The reactant in a chemical reaction that limits the amount of product that can be formed.

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!

Planets close to a star will have __ orbital velocities than planets farther from a star.

Naddika [18.5K]

Answer:

The closer a planet is to the Sun, the stronger the Sun's gravitational pull on it, and the faster the planet moves. The farther it is from the Sun, the weaker the Sun's gravitational pull, and the slower it moves in its orbit.

Having studied the data for patterns and trends, you should now be able to draw

avanturin [10]

Answer:

The situation given here is imaginary such that the life of Rock has to be found using the half-life of the element lokium that has been found inside the rock.

Half-life of any material is the amount of time taken by that particular material to decay. Now the amount of lokium found in rock can show after how many half-lives this amount has been left out.

The time elapsed will be log (L) atoms X half-life.

The equilibrium constant Kp for the reaction (CH3),CCI (g) = (CH3),C=CH, (g) + HCl (g) is 3.45 at 500. K. (5.00 x 10K) Calculate

Karolina [17]

<u>Answer:</u> The value of $K_p$ for the reaction is 6.32 and concentrations of $(CH_3)_2C=CH,HCl\text{ and }(CH_3)_3CCl$ is 0.094 M, 0.094 M and 0.106 M respectively.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Relation of $K_p$ with $K_c$ is given by the formula:

$K_p=K_c(RT)^{\Delta ng}$

where,

$K_p$ = equilibrium constant in terms of partial pressure = 3.45

$K_c$ = equilibrium constant in terms of concentration = ?

R = Gas constant = $0.0821\text{ L atm }mol^{-1}K^{-1}$

T = temperature = 500 K

$\Delta n_g$ = change in number of moles of gas particles = $n_{products}-n_{reactants}=2-1=1$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$3.45=K_c\times (0.0821\times 500)^{1}\\\\K_c=\frac{3.45}{0.0821\times 500}=0.084$

The equation used to calculate concentration of a solution is:

$\text{Molarity}=\frac{\text{Moles}}{\text{Volume (in L)}}$

Initial moles of $(CH_3)_3CCl(g)$ = 1.00 mol

Volume of the flask = 5.00 L

So, $\text{Concentration of }(CH_3)_3CCl=\frac{1.00mol}{5.00L}=0.2M$

For the given chemical reaction:

$(CH_3)_3CCl(g)\rightarrow (CH_3)_2C=CH(g)+HCl(g)$

Initial: 0.2 - -

At Eqllm: 0.2 - x x x

The expression of $K_c$ for above reaction follows:

$K_c=\frac{[(CH_3)_2C=CH]\times [HCl]}{[(CH_3)_3CCl]}$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$0.084=\frac{x\times x}{0.2-x}\\\\x^2+0.084x-0.0168=0\\\\x=0.094,-0.178$

Negative value of 'x' is neglected because initial concentration cannot be more than the given concentration

Calculating the concentration of reactants and products:

$[(CH_3)_2C=CH]=x=0.094M$

$[HCl]=x=0.094M$

$[(CH_3)_3CCl]=(0.2-x)=(0.2-0.094)=0.106M$

Hence, the value of $K_p$ for the reaction is 6.32 and concentrations of $(CH_3)_2C=CH,HCl\text{ and }(CH_3)_3CCl$ is 0.094 M, 0.094 M and 0.106 M respectively.
