Works by providing an alternative reaction pathway to the reaction product. the rate of the reaction is increased as this alternative route has a lower activation energy than the reaction route not mediated by the catalyst.

Determine the AMOUNT OF NO2, LIMITING REACTANT, AND THE AMOUNT AND NAME OF EXCESS REACTANT.
zepelin [54]

Answer:

balanced equation mole ratio 5 2 mol NO/1 mol O2

10.00 g O2 3 1 mol O2/32.00 g O2 5 0.3125 mol O2

20.00 g NO 3 1 mol NO/30.01 g NO 5 0.6664 mol NO

actual mole ratio 5 0.6664 mol NO/0.3125 mol O2 5 2.132 mol NO/1.000 mol O2

Because the actual mole ratio of NO:O2 is larger than the balanced equation mole

ratio of NO:O2, there is an excess of NO; O2 is the limiting reactant.

Mass of NO used 5 0.3125 mol O2 3 2 mol NO/1 mol O2 5 0.6250 mol NO

0.6250 mol NO 3 30.01 g NO/1 mol NO 5 18.76 g NO

Mass of NO2 produced 5 0.6250 mol NO2 3 46.01 g NO2/1 mol NO2 5 28.76 g NO2

Excess NO 5 20.00 g NO 2 18.76 g NO 5 1.24 g N

A sample of methane occupies a volume of 174.0 mL at 25 C and exerts a pressure of 1030.0 mmHg if the volume of the gas is allow
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

The pressure will be 0,37 atm.

Explanation:

We use the Boyle Mariotte´s formula,where for a given mass of gas, at constant temperature, the pressure and temperature vary inversely proportionally. We see here that the initial and final temperature does not vary (298K).

We convert the unit Celsius into Kelvin (0 ° C = 273K) and the unite mmHg into atm (760mmHg=1 atm):

25°C= 25+273=298K   ; (1060mmHgx 1 atm)/760mmHg)=1,39 atm.

We convert unit of volume from ml to L: 174/1000=0,174L and 650/1000=0,650L

P1xV1= P2xV2

1,39 atm x 0,174L =P2 x0,650L

P2= (1,39 atm x 0,174L)/0,650L= 0,37 atm

What role does heat energy from the sun play influencing ocean currents
alexandr1967 [171]

The sun heats up the atmosphere at the equator. The dense water sinks under and forms deep water masses under the ocean current. Then it gets wind due to the air current and this brings currents at the surface if the ocean.

Which is least likely to be reduced? <br> A. Zn^2+ <br> B. Fe^3+ <br> C. Cu^2+ <br> D. Fe^2+
alekssr [168]

A. Zn²⁺

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Cations of several elements

Required

The least to be reduced

Solution

If we look at the voltaic series:

<em>Li-K-Ba-Ca-Na-Mg-Al-Mn- (H2O) -Zn-Cr-Fe²⁺-Cd-Co-Ni-Sn-Pb- (H) -Cu-Hg-Fe³⁺-Ag-Pt-Au </em>

The electrode which is easier to reduce than the hydrogen (H2) electrode has a positive sign (E red= +) and is located to the right of the voltaic series (right of H)

The electrode which is easier to oxidize than the hydrogen (H2) electrode and is difficult to experience reduction has a negative sign (E red= -) and is located to the left of the voltaic series (left of H)

Or you can look at the standard reduction potential value of the metals in the answer options, and the most negative reduction E° value which will be difficult to reduce.

The Zn metal is located far left of the other metals in the answer choices, so it is the most difficult to reduce
