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

In a redox reaction, how does the total number of electrons lost by the oxidized substance compare to the total number of electr
snow_lady [41]
The answer is (2) equal to. In redox reactions, you can't just lose electrons somewhere. If an electrons is lost by one, it must be gained by another. Hence, the importance of balancing redox reactions.

Arrange the sublevels in ascending order by the number of electrons they can contain. p sublevel s sublevel d sublevel f subleve
inn [45]

Electronic configuration of the atom describes  the arrangemnet of electrons in different shells and subshells ( sublevels).

Now , there are 4 types of sublevels: s, p , d and f . These sublevels have orbital which are spaces with high probability of having an electron and each orbital can have maximum 2 electrons.

Therefore,

s-sublevel has 1 orbital - it can have maximum 2 electrons.

p-sublevel has 3 orbitals - it can have maximum 6 electrons

d-sublevel has 5 orbitals - it can have maximum 10 electrons

f-sublevel has 7 orbitals - it can have maximum 14 electrons.

Hence, the acsending order of sublevels in terms of maximum number of electrons is:

<h2>s < p < d < f</h2>

The majority of the elements essential to life are found in what part of the periodic table?
IRINA_888 [86]
The rows in the top third - This group consists of elements like Sodium, Magnesium, Potassium and Calcium on the right and Chlorine, Carbon, Nitrogen and Oxygen on the left.
Sodium and Chlorine are components of salt, a very important compound of our blood, essential for transferring electrical signals from the brain to the rest of the body and vice versa. Calcium is the building block of our bones, while Magnesium and potassium ensure proper functioning of our organs.

How many milliliters of sodium metal, with a density of 0.97 g/mL, would be needed to produce 53.2 grams of hydrogen gas in the
olchik [2.2K]
The balanced chemical reaction is:

<span>2Na + 2H2O → 2NaOH + H2
</span><span>
We first use the amount of hydrogen gas to be produced and the molar mass of the hydrogen gas to determine the amount in moles to be produced. Then, we use the relation from the reaction to relate H2 to Na.

53.2 g H2 ( 1 mol / 2.02 g ) ( 2 mol Na / 1 mol H2 ) ( 22.99 g / 1 mol ) = 1210.96 g Na

1210.96 g Na ( 1 mL / 0.97 g ) = 1248.41 mL Na needed</span>
