Answer:
a. Oxygen gas is limiting
Explanation:
hydrogen gas and oxygen gas are reacted to form water
2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O
the above balanced equation shows that 2 moles of H₂ is required for 1 mole of O₂
Given equal masses of H₂ and O₂
assuming 'x' gm for each, no. of moles of each gas =
no. of moles of H₂ = x/2 = 0.5x moles
no.of moles of O₂ = x/32 = 0.031x moles
This shows that no. of moles of O₂ is very less so O₂ will become the limiting reagent.
Answer: -
Acetic acid
Explanation: -
The intermolecular force of attraction depends on the strength or extent of Hydrogen bonding present in a substance.
Benzene and chloroform does not have hydrogen bonding being non polar molecule.
Water has hydrogen bonding being polar.
However acetic acid being most polar has the maximum hydrogen bonding.
Thus acetic acid has the strongest intermolecular forces of attraction.
Answer:
H₃PO₄ → 3H⁺ + PO₄³⁻
CaSO₄ → Ca²⁺ + SO₄²⁻
b. CaCl₂
Explanation:
When H₃PO₄ is dissolved in water, there are produced the H⁺ and PO₄³⁻ ions. The equation is:
H₃PO₄ → 3H⁺ + PO₄³⁻
In the same way, CaSO₄ is dissolved in:
CaSO₄ → Ca²⁺ + SO₄²⁻
b. Now, in a reaction of an acid (HCl) and a base (Ca(OH)₂), water, H₂O and a salt are produced:
2 HCl + Ca(OH)₂ → 2H₂O + Salt
The ions that are not present in the reaction are Cl⁻ and Ca²⁺, the salt is CaCl₂ and the balanced reaction is:
2 HCl + Ca(OH)₂ → 2H₂O + CaCl₂
