Concept Introduction:
Number of moles is related to mass and molar mass as follows:
Here, m is mass and M is molar mass.
According to Avogadro’s law, 1 mole of a substance contains
Thus, number of molecules can be calculated from number of moles using the following conversion factor:

EBK INTRODUCTORY CHEMISTRY
- Many cereals are made with high moisture content so that the cereal can be formed into various shapes before it is dried. A cereal product containing 58% H2O by mass is produced at the rate of 1000. kg/h. What mass of water must be evaporated per hour if the final product contains only 20.% water?arrow_forwardMany cereals are made with high moisture content so that the cereal can be formed into various shapes before it is dried. A cereal product containing 58% H2O by mass is produced at the rate of 1000. kg/h. What mass of water must be evaporated per hour if the final product contains only 20.% water?arrow_forwardYou take 1.00 g of an aspirin tablet (a compound consisting solely of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen), burn it in air, and collect 2.20 g CO2 and 0.400 g H2O. You know that the molar mass of aspirin is between 170 and 190 g/mol. Reacting 1 mole of salicylic acid with I mole of acetic anhydride (C4H6O3) gives you 1 mole of aspirin and 1 mole of acetic acid (C2H4O2). Use this information to determine the molecular formula of salicylic acid.arrow_forward
- The space shuttle environmental control system handles excess CO2 (which the astronauts breathe out; it is 4.0% by mass of exhaled air) by reacting it with lithium hydroxide, LiOH, pellets to form lithium carbonate, Li2CO3, and water. If there are seven astronauts on board the shuttle, and each exhales 20. L of air pee minute, how long could clean air be generated if there were 25,000 g of LiOH pellets available for each shuttle mission? Assume the density of air is 0.0010 g/mL.arrow_forwardWhen an electric current is passed through an aqueous solution of NaCI, the valuable industrial chemicals H2(g), Cl2(g), and NaOH are produced. 2 NaCI(aq) + 2 H2O(l) H2(g) + Cl2(g) + 2 NaOH(aq) What mass of NaOH can be formed from 15.0 L of 0.35 M NaCI? What mass of chlorine is obtained?arrow_forwardNitrogen gas (N2) and hydrogen gas (H2) react to form ammonia gas (NH3). Consider the mixture of N2 () and H2 () in a closed container as illustrated below: Assuming the reaction goes to completion, draw a representation of the product mixture.

The box on the left represents the reactants at the instant of mixing, and the box on the right shows what is left once the reaction has gone to completion. Was there a limiting reactant in this reaction? If so, what was it? Write a balanced chemical equation for this reaction. As usual, your equation should use the smallest possible whole number coefficients for all substances.arrow_forwardNitric acid is produced commercially by the Ostwald process, represented by the following equations: 4NH3(g)+5O24NO(g)+6H2O(g)2NO(g)+O2(g)2NO2(g)3NO2(g)+H2O(l)2HNO3(aq)+NO(g) What mass of NH3 must be used to produce 1.0 106 kg HNO3 by the Ostwald process? Assume 100% yield in each reaction, and assume that the NO produced in the third step is not recycled.arrow_forwardA gas contains a mixture of NH3(g) and N2H4(g), both of which react with O2(g) to form NO2(g) and H2O(g). The gaseous mixture (with an initial mass of 61.00 g) is reacted with 10.00 moles O2, and after the reaction is complete, 4.062 moles of O2 remains.
