If your door is 678 centimeters (cm) long, how many feet is that?

How many inches is 27.4 feet?

12 in = 1 ft            1 in = 2.54 cm

678 cm xx (1 Inch)/(2.54 cm) xx (1 ft)/(12 Inches)= 22.2 ft

200

If you have 9.8x1025 formula units of Li2O, how many moles is that?

9.8e25FU xx(1 mol)/(6.02e23 FU) = 162.8 mol

200

What is the mole ratio between Fe and Fe2O3?

2Fe2O3 + 3C --> 4Fe + 3CO2

2 mol Fe2O3 = 4 mol Fe

200

CH4 + 2O2 --> CO2 + 2H2O

If 5 g of methane (CH4) reacts with excess oxygen. How many grams of carbon dioxide should we expect?


200

How tall is Mrs. O?

5' 7''

300

How many dollars is 697 quarters?

1 dollar = 4 quarters

697 quarters xx (1 dollar)/(4 quarters) = 174.25 dollars

300

500 grams of CO2 is how many moles?

500 g xx (1 mol CO2)/(44.01 g CO2)=11.36 mol

300

What is the molar mass of Ba(NO3)2?

Ba x 1    N x 2      O x 3

Use periodic table

261.34 g/mol

261 g  Ba(NO3)= 1 mol  Ba(NO3)2

2I2 + KIO3 + 6HCl --> 5ICl + KCl +3H2O

If 5.4 g of iodine reacts, what is the theoretical yield of ICl?

5.4 g I2 xx (1 mol I2)/(253.8 g I2) xx(5 mol ICl)/(2 mol I2) xx (162.35 gICl)/(1 mol ICl)= 8.6 g ICl

If Mrs. O watched 4.5 episodes of Spongebob on her treadmill, how many miles did she walk?

1 episode = 11 minutes           

3 miles = 1 hr   (her pace)

1 hr = 60 minutes

4.5 ep xx (11 min)/(1 ep)xx(1 hr)/(60 min)xx(3 mi)/(1 hr) = 2.475 mi

400

If you have 5.3 x 1022 atoms of Mg, how many grams is that?

5.3e22 "atoms" xx (1 mol)/(6.02e23 "atoms") xx (24.31 g)/(1 mol) = 2.1 g

What is the mole ratio needed if you know your starting amount of NaHCO3 and need to predict your ending amount of Na2SO4?

2NaHCO3(aq) + H2SO4(aq) --> Na2SO4(aq) + 2H2O(l) + 2CO2(g)

2 mol NaHCO3 = 1 mol Na2SO4

400

500

If you are 16.5 years old, how many seconds old are you?

1 yr = 365 days         1 day = 24 hours

1 hour = 60 minutes       1 minute = 60 seconds

16.5 yr xx (365 day)/(1 yr) xx (24 hr)/(1 day) xx (60 min)/(1 hr) xx (60 sec)/(1 min) = 5.2e8 sec

5.2e8 = 520344000 rounded

500
