Answer:

HCl is the limiting reactant. It will completely be consumed (1.37 moles)

Option D is correct

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of Zinc (Zn) = 50.0 grams

Mass of Hydrogen chloride (HCl) = 50.0 grams

atomic mass Zn = 65.38 g/mol

Molar mass HCl = 36.46 g/mol

Step 2: The balanced equation

Zn + 2HCl → ZnCl2 + H2

Step 3: Calculate moles

Moles = mass / molar mass

Moles Zn = 50.0 grams / 65.38 g/mol

Moles Zn = 0.764 moles

Moles HCl = 50.0 grams / 36.46 g/mol

Moles HCl = 1.37 moles

Step 4: Calculate limiting reactant

For 1 mol Zn we need 2 moles HCl to produce 1 mol ZnCl2 and 1 mol H2

HCl is the limiting reactant. It will completely be consumed (1.37 moles)

Zn is in excess. There will react 1.37/2 = 0.685 moles

There will remain 0.764 -0.685 = 0.079 moles

Consider the following reaction: C6H6 + O2 \longrightarrow ⟶ CO2 + H2O 39.7 grams of C6H6 are allowed to react with 105.7 g of O

Ivenika [448]

Answer:

116.3 grCO2

Explanation:

1st - we balance the equation so that it finds the same amount of elements of the product side and of the reagent side

C6H6 +15/2 O2⟶ 6CO2 +3 H2O

2nd - we calculate the limiting reagent

39.2gr C6H6*(240grO2/78grC6H6)=120 grO2

we don't have that amount of oxygen so this is the excess reagent and oxygen the limiting reagent

3rd - we use the limiting reagent to calculate the amount of CO2 in grams

105.7grO2*(264grCO2/240grO2)=116.3 grCO2

Question 2 Describe the energy in coal and the way in which it’s converted to electrical energy.

Scilla [17]

Answer:

Its rich carbon content gives coal most of its energy content. When coal is burned in the presence of air or oxygen, heat energy is released. This energy can then be converted to other forms of useful energy. Coal-fired plants produce electricity by burning coal in a boiler to produce steam. The steam produced, under tremendous pressure, flows into a turbine, which spins a generator to create electricity.

Hope this helps! :)

Part A

Roman55 [17]

These are two questions and two answers

Question 1.

Answer:

7.33 × 10 ⁻³ c

Explanation:

1) Data:

a) m = 9.11 × 10⁻³¹ kg

b) λ = 3.31 × 10⁻¹⁰ m

c) c = 3.00 10⁸ m/s

d) s = ?

2) Formula:

The wavelength (λ), the speed (s), and the mass (m) of the particles are reltated by the Einstein-Planck's equation:

λ = h / (m.s)

h is Planck's constant: h= 6.626×10⁻³⁴J.s

3) Solution:

Solve for s:

s = h / (m.λ)

Substitute:

s = 6.626×10⁻³⁴J.s / ( 9.11 × 10⁻³¹ kg × 3.31 × 10⁻¹⁰ m) = 2.20 × 10 ⁶ m/s

To express the speed relative to the speed of light, divide by c = 3.00 10⁸ m/s

s = 2.20 × 10 ⁶ m/s / 3.00 10⁸ m/s = 7.33 × 10 ⁻³

Answer: s = 7.33 × 10 ⁻³ c

Question 2.

Answer:

2.06 × 10 ⁻³⁴ m.

Explanation:

1) Data:

a) m = 45.9 g (0.0459 kg)

b) s = 70.0 m/s

b) λ = ?

2) Formula:

Macroscopic matter follows the same Einstein-Planck's equation, but the wavelength is so small that cannot be detected:

λ = h / (m.s)

h is Planck's constant: h= 6.626×10⁻³⁴J.s

3) Solution:

λ = h / (m.s)

Substitute:

λ = 6.626×10⁻³⁴J.s / ( 0.0459 kg × 70.0 m/s) = 2.06 × 10 ⁻³⁴ m

As you see, that is tiny number and explains why the wave nature of the golf ball is undetectable.

Answer: 2.06 × 10 ⁻³⁴ m.
