<h3>Answer:</h3>
The mass of excessive water (H₂O) is 40.815 kg
<h3>Explanation:</h3>The Equation for the reaction is;
Li₂O(s) + H₂O(l) → 2LiOH(s)
From the question;
Mass of water removed is 80.0 kg
Mass of available Li₂O is 65.0 kg
We are required to calculate the mass of excessive reagent.
<h3>Step 1: Calculating the number of moles of water to be removed</h3>Moles = Mass ÷ Molar mass
Molar mass of water = 18.02 g/mol
Mass of water = 80 kg (but 1000 g = 1kg)
= 80,000 g
Therefore;
= 4.44 × 10³ moles
<h3>Step 2: Moles of Li₂O available </h3>Moles = mass ÷ molar mass
Mass of Li₂O available = 65.0 kg or 65,000 g
Molar mass Li₂O = 29.88 g/mol
Moles of Li₂O = 65,000 g ÷ 29.88 g/mol
= 2.175 × 10³ moles Li₂O
<h3>Step 3: Mass of excess reagent </h3>From the equation; Li₂O(s) + H₂O(l) → 2LiOH(s)
1 mole of Li₂O reacts with 1 mole of water to form two moles of LiOH
The ratio of Li₂O to H₂O is 1:1
- Thus, 2.175 × 10³ moles of Li₂O will react with 2.175 × 10³ moles of water.
- However, the number of moles of water to be removed is 4.44 × 10³ moles but only 2.175 × 10³ moles will react with the available Li₂O.
- This means, Li₂O is the limiting reactant while water is the excessive reagent.
Therefore:
Moles of excessive water = 4.44 × 10³ moles - 2.175 × 10³ moles
= 2.265 × 10³ moles
Mass of excessive water = 2.265 × 10³ moles × 18.02 g/mol
= 4.0815 × 10⁴ g or
= 40.815 kg
Thus, the mass of excessive water is 40.815 kg
Answer:- B-
Explanations:- Sharing of electrons takes place between non metals and the bond formed by the sharing of electrons is known as covalent bond. In first choice we only have a zinc metal and so no sharing of electrons would be possible here.
In third choice we have NaCl. Na is a metal and Cl is a non metal. The property of metals is to transfer its valence electrons to the non metal and the bond formed is known as ionic bond. So, third choice is also not correct.
In choice B we have sulfate ion that has sulfur and oxygen atoms and both of these are non metals. So, sharing of electrons is present here between the S and O atoms and covalent bonds are formed.
So, choice B- is the right answer.
