Hello!

1) What is the limiting reactant?

The chemical equation for this reaction is:

2Al(OH)₃ → Al₂O₃ + 3H₂O

The Limiting Reactant is the one that is in the lowest amount in the reaction and determines how many moles are produced. You can see that in this chemical equation there is only one reactant since this reaction is a decomposition reaction. So, the limiting reactant is Al(OH)₃.

2) How many grams of water are produced?

The chemical equation for this reaction is:

2Al(OH)₃ → Al₂O₃ + 3H₂O

So, we are going to use the following conversion factor to go from grams of Al(OH)₃ to grams of water:

$17,8 g Al(OH)_3* \frac{1 mol Al(OH)_3}{78 g Al(OH)_3}* \frac{3 moles H_2O}{2 moles Al(OH)_3}* \frac{18,015 g H_2O}{1 mol H_2O} \\ =6,17 g H_2O$

So, 6,17 grams of Water are produced.

Have a nice day!

Commercial grade HCl solutions are typically 39.0% (by mass) HCl in water. Determine the molality of the HCl, if the solution ha

marta [7]

Molality of the solution is defined as the number of moles of a substance dissolved divided by the mass of the solvent:

Molality = number of moles / solvent mass

From the concentration of 39% (by mass) of HCl in water, we construct the following reasoning:

in 100 g solution we have 39 g hydrochloric acid (HCl)

number of moles = mass / molecular weight

number of moles of HCl = 39 / 36.5 = 1.07 moles

solvent (water) mass = solution mass - hydrochloric acid mass

solvent (water) mass = 100 - 39 = 61 g

Now we can determine the molality:

molality = 1.07 moles / 61 g = 0.018

The chemist discovers a more efficient catalyst that can produce ethyl butyrate with a 78.0% yield. How many grams would be prod

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

The grams that would be produced from 7.70 g of butanoic acid and excess ethanol is 7.923grams

calculation

Step 1: write the chemical equation for the reaction

CH3CH2CH2COOH + CH3CH2OH → CH3CH2CH2COOCH2CH3 +H2O

step 2: find the moles of butanoic acid

moles= mass/ molar mass

= 7.70 g/ 88 g/mol=0.0875 moles

Step 3: use the mole ratio to determine the moles of ethyl butyrate

moles ratio of CH3CH2CH2COOH :CH3CH2CH2COOCH2CH3 is 1:1 therefore the moles of CH3CH2CH2COOCH2CH3 = 0.0875 x78/100=0.0683moles

step 4: find mass = moles x molar mass

= 0.0683 moles x116 g/mol=7.923grams

How much energy (heat) is required to convert 52.0 g of ice at –10.0°C to steam at 100°C? Specific heat of ice 2.09 J/g • °C Spe

dexar [7]

Answer: The energy (heat) required to convert 52.0 g of ice at –10.0°C to steam at 100°C is 157.8 kJ

Explanation:

Using this formular, q = [mCpΔT] and = [nΔHfusion]

The energy that is needed in the different physical changes is thus:

The heat needed to raise the ice temperature from -10.0°C to 0°C is given as as:

q = [mCpΔT]

q = 52.0 x 2.09 x 10

q = 1.09 kJ

While from 0°C to 100°C is calculated as:

q = [mCpΔT]

q = 52.0 x 4.18 x 100

q = 21.74 kJ

And for fusion at 0°C is called Heat of fusion and would be given as:

q = n ΔHfusion

q = 52.0 / 18.02 x 6.02

q = 17.38 kJ

And that required for vaporization at 100°C is called Heat of vaporization and it's given as:

q = n ΔHvaporization

q = 52.0 / 18.02 x 40.7

q = 117.45 kJ

Add up all the energy gives 157.8 kJ
