Chemical reaction: Ba(NO₃)₂ + H₂SO₄ → BaSO₄ + 2HNO₃.
V(H₂SO₄) = 250 mL ÷ 1000 mL/L = 0,25 L.
m(BaSO₄) = 0,55 g.
n(BaSO₄) = m(BaSO₄) ÷ M(BaSO₄).
n(BaSO₄) = 0,55 g ÷ 233,38 g/mol.
n(BaSO₄) = 0,00235 mol.
From chemical reaction: n(BaSO₄) : n(Ba(NO₃)₂) = 1 : 1.
n(Ba(NO₃)₂) = 0,00235 mol.
c(Ba(NO₃)₂) = n(Ba(NO₃)₂) ÷ V.
c(Ba(NO₃)₂) = 0,00235 mol ÷ 0,25 L.
c(Ba(NO₃)₂) = 0,0095 mol/L.
Zn+2HCl ----> 2ZnCl2 + H2
For 2.50 g of Zn
Mass per mol = 2.50/molar mass of Zn = 2.50/65.38 = 0.0382 g/mol
There are two moles of ZnCl2 and total mass = 2*0.0382*molar mass of ZnCl2 = 2*0.0382*136.286 = 10.42 g
For 2 g of HCl
Mass per mol = 2/2*molar mass of HCl = 2/ (2*36.46) = 0.0274 g/mol
For the two moles of ZnCl2, mass produced = 2*0.0274*136.286 = 7.48 g
It can be noted that 2 g of HCl produced less amount of ZnCl and thus it is the limiting reagent.
B, Rocks are always being recycled into different forms.
