How many moles of ag can be produced if 350. g of cu are reacted with excess agno3 according to the equation cu(s) + 2agno3(aq) ® 2ag(s) + cu(no3)2(aq)?

The moles of Ag produced will be 11.02 moles.

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

For copper:

Given mass of copper = 350 g

Molar mass of copper = 63.5 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

For the given chemical equation:

Silver nitrate is present in excess, so it is considered as an excess reagent and copper is considered as a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of products.

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of copper produces 2 moles of silver.

So, 5.51 moles of copper will produce = of silver.

Thus, the moles of Ag produced will be 11.02 moles.

explanation:

the largest database of organic compounds lists about 10 million substances, which include compounds originating from living organisms and those synthesized by chemists. the number of potential organic compounds has been estimated at 1060—an astronomically high number. the existence of so many organic molecules is a consequence of the ability of carbon atoms to form up to four strong bonds to other carbon atoms, resulting in chains and rings of many different sizes, shapes, and complexities. the simplest organic compounds contain only the elements carbon and hydrogen, and are called hydrocarbons. even though they are composed of only two types of atoms, there is a wide variety of hydrocarbons because they may consist of varying lengths of chains, branched chains, and rings of carbon atoms, or combinations of these structures. in addition, hydrocarbons may differ in the types of carbon-carbon bonds present in their molecules. many hydrocarbons are found in plants, animals, and their fossils; other hydrocarbons have been prepared in the laboratory. we use hydrocarbons every day, mainly as fuels, such as natural gas, acetylene, propane, butane, and the principal components of gasoline, diesel fuel, and heating oil. the familiar plastics polyethylene, polypropylene, and polystyrene are also hydrocarbons. we can distinguish several types of hydrocarbons by differences in the bonding between carbon atoms. this leads to differences in geometries and in the hybridization of the carbon orbitals.
