What is the limiting reactant if 12 moles of p4 react with 15 moles of o2?.
brilliants [131]

Answer:

see explanation

Explanation:

To determine limiting reactant divide mole quantities of reactants by the respective coefficient in the balanced equation. The smaller value is the limiting reactant.

    P₄      +     5O₂       => 2P₂O₅

12/1 = 12      15/5 = 3

O₂ is the limiting reactant. P₄ will be in excess when rxn stops.

Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

CuSO4 cell will have the greatest amount of deposit among all three. The deposit will occur at the cathode

Explanation:

The valence of the elements in this case is as follows -

Cu - 2e-

Sn - 4e-

Cr - 3e-

CuSO4 cell will have the greatest amount of deposit among all three

The atoms of copper metal will deposit at the cathode. At the cathode, the least number of moles of electrons needed .

Hence, more amount of copper  can be extracted out by the electrolyte
