Answer : The mass of excess reactant will be left over is 4.03 g and mass of Cu(NO_3)_2  is 34.2 g.

Solution : Given,

Mass of Cu = 9.85 g

Mass of AgNO_3 = 31.0 g

Molar mass of Cu = 64 g/mole

Molar mass of AgNO_3 = 170 g/mole

Molar mass of Cu(NO_3)_2 = 188 g/mole

First we have to calculate the moles of Cu and AgNO_3.

\text{ Moles of }Cu=\frac{\text{ Mass of }Cu}{\text{ Molar mass of }Cu}=\frac{9.85g}{64g/mole}=0.154moles

\text{ Moles of }AgNO_3=\frac{\text{ Mass of }AgNO_3}{\text{ Molar mass of }AgNO_3}=\frac{31.0g}{170g/mole}=0.182moles

Now we have to calculate the limiting and excess reagent.

The balanced chemical reaction is,

Cu+2AgNO_3\rightarrow Cu(NO_3)_2+2Ag

From the balanced reaction we conclude that

As, 2 mole of AgNO_3 react with 1 mole of Cu

So, 0.182 moles of AgNO_3 react with \frac{0.182}{2}=0.091 moles of Cu

From this we conclude that, Cu is an excess reagent because the given moles are greater than the required moles and AgNO_3 is a limiting reagent and it limits the formation of product.

Moles of remaining excess reactant = 0.154 - 0.091 = 0.063 moles

Now we have to calculate the mass of excess reactant will be left over.

\text{ Mass of }Cu=\text{ Moles of }Cu\times \text{ Molar mass of }Cu

\text{ Mass of }Cu=(0.063moles)\times (64g/mole)=4.03g

Now we have to calculate the moles of Cu(NO_3)_2

From the reaction, we conclude that

As, 2 mole of AgNO_3 react to give 1 mole of Cu(NO_3)_2

So, 0.182 moles of AgNO_3 react to give \frac{0.182}{2}=0.091 moles of Cu(NO_3)_2

Now we have to calculate the mass of Cu(NO_3)_2

\text{ Mass of }Cu(NO_3)_2=\text{ Moles of }Cu(NO_3)_2\times \text{ Molar mass of }Cu(NO_3)_2

\text{ Mass of }Cu(NO_3)_2=(0.182moles)\times (188g/mole)=34.2g

Therefore, the mass of Cu(NO_3)_2  is 34.2 grams.

The balanced chemical reaction:

<span>Cu + 2AgNO3 = Cu(NO3)2 + 2Ag
</span>
We are given the amount of the reactants to be used for the reaction. These values will be the starting point of our calculations.

9.85 g Cu ( 1 mol Cu / 63.55 g Cu ) = 0.15 mol Cu
31.0 g AgNO3 ( 1 mol AgNO3 / 169.87 g AgNO3 ) = 0.18 mol AgNO3

The limiting reactant is AgNO3.

0.18 mol AgNO3 ( 1 mol Cu(NO3)2 / 2 mol AgNO3 ) (187.56 g / 1 mol) =16.88 g Cu(NO3)2

0.15 mol Cu - 0.18 mol AgNO3 ( 1 mol Cu / 2 mol AgNo3) = 0.06 mol Cu excess

<span>0.06 mol Cu ( 63.55 g Cu / 1 mol Cu ) = 3.81 g Cu excess</span>

A mole of Big Macs stacked would reach from the earth to the moon and back how many times?
OLga [1]
A mol=6.02*10^23
so
distance from earth to moon is 230,100 miles
1 big mac is about 2 inches
1 mile=5280 feet=63360inches

230,100 times 63360=14,579,136,000 inches is distance
6.02 times 10^23 times 2=x times 14,579,136,000
divide both sides by 2
6.02 times 10^23=x times 7,289,568,000
divide both sides by 6.02
10^23=x times 1210891694.35159
divide both sides by  1210891694.35159

An isotope of yttrium has 39 protons and 59 neutrons. what is the atomic mass of that isotope?
Charra [1.4K]
We can define atomic mass the total of number of protons and number of neutrons in an atom or isotope.
<span>So when an isotope of yttrium has 39 protons and 59 neutrons, its atomic mass is equal to;
number of protons + number of neutrons = 39 + 59 = 98</span>

What is the molarity of solution that is 5.50 percentage by mass oxalic acid and has a density of 1.024 g/ml
Y_Kistochka [10]

Answer:

0.6257 M is the molarity of solution that is 5.50 percentage by mass oxalic acid.

Explanation:

Mass percentage of oxalic acid = 5.50%

This means that in 100 grams of solution there are 5.50 grams of oxalic acid.

Mass of solution , m = 100

Volume of the solution = V

Density of the solution = d = 1.024 g/mL

V=\frac{m}{d}=\frac{100 g}{1.024 g/mL}=97.66mL

V = 97.66 mL = 0.09766 L

(1 mL = 0.001 L)

Moles of oxalic acid = \frac{5.50 g}{90 g/mol}=0.06111 mol

Molarity=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution in L}}

The molarity of the solution :

=\frac{0.06111 mol}{0.09766  L}=0.6257M

0.6257 M is the molarity of solution that is 5.50 percentage by mass oxalic acid.
