Answer:

The answer to your question is Al₂O₃

Explanation:

Data

mass of Al₂O₃ = 3.87 g

mass of H₂O = 5.67 g

Balanced chemical reaction

                Al₂O₃  +  H₂O   ⇒   2Al(OH)₃

- Calculate the molar mass

Al₂O₃ = (27 x 2) + (16 x 3) = 102 g

H₂O = (1 x 2) + 16 = 18

- Calculate the theoretical and experimental proportion

Theoretical proportion = 102/ 18 = 4.67

Experimental proportion = 3.87/5.67 = 0.68

- Conclusion

As the experimental proportion diminishes, we conclude that the limiting reactant is Al₂O₃.

Answer:

If aluminum oxide is placed in a container containing water, the reaction would not occur at all. So there would be no limiting reactant to begin with if there is no reaction.

Explanation:

This is because aluminum oxide unlike the oxides of the alkaline earth metals is insoluble in water and hence cannot mix to form products with water because the oxide ions are held very strongly to the solid lattice structure of the aluminum.

Energy Sources (6 points) A. Sort the types of energy into the "renewable" and "nonrenewable" columns. (1 point)
denpristay [2]

Explanation:

(A)   Renewable resources are defined as the resources that can be used again and again.

For example, wind, hydroelectric energy, geothermal etc.

On the other hand, resources which cannot be used again and again and which cannot be replaced by natural means are known as non-renewable resources.

For example, coal, petroleum etc are all non-renewable resources.

Therefore, given options are distinguished as follows.

Renewable energy : Wind, Hydroelectric, Geothermal, Biomass, and Solar.

Non-renewable energy : Coal, Petroleum, Natural gas.

(B)    Fuels which decompose for a long period of time and which arise from old life forms are known as fossil fuels.

When fossil fuels burn in the presence of air that is, combustion of fossil fuels give carbon dioxide and water.

A sample of chlorine containing isotopes of mass numbers 35 and 37 was analysed in a mass-spectrometer. How many peaks correspon
Zolol [24]
Three peaks corresponding to Cl+2 will be recorded. The peaks are for isotope 35, both 35 and 37 and for isotope 37. Mass spectrometer has the ability to detect and separate isotopes, even those differing by a single atomic mass unit. When chlorine isotopes are analysed by mass spectrometer, either peak M or M+2 can be obtained. The intensity ratio in the isotope pattern depends on the natural abundance of the isotopes.
