Answer:

S is the limiting reagent.

Explanation:

To find the limiting reactant we must first write the balanced chemical reaction. It must be correctly balanced so that we can find the proper mole ratios.

2 S (s) + 3 O2 (g) + 4 NaOH (aq) → 2 Na2SO4 (aq) + 2 H2O (l)

After this we will convert our measurements to moles. For mass we do this by dividing by the molar mass.

2g ÷ 32.06 = 0.06238mol S

3g ÷ 32.00 = 0.09375mol O₂

Now that we have the moles of each of the reactants, we can multiply them by their mole ratio with a reactant.

0.06238mol S × 2/2 = 0.06238mol H2O

0.09375mol O₂ × 2/3 = 0.06250mol H2O

S is our limiting reagent because it makes the smaller amount of moles.

Calculate the mole fraction of the total ions in an aqueous solution prepared by dissolving 0.400 moles of MgBr2 in 850.0 g of w
diamong [38]
 <span>moles water = 850.0 g / 18.02 g/mol=47.2 
moles Mg2+ = 0.400 
moles Cl- = 2 x 0.400 = 0.800 
moles ions = 0.400 + 0.800= 1.2 
mole fraction ions = 1.2 / 1.2 + 47.2 =0.0248</span>

A piece of gold wire has a diameter of .175cm. How much will precisely 1.00 x 10^5 cm of the wire weigh
Alona [7]
The main information we have to use here is the density of gold. From literature, the density of gold at room temperature is 19.32 g/cm³. To determine the mass, let's calculate the volume first. A wire is in the shape of a cylinder. Thus, the volume would be

V = πd²h/4
V = π(0.175 cm)²(1×10⁵ cm)/4
V = 2,405.28 cm³

Density = mass/volume
19.32 g/cm³ = Mass/2,405.28 cm³
Mass = 46,470 g gold wire

Draw the structural formula for 1 bromo 3 phenyl 5 heptyne
MrRissso [65]

See Figure 4 below.

1. Draw a 7-carbon chain and number the carbon atoms (<em>Figure 1</em>).

2. Insert a triple bond between atoms 5 and 6 (<em>Figure 2</em>).

3. Attach a phenyl group to atom 3 (<em>Figure 3</em>).

4. Attach a Br to atom 1 (Figure 4).

And you have your structure.

<em>Note</em>: The C≡C triple bond takes <em>priority</em> in the naming, so we must number the chain from the other end. The correct name is

<em>7-bromo-5-phenylhept-2-yne </em>(all one word).

((2.0265-2.02)/2.0265) x 100.00
lianna [129]

Answer 0.5

when reporting calculations from sig figs, report the number of sig figs in the least accurate measurement

so

((2.0265-2.02)/2.0265) x 100.00

((2.0265/2.0265) - (2.02/2.03)) X 100.00

(1.0000 -0.995) X 100.00

0.005 X 100.00

0.5
