4,05 ~ 4
O = 1 x 3 = 3

Hydrogen,
a possible future fuel, can also be obtained from other compounds such as
ethanol. Ethanol can be made from the fermentation of crops such as corn.
How much hydrogen in grams can be obtained from 1.0 kg of ethanol (C2H5OH)?
Ethanol has a
molar mass of 46.07 g/mol
So that mass is made of the carbon (12g per mole) and the oxygen (16
g/mol) and the hydrogen (1 g /mol)
1 kg = 1000 g
1000 g / 46.07 g/mol = 21.7 moles of ethanol in 1 kg
Hydrogen has a mass of 1 g/mol, but hydrogen gas has a mass of
2g/mol
There are six hydrogens in each molecule of ethanol, so each
molecule will make 3 molecules of H2 gas or 3 moles of hydrogen per mole of
ethanol.
21.7 moles * 3g per mole H2 = 65.12 grams of hydrogen gas H2

3 mol Ca(NO3)2 reacts with 2 mol Li3PO4
Assuming all the Ca(NO3)2 is used up:
3.4 mol Ca(NO3)2 x (2 mol Li3PO4 / 3 mol Ca(NO3)2 ) = 2.27 mol
Li3PO4
Since there are more moles of Li3PO4 than the 2.27 moles required to
use up all the Ca(NO3)2,
Li3PO4 is present in excess. This means the Ca(NO3)2 is the limiting
reagent.

Molar Mass
of ( Na2S ) = 78.06 g/mol
15.5 g / 78.06 = 0.198 mole Na2S
MM of ( CuSO4) = 159.64 g / mol
12.1 g / 159.64 = 0.0758 mole CuSO4
the reaction is
Na2S + CuSO4 ---> Na2SO4 + CuS
the ratio between Na2S and CuSO4 is 1 : 1 so CuSO4 is the limiting reactant.
We would get 0.0758 mole CuS ( MM= 95.54 g/mol)

Examples of Physical Properties
A physical property is any property of matter or energy that can be measured.
It is an attribute of matter that can be observed or perceived.
Common Physical Properties
Absorption
of electromagnetic - The way a photon’s energy is taken up by matter
Absorption
(physical) - Absorption between two forms of matter
Color -
Hue of an object as perceived by humans
Concentration
- Amount of one substance in a mixture
Chemical properties can only be established by changing a substance’s chemical
identity, and are different from physical properties, which can be observed
by viewing or touching a sample.
The
internal qualities of a substance must be altered to determine its chemical
properties. For example:
Flammability
- How easily something will burn or ignite, is a chemical property because
you can’t tell just by looking at something how easily it will burn. Fire
testing is done to determine how difficult or easy it will be to get a
certain material to burn.
Information
about flammability is used in building codes, fire codes, insurance
requirements, and storing, handling, and transporting highly flammable
materials.
Heat of
Combustion - This chemical property is the amount of energy that is released
as heat when a substance is burned with oxygen.

Determine
the correct empirical formula of a compound containing 26.68% carbon, 2.24%
hydrogen, and 71.08% oxygen.
Carbon =
12g/mol
Hydrogen = 1.001g/mol
Oxygen = 16g/mol
Moles of carbon = 26.68g*1mol/12g which gives 2.22 moles
Hydrogen = 2.24g*1mol/1.001 g which gives about 2.24 moles
Oxygen = 71.08*1mol/16g which gives 4.44 moles
Then we divide all the values by the fewest number of moles you got to
find out how much of each is in the empirical formula which is carbon so
divide everything by 2.22.
2.22/2.22 = 1 C
2.24/2.22 = ~1 H
4.44/2.22 = 2 O
So the empirical formula for oxalic acid is CHO2.

What is
the limiting reactant for the following reaction given we have 3.4 moles of
Ca(NO3)2 and 2.4 moles of Li3PO4? Reaction: 3Ca(NO3)2 + 2Li3PO4 → 6LiNO3 +
Ca3(PO4)2
3 mol Ca(NO3)2
reacts with 2 mol Li3PO4
Assume all the Ca(NO3)2 is used up:
3.4 mol Ca(NO3)2 x (2 mol Li3PO4 / 3 mol Ca(NO3)2 ) = 2.27 mol
Li3PO4
Since there are more moles of Li3PO4 than the 2.27 moles required to
use up all the Ca(NO3)2, Li3PO4 is present in excess. This means the Ca(NO3)2
is the limiting reagent.

Bornite
(Cu3FeS3) is a copper ore used in the production of
copper.
When
heated, the following (unbalanced) reaction occurs:
Cu3FeS3(s)
+ O2(g) → Cu(s)+ FeO(s) + SO2(g)
If 2.50 kg of bornite is reacted with excess O2 and the
process has an 82.5% yield of copper, how much copper is produced (in kg)?
From
the balanced equation
2 moles
of bornite produces 6 moles of copper
Converting
given amount of bornite into moles
MM of
bornite = 342.71 g/ mol
2500 g
counts to 7.31 mles
So
amount of copper produced = 7.31 * 3 = 21.93 moles
MM of
copper = 63.95 g/mol
Mass of
copper = 21.93 * 63.95 = 1.39 kg
Given %
yield = 82.5 %
So amount

and 45.11g N.
a)Find the molecular formula of this compound if the Formula mass is 62.12
g/mole.
b)Determine how many H atoms would be in a 3.50g sample of this compound.
Moles of C in the
compound = 38.67 / 12 = 3.223 moles
moles of H = 16.22 / 1 = 16.22 moles
moles of N = 45.11 /14 = 3.223
molar ratios in the compound C:H:N = 3.223 :16.22: 3.223
divide by the smallest number 3.223 and we get 1:5:1
empirical formula is CH5N
empirical mass is ( 12+5+14) = 31 g
molar mass is 62.12 g so there are 2 empirical units in a mole of
compound
molecular formula is C2H10N2
moles of compound in 3.50 g = 3.50 / 62.12 = 0.056342563 moles
there are 10 moles of H in a mole of the compound so we have
0.56342563 moles of H in the mass
so number of atoms = 6.02 *10 ^23 atoms / mol * 0.56342563 mole
= 3.392 *10^23 atoms of H in the sample mass

`My husband and I always argue about the temperature in our house. I like
it at 294.0 K, while he likes to set the thermostat to 300.0 degrees K. As we
take turns constantly changing the setting, our poor heating and cooling
system tries to keep up. I argue that it causes us to waste money. My living
room contains 50 kg of air. In the summer time, I pay about $0.14 per kWh of
energy used. How much does it cost me every time we heat the air in the
living room from 294.00 K to 300 K? (HINT:
How many kWh does it take?) The
heat capacity of our air is 1.01 J/(gC).
All work must be shown, labeled,
and explained in detail to receive credit.
Note that where applicable, superscripts (X2) can be written as
X^2 and subscripts (X2) can be written as X_2 if it saves you
time.
First lets convert the given temperatures into C from K, so as 0C = 273K
294K = 294-273 = 21C
300K = 300-273 = 27C
and as we need to use the mass in grams, 50kg =
50000 g
q=mc(dt),
q= amount of heat energy gained or lost by the
substance
m= mass of sample
C= heat capacity
so by plugging the given values, we get,
q = 50000(1.01)*(27-21)
q = 303000 J = 0.0841666667 kWh.
As it is given that it costs $0.14 per kWh, we
will be charged 0.14*0.084167 = $ 0.01178
so it costs $0.01178 every time to heat the
room from 294K to 300 K

Molar masses of
Carbon : 12.011 g/mol
Hydrogen: 1.008 g/mo
Nitrogen: 14.007 g/mol
When we divide the given percentages by respective molar masses we get,
Carbon: 74.1/12.011 = 6.1693 mol
Hydrogen: 8.6/1.008 = 8.5317 mol
Nitrogen: 17.3/14.007 = 1.2351 mol
Now dividing each of these moles with the least one we get,
Carbon: 6.1693/1.2351 = 5
Hydrogen : 8.5317/1.2351 = 7
Nitrogen: 1.2351/1.2351 = 1

You go to the drug store and buy a 480 mL bottle of Milk
of Magnesia, which has magnesium hydroxide as the active ingredient. If the
density of magnesium hydroxide is 2.34 g/mL, determine the number of
molecules in the bottle of Milk of Magnesia.
In order to find the number of molecules, we will have to find the total
number of moles available and then multiply it with the Avogadro's number.
So to determine, number of moles, we will have to use the below formula and
assume that it is in STP conditions.
To find volume, we need to make use of the mass and density given here.
As Density = mass / Volume, Volume = mass/density
so V = (480/2.34) = 205.1282 mL = 0.2051282 L
n = PV/RT =
(1 atm)(0.2051282 L)/(0.08206 L atm mol-1 K-1 ×
273.15 K) = 0.00915151 moles
To find the
number of moles we need to multiply this with 6.02×1023 molecules/mol
0.00915151 mol
× 6.02×1023 molecules/mol = 5.51 × 1021 molecules

1) Molar
masses of Carbon : 12.011 g/mol
Hydrogen: 1.008 g/mol
Nitrogen: 14.007 g/mol
Oxygen : 15.999 g/mol
When we divide the given percentages by
respective molar masses we get,
Carbon: 59/12.011 = 4.9122 mol
Hydrogen: 26.2/1.008 = 25.9921 mol
Nitrogen: 7.7/14.007 = 0.5497 mol
Oxygen: 26.2/15.999 = 1.6376 mol
Now dividing each of these moles with the
least one we get,
Carbon: 4.9122/0.5497 = 9
Hydrogen : 25.9921/0.5497 = 48
Nitrogen: 0.5497/0.5497 = 1
Oxygen: 1.6376/0.5497 = 3
So the Empirical formula would be : C9H48NO3 with
a empirical mass of 218.
Its given that the molar mass is = 366.40
so after rounding, we can say that there are 2 units
so the Molecular formula : C18H96N2O6

As we can see from the formula we have a
total of 2 moles of nitrogen, so total number of N atoms would be

1. When my tank is full, what is the mass of the fuel in pounds?
2. Fuels are made from long chain hydrocarbon alkanes, ranging from
8-21 carbon atoms. The average diesel fuel formula is C12H23 (12 and 23 are subscripts).
Looking at my gas gauge, I have about 1/4 of a tank of fuel remaining

that superscripts (X2) can be written as X^2 and subscripts (X2)

1. As it is given that the car tank can hold 18.5 gallons all we have to
do is to convert the gallons to pounds.
as 1 gallon = 3.785 L
18.5 gallons = 3.785*18.5 L = 70.0225 L
then L is to be converted to Kg as 1L = 1Kg, we get a total of 70.0225 Kg
Finally we need to convert this Kg to Pounds as 1 Kg = 2.2 Pounds
we get 70.0225 Kg = 2.2*70.0225 = 154.0495 Pounds.
2.
Its given that only 1/4th of fuel is remaining, which is 4.625 gal =
38.512375 pounds. = 17505.625 g
Molar mass = 167 g
so number of moles of diesel fuel in the tank = 17505.625/167 = 104.824

An unknown acid has a molar mass of 60.05 g/mol. Given
the following percent composition, what is the molecular formula? 40%C,
6.7% H, 53.3% O
H = 1 g/mol
C = 12 g/mol
O = 16 g/mol
Then we divide A.M. / %
For the carbon:
40 / 12 ~ 3.33
For the hydrogen:
6.7 / 1 = 6.7
For the oxygen:
53.3 / 16 ~ 3.33
Then we divide the smallest result to each element:
C = 3.33 / 3.33 = 1
H = 6.7 / 3.33 = 2
O = 3.33 / 3.33 = 1
The empirical formula is:
CH2O<o:p></o:p>

Sodium peroxide (Na2O2) reacts with water to form sodium
hydroxide and oxygen gas. Write a balanced equation for the reaction and
determine how much oxygen in grams is formed by the complete reaction of
35.23 g Na2O2.
When Sodium Peroxide reacts with water to form sodium
hydroxide and oxygen gas, the balanced equation is given as follows.
2Na2O2 + 2 H2O
---> 4 NaOH + O2
We need to first convert grams of
sodium peroxide to moles of sodium peroxide using the molar mass:
35.23g Na2O2 x
(1mole Na2O2 / 77.98g Na2O2)=
0.4518 moles Na2O2
We know that for every 2 moles of Na2O2 in
the reaction, there is one mole of O2.
0.4518 moles Na2O2 x
(1 mole O2 / 2 moles Na2O2) = 0.2259
moles O2
Convert to grams using molar mass:
0.2152 moles O2 x (32g O2 / 1
mole O2) = 7.2288
g O2

A chromium oxide compound contains 52.0 grams of
chromium and 24.0 grams of oxygen. What is the most likely empirical
formula of this compound?
The atomic mass of O is 16, and the atomic mass of Cr is
52.
the most safe way to solve this
problem, is to find the moles of Cr atoms and O atoms:
moles of Cr atoms= mass of
Cr/atomic mass of Cr=52/52=1mol
moles of O atoms= mass of O
atoms/atomic mass of O = 24/16=1.5.
So, for every 1 atom of Cr you
should have 1.5 atoms of O.
To get rid of decimals, for every 2 atoms of Cr we need 3 atoms of O.
This means that the formula should be: Cr2O3

An iron chloride compound contains 18.62 grams of iron
and 17.75 grams of chlorine. What is the most likely empirical formula for
this compound?
Fe
18.62/55.845 = 0.333422
Cl: 17.75/35.45 = 0.5007
divide by smallest:
0.333422/0.333422 = 1; 0.5007/0.333422 = 1. 5017
Multiply by 2 to obtain whole numbers: 2:3
i.e. Empirical Formula is Fe2Cl3
But
there is no such Iron chloride exists, so I would go with FeCl3.

A 7.96 gram sample of silver reacts with oxygen to form
8.55 gram of the metal oxide. What is the formula of the oxide?
mass
of oxide - mass of silver = mass of oxygen= 8.55g AgO - 7.96g Ag = 0.59g O
7.96g Ag x (1 mol Ag/107.9g Ag) = 0.074 mol Ag
0.59 O x (1 mol O/16.0g O = 0.04 mol O
Ag 0.074 O 0.04 (divide both by 0.04)
Ag 1.85 O = Ag2O

Bornite (Cu3FeS3) is a copper ore
used in the production of copper.
When heated, the following (unbalanced) reaction occurs:
Cu3FeS3(s) + O2(g)
→ Cu(s)+ FeO(s) + SO2(g)
If 2.50 kg of bornite is reacted with excess O2 and the process has an 82.5% yield
of copper, how much copper is produced (in kg)?
From
balanced equation
2
moles of bornite produces 6 moles of copper
Converting
given amount of bornite into moles
MM of
bornite = 342.71g/mol
2500 g
counts to 7.31 mole
So amount
of copper produced = 7.31 * 3 = 21.93 moles
MM of
copper = 63.55 g/mol
Mass of
copper = 21.93*63.55 = 1.39 kg
Given %
yield of copper is 82.5%
Final
amount of copper produced = 1.146 kg
Feedback: The problem requires many steps
from chapters 6-8.
