Answer: see figure attached and explanation below.
Explanation:
1) Chemical equation (given):
Fe + CuCl₂ → Cu + FeCl₂
2) ΔHf reactants: -256 kJ/mol (given)
3) ΔHf products: - 321 kJ/mol (given)
4) ΔH reaction = ΔHf products - ΔHf reactants = - 321 kJ/mol - (- 256 kJ/mol) = - 65 kJ/mol
5) Conclusion:
i) Since ΔHf of products is less (more negative) than ΔHf of reactants, the reaction is exhotermic: the reaction released energy, which is the reason why the products content less potential energy than the reactants.
ii) Then, the energy diagram is the typical one of an exothermic reaction: the products start a certain potential energy level, the energy incrases until reaching the activation energy (the energy barrier to form the activated complex) and then energy decreases until a level below the energy of the reactants.
iii) See the attached figure with such kind of diagram showing the products at a lower level than the reactans
Answer:
O2 is limiting reactant
Explanation:
To find the limiting reactant we need to convert the mass of each reactant to the moles using the formula weight. And, as 1 mole of C6H12O6 reacts with 6 moles of O2, we can know wich reactant will be over first (Limiting reactant) as follows:
<em>Moles C6H12O6:</em>
650g * (1mol/180.16g) = 3.608 moles C6H12O6
<em>Moles O2:</em>
650g * (1mol/32g) = 20.31 moles O2
Now, for a complete reaction of 3.608 moles of C6H12O6 are required:
3.608 moles C6H12O6 * (6mol O2 / 1mol C6H12O6) = 21.65 moles O2
As there are just 20.31 moles of O2,
<h3>O2 is limiting reactant</h3>
