Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A limiting reagent is defined as a reagent that completely gets consumed in a chemical reaction. A limiting reagent limits the formation of products.

For example, we have given 5 mol of A and the reaction is 2A + 4B \rightarrow 2AB

Whereas when 4 mol B will react with 2 mol of A. Hence, 8 mol of B will react with 4 mol A as follows.

                        \frac{2}{4} \times 8 = 4 mol

As, the given moles of A is more than the required moles. Thus, it is considered as an excess reagent.

Hence, B is a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of products.

Thus, we can conclude that limiting reactant is the term used to describe the reactant that is used up completely and controls the amount of product that can be produced during a chemical reaction.

How was or wasn't the scientific method followed in this experment
Andreas93 [3]

Answer:

The best answer would be:

C. The scientific method was followed because the experiment tested the hypothesis and produced reliable results.

Explanation:

The purpose of an experiment is to test the hypothesis. It is true that having an experimental group and a control group was following the scientific method but the data gathering and documentation was also part of the scientific method. So the best answer would be C.

Writing the question is not necessary. It is merely part of forming a hypothesis. The scientific method does not require many scientists to perform the experiment, but it does require that the experiment be repeatable, so it can be tested again.

It is composed of an alloy that is 90% Platinum and 10% Iridium; having a density of 21.186 g/cm3. What is the volume of the Sta
oksian1 [2.3K]
The alloy has a density of 21.186g/cc. So for a kilogram or 1000 grams/21.186 g/cc= 45.7 cc. So the answer is 45.7 cc of the allow to make up a kilogram which shows that the density of the allow can be used to calculate the volume of a larger mass ie the kilogram.

Calculate number of CO2 molecules in 0.250 mol of co2
Anna11 [10]
Carbon's molar mass is 12gm

Oxygen's molar mass is 16gm

So CO2 molar mass is 44gm

Hence 1mol of CO2 contains 44gm
There 1/4mol of CO2 contains 44/4=11gm.

Hope it helps
