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.

5. Give one advantage of KIO3 as primary standard.​
alexdok [17]

Answer:

one advantage of KLO3 as a primary standard is that it is used to know concentration of a solution.

Explanation:

The reaction provides confirmation that the solution is at a specific concentration. Primary standards are often used to make standard solutions (a solution with a precisely known concentration

What is the pH of a solution made by mixing 30.00 mL 0.10 M HCl with 40.00 mL of 0.10 M KOH? Assume that the volumes of the solu
nirvana33 [79]

Answer:

pH = 12.15

Explanation:

To determine the pH of the HCl and KOH mixture, we need to know that the reaction is  a neutralization type.

HCl  +  KOH  →  H₂O  +  KCl

We need to determine the moles of each compound

M = mmol / V (mL) → 30 mL . 0.10 M = 3 mmoles of HCl

M = mmol / V (mL) → 40 mL . 0.10 M = 4 mmoles of KOH

The base is in excess, so the HCl will completely react and we would produce the same mmoles of KCl

HCl  +  KOH  →  H₂O  +  KCl

3 m       4 m                       -

             1 m                      3 m

As the KCl is a neutral salt, it does not have any effect on the pH, so the pH will be affected, by the strong base.

1 mmol of KOH has 1 mmol of OH⁻, so the [OH⁻] will be 1 mmol / Tot volume

[OH⁻] 1 mmol / 70 mL = 0.014285 M

- log [OH⁻] = 1.85 → pH = 14 - pOH → 14 - 1.85 = 12.15
