Answer:

Mass = 11 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of Zn = 5 g

Mass of HCl = 50 g

Mass of hydrogen gas produced = 6 g

Mass of zinc chloride produced = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

Zn + 2HCl    →   ZnCl₂ + H₂

Number of moles of Zn:

Number of moles = mass / molar mass

Number of moles = 5 g / 65.38 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.08 mol

Number of moles of HCl :

Number of moles = mass / molar mass

Number of moles = 50 g / 36.5 g/mol

Number of moles = 1.4 mol

Now we will compare the moles of both reactant with zinc chloride.

              Zn           :           ZnCl₂

               1             :             1

              0.08       :        0.08

            HCl          :         ZnCl₂

              2            :           1

             1.4          :         1/2×1.4 =0.7 mol

The number of moles of zinc chloride produced by Zn are less so it will limiting reactant.

Mass of zinc chloride:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.08 mol × 136.3 g/mol

Mass = 11 g

Describe what happens to a carbon-11 atom when it undergoes positron emission.
atroni [7]

Answer:C11 -----^boron+positron

Explanation:the above reaction is nuclear reaction.

Positron emission causes the decrease in atomic number by one.

As in above example carbon-11is converted into boron isotop which has atomic number of 5.

What conclusion can you make about electrons and the periodic table?
kogti [31]

Answer:

The number of valence electrons can be known from the group that the element is in (except the lanthanides, actinides and groups 3-12).

Explanation:

Group 1 has 1 valence electron. Group 2 has 2 valence electrons. Group 13 has 3 valence electrons. Group 14 has 4, group 15 has 5, group 16 has 6, group 17 has 7, and group 18 has 8.

Group 18 are the noble gases which are stable.

Group 17 are the halogens and react well with the alkali metals.
