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.

why is the ability of apple snails to survive an increase in the salinity of water considered an adaptation
masya89 [10]

Apple snails inhabit a wide range of ecosystems from swamps, ditches and ponds to lakes and rivers. The majority of the species prefer lentic water above streaming water and only a few species have adapted to rivers with strong current.


<span>Breathing through the siphon when submerged (<span>Pomacea canaliculata</span>).</span>

The lung/gills combination in apple snails reflects their adaptation to habitats with oxygen poor water. This is often the case in swamps and shallow waters. The without thelung they would completely depend on their gills, which would decrease their ability to survive. 
Another advantage of air breathing in combination with a shell door (operculum) is the ability to survive periods of drought often common in these habitats during the dry season.

A neutral atom has the atomic number of 10 and the atomic mass is 22 amu. what is the number of neutrons and electrons for this
Leviafan [203]

Hey there!

This atom has 10 protons.

If this atom has an atomic mass of 22, that means the sum of protons and neutrons is 22.

p + n = 22

p = 10

Which makes this true:

10 + n = 22

Subtract 10 from each side to solve for n, the number of neutrons.

n = 12

An atom that has the atomic number of 10 and an atomic mass of 22 has 12 neutrons.

Hope this helps!
