Radon is a colorless, odorless, radioactive gas. It is also a leading cause of lung cancer. Ventilation is essential.

When 0.200 grams of Al reacts with 15.00 mL of a 0.500 M copper(II) chloride solution, how many moles of solid Cu would be produ

Naddik [55]

When The balanced equation is:
2Al + 3CuCl2 ⇒3 Cu + 2AlCl3
So, we want to find the limiting reactant:
1- no. of moles of 2Al = MV/n = (Wt * V )/ (M.Wt*n*V) = Wt / (M.Wt *n)

where M= molarity, V= volume per liter and n = number of moles in the balanced equation.
by substitute:
∴ no. of moles of 2Al = 0.2 / (26.98 * 2)= 0.003706 moles.
2- no.of moles of 3CuCl2= M*v / n = (0.5*(15/1000)) / 3= 0.0025 moles.
So, CuCl2 is determining the no.of moles of the products.
∴The no. of moles of 3Cu = 0.0025 moles.
∴The no.of moles of Cu= 3*0.0025= 0.0075 moles.
and ∵ amount of weight (g)= no.of moles * M.Wt = 0.0075 * M.wt of Cu
= 0.0075 * 63.546 =0.477 g

Alka-seltzer is an antacid that is dissolved in water before use. for an experiment, three tablets of alka-seltzer are dissolved

Naddika [18.5K]

Alka-seltzer in an antacid that contains a mixture of sodium bicarbonate and citric acid. When the tablet is dissolved in water, the reactants which are in solid form in tablet become aqueous and react with each other.

During this reaction, Carbon Dioxide gas is evolved which causes the reaction mixture to fizz. The equation is given below.

$NaHCO_{3}\ (aq) + H_{3}C_{6}H_{5}O_{7} (aq)\rightarrow Na_{3}C_{6}H_{5}O_{7}(aq)+ CO_{2}(g)+H_{2}O (l)$

Rate of the above reaction is affected by the Temperature.

As the temperature increases , the rate of the reaction increases. This happens because at higher temperature, the collisions between reacting species are more which result in formation of product in less time. This increases the rate of reaction.

We have been given equal volumes of water for each beaker. But the temperature of beaker c is 80°C which is the highest temperature. That means the reaction in beaker c is fastest.

Whereas beaker a is at lowest temperature (30°C) , therefore the reaction in beaker a would be slowest .

Therefore the answer that correctly orders the reaction rates from fastest to slowest reaction is beaker c > beaker b > beaker a
