Ammonia reacts with diatomic oxygen to form nitric oxide and water vapor: 4nh3 + 5o2 → 4no + 6h2o when 40.0 g nh3 and 50.0 g o2

are allowed to react, which is the limiting reagent?

Convert the mass to moles:

40.0 grams of NH3 / 17.03 g/mol = 2.35 moles NH3<span>
<span>50.0 grams of O2 / 31.998 g/mol = 1.56 moles O2</span></span>

Get the actual ratio:

NH3/O2 = 2.35 / 1.56 = 1.5

 

The theoretical ratio is 4 NH3 to 5 O2, that is:

(NH3/O2)theo = 4 / 5 = 0.8

 

<span>Since actual > theoretical and the ratio is NH3/O2, therefore the limiting reagent is O2.</span>

What volume of carbon dioxide gas can be collected from
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

1.22 L of carbon dioxide gas

Explanation:

The reaction that takes place is:

  • CaCO₃ + HCl → CaCl₂ + CO₂ + H₂O

First we <u>determine which reactant is limiting</u>:

  • Calcium carbonate ⇒ 10.0 g CaCO₃ ÷ 100 g/mol = 0.10 mol CaCO₃
  • Hydrochloric acid ⇒ 0.100 L * 0.50 M = 0.05 mol HCl

So HCl is the limiting reactant.

Now we calculate the moles of CO₂ produced:

  • 0.05 mol HCl * \frac{1molCO_{2}}{1molHCl} = 0.05 mol CO₂

Finally we use PV=nRT to <u>calculate the volume</u>:

  • P = 1 atm
  • n = 0.05 mol
  • T = 25 °C ⇒ 25 + 273.16 = 298.16 K

1 atm * V = 0.05 mol * 0.082 atm·L·mol⁻¹·K⁻¹ * 298.16 K

  • V = 1.22 L

In aqueous solution, hypobromite ion, BrO-, reacts to produce bromate ion, BrO3 -, and bromide ion, Br-, according to the follow
maw [93]

Answer:

22.73s

Explanation:

The reaction is a second order reaction, we know this by observing the unit of the slope.

rate constant = k = 0.056 M-1s-1

the initial concentration of BrO- [A]o = 0.80 M

time = ?

Final concentration [A]t= one-half of 0.80 M = 0.40M

1 / [A]t = kt + 1 / [A]o

1 / 0.40 = 0.056 * t + 1 / 0.80

t = (2.5 - 1.25) / 0.056

t = 22.73s
