If 4.0 g of hydrogen and 10.0 g of oxygen are mixed according to the equation 2 h2 + o2 → 2 h2o, which is the limiting reagent?

From the equation, we can see that the molar ratio between hydrogen and oxygen is:
2 : 1

Next, we determine the moles of hydrogen and oxygen that are actually present using:
moles = mass / Mr

Hydrogen:
moles = 4 / 2 = 2

Oxygen:
10/32 = 0.3125

Therefore, it is evident that the moles of oxygen present, 0.3125, are less than those that are required for 2 moles of hydrogen, which is 1. This makes oxygen the limiting reactant, which is the one that limits the completion of a reaction.

A body of mass 5kg has momentum of 125kgm/s. find the velocity of the body in motion.
borishaifa [10]

Explanation:We have momemtum = mass X velocity

    p = mv

    OR, p/m = v

    v = (125kg m/s)25kg

    v = 125/25 m/s

       v = 5 m/s

Charcoal found under a stone at Stonehenge, England, has a carbon-14 activity that is 0.60 that of new wood. How old is the char
kenny6666 [7]

Charcoal with a carbon-14 activity of 0.60 compared to new wood has less than 5,730 years.

<h3>What is a radioactive isotope?</h3>

A radioactive isotope is an element in nature that emit radioactivity in a given period of time (e.g., the half-life for C14 is equal to 5,730 years).

Radioactive dating is a technique to measure the age of an element by measuring its radioactive activity.

In conclusion, charcoal with a carbon-14 activity of 0.60 compared to new wood has less than 5,730 yr.

How many chlorine atoms are there in 12.2 g of ccl4? How many chlorine atoms are there in 12.2 of ? 4.77×1022 atoms?
mash [69]

Answer:- 1.91*10^2^3Cl atoms.

Solution:- We have been given the grams of carbon tetrachloride and asked to calculate the number of atoms of chlorine. It is a three step conversion problem. In the first we convert the grams of carbon tetrachloride to moles of it. In second step we convert moles of carbon tetrachloride to moles of chlorine and in the third step we convert the moles of chlorine to atoms of chlorine.

For grams to mole conversion we need the molar mass of the compound. Molar mass of carbon tetrachloride is 153.82 grams per mol. If we look at the formula of carbon tetrachloride then four chlorine are present in it. It means 1 mol of carbon tetrachloride has four moles of chlorine. The calculations are as follows:

12.2gCCl_4(\frac{1molCCl_4}{153.82gCCl_4})(\frac{4molCl}{1molCCl_4})(\frac{6.02*10^2^3Clatoms}{1molCl})

= 1.91*10^2^3Cl atoms

So, there are 1.91*10^2^3Cl atoms in 12.2 grams of CCl_4 .

Which of the following observations would indicate that a material is a pure substance?
Ira Lisetskai [31]
<span>The answer to the question is the option C. it cannot be physically broken down into different types of atoms. This means that the material is an element, which is a pure substance. Because an element is a pure substance that is formed by one only type of atoms. For example, gold is an element and all its atoms are of the same type. That is also true for any of the 118 elements of the periodic table. Compounds (other kind of pure substances) can be broken down into molecules (which contain different kind of atoms, but always in the same proportion) and mixtures (non pure substances) have different kind of substances.</span>
