Consider the reaction between HCl and O2: 4HCl grams + O2 - 2 H2O liquid + 2 Cl2 grams When 63.1 grams of HCl react with 17.2 g

of O2, 49.3 grams of Cl2 are collected. What is the limiting reactant?

The balanced equation for the above reaction is as follows;
4HCl + O₂ ---> 2H₂O + 2Cl₂
stoichiometry of HCl to O₂ is 4:1
number of HCl moles present - 63.1 g / 36.5 g/mol = 1.73 mol
number of O₂ moles present - 17.2 g / 32 g/mol = 0.54 mol
if HCl is the limiting reactant; then number of O₂ moles = 1.73/4 = 0.43 mol
There are 0.54 mol present and only 0.43 mol are required to react. Therefore HCl is the limiting reactant and O₂ is in excess.

laiz [17]

Answer:

80cm3 of water, and 60cm3 carbon IV oxide is formed while 20cm3 of oxygen is left unreacted.

Explanation:

From Gay-Lussac's law, there are five volumes of oxygen, 1 volume if propane, 4 volumes of water and three volumes of CO2. Applying this shows the reacting volumes as we have in the image attached, hence the volumes left after reaction.

set of 4 possible quantum numbers

Principal quantum no : n = 1 ,

Azimuthal quantum no l = 0

Magnetic quantum no m = 0

Spin quantum no  s = + 1/2

set of other quantum nos

Principal quantum no : n = 1 ,

Azimuthal quantum no l = 0

Magnetic quantum no m = 0

Spin quantum no  s = - 1/2

Thorium-234 has a half-life of 24.1 days. How many grams of a 150 g sample would you have after 120.5 days?
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

8.625 grams of a 150 g sample of Thorium-234  would be left after 120.5 days

Explanation:

The nuclear half life represents the time taken for the initial amount of sample  to reduce into half of its mass.

We have given that the half life of thorium-234 is 24.1 days. Then it takes 24.1 days for a Thorium-234 sample to reduced to half of its initial amount.

Initial amount of Thorium-234 available as per the question is 150 grams

So now  we start with 150 grams  of Thorium-234

150 \times \frac{1}{2}=24.1

75 \times \frac{1}{2} =48.2

34.5 \times \frac{1}{2} =72.3

17.25 \times \frac{1}{2} =96.4

8.625\times \frac{1}{2} =120.5

So after 120.5 days the amount of sample that remains is 8.625g

In simpler way , we can use the below formula to find the sample left

A=A_{0} \cdot \frac{1}{2^{n}}

Where

A_0  is the initial sample amount  

n = the number of half-lives that pass in a given period of time.

Archy [21]

Answer:

<h3>The answer is option C</h3>

Explanation:

The mass of a substance when given the density and volume can be found by using the formula

<h3>mass = Density × volume</h3>

From the question

volume of liquid = 15 mL

density = 2.5 g/mL

We have

mass = 15 × 2.5

We have the final answer as

<h3>37.5 g</h3>

Hope this helps you
