4 moles of hydrogen react with 5 moles of oxygen to form water, identify the excess reagent?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Fynjy0 [20]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Excess Reagent = oxygen

Explanation:

Limiting reagent: The substance that is totally consumed when the reaction is completed.

Excess reagent: The substance left after the limiting reagent is consumed completely

The balanced chemical equation for formation of water is as follow:

2H_{2}+O_{2}\rightarrow 2H_{2}O

This means when 2 moles of hydrogen reacts with 1 mole of oxygen, 2 moles of water is produced.

Hence the ratio in which hydrogen and oxygen gas reacts is 2:1

Now if 2 mole hydrogen require 1 mole of oxygen ,then 4 mole hydrogen need 2 mole of oxygen.

H_{2}:O_{2}=2:1

or

H_{2}:O_{2}=4:2

Here 5 mole of oxygen is reacting but only 2 mole is required .

Oxygen is in excess.

Which has the greatest mass, box of rocks box of paperclips or empty box
olga nikolaevna [1]
The density of an ordinay rock is close to 3 g/cm^3 wihle the density of the paper clips is close to 8 g/cm^3 (the density of steel), then equal apparent volumes (same box) will contain different mass, being of course the mass of the box with paper clips much higher than that of the box with rocks.

pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

Succinic acid

Explanation:

The most common possibility is succinic acid

As it has decimals after whole no till hundredth it contains OH and C in most of the cases .

Let's check for succinic acid

  • C4H_6O_6
  • 4(12)+4(16)+6
  • 64+48+6
  • 118u

Yes approximately equal

Molecular formula is.

(CH_2)_2(CO_2H)_2

When particles that attract each other are allowed to come to together, energy is ______
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

Released

Explanation:

When particles that attract each other come together, energy is usually released. The combination of the two particles is expected to result in a lower energy system. This lower energy system will be more stable than the different individual particles.

Hence, as this lower energy system is formed, the excess energy originally possessed by the particles is evolved hence energy is released when particles that attract each other are allowed to come together.
