PLEAS HELP :') ''If 5.6 mole of calcium metal is reacted, how many grams of calcium phosphide will form?'

340 grams Ca₃P₂ (2 sig. figs.)

Explanation:

   3Ca     +     2P     =>    Ca₃P₂

5.6 mole + excess =>   ? grams

Convert the 'known' to a coefficient of 1 by dividing all coefficients by 3.

=>  Ca   +   2/3P   =>    1/3Ca₃P₂

From the above, 1 mole of Ca => 1/3 mole Ca₃P₂  

∴ 5.6 mole Ca in an excess of P => 1/3(5.6 mole) Ca₃P₂

=> 1.8666 mol Ca₃P₂ (calculator answer) ≅ 1.9 mol Ca₃P₂

=> 1.9 mole x 182 g Ca₃P₂/mol Ca₃P₂ = 339.73333 grams Ca₃P₂

≅ 340 grams Ca₃P₂ (2 sig. figs.)

most historians agree that gabriel mouton, the vicar of st. paul’s church in lyons, france, is the “founding father” of the metric system. he proposed a decimal system of measurement in 1670. mouton based it on the length of one minute of arc of a great circle of the earth (now called a nautical mile, 1852 meters). he also proposed the swing-length of a pendulum with a frequency of one beat per second as the unit of length (about 25 cm). a pendulum beating with this length would have been fairly easy to produce, thus facilitating the widespread distribution of uniform standards. over the years, his work was revised, improved, and extended by a number of french scientists.

the political sponsor of weights and measures reform in the french revolutionary national assembly was the bishop of autun, better known as talleyrand. under his auspices, the french academy appointed several committees to carry out the work of developing a usable system of weights and measures for france. one of the committees recommended a decimalized measurement system based upon a length equal to one ten-millionth of the length of a quadrant of the earth’s meridian (i.e., one ten-millionth of the distance between the equator and the north pole).
