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.

The molar heat of fusion of gold is 12.550 kJ mol–1. At its melting point, how much mass of melted gold must solidify to release
KATRIN_1 [288]

The mass of melted gold to release the energy would be  3, 688. 8 Kg

<h3>How to determine the mass</h3>

The formula for quantity of energy is given thus;

Q = n × HF

Where n represents number of moles

HF  represents  heat of fusion

To find the number of moles, we have

235.0 = n × 12.550

number of moles = \frac{235}{12. 550} = 18. 725 moles

Note that molar mass of Gold is 197g/ mol

Let's note that;

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 18. 725 × 197

Mass = 3, 688. 8 Kg

Thus, the mass of melted gold to release the energy would be  3, 688. 8 Kg

What are some problems chemist must consider when developing new technologies?
Ratling [72]
The study of chemistry helps us understand the nature of the world around us. Chemistry is always developing to keep up with any phenomenon that appears in nature.
Therefore, scientists and chemists are always developing new technologies. However, chemists must very careful when developing these new technologies. They should consider any bad chemical reactions that might occur and also chemicals that harmful to either the individuals or the environment.
