Answer:

- Iron (III) oxide is the limiting reactant.

- m_{Al_2O_3}=319.9gAl_2O_3

- m_{Fe}=350.4gFe

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, we consider the following reaction:

2Al + Fe_2O_3 \rightarrow Al_2O_3 +2Fe

Thus, for identifying the limiting reactant we should compute the available  moles of aluminium in 268 g:

n_{Al}=268gAl*\frac{1molAl}{26.98gAl} =9.93molAl

Next, we compute the moles of aluminium that are consumed by 501 grams of iron (III) oxide via their 2:1 molar ratio:

n_{Al}^{consumed}=501gFe_2O_3*\frac{1molFe_2O_3}{159.69gFe_2O_30}*\frac{2molAl}{1molFe_2O_3}=6.27molAl

Thus, we notice there are less consumed moles of aluminium than available, for that reason, it is in excess; therefore, the iron (III) oxide is the limiting reactant.

Moreover, the theoretical mass of aluminium oxide is:

m_{Al_2O_3}=6.27molAl*\frac{1molAl_2O_3}{2molAl} *\frac{101.96gAl_2O_3}{1molAl_2O_3} =319.9gAl_2O_3

And the theoretical mass of iron is:

m_{Fe}=6.27molAl*\frac{2molFe}{2molAl} *\frac{55.845 gFe}{1molFe} =350.4gFe

Best regards.

Indicate which solution in each pair has the lower pH. Your response should be a four letter "word". The first letter should be
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

bcfh

Explanation:

HClO₄ reacts with water thus:

HClO₄ + H₂O → H₃O⁺ + ClO₄⁻

That means HClO₄ produce H₃O⁺ that decreases pH. That means the higher concentration of HClO₄ decreases pH. Thus, lower pH will be:

b) 0.2 M HClO4

The reaction of NaClO₄ is:

NaClO₄ + H₂O → OH⁻ + HClO₄ + Na⁺

The higher concentration of NaClO₄ the higher production of OH⁻ that increase pH, that means the lower concentration of NaClO₄ the lower pH, thus, the answer is:

<em>c) 0.1 M NaClO or</em>

HF reacts with water thus;

HF ⇄ H⁺ + F⁻

The equilibrium constant is:

k = [H⁺] [F⁻] / [HF] = 3,5x10⁻⁴

For HNO₂ equilibrium is:

HNO₂ ⇄ H⁺ + NO₂⁻

k = [H⁺] [NO₂⁻] / [HNO₂] = 4,5x10⁻⁴

As k value is higher for HNO₂, the concentration of H⁺ will be higher in this system doing the HNO₂ with the lower pH.

f) 0.1 M HNO2

NaOH is a strong base that produce OH⁻ that increase pH, pure water is neutral, thus, the lowe pH is:

h) pure water

A) Calculate the osmotic pressure difference between seawater and fresh water. For simplicity, assume thatall the dissolved salt
never [62]

Answer:

a)  Δπ = 1.264 atm

b) W = 128 joules

c)  ΔH >> W  ( a factor greater than 17,000 )

Explanation:

a) The osmotic pressure, π , is determined by :

π = nRT/V, where n= moles of solute

                          R= 0.0821 Latm/kmol

                          T = 300 K

calling π(sw) osmotic pressure for  for sea water and π (fw) for fresh water,

salinity of sea water = 3.5 g / 1L water   (assuming only NaCl for the salts)

salinity of fresh water = 0.5 parts per thousand (range: 0- 0.5 ppt)

πsw = (3.5 g/58.44 g/mol) (0.0821 Latm/Kmol) (300 K ) /1 L = 1.475 atm

πfw = (0.5 g/58.44 g/mol) (0.0821 Latm/Kmol) (300 K ) /1 L = 0.211 atm

d water = 1 g/cm³

Δ π = (1.475 - 0.211) = 1.264 atm

b) W = Δπ V = 1.426 atm x 1L = 1.43 L-atm

1 L-atm = 101.33 j

W =  101.33 j/ Latm x  1.43 Latm = 128 joules

c) ΔH = Q₁ + nΔH vap, where

            Q₁  = heat required to bring the solution from 300 K to boiling, 373 K

            ΔH vap = heat of vaporization

Q = mCΔT = 1000 g x 4.186 j x 73 K = 305.6 j = 0.3056 kj

ΔH vap = (1000 g/ 18 g/mol ) 40.7 kj/mol = 2,261 kj

ΔH =  0.3056 kj + 2,261 kj = 2,261.3 kj

Note = Q << ΔH vap and we could have neglected it.

This result shows why nobody talks about evaporation of sea water to produce fresh water ΔH >> W

A combustion reaction occurs between one molecule of methane (CHa) and two molecules of oxygen (O2).
SCORPION-xisa [38]

The total number of atoms make up the products :

D) 1 carbon, 4 hydrogen, and 4 oxygen

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Complete combustion of Hydrocarbons with Oxygen will produce CO₂ and H₂O compounds.

If O₂ is insufficient there will be incomplete combustion produced by CO and H and O

Hydrocarbon combustion reactions (especially alkanes)

For combustion of methane (CH₄) and two molecules of oxygen (O₂).

\tt CH_4+2O_2\rightarrow CO_2+2H_2O

The number of atoms make up the products

CO₂ : 1 carbon, 2 oxygen

2H₂O : 4 hydrogen , 2 oxygen
