The reactant in a chemical reaction that limits the amount of product that can be formed.
koban [17]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

A limiting reactant is the reactant in a reaction that is done reacting first, because there are less moles of it than are needed for a full reaction with the other compound or compounds.

Hope this helps!

One liter of a buffer composed of 1.2 m hno2 and 0.8 m nano2 is mixed with 400 ml of 0.5 m naoh. what is the new ph? assume the
enyata [817]
Answer is: 3,4
Chemical reaction: HNO₂ + NaOH → NaNO₂ + H₂O.
c₀(HNO₂) = 1,2 M = 1,2 mol/dm³.
c₀(NaNO₂) = 0,8 M = 0,8 mol/dm³.
V₀(HNO₂) = V₀(NaNO₂)  = 1 dm³ = 1 L.
c₀(NaOH) = 0,5 M = 0,5 mol/dm³.
n₀(HNO₂)= 1,2 mol/dm³ · 1 dm³ = 1,2 mol.
n₀(NaNO₂) = 0,8 mol/dm³ · 1 dm³ = 0,8 mol.
V(NaOH) = 400 mL · 0,001 dm³/mL = 0,4 dm³.
n₀(NaOH) = c₀(NaOH) · V₀(NaOH).
n₀(NaOH) = 0,5 mol/dm³ · 0,4 dm³ = 0,2 mol.
n(HNO₂) = 1,2 mol - 0,2 mol = 1 mol.
n(NaNO₂) = 0,8 mol + 0,2 mol = 1 mol.
c(HNO₂) = 1 mol ÷ 1,4 dm³ = 0,714 mol/dm³.
c(NaNO₂) = 1 mol ÷ 1,4 dm³ = 0,714 mol/dm³.
pH = pKa + log (c(HNO₂) / c(NaNO₂)).
pH = 3,4 + log (0,714 mol/dm³ / 0,714 mol/dm³) = 3,4.

How can you separate sand and water without filter paper​
Liula [17]

Answer:

through Decantation

Explanation:

Decantation: Decantation is pouring out of upper clear layer of liquid into another container to separate two immiscible liquids or to separate different substances in a suspension mixture.

Therefore, we could use decantation once the sand particles settle down by gently pouring the water into another container. Once the water is transfered, we'll be left with sand in the bottom of the first container.

Hope that helps...

The atomic weight of iodine is less than the atomic weight of tellurium. However, Mendeleev listed iodine after tellurium in his
QveST [7]

Explanation :

As we know that Mendeleev arranged the elements in horizontal rows and vertical columns of a table in order of their increasing relative atomic weights.

He placed the elements with similar nature in the same group.

According to the question, the atomic weight of iodine is less than the atomic weight of tellurium. So according to this, iodine should be placed before tellurium in Mendeleev's tables. But Mendeleev placed iodine after tellurium in his original periodic table.

However, iodine has similar chemical properties to chlorine and bromine. So, in order to make iodine queue up with chlorine and bromine in his periodic table, Mendeleev exchanged the positions of iodine and tellurium.

As we know that the positions of iodine and tellurium were reversed in Mendeleev's table because iodine has one naturally occurring isotope that is iodine-127  and tellurium isotopes are tellurium-128 and tellurium-130.

Due to high relative abundance of tellurium isotopes gives tellurium the greater relative atomic mass.
