Answers:

a. Moles of oxygen formed: 0.670 mol

b. Moles of water formed: 1.34 mol

c. Mass of water formed: 24.1 g

d. Mass of oxygen formed: 21.4 g

Explanation:

Dihdyrogen dioxide is the chemical name for a compound made of two hydrogen atoms and two oxide atoms, i.e. H₂O₂, which is also known as hydrogen peroxide or oxygenated water.

The decomposition reaction of dihydrogen dioxide into water and oxygen gas is represented by the balanced chemical equation:

$2H_2O_2(l)\rightarrow 2H_2O(l)+O_2(g)$

The mole ratios derived from that balanced chemical equation are:

2 mol H₂O₂ : 2 mol H₂O : 1 mol O₂

a. Moles of oxygen formed

Set the proportion using the theoretical mole ratio of H₂O₂ to O₂ and the amount of moles of dyhydrogen dioxide that react:

$2\text{ mol }H_2O_2/1\text{ mol }O_2=1.34\text{ mol }H_2O_2/x$

When you solve for x, you get:

x = 1.34 mol H₂O₂ × 1 mol O₂ / 2 mol H₂O₂ = 0.670 mol O₂

b. Moles of water formed

Set the proportion using the theoretical mole ratio of H₂O₂ to H₂O and the amount of moles of dyhydrogen dioxide that react:

$2\text{ mol }H_2O_2/2\text{ mol }H_2O=1.34\text{ mol }H_2O_2/x$

When you solve for x, you get:

x = 1.34 mol H₂O₂ × 2 mol H₂O / 2 mol H₂O₂ = 1.34 mol H₂O

c. Mass of water formed

Using the number of moles of water calculated in the part b., you calculate the mass of water formed, in grams, using the molar mass of water:

Molar mass of water = 18.015 g/molNumber of moles = mass in grams / molar mass

⇒ mass in grams = number of moles × molar mass

⇒ mass in grams = 1.34 mol × 18.015 g/mol = 24.1 g

d. Mass of oxygen formed

Using the number of moles of oxygen determined in the part a., you calculate the mass in grams using the molar mass of O₂.

Molar mass of O₂ = 32.00 g/molmass = molar mass × number of moles mass = 32.00 g/mol × 0.670 mol = 21.4 g.

Which explanation is true about what happens to a ray of light when it strikes a mirror? a. a light ray is transmitted toward a mirror at a certain angle. the light ray is then reflected by the mirror at an equal angle but in the opposite direction of the transmitted ray. b. an incident ray strikes a mirror at an angle with a line perpendicular to the mirror. the light ray is then reflected at an angle equal to the angle of incidence but on the opposite side of the perpendicular line. c. a reflecting ray strikes a mirror at an angle with a line perpendicular to the mirror. the light ray is then refracted at an angle equal to the angle of the reflecting ray and on the same side of the perpendicular line. d. an incident ray strikes a mirror at an angle with a line parallel to the mirror. the light ray is then transmitted at an angle equal to the angle of incidence but on the opposite side of the parallel line. you so much! : -d take the time to try and answer correctly.
