Answer:a)  11.34 g of ethane (C_2H_6) can be formed

b) C_2H_4 is the limiting reagent

c) 3.44 g of the excess reagent remains after the reaction is complete

Explanation:

To calculate the moles :

\text{Moles of solute}=\frac{\text{given mass}}\times{\text{Molar Mass}}    

1. \text{Moles of} H_2=\frac{4.21}{2}=2.10moles

2. \text{Moles of} C_2H_4=\frac{10.6}{28}=0.378moles

H_2(g)+C_2H_4(g)\rightarrow C_2H_6(g)

According to stoichiometry :

1 mole of C_2H_4 require 1 mole of H_2

Thus 0.378 moles of C_2H_4 will require=\frac{1}{1}\times 0.378=0.378moles  of H_2

Thus C_2H_4 is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of product and H_2 is the excess reagent.

moles of H_2 left = (2.10-0.378) = 1.72 moles

mass of H_2 left=moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=1.72moles\times 2g/mol=3.44g

According to stoichiometry :

As 1 mole of C_2H_4 give = 1 mole of C_2H_6

Thus 0.378 moles of C_2H_4 give =\frac{1}{1}\times 0.378=0.378moles  of C_2H_6

Mass of C_2H_6=moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=0.378moles\times 30g/mol=11.34g

Thus 11.34 g of ethane is formed.

a faucet is leaking water at a speed of 5 drops per minute. If 1 ml is equivalent to 10 drops, how many liters of water will be
nikdorinn [45]

Answer: 0.72 litres of water is wasted in one day.

Explanation:

First you need to find out how many minutes are in a day. Do this by multiplying the number of minutes in an hour (60) by the number of hours in a day (24). 24 x 60 = 1440. If the faucet is dripping at 5 drops per minute, then multiply 5 by the number of minutes in a day (1440) to see how many drops drip in one day. 5 x 1440 = 7200. Now we need to figure out how many mL fo water that is. if 10 drops is 1 mL, then we need to divide the total number of drops (7200) by 10. 7200 divided by 10 is 720. That means 720 mL of water is dripping per day. Finally, we must convert mL to litres. There are 1000 mL in one litre, so divide 720 by 1000. The final answer is 0.72

Group 17 is called the halogen family, and the group to its right is called the noble gases. How are these elements alike and ho
Vesnalui [34]

Explanation:

The halogen family and noble gases are similar in just one particular way, they are groups of non-metals. All members of these two groups are categorized as non-metals.

Here are some of the differences between them;

  • Halogens have 7 electrons in their outermost shell whereas noble gases have 8 electrons in theirs.
  • Halogens are highly reactive elements, noble gases are non-reactive.
  • Halogens are made up of electronegative elements where as noble gases are neither electropositive nor electronegative.
