.5 mol of A will be left over since 1.5 mol of A will be used for every 3 mol of B due to the 2:1 ratio established by the formula.

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is 0.50 mol A left over.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Excess reactant is defined as the reactant which is present in excess in the reaction and does not predict the formation of product.

Limiting reactant is defined as the reactant which is present in limiting amount and which limits the formation of products.

For the given chemical reaction:

A+2B\rightarrow AB_2

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of B is reacting with 1 mole of A.

So, 3 moles of B will react with = \frac{1}{2}\times 3=1.5mol of A.

As, the given moles of A is more than the required moles. So, it is present in excess and is considered as an excess reagent.

Amount of excess reagent left (A) = 2 - 1.5 = 0.5 moles

Thus, the correct answer is 0.50 mol A left over.

Which statement describes the reactions in an electrochemical cell
34kurt

Answer & explanation:

Summary on electrochemical cells and redox reactions:

Electrochemical cells (or batteries) can be defined as devices capable of transforming chemical energy into electrical energy through spontaneous reactions of redox, in which electron transfer occurs.

Redox it is a chemical reaction in which there is the occurrence of oxidation and reduction of atoms of substances (chemical species) present in the process.

<u>Oxidation</u> is the loss of electrons by an atom of a chemical species, while <u>reduction</u> is the gain of electrons by an atom of a chemical species.

Thus, during an oxirreduction reaction, electrons move from the species that loses them towards the species that will receive them. This "movement" results in the formation of an electric current (or electrical energy) as occurs with batteries, for example.
