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.

What reaction will take place if h2o is added to a mixture of nanh2/nh3? draw the products of the reaction (without sodium ion)?
Maru [420]

When sodium amide i.e.NaNH_{2} reacts with water i.e. H_{2}O results in the formation of sodium hydroxide i.e. NaOH and ammonia NH_{3}.

The chemical reaction is given by:

NaNH_{2}+H_{2}O\rightarrow NH_{3}+NaOH

Now, when ammonia i.e.NH_{3} reacts with water results in the formation of ammonium hydroxide i.e. NH_{4}OH

The chemical reaction is given by:

NH_{3}+H_{2}O\rightarrow NH_4OH

Thus, the products of the above reactions are ammonia and ammonium hydroxide (without sodium ion).

The structures of the products are shown in figure (1): ammonium hydroxide and figure (2) ammonia.

A graduated cylinder contains 20.8 mL of water. What is the new water level, in milliliters, after 35.2 g of silver metal is sub
stepladder [879]

<u>Answer:</u> The new water level of the cylinder is 24.16 mL

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the volume of water displaced by silver, we use the equation:

\text{Density of substance}=\frac{\text{Mass of substance}}{\text{Volume of substance}}

Density of silver = 10.49 g/mL

Mass of silver = 35.2 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

10.49g/mL=\frac{35.2g}{\text{Volume of silver}}\\\\\text{Volume of silver}=\frac{35.2g}{10.49g/mL}=3.36mL

We are given:

Volume of graduated cylinder = 20.8 mL

New water level of the cylinder = Volume of graduated cylinder + Volume of water displaced by silver

New water level of the cylinder = (20.8 + 3.36) mL = 24.16 mL

Hence, the new water level of the cylinder is 24.16 mL

How many grams are in 3.14 x 1015 molecules of CO?
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

Explanation:

Not Many

1 mol of CO has a mass of

C = 12

O = 16

1 mol = 28 grams.

1 mol of molecules = 6.02 * 10^23

x mol of molecules = 3.14 * 10^15        Cross multiply

6.02*10^23 x = 1 * 3.14 * 10^15             Divide by 6.02*10^23

x = 3.14*10^15 / 6.02*10^23

x = 0.000000005 mols

x = 5*10^-9

1 mol of CO has a mass of 28

5*10^-9 mol of CO has a mass of x                        Cross Multiply

x = 5 * 10^-9 * 28

x = 1.46 * 10^-7 grams

Answer: there are 1.46 * 10-7 grams of CO if only 3.14 * 10^15 molecules are in the sample
