The limiting  reactant  when 5.6  moles   of aluminium react  with  6.2  moles   of water   is

      water( H2O)


      <u><em>Explanation</em></u>

The  balanced    equation is as below

2 Al +3 H2O  →  Al2O3  +3 H2

The mole ratio  of Al :Al2O3  is 2:1  therefore  the  moles  of  Al2O3

  = 5.6 x1/2  =  2.8  moles


The   mole  ratio  of H2O: Al2O3  is 3:1 therefore  the  moles  of Al2O3  produced

                 = 6.2  x1/3= 2.067  moles


since  H2O  yield  less  amount  of Al2O3 ,  H2O   is  the limiting reagent.

<u>Given:</u>

Moles of Al = 5.6 moles

Moles of H2O = 6.2 moles

<u>To determine:</u>

The limiting reagent

<u>Explanation:</u>

The chemical reaction is-

2Al + 3H2O → Al2O3 + 3H2

- Based on stoichiometry; 2 moles of Al forms 1 mole of Al2O3

Therefore, 5.6 moles of Al would give: 5.6 Al * 1 Al2O3/2 Al = 2.8 moles Al2O3

-Similarly; 3 moles of H2O forms 1 mole of Al2O2

Therefore, 6.2 moles of H2O would give: 6.2 H2O * 1 Al2O3/3 H2O = 2.07 moles Al2O3

Ans: Since the amount (moles) of Al2O3 formed from H2O is less, water is the limiting reagent.

Answer:

If a metal and metal solution react, the more reactive metal will displace the less reactive metal from solution. If the metal in solution you start with is formed from a more reactive metal than the metal to be added, no reaction will occur.

Which of the following solutions would have the highest osmotic pressure?
Gennadij [26K]

Answer:

Option d. 0.10 m Cr₂(SO₄)₃

Explanation:

Formula for the osmotic pressure is determined as:

π = M . R . T . i

So you have to take account the i (Van't Hoff factor, numbers of ions dissolved)

  • CH₄N₂O → 0.35 m

Urea is an organic compound, so the i value is 1

  • H₂O → The i is also 1
  • Zn(CH₃COO)₂ → 0.15 m

Zync acetate can be dissociated:

Zn(CH₃COO)₂  →  1Zn²⁺  + 2CH₃COO⁻

In this case, the i is 3. (you see, the stoichiometry of ions)

Cr₂(SO₄)₃ →  0.10 m

Chromium sulfate is dissociated:

Cr₂(SO₄)₃ →  2Cr³⁺  +  3SO₄⁻²

i = 5

BaI₂ → 0.16 m

BaI₂ →  1Ba²⁺  +  2I⁻

i = 3
