Answer: AgNO3 is the limiting reactant.

Explanation:

1) Balanced chemical equation:

<span>Given: 2AgNO3 + NiCl2 → 2AgCl + Ni(NO3)2

2) Mole ratios:

2 mol AgNO3 : 1 mol NiCl2 : 2 mol AgCl : 1 mol Ni(NO3)2

3) Convert 0.847 g of AgNO3 to moles

n = mass in grams /  molar mass

molar mass = sum of the masses of all the atoms in the molecular formula

molar mass of AgNO3 = 107.9 g/mol + 14.0 g/mol + 3*16.0 g/mol = 169.9 g/mol

n = 0.847 g / 169.9 g/mol = 0.00499 mol AgNO3

4) Convert 0.650 g of NiCl2 to moles

n = mass in grams / molar mass

molar mass NiCl2 = 58.7 g/mol + 2*35.5 g/mol = 129.7 g/mol

n = 0.650 g / 129.7 g/mol = 0.00501 mol NiCl2

5) Compare the theoretical mole ratio with the actual ratio:

Theoretical mole ratio: 2 mol AgNO3 / 1 mol NiCl2
Actual ratio: 0.00499 mol AgNO3 / 0.00501 mol Ni Cl2 ≈ 1:1

Therefore, the amount of AgNO3 is half the required amount need to react with all the NiCl2, which means that the AgNO3 will react completely and there will be an excess of NiCl2. The reactant that is consumed completely while the other is left, is the limiting reactan. This is, AgNO3 is the limiting reactant.</span>

Based on the chemical equation, use the drop-down menu to choose the coefficients that will balance the chemical equation: ()Na2
anyanavicka [17]

Answer:

The coefficients in order are 2, 1, 1

Explanation:

Each side of the reaction needs to have the same number of each element due to conservation of matter.

First I looked at what was uneven, notice there are 2 Na on the left side and 4 Na on the left. The easiest way to fix that is to add a 2 on the Na2HPO4:

2(Na2HPO4)--> Na4P2O7 + H2O

Next take count of each element on both sides to see if the 2 balanced everything:

On the left there are 4 Na, 2 H, 2 P, and 8 O

On the right there are 4 Na, 2 H, 2 P, and 8 O

Since both sides match, you are done!

How many grams of HCl(aq) are required to react completely with 1.25g of Zn(s) to form ZnCl2(aq) and H2
faltersainse [42]

1.39 g HCl

Explanation:

The balanced chemical equation for this reaction is given by

Zn(<em>s</em>) + 2HCl(<em>aq</em>) ---> ZnCl2(<em>aq</em>) + H2(<em>g</em>)

Convert the # of grams of Zn to moles:

1.25 g Zn × (1 mol Zn/65.38 g Zn) = 0.0191 mol Zn

Use the molar ratio to find the # of moles of HCl needed to react completely with the given amount of Zn:

0.0191 mol Zn × (2 mol HCl/1 mol Zn) = 0.0382 mol HCl

Convert this amount to grams:

0.0382 mol HCl × (36.458 g HCl/1 mol HCl) = 1.39 g HCl
