Answer:

The limiting reagent is the O₂

Explanation:

We can think, this reaction

2O₂(g) + H₂(g) + S(s)  →  H₂SO₄

Mole of each = Mass / molar mass

6 g / 32 g/m = 0.187 mole O₂

4g / 2 g/m = 2 mole H₂

5g / 32.06 g/m = 0.156 mole S

Ratio between reactants is 2:1:1, 1:2:1, 1:1:2

For 2 mole of O₂, I need to react 1 mol of H₂ and 1 mol of S

0.187 mole of O₂, I need (the half)

0.093 mole of H₂ and 0.093 mole of S

For 1 mole of H₂, I need to react 2 mole of O₂ and 1 mol of S

2 mole of H₂, I need (the double of O₂ and the same for S)

4 mole of O₂ ; 2 mole of S

For 1 mol of S, I need to react 1 mol of H₂ and 2 mole of O₂

0.156 mole I need the same amount for H₂ and the double for O₂

0.156 mole of H₂ and 0.312 mole of O₂

In both cases, I can't make react, all the mass of oxygen, so this is the limiting reagent.

You wish to prepare a buffer consisting of acetic acid and sodium acetate with a total acetic acetate plus acetate concentration
vovangra [49]

<u>Ans: Acetic acid = 90.3 mM and Sodium acetate = 160 mM</u>

Given:

Acetic Acid/Sodium Acetate buffer of pH = 5.0

Let HA = acetic acid

A- = sodium acetate

Total concentration [HA] + [A-] = 250 mM ------(1)

pKa(acetic acid) = 4.75

Based on Henderson-Hasselbalch equation

pH = pKa + log[A-]/[HA]

[A-]/[HA] = 10^(pH-pKa) = 10^(5-4.75) = 10^0.25 = 1.77

[A-] = 1.77[HA] -----(2)

From (1) and (2)

[HA] + 1.77[HA] = 250 mM

[HA] = 250/2.77 = 90.25 mM

[A-] = 1.77(90.25) = 159.74 mM
