The following Balanced Reaction will take place:
Zn + 2HCl → ZnCl₂ + H₂
In the question, we have 2 moles of Zinc and 3 moles of HCl for this reaction
<u>Amount of HCl required to completely react with 2 moles of Zn:</u>
Since we need 2 moles of HCl for every mole of Zn, we will need 2(2) = 4 moles of HCl for every 2 moles of Zn
<u>Identifying the Limiting Reagent:</u>
But we are only given 3 moles of HCl where we need 4 moles to completely react.
So, since HCl is in less amount, it is the Limiting Reagent
Answer:
Percentage lithium by mass in Lithium carbonate sample = 19.0%
Explanation:
Atomic mass of lithium = 7.0 g; atomic mass of Chlorine = 35.5 g; atomic mass of carbon = 12.0 g; atomic mass of oxygen = 16.0 g
Molar mass of lithium chloride, LiCl = 7 + 35.5 = 42.5 g
Percentage by mass of lithium in LiCl = (7/42.5) * 100% = 16.4 % aproximately 16%
Molar mass of lithium carbonate, Li₂CO₃ = 7 * 2 + 12 + 16 * 3 =74.0 g
Percentage by mass of lithium in Li₂CO₃ = (14/74) * 100% = 18.9 % approximately 19%
Mass of Lithium carbonate sample = 2 * 42.5 = 85.0 g
mass of lithium in 85.0 g Li₂CO₃ = 19% * 85.0 g = 16.15 g
Percentage by mass of lithium in 85.0 g Li₂CO₃ = (16.15/85.0) * 100 % = 19.0%
Percentage lithium by mass in Lithium carbonate sample = 19.0%
Answer:
Substitution mutation
Explanation:
A substitution mutation is a type of mutation in which one or more nucleotide base is replaced by another in a sequence. This will result in the replacement of one or more amino acid in the amino acid sequence.
This is the case in this question where the original amino acid sequence was given as: Leucine – Alanine – Glycine – Leucine. After mutation, the following mutated sequence was produced: Leucine – Alanine – Valine – Leucine.
As illustrated above, one would notice that there is replacement of GLYCINE amino acid by VALINE in the mutated sequence, hence, it is an example of SUBSTITUTION MUTATION.
Answer:
A simple example of decomposition reaction is hydrolysis of water where a water molecule is broken down into hydrogen and oxygen gas.
Answer:
1. H2O is a covalent bond, NaCl is an ionic bond
2. H2O uses hydrogen bonding (H-bonds), NaCl does not
3. H2O is liquid at room temperature. NaCl is solid.
