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.

the mass of a 125 cm3 piece of material is 82.75 g. determine the density of this material . please explain
andre [41]
You would do 82.75 divided by 125 cm3 and get 0.6620 g/cm3 because to find density you mist divide mass and volume and grams is always mass and cm3 or mL is always volume. hope i helped!

In calculating the equilibrium constant for a reaction, the coefficients of the chemical equation are used as exponents for the
BartSMP [9]

Answer: The given statement is TRUE.

Explanation:

An equilibrium reaction is one in which rate of forward reaction is equal to the rate of backward reaction.

Equilibrium constant is defined as the ratio of the product of the concentration of products to the product of the concentration of reactants each raised to their stochiometric coefficient.

For example for the given equilibrium reaction;

2H_2O(g)\leftrightharpoons 2H_2(g)+O_2(g)

K_{eq}=\frac{[H_2]^2[O_2]}{[H_2O]^2}

Thus the given statement that in calculating the equilibrium constant for a reaction, the coefficients of the chemical equation are used as exponents for the factors in the equilibrium expression is True.

If the gold in the crown was mixed with a less-valuable metal like bronze or copper, how would that affect its density?
Sindrei [870]

Answer: If the gold in the crown was mixed with a less-valuable metal such as bronze of copper then this affects its density by making it to weigh even more and if it weighs more then it has less of chance to float. Observe: Drag each of the crowns into the liquid.

Your apple juice has a molarity of 3.4 M and a volume of 0.895 litres. What does a student have to do to decrease the molarity t
Jlenok [28]

Answer:

4.285 L of water must be added.

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, for this dilution-like problems, we need to figure out the final volume of the resulting solution so that we would be able to obtain the correct volume of diluent (water) to be added. In such a way, we can obtain the final volume, V2, as shown below:

M_1V_1=M_2V_2\\\\V_2=\frac{M_1V_1}{M_2}

Thus, by plugging in the initial molarity, initial volume and final molarity (0.587 M) we obtain:

V_2=\frac{3.4M*0.895 L}{0.587M}\\\\V_2=5.18L

It means we need to add:

V_{H_2O} ^{added}=5.18L-0.895L=4.285L

Of diluent water.

Regards!
