A 1.25 g sample of aluminum is reacted with 3.28 g of copper (II) sulfate. What is the limiting reactant?
2Al(s) + 3CuSO4(aq) = Al2(SO4)3(aq) + 3Cu(s)

Select one:
a. Copper
b. Aluminum sulfate
c. Aluminum
d. Copper (II) sulfate

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

d. Copper (II) sulfate

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of Al = 1.25 g

Mass of CuSO₄ = 3.28 g

What is limiting reactant = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2Al + 3CuSO₄   →   Al₂ (SO₄)₃ + 3Cu

Number of moles of Al:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 1.25 g/ 27 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.05 mol

Number of moles of CuSO₄:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 3.28 g/ 159.6 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.02 mol

now we will compare the moles of reactant with product.

               Al           :           Al₂ (SO₄)₃

                 2          :             1

               0.05       :          1/2×0.05=0.025 mol

                Al           :            Cu

                 2            :              3

               0.05         :            3/2×0.05 = 0.075 mol

         CuSO₄           :           Al₂ (SO₄)₃

                3             :             1

               0.02         :          1/3×0.02=0.007 mol

         CuSO₄           :            Cu

               3               :              3

               0.02         :              0.02

Less number of moles of reactants are produced by CuSO₄ thus it will act as limiting reactant.

Which science process skill uses numbers to describe objects​

Answers

Answer: Science process skills include observing qualities, measuring quantities, sorting/classifying, inferring, predicting, experimenting, and communicating.

Which of the following best describes the velocity of an object?
A B0 m/s
B 30 m east
C 30 m/s east
D 30 m/s2

Answers

The answer is c
30 m/s east

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf C. \ 30 \ m/s \ east}}[/tex]

Explanation:

Velocity is the vector measurement of the change in position over time. A vector measurement means the answer must include a magnitude (numerical value) and a direction.

Here are some units of velocity:

m/s (meters per second) kph (kilometers per hour) km/s (kilometers per second)

There are many other units, but m/s is the most common.

We can eliminate choice B and D, because the units (meters-m and meters per second squared-m/s²) are not for velocity.

We are left with choice A (30 m/s) and C (30 m/s east). Remember, velocity needs a number and a direction. C contains the direction east, so it must be the correct answer.

How many moles of oxygen are in a sample of 29.1 moles of coal (C135H96O9NS)?

Answers

Answer:

2.19moles

Explanation:

mole = mass ÷ molar mass

Molar Mass of the compound, C135H96O9NS =

12(135) + 1(96) + 16(9) + 14 + 32

= 1620 + 96 + 144 + 14 + 32

= 1906g/mol

Next, we calculate the mass percent of Oxygen in the compound

O9 = 16(9) = 144g/mol

144/1906 × 100

= 0.0755 × 100

= 7.55%

This means that there are 0.0755g of Oxygen in 1 mole of the coal compound.

Hence, in 29.1 moles of coal, there would be 29.1 × 0.0755

= 2.19moles of Oxygen

Aluminium and oxygen react to produce aluminium oxide,

How many kilograms of aluminium oxide are formed when 5,4 kg of aluminium react
with excess oxygen?
A 5,4 kg
B 88 kg
C 10.2 kg
D 33,6 kg

Answers

The balanced reaction is

4 Al + 3 O₂   →   2 Al₂O₃

so that for every 4 moles of Al and 3 moles of O2, you end up with 2 moles of Al₂O₃.

• Al has molar mass ≈ 26.982 g/mol

• O has molar mass ≈ 15.999 g/mol

• Al₂O₃ thus has molar mass ≈ 101.961 g/mol

You start with 5.4 kg = 5,400 g of Al, or

(5.4 kg Al) • (1/26.982 mol/g) ≈ 200.133 mol Al

Al₂O₃ is produced in a ratio of 2 moles to every 4 moles of Al, so you end up with about 100.067 mol Al₂O₃, which has a mass of

(100.067 mol Al₂O₃) • (101.961 g/mol) ≈ 10,202 g = 10.2 kg

so the answer is C.

How many milliliters of sodium metal, with a density of 0.97 g/mL, would be needed to produce 34.5 grams of sodium hydroxide in the single replacement reaction below?
Unbalanced equation: Na + H2O ---> NaOH + H2

Answers

Volume of Sodium metal : 20.454 ml

Further explanation

Reaction(balanced) :

2Na + 2H₂O → 2NaOH + H₂

mass NaOH = 34.5 g

mol NaOH(MW=40 g/mol) :

[tex]\tt mol=\dfrac{mass}{MW}\\\\mol=\dfrac{34.5}{40}\\\\mol=0.8625[/tex]

From the equation, mol ratio of Na : NaOH = 2 : 2, so mol Na=mol NaOH=0.8625

Mass Na (Ar=23 g/mol):

[tex]\tt mass=mol\times MW\\\\mass=0.8625\times 23\\\\mass=19.84~g[/tex]

Volume Na :

A gas mixture with a total pressure of 745 mmHg contains each of the following gases at the indicated partial pressures: CO2, 125 mmHg; Ar, 214 mmHg; and O2, 187 mmHg. The mixture also contains helium gas. What is the partial pressure of the helium gas

Answers

Answer:

219 mmHg

Explanation:

The partial pressure of a gas refers to the pressure exerted by one of the gases in a mixture of gases.

The total pressure of a gas is the sum of all the partial pressures of all the gases in the mixture.

Since the total pressure = 745 mmHg

The partial pressure of helium is;

745 - (125 + 214 + 187)

Partial Pressure of helium gas= 219 mmHg
