Answer:
1. 31.68 moles of water, HβO
2. 14.81 moles of Cr
Explanation:
1. Determination of the number of mole of water, HβO.
The balanced equation for the reaction is given below:
CββHββOββ β> 12C + 11HβO
From the balanced equation above,
1 mole of CββHββOββ produced 12 moles of C and 11 moles of HβO.
Next, we shall determine the number of mole CββHββOββ needed to produce 34.55 moles of C. This can be obtained as follow:
From the balanced equation above,
1 mole of CββHββOββ produced 12 moles of C.
Therefore, Xmol of CββHββOββ will produce 34.55 moles of C i.e
Xmol of CββHββOββ = 34.55 / 12
Xmol of CββHββOββ = 2.88 moles
Thus, 2.88 moles of CββHββOββ is needed.
Finally, we shall determine the number of mole of water, HβO produced from the reaction. This can be obtained as follow:
From the balanced equation above,
1 mole of CββHββOββ produced 11 moles of HβO.
Therefore, 2.88 moles of CββHββOββ will produce = 2.88 Γ 11 = 31.68 moles of HβO.
Thus, 31.68 moles of water, HβO were obtained from the reaction.
2. Determination of the number of mole of Cr needed.
The balanced equation for the reaction is given below:
Cr + HβSOβ β> CrSOβ + Hβ
From the balanced equation above,
1 mole of Cr reacted to produce 1 mole of CrSOβ.
Finally, we shall determine the number of mole of Cr needed to produce 14.81 moles of CrSOβ. This can be obtained as follow:
From the balanced equation above,
1 mole of Cr reacted to produce 1 mole of CrSOβ.
Therefore, 14.81 moles of Cr will also react to produce 14.81 moles of CrSOβ.
Thus, 14.81 moles of Cr is needed for the reaction.
