Bornite (Cu3FeS3) is a copper ore used in the production of copper. When heated, the following reaction occurs: 2Cu3FeS3(s)+7O2(g)6Cu(s)+2FeO(s)+6SO2 If 2.50 metric tons of bornite is reacted with excess O2 and the process has an 86.3% yield of copper, what mass of copper is produced?
4.44 Industrial production of hydrogen gas uses the reaction shown below. If 1.00 metric ton of propane reacting with excess water yields 270 kg of H2, what is the percentage yield? C3H8(g)+3H2O(l)3CO(g)+7H2(g)
A compound contains only carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, and oxygen. Combustion of 0.157 g of the compound produced 0.213 g CO2 and 0.0310 g H2O. In another experiment, it is found that 0.103 g of the compound produces 0.0230 g NH3. What is the empirical formula of the compound? Hint: Combustion involves reacting with excess O2. Assume that all the carbon ends up in CO2 and all the hydrogen ends up in H2O. Also assume that all the nitrogen ends up in the NH3 in the second experiment.
Methanol, CH3OH, can be prepared from carbon monoxide and hydrogen. CO(g) + 2 H2(g) CH3OH(l) What mass of hydrogen is required to produce 1.0 L of CH3OH (d = 0.791 g/mL) if this reaction has a 74% yield under certain conditions?
You 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.
The reaction of methane and water is one way to prepare hydrogen for use as a fuel: CH4(g) + H2O(g) CO(g) + 3 H2(g) If this reaction has a 37% yield under certain conditions, what mass of CH4 is required to produce 15 g of H2?
One method for determining the purity of a sample of titanium(IV) oxide, TiO2, an important industrial chemical, is to react the sample with bromine trifluoride. 3 TiO2(s) + 4 BrF3() 3 TiF4(s) + 2 Br2() + 3 O2 (g) This reaction is known to occur completely and quantitatively. That is. all of the oxygen in TiO2, is evolved as O2 Suppose 2.367 g of a TiO2-containng sample evolves 0.143 g O2. What is the mass percent of TiO2 in the sample?
