Answer: hydrochloric acid

Explanation: 2HCl+Ca\rightarrow CaCl_2+H_2

As can be seen from the chemical equation, 2 moles of hydrochloric acid react with 1 mole of calcium.

According to mole concept, 1 mole of every substance weighs equal to its molar mass.

Thus 2\times 36.5=73 g of of hydrochloric acid reacts with 40 g of calcium.

100 g of hydrochloric acid react with=\frac{40}{73}\times 100=54.79 gof calcium

Thus HCl is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of product and calcium is the excess reagent as (100-54.79)=45.21 g is left unreacted.

The balanced chemical reaction is:

2HCl + Ca = CaCl2 + H2

We are given the amount of the reactants to be used for the reaction. These values will be the starting point of our calculations.

100 g HCl ( 1 mol HCl / 36.46 g HCl ) = 2.74 mol HCl

100 g Ca ( 1 mol Ca / 40.08 g ) = 2.08 mol Ca

From the reaction, the mole ratio of the reactants is 2:1 where every 2 moles of hydrochloric acid, 1 mole of calcium is required. Therefore, the limiting reactant for this case is calcium.

a vehicle accelerates with 0.4 m/s. calculate tue time taken by the vehicle to increase its speed from 20m/s to 40m/s.​
Grace [21]

Answer:

\huge\boxed{\sf t = 50 \ seconds}

Explanation:

<h3><u>Given data:</u></h3>

Acceleration = a = 0.4 m/s²

Initial Speed = V_i = 20 m/s

Final Speed = V_f = 40 m/s

<h3><u>Required:</u></h3>

Time = t = ?

<h3><u>Formula:</u></h3>

\displaystyle a =\frac{V_f-V_i}{t}

<h3><u>Solution:</u></h3>

Rearranging formula for t

\displaystyle t =\frac{V_f-V_i}{a} \\\\t = \frac{40-20}{0.4} \\\\t = \frac{20}{0.4} \\\\\boxed{t = 50 \ seconds}\\\\\rule[225]{225}{2}

1. 90.0 mL of distilled water is added to a 10.0mL sample of 0.150mol/L sodium
aniked [119]

Answer: dilute

Explanation:

A concentrated solution which is used to prepare solutions of lower concentrations by diluting it with addition of water.

A dilute solution is one which contains lower concentration.

Using Molarity equation:

M_1 =concentration of stock solution = 0.150 mol/L

V_1 = volume of stock solution = 10.0 ml

M_2 = concentration of dilute solution = ?

V_2 = volume of dilute solution = (10.0+90.0) ml = 100.0 ml

0.150\times 10.0=M_2\times 100.0

M_2=0.015mol/L

As the concentration is less than the original concentration, the solution is termed as dilute.
