The limiting reactant in the experiment of the burning candle is oxygen.

<h3>What is a limiting reactant?</h3>

A limiting reactant is a reactant which determines the amount of product that ca be formed in a given reaction.

The limiting reactant is always used up in a reaction, after which the reaction stops.

In the experiment of the burning candle, covering the candle with the glass prevents more oxygen from taking part in the reaction.

Therefore, the limiting reactant is oxygen.

Two methanol-water mixtures are contained in separate tanks. The first mixture contains 40.0 wt% methanol and the second contain
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

M_{per}= 52.86

W_{per}=47.14

Explanation:

<u>First mixture</u>:

40 wt% methanol - 60 wt% water 200 kg

m_{met1}=200 kg * 0.4= 80 kg

m_{wat1}=200 kg * 0.6= 120 kg

<u>Second mixture</u>:

70 wt% methanol - 30 wt% water 150 kg

m_{met2}=150 kg * 0.7= 105 kg

m_{wat2}=150 kg * 0.3= 45 kg

Final mixture:

m_{metF=80 kg + 105 kg= 185 kg

m_{watF}=120 kg + 45 = 165 kg

M_{per}=\frac{185 kg}{185 kg + 165 kg}*100= 52.86

W_{per}=\frac{165 kg}{185 kg + 165 kg}*100=47.14

If, the compositions are constant, the only variables are the mass of each mixture used in the final one, so there can be only one independent balance.

What makes the factor that makes the sky appear blue?
Charra [1.4K]

Answer:

Gases and particles in Earth's atmosphere scatter sunlight in all directions. Blue light is scattered more than other colors because it travels as shorter, smaller waves. This is why we see a blue sky most of the time.
