There are no above options to choose from so I am giving an example of a X3Y2 formula which is Magnesium nitride, the formula is Mg3N2.
Answer:
Mass of water produced is 22.86 g.
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of hydrogen = 2.56 g
Mass of oxygen = 20.32 g
Mass of water = ?
Solution:
Chemical equation:
2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O
Number of moles of oxygen:
Number of moles = mass/ molar mass
Number of moles = 20.32 g/ 32 g/mol
Number of moles = 0.635 mol
Number of moles of hydrogen:
Number of moles = mass/ molar mass
Number of moles = 2.56 g/ 2 g/mol
Number of moles = 1.28 mol
Now we will compare the moles of water with oxygen and hydrogen.
O₂ : H₂O
1 : 2
0.635 ; 2×0.635 = 1.27
H₂ : H₂O
2 : 2
1.28 : 1.28
The number of moles of water produced by oxygen are less thus it will be limiting reactant.
Mass of water produced:
Mass = number of moles × molar mass
Mass = 1.27 × 18 g/mol
Mass = 22.86 g
Halogens can be characterized as :
1) High Electronegativity
2) Low melting & boiling points
3) Forms Ionic compounds
4) Non-metallic in nature
Hope this helps!
