<u>Answer:</u> The limiting reagent is iron (II) chloride and the mass of sodium chloride formed is 21.2 grams

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}      .....(1)

  • <u>For iron (II) chloride:</u>

Given mass of iron (II) chloride = 23 g

Molar mass of iron (II) chloride = 126.8 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Moles of iron (II) chloride}=\frac{23g}{126.8g/mol}=0.181mol

  • <u>For sodium phosphate:</u>

Given mass of sodium phosphate = 41 g

Molar mass of sodium phosphate = 164 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Moles of sodium phosphate}=\frac{41g}{164g/mol}=0.25mol

The chemical equation for the reaction of iron (II) chloride and sodium phosphate follows:

3FeCl_2+2Na_3PO_4\rightarrow 6NaCl+Fe_3(PO_4)_2

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

3 moles of iron (II) chloride reacts with 2 moles of sodium phosphate

So, 0.181 moles of iron (II) chloride will react with = \frac{2}{3}\times 0.181=0.1206mol of sodium phosphate

As, given amount of sodium phosphate  is more than the required amount. So, it is considered as an excess reagent.

Thus, iron (II) chloride is considered as a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of product.

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

3 moles of iron (II) chloride produces 6 mole of sodium chloride.

So, 0.181 moles of iron (II) chloride will produce = \frac{6}{3}\times 0.181=0.362moles of sodium chloride.

Now, calculating the mass of sodium chloride from equation 1, we get:

Molar mass of sodium chloride = 58.5 g/mol

Moles of sodium chloride = 0.362 moles

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

0.362mol=\frac{\text{Mass of sodium chloride}}{58.5g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of sodium chloride}=(0.362mol\times 58.5g/mol)=21.2g

Hence, the limiting reagent is iron (II) chloride and the mass of sodium chloride formed is 21.2 grams

USPshnik [31]

Answer:

454.3 g.

Explanation:

  • From the given data:

1.0 mol of CaO liberates → – 64.8 kJ.

??? mol of CaO liberates → - 525  kJ.

∴ The no. of moles needed = (1.0 mol)(- 525 kJ)/(- 64.8 kJ) = 8.1 mol.

<em>∴ The no. of grams of CaO needed = no. of moles x molar mass</em> = (8.1 mol)(56.077 g/mol) = <em>454.3 g.</em>

Match each statement with a layer of the atmosphere. There will be two statements for each layer.
LuckyWell [14K]

<u>The troposphere: </u>

H. This layer can have thunderstorms or clear, sunny skies.

A. The biosphere interacts most with this layer. 

<u>The stratosphere:</u>

B. It is the second layer from Earth's surface. 

G. Winds are strong and steady in this layer. 

<u>The mesosphere:</u>

E. It is heated by the ozone layer beneath it. 

D. This layer is where most meteor showers occur. 

<u>The thermosphere :</u>

F. It contains the ionosphere and exosphere. 

C. It contains layers of single, unmixed gas. 

<u>Explanation:</u>

Depending on the Earth's  temperature the atmosphere can be separated into layers. The troposphere, the stratosphere, the mesosphere and the thermosphere are those layers. The lowest layer is named as Troposphere (0-10 km from the Earth outer surface), it comprises about 75% of the atmosphere's total air and nearly most the water vapor.

Stratosphere (10-30) includes much of the surface ozone. The change in height temperature arises as this ozone absorbs ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun. The temperature in Mesosphere (30-50 Km) declines again with height, hitting a minimum of about -90 ° C at the "mesopause." Above this thermosphere (50-400 Km) is settled which is a area where temperatures rise with height once again. The penetration of intense  UV and X-ray radiation from the sun induces this temperature rise.

Consider three gases: Ar, SF6, and Cl2. If 50.0 grams of these gases are placed in each of three identical containers, which con
adoni [48]
The ideal gas law:
pV=nRT \Rightarrow p=\frac{nRT}{V}
p - pressure, n - number of moles, R - the gas constant, T - temperature, V - volume

The volume and temperature of all three containers are the same, so the pressure depends on the number of moles. The greater the number of moles, the higher the pressure.
The mass of gases is 50 g.

Ar \\&#10;M \approx 39.948 \ \frac{g}{mol} \\&#10;n=\frac{50 \ g}{39.948 \ \frac{g}{mol}} \approx  1.25 \ mol \\ \\&#10;SF_6 \\&#10;M \approx 146.06 \ \frac{g}{mol} \\&#10;n=\frac{50 \ g}{146.06 \ \frac{g}{mol}} \approx 0.34 \ mol \\ \\&#10;Cl_2 \\&#10;M=70.9 \ \frac{g}{mol} \\&#10;n=\frac{50 \ g}{70.9 \ \frac{g}{mol}} \approx 0.71 \ mol

The greatest number of moles is in the container with Ar, so there is the highest pressure.

UNO [17]

Answer:

a) 0.15

Explanation:

A concentração de sacarose é 0,15 g / l no etanol. O Brasil está produzindo etanol em grandes quantidades que é usado como combustível em veículos e indústrias. Este etanol é produzido a partir da cultura da cana-de-açúcar e o Brasil é o segundo maior produtor mundial com cerca de 34,45 bilhões de litros em 2019. Os Estados Unidos da América e o Brasil produzem cerca de 84% do etanol mundial.
