The balanced chemical equation for the above reaction is as follows;
2Ca + O₂ --> 2CaO
stoichiometry of Ca to O₂ is 2:1
this means that 2 mol of Ca reacts with 1 mol of O₂.
If O₂ is the limiting reactant, 
4 mol of O₂ should react with (4x2) - 8 mol of Ca
however only 7.43 mol of Ca is present. Therefore Ca is the limiting reactant.
7.43 mol of Ca reacts with - 7.43/2 = 3.715 mol of O₂
therefore there's excess O₂₂ remaining after the reaction
Since Ca is the limiting reactant, it is fully used up in the reaction and there is no Ca remaining after the reaction is completed.

4. When 732 grams of water was heated, it absorbed 1962 Joules of heat. The original temperature of the water was 45°C. What was
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

T_{final} =45.64C=final temperature

Explanation:

In the question specific heat of water is not given but we should know the value of that and it 4.18Jg∘C

Specific heat means how much heat is required to increase the temperature of 1 gram of substance that substance by 1∘C .

Equation between heat lost or gain and the change in temperature.

q=m⋅c⋅ΔT , where

q - the amount of heat

m - the mass of the sample

c - specific heat  of sample

ΔT - change in temperature

put all the given value into this ,

q=m\times c \times  \Delta  T

\Delta T=\frac{q}{mc} =\frac{1962}{732 \times 4.18}

\Delta T= 0.64C

T_{final} -T_{initial} =0.64C

T_{final} =45.64C=final temperature.

A. Acid rainfall will cause a decrease in oceanic surface temperatures.
laiz [17]

Answer:

Increased atmospheric carbon dioxide will cause increased ocean surface temperatures.

Explanation:

Greenhouse gases of which CO2 is a typical example are known to cause a gradual and steady increase in the surface temperature of the earth by trapping infrared rays close to the surface of the earth.

As the surface temperature of the earth rises, the surface temperature of the oceans rises also leading to the tendency towards hurricanes.

Hurricanes are violent storms which are known to form near the equator over warm ocean waters.

Hence, increased atmospheric carbon dioxide will cause increased ocean surface temperature which in turn increases the chances of the occurrence of hurricanes.

Which of the following is true about Oxygen (O), Sulfur (S) and Neon (Ne)? (Choose 3)
devlian [24]

Answer:

from the way I understand the question I think the answer is (B)

Explanation:

Because the distribution into shells of oxygen is 2,6 and in sulfur is 2,8,6 and oxygen has a 8th number of electrons and sulfur has the 16th number of electrons
