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

A sample of gas has a volume of 100.0 L at 135°C. Assuming the pressure remains constant, what is the volume of the gas if its t
lina2011 [118]

Answer: 84.56L

Explanation:

Initial volume of gas V1 = 100L

Initial temperature T1 = 135°C

Convert temperature in Celsius to Kelvin

( 135°C + 273 = 408K)

Final temperature T2 = 72°C

( 72°C + 273= 345K)

Final volume V2 = ?

According to Charle's law, the volume of a fixed mass of a gas is directly proportional to the temperature.

Mathematically, Charles' Law is expressed as: V1/T1 = V2/T2

100L/408K = V2/345K

To get the value of V2, cross multiply

100L x 345K = V2 x 408K

34500 = V2 x 408K

V2.= 34500/408

V2 = 84.56L

Thus, the volume of the gas becomes 84.56 liters
