Which of the following is not a combination reaction? 2 Na (s) + I2 (g) → 2 NaI (aq) CaO (s) + CO2 (g) → CaCO3 (s) CH4 (g) + 2 O2 (g) → CO2 (g) + 2 H2O (l) N2 (g) + 3 H2 (g) → 2 NH3 (aq) PbCO3 (s) → PbO (s) + CO2 (g)
An aqueous solution containing 9.41 g of lead(II) nitrate is added to an aqueous solution containing 5.57 g of potassium chloride. Enter the balanced chemical equation for this reaction. Be sure to include all physical states. balanced chemical equation: What is the limiting reactant? potassium chloride lead(II) nitrate The percent yield for the reaction is 88.7%. How many grams of the precipitate are formed? precipitate formed: Taking into account the percent yield, how many grams of the excess reactant (the reactant that is not limiting) remain? excess reactant remaining: 6.0 g g JQ
One way the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) tests for chloride contaminants in water is by titrating a sample of silver nitrate solution. Any chloride anions in solution will combine with the silver cations to produce bright white silver chloride precipitate. Suppose an EPA chemist tests a 200.mL sample of groundwater known to be contaminated with iron(III) chloride, which would react with silver nitrate solution like this: FeCl3 (aq) + 3AgNO3 (aq) →3AgCl (s) + (FeNO3)3 (aq) The chemist adds 48.0mM silver nitrate solution to the sample until silver chloride stops forming. She then washes, dries, and weighs the precipitate. She finds she has collected 7.5mg of silver chloride. Calculate the concentration of iron(III) chloride contaminant in the original groundwater sample. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.
One important factor in any chemical synthesis is the actual quantity of desired product obtained compared to the theoretical amount predicted on the basis of the stoichiometry of the reaction. The ratio of the mass of product obtained to the theoretical quantity, expressed as a percentage, is referred to as the "percent yield" or more simply the "yield". For example: if we react HCl with excess NaOH one of the products will be NaCl. If we assume that all of the Cl in HCl ends up as NaCl we know that each mole of HCl consumed should produce a mole of NaCl product. Suppose that in a particular reaction 11.7 grams of HCl (36.5 g/mol) react with excess NaOH and 17.5 grams of NaCl (58.5 g/mol) are isolated from the reaction mixture by crystallization. What is the percent yield of NaCl in the experiement?
The Apollo 13 mission astronauts are running out of oxygen and need to get rid of the excess carbon dioxide. You know that sodium hydroxide can remove carbon dioxide from the spacecraft cabin. The filter which they had been using is fully saturated and no longer works. The astronauts have a 5 kg container of sodium hydroxide on the ship. The reaction to neutralize the air, remove carbon dioxide with sodium hydroxide is shown below CO2(g) + 2NaOH(s) ⟶⟶ Na2CO3(aq) + H2O(l) The astronauts have 2 days left before they land on earth. You know that there are three astronauts, and each astronaut emits roughly 500. g of carbon dioxide each day. Is there enough sodium hydroxide in the cabin to cleanse the cabin air of the carbon dioxide, or are the astronauts doomed? Calculate how much sodium hydroxide is required to remove all the carbon dioxide from the three astronauts. Be sure to show all your work!
The rocket boosters of the space shuttle Discovery, launched on July 26, 2005, used a fuel mixture containing primarily solid ammonium perchlorate, NH4ClO4, and aluminum metal. The unbalanced chemical equation for the reaction is given below. (Hint: Balance the elements in the order Cl, H, O, Al, N.) Al(s) + NH4CIO4(s) Al₂O3(s) + AlCl3(s) + H₂O(l) + N₂(g) What is the mass (in kilograms) of NH4ClO4 consumed per kilogram of Al, assuming a percent yield of 87.20%? (Answer with two decimal places.)

The useful metal manganese can be extracted from the mineral rhodochrosite by a two-step process. In the first step, manganese(II) carbonate and oxygen react to form manganese(IV) oxide and carbon dioxide: 2MnCO3(s) + O₂(g) → In the second step, manganese (IV) oxide and aluminum react to form manganese and aluminum oxidide: 3 MnO₂ (s) + 4A1(s) 3 Mn (s) + 2 Al₂O3(s) Check 2 MnO₂ (s) + 2 CO₂ (g) Suppose the yield of the first step is 88.% and the yield of the second step is 70.%. Calculate the mass of manganese(II) carbonate required to make 1.0 kg of manganese.
