Answer: O_2 is the limiting reagent

Explanation:

To calculate the moles :

\text{Moles of solute}=\frac{\text{given mass}}{\text{Molar Mass}}    

\text{Moles of} H_2=\frac{10.0g}{2g/mol}=5.00moles

\text{Moles of} O_2=\frac{20.0g}{32g/mol}=0.625moles

The balanced chemical reaction is :

2H_2+O_2\rightarrow 2H_2O

According to stoichiometry :

1 moles of O_2 require = 2 moles of H_2

Thus 0.625 moles of O_2 will require=\frac{2}{1}\times 0.625=1.25moles of H_2

Thus O_2 is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of product and H_2 is the excess reagent as it is present more than the required amount.

White raven [17]
Following are the possible isomers of secondary alcohol and ketones for six carbon molecules. In order to distinguish between sec. alcohol and ketone we can simply treat the unknown compound with acidified Potassium Dichromate (VI) in the presence of acid. If with treatment with unknown compound the colour of K2Cr2O7 (potassium dichromate VI) changes from orange to green then it is confirmed that the unknown compound is sec. alcohol, or if no change in colour is detected then ketone is confirmed. This is because ketone can not be further oxidized while, sec. alcohol can be oxidized to ketones as shown below,

A car manufacturer needs to assemble the maximum number of cars using the following equation: 1 body frame + 4 wheels + 2 headli
larisa [96]

The wheels will be completely used up and  it is the limiting reactant in this case.

<h3>What is a limiting reactant?</h3>

The limiting reactant is the reactant that is completely used up in a reaction, and thus determines when the reaction stops.

  • 60 breaks will be used for 30 engines and 30 body frame
  • 80 wheels will be used for 20 engines and 20 body frame
  • 64 headlights will be used for 32 engines and 32 body frame

The wheels will be completely used up and  it is the limiting reactant in this case.

Which represents the correct equilibrium constant expression for the reaction below? Cu(s)+2Ag+(aq)&lt;-&gt;Cu2+(aq)+2Ag(s)
balu736 [363]
K(eq) = concentration of products/concentration of reactant         = [Cu+2] / [Ag+]^2 
Activity of pure solid and liquid is taken as 1.
Hence last option is correct.
Hope this helps, have a great day ahead!
I hope this helps you alot
