Will lead (Pb) react with HgSO4?

Chemistry

Answer:

Explanation:

The electrochemical series can be used to check if a particular element has a greater activity than the other. Firstly, on the electrochemical series, it can be seen that lead is at a higher position compared to mercury. All things being equal, it will show a higher activity than mercury and hence can knock it off its salt.

Although it is the Overall standard electrode potential that tells us if a reaction is feasible or not, we can use the activity series to quickly discern if the reaction is possible or not. The overall standard electrode potential of both is positive which makes the reaction to be feasible and hence lead can display mercury off its salt

If 2.0 mol of Zn is mixed with 3.0 mol of HCl, which reactant will be limiting?

Soloha48 [4]

The following Balanced Reaction will take place:

Zn + 2HCl → ZnCl₂ + H₂

In the question, we have 2 moles of Zinc and 3 moles of HCl for this reaction

Amount of HCl required to completely react with 2 moles of Zn:

Since we need 2 moles of HCl for every mole of Zn, we will need 2(2) = 4 moles of HCl for every 2 moles of Zn

Identifying the Limiting Reagent:

But we are only given 3 moles of HCl where we need 4 moles to completely react.

So, since HCl is in less amount, it is the Limiting Reagent

A group of students is investigating whether aluminum is a better thermal conductor than steel. The students take an aluminum wi

Mademuasel [1]

The students have conducted an experiment to check their hypothesis on the thermal conductivity of two metals; Aluminum and steel. The experimental observations have been noted, and the next step based on the scientific procedure is to analyze the data.

Analysis of data suggests that; since the length of wax after 10 min is lower in Al than steel, aluminum is a better thermal conductor.
