Question
There are two steps in the extraction of copper metal from chalcocite, a copper ore. In the first step, copper(I) sulfide and oxygen react to form copper(I) oxide and sulfur dioxide:
→+2Cu2Ss 3O2g + 2Cu2Os 2SO2g
In the second step, copper(I) oxide and carbon react to form copper and carbon monoxide:
→+Cu2Os Cs + 2Cus COg
Suppose the yield of the first step is
86.%
and the yield of the second step is
64.%
. Calculate the mass of copper(I) sulfide required to make
2.0kg
of copper.
Be sure your answer has a unit symbol, if needed, and is rounded to the correct number of significant digits.

- What is Keq? The equilibrium constant, Kea, expresses the relationship between the reactants and products for a reaction at equilibrium. There are two types of equilibrium reactions: Homogenous: The states of matter are all the same. Heterogeneous: The states of matter differ. 1. Classify the following reactions as homogeneous or heterogeneous (highlight one) a. 2 SO₂(g) + O₂(g) = 2 SO³(g) homogeneous or heterogeneous b. 2NaHCO3(s) Na₂CO3(s) + H₂O(g) + CO₂(g) homogeneous or heterogeneous c. 3 H₂(g) + N₂(g) = 2 NH3(g) homogeneous or heterogeneous homogeneous or heterogeneous d. H₂O(g) + C(s) = H₂(g) + CO(g) homogeneous or heterogeneous e. Cu(s) + 2 AgCl(aq) = CuCl,(aq) + 2 Ag(s) riting Equilibrium Constants - Homogeneous Reactions is the universal equilibrium constant for reactions. It is a ratio of the amount of product to e amount of reactant in the reaction mixture. To write an equilibrium constant expression: Put the products on top and the reactants on bottom. contrations in…arrow_forwardPropane can be turned into hydrogen by the two-step reforming process.

You want to make a standard solution of magnesium ion, and this is the only sample of a magnesium salt you have. To determine the amount of magnesium salt in the mixture, you heat 100.00 g to drive off the water of hydration and find that the anhydrous mixture has a mass of 55.25 g.
