Brainlet here.
How would you solve a chemistry problem like this?
I'm a layman trying to learn chemistry.

Is the first answer 5kg?
I don't know how you find the second answer.
Anyone mind explaining?

Convert grams to moles using molar mass. Then use the ratio then convert moles back to grams using other substances molar mass.

I'm glad someone figured out the joke.
It's just a workbook problem I found from google images.
Instead of starting from the beginning I like to pick a hard looking problem and try to solve it, even if I can't I find I learn much faster this way.

>>12622006
So looking at the first problem,

4.6292 moles of UO2 = 1.25 kg of UO2?
How do I determine how much HF?
4.6292 * 4?

18.5168 moles = 370.4535 grams
so you would need 0.3704535 kg?

Tell me how wrong I am.

>>12621981
For an easy overview, go look up "Organic Chemistry Tutor" on yewtu.be (youtube privacy frontend). I'll tldr the steps

1. convert grams into moles (mass given over molar mass)
2. Set up molar ratio
2b. i.e. X.XX mol of UO2 x HF/UO2
3. Get how many mol you need for compound in question
4. convert mole to gram by mole number x 6.022 x10^22
5. click in number
6. stop browsing /sci/, post these questions to /fit/ they have bigger brains.

You forgot to convert kg to g and back again
Not doing the calculations for you but the structure looks right

>> No.12622063

>>12622057
Step 4 is wrong. You use molar mass. Avogadro give you atoms not mass

>instead of starting from the beginng. You fucking nigger, you're obviously not smart and are a grandiose midwit. Everyone needs to learn from the beginning, you don't innately know theroies or mechanisms in basic STEM shit. This is called Stoichiometry and a kid taking grade 10 chemistry could calculate the limiting reagent here - fucking midwits get off my board REEEEEEE

Thanks that's all I was looking for.
I was going to go with this one but I thought the one about U and HF would get a chuckle.

I only had chemistry for a single year in highschool and we just learned what atoms were and had to memorize the periodic table with no context for what we were memorizing.

It's actually a lot of fun to jump into something you don't know anything about and try to tackle something really difficult.
I'm a big fan of puzzle games and doing stuff like this hit's that same itch.

Read the thread I already posted my second attempt at it. >>12622061
said I got it minus the conversion mistakes
Now I'm discovering the Avogadro Constant and reading more about stoichiometry. The solutions not actually important. This is what I wanted from the question.

the molar mass is based on the unit g/mol. convert the uo2 in kg to g first

I'm supposed to write a chemical formula for the reaction of heating Copper chloride hydate until it turns brown (dehydrated)

is it just Cucl*h2o + OH -> Cucl or Cucl*H2O + heat -> Cucl?

>> No.12622665

>>12622656
I meant cucl*h2o + O2 in the first reaction I wrote obviously
