Answer:

Scientist increases the surface area of a solute by grinding the solute with a motor and pestle.

Explanation:

Grinding of a solid solute exposes the reactant molecules to new surfaces. When the surface area increases it allows greater frequency of collision between the reactant particles. The reactant particles can now collide in proper orientation. The increase in surface area thus speeds up the rate of the reaction.

How many moles are in 5.0 x 1025 atoms of iron

Mnenie [13.5K]

1 mole --------------- 6.02 x 10²³ atoms
( moles iron) -------- 5.0 x 10²⁵ atoms

( moles iron ) = 5.0 x 10²⁵ x 1 / 6.02 x 10²³

moles iron = 5.0 x 10²⁵ / 6.02 x 10²³

= 83.05 moles of iron

hope this helps!

Which chemical is the limiting reagent for the entire series of reactions? Why?

Reptile [31]

I'm assuming that you are asking a general question because you did not include an example.

The limiting reagent is the item in the reactants (reagents) that will run out first. This is because it limits what the reaction can produce, essentially causing the leftover elements/compounds to just sit there.
