Answer:- 1.91*10^2^3Cl atoms.

Solution:- We have been given the grams of carbon tetrachloride and asked to calculate the number of atoms of chlorine. It is a three step conversion problem. In the first we convert the grams of carbon tetrachloride to moles of it. In second step we convert moles of carbon tetrachloride to moles of chlorine and in the third step we convert the moles of chlorine to atoms of chlorine.

For grams to mole conversion we need the molar mass of the compound. Molar mass of carbon tetrachloride is 153.82 grams per mol. If we look at the formula of carbon tetrachloride then four chlorine are present in it. It means 1 mol of carbon tetrachloride has four moles of chlorine. The calculations are as follows:

12.2gCCl_4(\frac{1molCCl_4}{153.82gCCl_4})(\frac{4molCl}{1molCCl_4})(\frac{6.02*10^2^3Clatoms}{1molCl})

= 1.91*10^2^3Cl atoms

So, there are 1.91*10^2^3Cl atoms in 12.2 grams of CCl_4 .

There are \boxed{1.91 \times {{10}^{23}}{\text{ atoms}}} of chlorine in 12.2 g of \text{CCl}_4.

Further Explanation:

The number of moles of \text{CCl}_4 is calculated by the following formula:

{\text{Moles of CC}}{{\text{l}}_{\text{4}}} = \dfrac{{{\text{Mass of CC}}{{\text{l}}_{\text{4}}}}}{{{\text{Molar mass of CC}}{{\text{l}}_{\text{4}}}}}  ...... (1)                                            

The mass of \text{CCl}_4 is 12.2 g.

The molar mass of \text{CCl}_4 is 153.82 g/mol.

Substitute these values in equation (1).

 \begin{aligned}{\text{Moles of CC}}{{\text{l}}_{\text{4}}} &= \frac{{{\text{12}}{\text{.2 g}}}}{{{\text{153}}{\text{.82 g/mol}}}}\\&= 0.0793{\text{ mol}}\\\end{aligned}

The number of units that are present in one mole of the substance is determined by Avogadro’s number. It has a numerical value of {\text{6}}{\text{.022}} \times {\text{1}}{{\text{0}}^{{\text{23}}}}\;{\text{units}}. These units can be electrons, atoms, molecules or ions, depending on the nature of the substance.

The formula of carbon tetrachloride \left( {{\text{CC}}{{\text{l}}_{\text{4}}}} \right) indicates that one mole of \text{CCl}_4 has four moles of Cl in it.

Therefore the number of moles of chlorine can be calculated as follows:

\begin{aligned}{\text{Moles of Cl}} &= \left( {0.0793{\text{ mol CC}}{{\text{l}}_4}} \right)\left( {\frac{{4{\text{ mol Cl}}}}{{1{\text{ mol CC}}{{\text{l}}_4}}}} \right)\\&= 0.31725{\text{ mol}}\\\end{aligned}  

One mole of Cl has 6.022\times10^{23} of Cl. Therefore the number of atoms of Cl can be calculated as follows:

\begin{aligned}{\text{Atoms of Cl}} &= \left( {\frac{{6.022 \times {{10}^{23}}{\text{ atoms}}}}{{1{\text{ mol}}}}} \right)\left( {0.31725{\text{ mol}}} \right)\\&= 1.9105 \times {10^{23}}{\text{ atoms}}\\&\approx 1.91 \times {10^{23}}{\text{ atoms}}\\\end{aligned}

Therefore there are 1.91 \times {10^{23}}{\text{ atoms}} of chlorine in 12.2 g of \text{CCCI}_4.

Which is the limiting reactant if we start with 30.0 g Al and 30.0 h O2​
lorasvet [3.4K]

Al

Explanation:

The limiting reactant will be Al:

        4Al + 3O₂ → 2Al₂O₃

The limiting reactant is the reactant in short supply in a chemical reaction.

     Given parameters:

  Mass of Al = 30g  Molar mass = 27g/mol

         Number of moles = \frac{mass}{molar mass} =  \frac{30}{27}

         Number of moles of Al = 1.111 mole

  Mass of O₂ = 30g, molar mass = 32g/mol

   Number of moles =  \frac{30}{32} = 0.94mol

In the reaction:

          4 moles of Al reacted with 3 moles of O₂

         1.11moles of Al will require \frac{1.11 x3}{4} = 0.83mole to react

But we have been given 0.94mole of O₂. This is more than required.

Therefore O₂ is in excess and Al is the limiting reactant.
