Zinc Sulfide reacts with oxygen according to the reaction:

Chemistry
1 answer:
zhuklara [117]1 year ago
6 0

The amount in moles of the excess reactant left is 0.5 mole

<h3>Balanced equation</h3>

2ZnS (s) + 3O₂(g) --> 2ZnO (s) + 2SO₂(g)

From the balanced equation,

2 moles of ZnS reacted with 3 moles of O₂

<h3>How to determine the excess reactant</h3>

From the balanced equation,

2 moles of ZnS reacted with 3 moles of O₂

Therefore,

4.2 moles of ZnS will react with =(4.2 × 3) / 2 = 6.3 moles of O₂

From the calculations made above, we can see that only 6.3 moles of O₂ out of 6.8 moles given, is required to react completely with 4.2 moles of ZnS.

Thus, ZnS is the limiting reactant and O₂ is the excess reactant.

<h3> How to determine the mole of the excess reactant remaining</h3>

The excess reactant is O₂. Thus the mole remaining after the reaction can be obtained as illustrated below:

  • Mole of O₂ given = 6.8 moles
  • Mole of O₂ that reacted = 6.3 moles
  • Mole of O₂ remaining =?

Mole of O₂ remaining = (Mole of O₂ given) - (Mole of O₂ that reacted)

Mole of O₂ remaining = 6.8 - 6.3

Mole of O₂ remaining = 0.5 mole

Concept Review<br> 14.11. Can a reaction that is not reversible achieve chemical equilibrium?
MakcuM [25]

Answer:

No

Explanation:

Chemical equilibrium is reached by the forward reaction rate equaling the reverse reaction rate. If the reaction is not reversible, this could not occur.

What other kinds of empirical evidence can be used to show common ancestry among organisms?
kotegsom [21]

Answer:There are, however, other forms of empirical evidence that support the theory of evolution. The fossil record, anatomical and embryological homologous, and genetic similarities are also used to support the theory of evolution. Many pieces of evidence support the theory that birds and dinosaurs are related.

Nitric acid (HNO3) is a strong acid that is completely ionized in aqueous solutions of concentrations ranging from 1% to 10% (1.
Alborosie

<u>Given:</u>

Concentration of HNO3 = 7.50 M

% dissociation of HNO3 = 33%

<u>To determine:</u>

The Ka of HNO3

<u>Explanation:</u>

Based on the given data

[H+] = [NO3-] = 33%[HNO3] = 0.33*7.50 = 2.48 M

The dissociation equilibrium is-

            HNO3   ↔    H+      +      NO3-

I            7.50               0                 0

C          -2.48          +2.48              +2.48

E            5.02            2.48              2.48

Ka = [H+][NO3-]/HNO3 = (2.48)²/5.02 = 1.23

Ans: Ka for HNO3 = 1.23

I’m learning about heredity
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

1. (See explanation)

2. 46. 23 from the mother’s egg and 23 from the father’s sperm.

Explanation:

ok for number one I am not entirely sure, but I am pretty sure that light, chemicals and temperature can all affect which genes get turned on and off. I am not entirely sure if the question is asking about the environment influencing inherited traits in the form of natural selection tho? If that is something you’re seeing right now, it might be a possible answer. But honestly I am not completely sure.
