Answer:

The reactant that is limiting is the Na2B4O7, and the mass of the excess reagent (H2SO4) is 2.5627g.

Explanation:

The unbalanced reaction is:

Na2B4O7 + H2SO4 + H2O ⇒ H3BO3 + Na2SO4

  • First the equation is balanced

Na2B4O7 + H2SO4 + 5H2O ⇒ 4H3BO3 + Na2SO4

According to the balanced equation we observe that it takes 1 mol of Na2B4O7 to react with 1 mol of H2SO4.

  • Then the molecular weights of each reactant are determined:

MWNa2B4O7 = 201.197 g/mol

MWH2SO4 = 98.075 g/mol

  • It is calculated how many moles will react with 5 initial grams of each.

201.197 g of Na2B4O7 ⇒ 1 mol

5 g                                 ⇒ X

X=\frac{5g*1mol}{201.197g/mol} =0.02485mol of Na2B4O7

98.075 g of H2SO4 ⇒ 1 mol

5 g                             ⇒ X

X=\frac{5g*1mol}{98.075g/mol} =0.05098mol of H2SO4

The limiting reagent is the one that is consumed first, in this case it is Na2B4O7, since 0.02485 moles are needed for both reactants, then there are 0.02613 moles of H2SO4 left over. With these moles the grams of excess reagent are calculated.

mass=MW*mol=98.075g/mol*0.02613mol=2.5627g

pressure has little effect on the solubility of liquids and solids because they are almost incompressible. True or False
slavikrds [6]

Pressure has little effect on the solubility of liquids and solids because they are almost incompressible True.

Liquids and solids show little change in solubility with changes in pressure. As expected, gases increase in solubility with increasing pressure. Henry's Law states that the solubility of a gas in a liquid is directly proportional to the pressure of that gas above the surface of the solution.

External pressure has little effect on liquid and solid solubility. In contrast, the solubility of a gas increases as the partial pressure of the gas above the solution increases.

Solubility is a measure of the concentration of dissolved gas particles in a liquid and is a function of gas pressure. Increasing the gas pressure increases the number of collisions and increases the solubility, and decreasing the pressure decreases the solubility.

What are some factors that might stop populations exponential growth?

Economy - If there isn't a sustainable economy, it won't be able to support many people so instead they are limited.

Weather- If a place is too warm or too cold it can affect the population. The weather may be seen as harsh.

Government- If people are not agreeing with the government and are against, many will leave. They won't be able to withstand it.

Overpopulation- If there is too many people, they may restrict how many babies you can have and how many people can live there. China, a co
