The following reaction shows the products when sulfuric acid and aluminum hydroxide react.
scoray [572]

Leftover: approximately 11.73 g of sulfuric acid.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Which reactant is <em>in excess</em>?

The theoretical yield of water from Al(OH)₃ is lower than that from H₂SO₄. As a  result,

  • Al(OH)₃ is the limiting reactant.
  • H₂SO₄ is in excess.

How many <em>moles</em> of H₂SO₄ is consumed?

Balanced equation:

2 Al(OH)₃ + 3 H₂SO₄ → Al₂(SO₄)₃ + 6 H₂O

Each mole of Al(OH)₃ corresponds to 3/2 moles of H₂SO4. The formula mass of Al(OH)₃ is 78.003 g/mol. There are 15 / 78.003 = 0.19230 moles of Al(OH)₃ in the five grams of Al(OH)₃ available. Al(OH)₃ is in excess, meaning that all 0.19230 moles will be consumed. Accordingly, 0.19230 × 3/2 = 0.28845 moles of H₂SO₄ will be consumed.

How many <em>grams</em> of H₂SO₄ is consumed?

The molar mass of H₂SO₄ is 98.076 g.mol. The mass of 0.28845 moles of H₂SO₄ is 0.28845 × 98.076 = 28.289 g.

How many <em>grams</em> of H₂SO₄ is in excess?

40 grams of sulfuric acid H₂SO₄ is available. 28.289 grams is consumed. The remaining 40 - 28.289 = 11.711 g is in excess. That's closest to the first option: 11.73 g of sulfuric acid.

Write the balanced equation for the reaction given below: C2H6 + O2 --&gt; CO2 + H2O. If 16.4 L of C2H6 reacts with 0.980 mol of
Natalka [10]
The balanced reaction: C2H6 + 7/2 O2 -> 2 CO2 + 3 H2O

We first convert volume of C2H6 to no. of moles. We use the conditions at STP where 1 mol = 22.4 L thus,

Moles C2H6 = 16.4 L/ 22.4 L =0.7321 mol

In order to determine the limiting reagent, we look at the given amounts of the reactants.

0.7321 mol C2H6 (7/2 mol O2 / 1 mol C2H6) = 2.562 mol O2

From the given amounts of the reactants, we can say that O2 is the limiting reactant since we need 2.562 mol O2 to completely react the given amount of C2H6. The excess reagent is C2H6

To calculate for the amount of products and excess reactants:

0.980 mol O2 (2 mol CO2 / (7/2 mol O2)) = 0.56 mol CO2 (22.4 L / 1 mol ) =12.544 L CO2
<span>0.980 mol O2 (1 mol C2H6 / (7/2 mol O2)) = 0.28 mol C2H6
Excess C2H6 = 0.7321 mol - 0.28 mol C2H6 = 0.4521 mol C2H6

We then use the molecular weight of C2H6 to convert the excess amount to grams.

0.4521 mol C2H6 (30.08 g C2H6 / 1 mol C2H6) = <span>13.60 g C2H6 
</span></span>
<span>Since the limiting reagent is O2 there will be no oxygen atoms that will be left after the reaction.</span>

Which of the following is an acid-base neutralization reaction? (1 point)
GuDViN [60]
It would be NaOH + HCl → <span>NaCl + H2O
</span>
NaOH is sodium hydroxide, which is a strong base. HCl  is hydrochloric acid, which is a strong acid. 

You have a strong base and a strong acid on the left side, however, at the result side, you end up with NaCl + H2O. Sodium chloride is simply table salt and H2O is just water, thus it has been neutralized.

Characteristics of reliable scientific explanations are present in the development of the atomic theory in the given passage.

<h3>What is atomic theory?</h3>

Atomic theory is the scientific theory that matter is composed of particles called atoms.

The discoveries of subatomic particles such as;

  • electron by J.J. Thomson
  • proton by Ernest Rutherford
  • neutron by James Chadwick
  • nucleus by  Ernest Rutherford

all contributed in the development of the atomic theory.

From the information given in the passage J.J. Thomson experiment gave rise to atomic model while Rutherford, Geiger and Ernest Marsden, performed the experiment that discovered nucleus and proton.

Thus, characteristics of reliable scientific explanations are present in the development of the atomic theory in the given passage.
