(3b-301-4.12) Carborundum is silicon carbide, SiC, a very hard material used as an abrasive on sandpaperand in other applications. It is prepared by the reaction of pure sand, SiO2, with carbon at hightemperature. Carbon monoxide, CO, is the other product of this reaction. The balanced equation isshown below. How many grams of the carbon monoxide side product are produced from 4.12 moles ofSiO2? Show all work and round your answer to three significant figures.Sio2 + 30SiC + 2C0

Given information, SiO2 + 3C --> SiC + 2CO 4.12 moles of SiO2

The "barking dog" reaction is an exciting combustion reaction that generates a bright blue flame because sulfur is produced during the reaction (sulfur burns blue!). At the end of the reaction, a "woosh" sound is made which sounds like a dogs bark (hence the name of the reaction). Assume the reaction is carried out in a closed container. CS₂2 +4N₂O CO₂ + SO₂ + S + 4N₂ Note: the equation is balanced How many moles of CO₂ can you generate if you were to carry out the reaction with 8.28 g CS₂?
Phosgene, a substance used in poisonous gas warfare during World War I, is so named because it was first prepared by theaction of sunlight on a mixture of carbon monoxide and chlorine gases. Its name comes from the Greek words phos (light) andgenes (born of). Phosgene has the following elemental composition: 12.14% C, 16.17% O, and 71.69% Cl by mass. Its molarmass is 98.9 g>mol. (a) Determine the molecular formula of this compound. (b) Draw three Lewis structures for the moleculethat satisfy the octet rule for each atom. (The Cl and O atoms bond to C.) (c) Using formal charges, determine which Lewisstructure is the dominant one. (d) Using average bond enthalpies, estimate ΔH for the formation of gaseous phosgene fromCO(g) and Cl21g2.
The metal vanadium can be extracted from its oxide by heat- ing it in the presence of calcium: V₂05(s) + 5 Ca(1)→2 V(s) + 5 CaO(s). When 150.0 kg of V₂O5 was heated with calcium, 36.7 kg of vanadium was produced. What is the percentage yield of vanadium?
One of the first steps in a method to process “yellowcake” uranium ore for nuclear fuel is to dissolve the material in nitric acid.: U3O8(s) + 8HNO3(aq) + 14H2O(l) → 3[UO2(NO3)2·6H2O](aq) + 2NO2(g) Each steel drum of yellowcake contains about 4.0 x 102 kg of ore. The mass percentage of U3O8 in the ore is 80.%. A truck can haul 43 drums of ore to the uranium refinery.
