Leftover: approximately 11.73 g of sulfuric acid.

<h3>Explanation</h3>

Which reactant is <em>in excess</em>?

The theoretical yield of water from Al(OH)₃ is lower than that from H₂SO₄. As a  result,

  • Al(OH)₃ is the limiting reactant.
  • H₂SO₄ is in excess.

How many <em>moles</em> of H₂SO₄ is consumed?

Balanced equation:

2 Al(OH)₃ + 3 H₂SO₄ → Al₂(SO₄)₃ + 6 H₂O

Each mole of Al(OH)₃ corresponds to 3/2 moles of H₂SO4. The formula mass of Al(OH)₃ is 78.003 g/mol. There are 15 / 78.003 = 0.19230 moles of Al(OH)₃ in the five grams of Al(OH)₃ available. Al(OH)₃ is in excess, meaning that all 0.19230 moles will be consumed. Accordingly, 0.19230 × 3/2 = 0.28845 moles of H₂SO₄ will be consumed.

How many <em>grams</em> of H₂SO₄ is consumed?

The molar mass of H₂SO₄ is 98.076 g.mol. The mass of 0.28845 moles of H₂SO₄ is 0.28845 × 98.076 = 28.289 g.

How many <em>grams</em> of H₂SO₄ is in excess?

40 grams of sulfuric acid H₂SO₄ is available. 28.289 grams is consumed. The remaining 40 - 28.289 = 11.711 g is in excess. That's closest to the first option: 11.73 g of sulfuric acid.

Experimental
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

Error.

Explanation:

An experiment can be defined as an investigation which typically involves the process of manipulating an independent variable (the cause) in order to be able to determine or measure the dependent variable (the effect).

This ultimately implies that, an experiment can be used by scientists to show or demonstrate how a condition causes or gives rise to another i.e cause and effect, influence, behavior, etc in a sample.

Cause and effect can be defined as the relationship between two things or events in which an occurrence one (cause) leads to the occurrence of another (effect).

Experimental error is a factor that can arise from incorrect use of measuring tools or malfunctioning equipment such as thermometer, barometer, multimeter, voltmeter, ammeter, vernier caliper, etc. This error usually causes test results to be inaccurate, incorrect and as such leading to wrong experimental conclusions.

Also, one common example of an experimental error is the error due to parallax.

A 50.0g g sample of 16n decays to 12.5g in 14.4 seconds. What is its half life
mixas84 [53]
T is amount after time t 
<span>Ao is initial amount </span>
<span>t is time </span>
<span>HL is half life </span>

<span>log (At) = log [ Ao x (1/2)^(t/HL) ] </span>
<span>log (At) = log Ao + log (1/2)^(t/HL) </span>
<span>log (At) = log Ao + (t/HL) x log (1/2) </span>

<span>( log At - log Ao) / log (1/2) = t / HL </span>
<span>log (At/Ao) / log (1/2) = t / HL </span>

<span>HL = t / [( log (At / Ao)) / log (1/2) ] </span>

<span>HL = 14.4 s / [ ( log (12.5 / 50) / log (1/2) ] </span>

<span>HL = 14.4 s / 2 = 7.2 seconds </span>
