Consider that calcium metal reacts with oxygen gas in the air to form calcium oxide. suppose we react 7.43 mol calcium with 4.00

mol oxygen gas. determine the number of moles of calcium left over after the reaction is complete.

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.

The carbon-carbon double bond in ethene is ________ and ________ than the carbon-carbon triple bond in ethyne.
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

weaker and longer

Explanation:

Since there are 3 bonds in ethyne in comparision with the 2 bonds of ethyne between carbon atoms, they are attracted more to each other → the bond gets shorter . And since there are one more bond that supports the union → the bond gets stronger

thus the carbon-carbon double bond in ethene is weaker and longer than the carbon-carbon triple bond in ethyne

Where is the magnetic field of a bar magnet the strongest?
Alla [95]
The correct answer is A. The magnetic field is strongest at the north pole and the south pole of a bar magnet. At the poles, the magnetic field is equally strong while the force is weaker at the middle of the bar. The field lines are closely packed at each pole and it gets wider as the lines get further from the pole.

Why is Co2 a compound but H2 is not a compound
Alex_Xolod [135]
CO2, or Carbon Dioxide, is considered a compound because it is made up of more than one type of atom. H2 only contains one type of atom.
