If the candle goes out when a glass jar is placed over it, then oxygen is the limiting reactant.

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

The limiting reactant is the reactant that is present in the least amount. When the limiting reactant is exhausted, the reaction comes to a halt.

Thus, if the candle goes out when a glass jar is placed over it, then oxygen is the limiting reactant.

sesenic [268]

Answer:

91.2 nm

Explanation:

The Rydberg equation is given by the formula

     1/ λ  = Rh ( 1/ n₁² - 1/ n₂²)

where

λ is the wavelength

Rh is Rydberg constant

and n₁ and n₂ are the energy levels of the transion.

We can see from this equation that the wavelength is inversely proportional to the difference of the squares of the inverse of the quantum numbers n₁ and n₂. It follows then that the smallest wavelength will be given when the the transitions are between the greatest separation between n₁ and n₂ whicg occurs when n1= 1 and n₂= ∞ , that is the greater the separation in energy levels the shorter the wavelength.

Substituting for n₁ and n₂ and solving for λ :

  1/λ = 1.0974 x 10⁷ m⁻¹ x ( 1/1² -1/ ∞²)  =  1.0974 x 10⁷ m⁻¹ x ( 1/1² - 0) =

  λ = 1/1.0974 x 10⁷ m = 9.1 x 10⁻8 m = 91.2 nm

How many moles of iron(III) hydroxide precipitate will form when 2.7 moles of aqueous sodium hydroxide reacts completely with ex
aalyn [17]

Answer:

0.9 mole of Fe(OH)3.

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is given below:

Fe(NO3)3 + 3NaOH —> Fe(OH)3 + 3NaNO3

Now, we can determine the moles of iron (III) hydroxide formed from the reaction as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

3 moles of NaOH reacted to produce 1 mole of Fe(OH)3.

Therefore, 2.7 moles of NaOH will react to produce = 2.7/3 = 0.9 mole of Fe(OH)3.

Therefore, 0.9 mole of Fe(OH)3 is produced from the reaction.

Which would usually influence a reaction rate more? OH os O H&amp;S O Neither H nors
bagirrra123 [75]

Answer:

As the average kinetic energy increases, the particles move faster and collide more frequently per unit time and possess greater energy when they collide. Both of these factors increase the reaction rate. Hence the reaction rate of virtually all reactions increases with increasing temperature

Nitrogen dioxide reacts with water to form nitric acid and nitrogen monoxide according to the equation: 3NO2(g)+H2O(l)→2HNO3(l)+
Vesnalui [34]

Answer:

2 mol NO2

Explanation:

                                      3NO2(g)+H2O(l)→2HNO3(l)+NO(g)

from reaction                3 mol        1 mol

given                           11 mol          3 mol

for 3 mol NO2  -----   1 mol H2O

for x mol NO2  -----   3 mol H2O

3:x = 1:3

x = 3 *3/1 = 9 mol NO2

So, for 3 mol H2O are needed only 9 mol NO2.

But we have 11 mol NO2. So, NO2 is in excess, and

11 mol NO2 - 9 mol NO2 = 2 mol NO2 will be left after reaction.
