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.

Be sure to answer all parts. part 1 out of 4 how many nucleophilic centers are present in methanol (ch3oh)?
leva [86]

Answer:

              One nucleophilic center

Explanation;

Nucleophile:

                    Nucleophile is a substance which is nucleus loving in nature (<em>Nucleo</em>; Nucleus , <em>phile</em>; Loving). It is known as a specie which donates a lone pair of electrons to electrophile (electron loving) in a chemical reaction.

                    Thus, Nucleophile is the region of higher electron density in a molecule and attacks on the lower electron density region of another molecule. Also, the nucleophile can also contain a negative charge.

Number of Nucleophilic centers in Methanol:

The chemical structure of Methanol is attached below and it can be observed that the oxygen atom is containing two lone pair of electrons. Hence, the oxygen atom can act as a nucleophilic center. Therefore, there is only one nucleophilic center in methanol.

                        H₃C-OH  +  H₃C-Br     →        H₃C-O-CH₃  +  HBr

In above reaction methanol is acting as a nucleophile and is attacking on electrophilic center (Carbon) of methyl bromide yielding dimethyl ether.

In what type of environment would you most likely find Fish Species 1? Explain your answer.
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

Fish are more likely to hold a soft bait longer. ... Signs of small fish activity can lead you to fishing hot spots. ... Cover can be loosely defined as anything that will hide or protect the fish.

Explanation:

Fishes live in virtually all aquatic habitats. Different species of fish are adapted for different habitats: rocky shores, coral reefs, kelp forests, rivers and streams, lakes and ponds, under sea ice, the deep sea, and other environments of fresh, salt, and brackish water.

From the Henderson-Hasselbalch equation, explain how the ratio [Al/[HA] changes with changing pH
Kryger [21]

Answer:

The ratio [A-]/[HA] increase when the pH increase and the ratio decrease when the pH decrease.

Explanation:

Every weak acid or base is at equilibrium with its conjugate base or acid respectively when it is dissolved in water.

HA + H_{2}O ⇄ A^{-} + H_{3}O^{+}

This equilibrium depends on the molecule and it acidic constant (Ka). The Henderson-Hasselbalch equation,

pH = pKa + Log \frac{[A^{-}]}{[HA]}

shows the dependency between the pH of the solution, the pKa and the concentration of the species. If the pH decreases the concentration of protons will increase and the ratio between A- and AH will decrease. Instead, if the pH increases the concentration of protons will decreases and the ratio between A- and AH will increase.
