Answer:

Answer: 6.5 moles of silver metal is formed in the given chemical reaction. The moles of excess reagent left are 0.55 moles.

Explanation:

To calculate the moles of silver formed and the moles of excess reagent left after the reaction, we need to balance the equation first and need to find the limiting and excess reagent.

The balanced chemical equation is:

Zn + 2AgNO3 ---> Zn (NO3)2 +2Ag

By Stoichiometry:

2 moles of Silver nitrate reacts with 1 mole of Zinc metal

So, 6.5 moles of silver nitrate will react with = 1/2 x 6.5 = 3.25 moles of zinc metal

The required amount of zinc metal is less than the given amount of zinc metal,  hence, it is considered as an excess reagent.

Therefore, silver nitrate is the limiting reagent because it limits the formation of product.

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of silver nitrate produces 2 moles of silver metal

So, 6.5 moles of silver nitrate will produce = 2/2 x 6.5 = 6.5moles of silver metal.

Number of moles of excess reagent left after the completion of reaction = (3.8 - 3.25)moles = 0.55 moles

Hence, 6.5 moles of silver metal is formed in the given chemical reaction. The moles of excess reagent left are 0.55 moles.

Explanation:

4.                 limestone heat lime + carbon dioxide

The reactants in this expression above is limestone

The products of the reaction is carbon dioxide and lime

Reactant is the species that gives the product and it is usually found on the left hand side of the expression.

The product is the substance on the right hand side of the expression that forms through the experiment.

Heat is used to facilitate the reaction.

5. An exothermic reaction is a reaction in which heat is given off.

An endothermic reaction is a reaction in which heat is absorbed in the process.

An exothermic reaction is always warmer after the reaction whereas an endothermic reaction is colder at the end of the reaction.

The reactants are:

                  Carbon dioxide and sodium phenoxide

The product is:

If South America were not there, explain how the direction of South equatorial current would be different
forsale [732]

Explanation:

South America land mass serves as a deflector for the South equatorial current. This deflection the current causes them to move in a different direction. If the Continent were not present the direction of the South equatorial current would not change and it would continue to flow in the west.
