4. Methanol, CH;OH, can be produced by the following reaction: CO + 2H → CH,OH( a) Hydrogen at STP flows into a reactor at a rate of 16.0 L/min. Carbon monoxide at STP flows into the reactor at a rate of 25.0 L/min. If 5.30 g of methanol is actually produced per minute, how much methanol may be produced theoretically? b) What is the proportion of actual to the theoretical yield, expressed as a percentage?

Suppose you are brewing beer, and you want to estimate how long it will take to complete the fermentation process. You place1.00 kgof sucrose(MM=342.3 g/mol)and yeast in your fermentation vessel and add water to a final volume of3.50 L. You decide that your reaction will be considered completed when the concentration of sugar decreases to0.0100M. How long will it take (in minutes) from the start of the reaction to the completion of the reaction?
Convert the volume of hydrogen gas produced into the amount of magnesium that has been consumed in the reaction. Assume 22.4 liters of gas = 1 mole of gas at this temperature.
The Haber-Bosch process is a very important industrial process. In the Haber-Bosch process, hydrogen gas reacts with nitrogen gas to produce ammonia according to the equation 3H2(g)+N2(g)→2NH3(g)3H2(g)+N2(g)→2NH3(g) The ammonia produced in the Haber-Bosch process has a wide range of uses, from fertilizer to pharmaceuticals. However, the production of ammonia is difficult, resulting in lower yields than those predicted from the chemical equation. 1.86 g H2 is allowed to react with 9.73 g N2, producing 2.16 g NH3. Part A: What is the theoretical yield in grams for this reaction under the given conditions? Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units. Part B: What is the percent yield for this reaction under the given conditions? Express your answer to three significant figures and include the appropriate units
The extraction of aluminum metal from the aluminum hydroxide found in bauxite by the Hall-Héroult process is one of the most remarkable success stories of 19th century chemistry, turning aluminum from a rare and precious metal into the cheap commodity it is today. In the first step, aluminum hydroxide reacts to form alumina Al2O3 and water: 2AlOH3s + Al2O3s -> 3H2Og In the second step, alumina Al2O3 and carbon react to form aluminum and carbon dioxide: 2Al2O3s + 3Cs + 4Als -> 3CO2g Suppose the yield of the first step is 83.% and the yield of the second step is 78.% . Calculate the mass of aluminum hydroxide required to make 7.0kg of aluminum. Be sure your answer has a unit symbol, if needed, and is rounded to the correct number of significant digits.

1. In Ontario, some electricity comes from coal-burning generators. Coal is a natural form of carbon that has a large amount of sulphur mixed in with it. Here are the balanced equations for the combustion of coal and sulphur: carbon + oxygen → carbon dioxide C + O 2 → CO 2 sulphur + oxygen → sulphur dioxide S + O 2→ SO 2 Answer the following questions based on the burning of coal to produce energy: a) In what way is the combustion of sulphur harmful to the environment? b) Write the word equation and balanced chemical equation for the reaction that produces this harmful environmental effect. My Answers I am not sure how if part b) is right or how to balance it. This is the complete question. a) The combustion of sulphur produces sulphur dioxide (SO2). b) Word Equation: sulphur dioxide + water = sulphuric acid Balanced Chemical Equation: SO 2+ H 2O =H 2SO 3 =H 2SO4

In experiment #7, you observed the formation of carbon dioxide by reacting baking soda with vinegar. Why was it not possible to relight the candle? A. Carbon dioxide is heavier than air so it stays in the beaker preventing the candle from relighting. B. Carbon dioxide is lighter than air so it escaped from the beaker and the candle should have relit. C. Carbon dioxide is heavier than air so it stays in the beaker and the candle should have relit. D. Carbon dioxide is lighter than air so it escaped from the beaker preventing the candle from relighting.
A gas is formed in the reaction shown below. The gas laws can help determine the volume of gas produced. Zn(s) + 2 HCl(aq) → ZnCl₂ + H₂(g) Assume that 131.0 grams of Zn was used in this reaction. To determine the number of moles of hydrogen gas formed, you need to know the number of moles of Zn reactant was used. How many moles of Zn were used?
