Ooooh boy alright. So, this may or may not be a limited reactant problem so we need to first find out of it is.

First, how many moles of each substance are there

the molar mass of BCl3 is <span>117.17 grams so 37.5 g / 117.17 is ~ .32 mol.
The molar mass of H2O is 18.02 so 60 / 18.02 is ~ 3.33 mol.

Now, for every 1 mole of BCl3, there are 3 moles of HCl created. Therefore, BCl3 can create ~ .96 moles.
For every 3 moles of H2O, there are 3 moles of HCl created. Therefore, HCl can create ~3.33 moles.

But, there is not enough BCl3 to support that 3.33 moles, only enough for .96 moles, therefore BCl3 is the limiting reactant. Now, to answer the question, simply multiply .96 moles by the molar mass of HCl.

.96 x 36.46 = ~35 g</span>

How many atoms are in 0.500mol of calcium?
creativ13 [48]

Answer:

3.01×10²³ atoms of calcium

Explanation:

number of moles = number of atoms/Avogadro's constant

n = N/NA

N = n×NA = 0.500 mol×6.02×10²³ mol^-1

N = 3.01×10²³ atoms of calcium

How does the reaction, A + BC ⇌ AB + C, differ from the reaction, N2 + 3H2 ⇌ 2NH3 + energy, by which ammonia is synthesized?
-BARSIC- [3]

Answer:

N₂+3H₂ ⇄2NH₃ is a thermochemical reaction whereas A+BC⇄AB is not.

A+BC⇄AB is a reaction of pure a element with a compound while N₂+3H₂ ⇄2NH₃ is a reaction between two pure elements.

Explanation:

Let A+BC⇄AB be equation i and N₂+3H₂ ⇄2NH₃ be equation ii.

The two reactions differ in that ii is a thermo-chemical reaction whereas i is not. This is because energy is included in reaction ii but not included in reaction i.

Also i is a reaction of pure a element with a compound while ii is a reaction between two pure elements. The compound is BC while the pure element is A.

the volume of gas in a container was originally 3.24L, while at standard pressure 1.00 atm. what will the volume be if the press
Simora [160]
Hello!

To solve this problem, we will use the Boyle's Law, which describes how pressure changes when volume changes and vice-versa. The equation for this law is the following one, and we'll clear for V2:

P1*V1=P2*V2 \\ \\ V2= \frac{P1*V1}{P2}= \frac{3,24 L * 1 atm}{1,20 atm}= 2,7 L

So, the final volume after increasing the pressure would be 2,7 L. That means that volume decreases when the pressure increases

Identify the species oxidized, the species reduced, the oxidizing agent and the reducing agent in the following electron transfe
babunello [35]

Answer:

Oxidized and reducing agent: manganese.

Reduced and oxidizing agent: mercury.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, for the reaction:

Hg^{2+}(aq) + Mn^0(s)\rightarrow Hg(s) + Mn^{2+}(aq)

We keep in mind that the species that increase the oxidation state is the oxidized one whereas the one that decrease the oxidation state is the reduced one; therefore manganese is the oxidized one as well as the reducing agent because it goes from 0 to +2 and mercury the reduced one as well as the oxidizing agent because it goes from 2+ to 0.

Best regards
