Answer:
The answer to your question is 1.1 moles of water
Explanation:
2Al(OH)₃ + 3H₂SO₄ ⇒ Al₂(SO₄)₃ + 6H₂O
0.45 mol 0.55 mol ?
Process
1.- Calculate the limiting reactant
Theoretical proportion
Al(OH)₃ / H₂SO₄ = 2/3 = 0.667
Experimental proportion
Al(OH)₃ / H₂SO₄ = 0.45 / 0.55 = 0.81
From the proportions, we conclude that the limiting reactant is H₂SO₄
2.- Calculate the moles of H₂O
3 moles of H₂SO₄ ---------------- 6 moles of water
0.55 moles of H₂SO₄ ----------- x
x = (0.55 x 6) / 3
x = 3.3 / 3
x = 1.1 moles of water
Answer:
Explanation:
Law of conservation of mass:
According to the law of conservation mass, mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical equation.
Explanation:
This law was given by french chemist Antoine Lavoisier in 1789. According to this law mass of reactant and mass of product must be equal, because masses are not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.
Chemical equation:
Mg + HCl → H₂ + MgCl₂
24 g + 36.5 g = 2 g+ 95 g
60.5 g = 97 g
The reaction does not hold the law of conservation of mass, because it is not balanced.
Balanced chemical equation:
Mg + 2HCl → H₂ + MgCl₂
24 g + 73 g = 2 g+ 95 g
97 g = 97 g
this equation completely follow the law of conservation of mass.
