Answer:
The limiting reactant = hydrogen
The theoretical yield = 1404 grams

Explanation:
1- getting the limiting reagent:
The reaction between hydrogen and oxygen to form water can be expressed using the following equation:
2 H₂ + O₂ ...........> 2 H₂O

From the balanced equation, we can note that:
2 moles of hydrogen are required to react with 1 mole of oxygen. This means that the ratio is 2:1 which means that for a certain number of oxygen moles, twice that number of hydrogen moles is required.

This means that:
For 78 moles of oxygen , 78*2 = 156 moles of hydrogen are required.
Since only 78 moles of hydrogen are present, therefore, hydrogen is our limiting reagent.
This means that the reaction would stop once the amount of hydrogen is consumed. This also means that we would base all our further calculations on the amount of hydrogen present.

2- getting the theoretical yield:
Again, the balanced equation is:
2 H₂ + O₂ ...........> 2 H₂O
From this equation, we can note that:
2 moles of hydrogen produce 2 moles of water.
This means that 78 moles of hydrogen would also produce 78 moles of water.

The theoretical yield will be equivalent to the mass of 78 moles of water.
mass of water = number of moles * molar mass
mass of water = 78 * 18
mass of water = 1404 grams


Hope this helps :)

inna [77]

Answer:

The correct answer is B. exogenous

Explanation:

Let us try to describe exogenous and endogenous variables an exogenous variable value is influenced only by factors outside a model or system and is forced onto the model, while a change in an exogenous variable is known as an exogenous change. Also an endogenous variable is one whose value is influenced only by the system or model under study.

How many moles of sodium carbonate na2co3 are contained by 57.3 g of sodium carbonate
yan [13]
There are 0.54 moles of sodium carbonate are contained by  57.3 grams of sodium carbonate.

we can calculate number of moles in a compound by dividing number of grams of compound by the molar mass of the compound.
molar mass of sodium carbonate = 105.987 g/mol
now, 57.3 / 105.987 = 0.54 moles
