K + I - > KI
Potassium (needs to lose 1 electron) responds with Iodine (needs to pick up 1 electron) to fulfill both component's octet, shaping a salt, potassium iodide
This is a similar case for NaCl, simply unique components. Trust this made a difference.

How does the concentration of reactants affect the rate <br>of Chemical reaction? explain in short

Neporo4naja [7]

Higher concentration of reactants equals faster rate of reaction. Reactions occur when particles collide effectively, and by increasing the concentration of reactants, you increase the number of effective collisions, thereby making the reaction occur faster.

Gaseous ethane will react with gaseous oxygen to produce gaseous carbon dioxide and gaseous water . Suppose 2.7 g of ethane is m

Bond [772]

Answer:

$m_{H_2O}=4.86gH_2O$

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the described chemical reaction is:

$C_2H_6+\frac{7}{2} O_2\rightarrow 2CO_2+3H_2O$

Thus, for the given reacting masses, we must identify the limiting reactant for us to determine the maximum mass of water that could be produced, therefore, we proceed to compute the available moles of ethane:

$n_{C_2H_6}=2.7gC_2H_6*\frac{1molC_2H_6}{30gC_2H_6} =0.09molC_2H_6$

Next, we compute the moles of ethane consumed by 13.0 grams of oxygen by using the 1:7/2 molar ratio between them:

$n_{C_2H_6}^{consumed\ by \ O_2}=13.0gO_2*\frac{1molO_2}{32gO_2}*\frac{1molC_2H_6}{\frac{7}{2} molO_2}=0.116molC_2H_6$

Thus, we notice there are less available moles of ethane, for that reason, it is the limiting reactant, thereby, the maximum amount of water is computed by considering the 1:3 molar ratio between ethane and water:

$m_{H_2O}=0.09molC_2H_6*\frac{3molH_2O}{1molC_2H_6} *\frac{18gH_2O}{1molH_2O} \\\\m_{H_2O}=4.86gH_2O$

Best regards.
