The mass of water produced by the reaction of the 23 g of [tex]SiO_2[/tex] is 13.8 g.
The given chemical reaction;
[tex]4Hf (g) \ + \ SiO_2 (s) \ --> \ SiF_4(g) \ + \ 2H_2O(l)[/tex]
In the given compound above, we can deduce the following;
60 g of [tex]SiO_2[/tex] --------- 36 g of water
23 g of [tex]SiO_2[/tex] ------------- ? of water
[tex]mass \ of \ water = \frac{23 \times 36}{60} = 13.8 \ g \ of \ water[/tex]
Thus, the mass of water produced by the reaction of the 23 g of [tex]SiO_2[/tex] is 13.8 g.
In the reaction of the given compound, [tex]4Hf (g) \ + \ SiO_2 (s) \ --> \ SiF_4(g) \ + \ 2H_2O(l)[/tex], what mass of water (in grams) is produced by the reaction of 23.0 g of SiO2?
