How to find limiting reagent

2 answers:

8 0

When there is not enough of one reactant in a chemical reaction, the reaction stops abruptly. To figure out the amount of product produced, it must be determined reactant will limit the chemical reaction (the limiting reagent) and which reactant is in excess (the excess reagent). One way of finding the limiting reagent is by calculating the amount of product that can be formed by each reactant; the one that produces less product is the limiting reagent.

The reagent which limits the reaction is called limiting reagents.

____

For example:- N2+3H2gives 2NH3.so here nitrogen limits the reaction.

If 650. grams of C6H12O6 (FW 180.16) reacts with 650. grams of O2 (FW 32.00) in cellular respiration: C6H12O6 6 O2 --> 6 CO2

cestrela7 [59]

Answer:

O2 is limiting reactant

Explanation:

To find the limiting reactant we need to convert the mass of each reactant to the moles using the formula weight. And, as 1 mole of C6H12O6 reacts with 6 moles of O2, we can know wich reactant will be over first (Limiting reactant) as follows:

<em>Moles C6H12O6:</em>

650g * (1mol/180.16g) = 3.608 moles C6H12O6

<em>Moles O2:</em>

650g * (1mol/32g) = 20.31 moles O2

Now, for a complete reaction of 3.608 moles of C6H12O6 are required:

3.608 moles C6H12O6 * (6mol O2 / 1mol C6H12O6) = 21.65 moles O2

As there are just 20.31 moles of O2,

<h3>O2 is limiting reactant</h3>

25 g of a compound is added to 500 mL of water if the freezing point of the resulting solution is

vlabodo [156]

Answer:

a) 119 g/mol

Explanation:

-We apply the formula for freezing point depression to obtain the molality of the solution:

$\bigtriangleup T_f=K_fm, \ \ K_f=1.36\textdegree C/m\\\\\therefore m=\frac{\bigtriangleup T_f}{K_f}\\\\=\frac{0.57\textdegree C}{1.36\textdegree C}\\\\=0.4191\ mol/Kg\\\\$

#We use the molality above to calculate the molar mass:

$m=\frac{0.4191\ mol}{1\ Kg}=\frac{25\ g}{0.5\ Kg}\\\\\therefore 1 \ mol=\frac{25\ g}{0.5\ Kg}\times\frac{1\ Kg}{ 0.4191}\\\\=119.3033\approx 119\ g/mol$

Hence, the molar mass of the compound is 119 g/mol

#5.) Explain why the rock cycle is referred to as a "cycle".

Natalka [10]

The rock cycle is referred to as cycle because it repeats over and over again. The definition of cycle is a series of events that are regularly related in the same order. So with the rock cycle they stay in the same order and repeat.
Hope this helps :)
