Answer:
Pentacarbon heptasilicide.
Explanation:
In order to name the following compound, we need to identify whether it is molecular or ionic.
Molecular compounds consist of non-metal atoms, while ionic compounds would have metal cations in their composition.
In the given compound, 
, we have two non-metals, carbon and silicon, meaning we should follow the molecular compound naming rules. The rules involve using prefixes to state the number of individual atoms.
The two prefixes required here are 'penta' for 'five' to indicate 5 carbon atoms present and 'hepta' for 'seven' to indicate 7 silicon atoms present.
The first part of the name would be pentacarbon (notice that the standard name for the first element is used). The second part would be heptasilicide (notice that the second atom would have an ending of -ide followed by the standard beginning of silicon).
Answer is: both reactions
are exothermic.
<span>
In exothermic reactions, heat is released and enthalpy of reaction is less than
zero (as it show second chemical reaction).
According to Le Chatelier's principle when the reaction
is exothermic heat is included as a product (as it show first
chemical reaction).</span>
Answer:
Explanation:
Two moles of magnesium (Mg) and five moles of oxygen (O2) are placed in a reaction vessel. When magnesium is ignited, it reacts with oxygen. What is the limiting reactant in this experiment?
Mg + O2 → MgO (unbalanced)
first, balance the equation
2Mg +O2-------> 2MgO
two magnesium atoms react with one diatomic oxygen molecule
there is a 1:1 ratio of magnesium to oxygen atoms
but we have 2 moles of magnesium atoms and 2X5 = 10 moles of oxygen atoms
the lesser magnesium LIMITS the amount of product we can make, so it is the LIMITING REAGENT.
