Answer:

              3.568 g of H₂O

Solution:

The Balance Chemical Equation is as follow,

                                   2 H₂  +  O₂     →      2 H₂O

Step 1: Calculate the Limiting Reagent,

According to Balance equation,

               4.04 g (2 mol) H₂ reacts with  =  32 g (1 mol) of O₂

So,

                   0.40 g of H₂ will react with  =  X g of O₂

Solving for X,

                       X  =  (0.40 g × 32 g) ÷ 4.04 g

                       X  =  3.17 g of O₂

It means 0.4 g of H₂ requires 3.17 g of O₂, while we are provided with 3.2 g of O₂ which is in excess. Therefore, H₂ is the limiting reagent and will control the yield of products.

Step 2: Calculate amount of Water produced,

According to equation,

                4.04 g (2 mol) of H₂ produces  =  36.04 g (2 mol) of H₂O

So,

                        0.40 g of H₂ will produce  =  X moles of H₂O

Solving for X,

                      X  =  (0.40 g × 36.04 mol) ÷ 4.04 g

                      X  =  3.568 g of H₂O

Which of the following sets represents a pair of isotopes?
son4ous [18]
The correct option is A,
Isotopes are atoms of an element, which have the same number of protons but different number of neutrons in the nucleus of the atom. Thus, isotopes have the same atomic number but different mass number.
Looking at the options given above, you will discover that Chlorine which is given in option A is correct. Both type of chlorine has the same atomic number, which is 17, but they have different atomic masses, the atomic mass of the first one is 35 while that of the second one is 37.<span />
