Answer:

6.79 g of phosphine can be produced

Explanation:

The reaction is this:

3H₂ + 2P → 2PH₃

We have the mass of the two reactants, so let's find out the limiting reactant, so we can work with the equation. Firstly, we convert the mass to moles (mass / molar mass)

6.2 g / 30.97 g/mol = 0.200 moles of P

4g / 2 g/mol = 2 moles of H₂

Ratio is 3:2.

3 moles of hydrogen react with 2 moles of P

Then, 2 moles of H₂ would react with (2 . 2)/ 3 = 1.3 moles of P.

We have only 0.2 moles of P, so clearly the phosphorous is the limiting reactant.

Ratio is 2:2. So 2 moles of P can produce 2 moles of phosphine. Therefore, 0.2 moles of P must produce the same amount of phosphine.

Let's convert the moles to mass ( mol . molar mass)

0.2 mol . 33.97 g/mol = 6.79 g

Which statement is true about the activity series? (5 points)
coldgirl [10]

Answer: Correct statements are given below:

1) In activity series elements are listed according to their reactivity.

2) Nuclear reaction in which low atomic nuclei fuse to form a heavier nucleus with the release of energy. Nuclear fusion reaction occurs in the sun.

3) C3H8 + 5O2 → 3CO2 + 4H2O is the example of a combustion reaction.

4) 2Fe + O2 → 2FeO is the example of synthesis reaction. In synthesis reaction is a type of reaction in which two reactants combine to form a single product.

A laboratory requires 2.0 L of a 1.5 M solution of hydrochloric acid (HCl), but the only available HCl is a 12.0 M stock solutio
ira [324]
The amount of the solute is constant during dilution. So the mole number of HCl is 2*1.5=3 mole. The volume of HCl stock is 3/12=0.25 L. So using 0.25 L stock solution and dilute to 2.0 L.

Suppose that you add 26.7 g of an unknown molecular compound to 0.250 kg of benzene, which has a K f Kf of 5.12 oC/m. With the a
kiruha [24]

From the calculation, the molar mass of the solution is 141 g/mol.

<h3>What is the molar mass?</h3>

We know that;

ΔT = K m i

K = the freezing constant

m = molality of the solution

i = the Van't Hoft factor

The molality of the solution is obtained from;

m = ΔT/K i

m = 3.89/5.12 * 1

m = 0.76 m

Now;

0.76 =  26.7 /MM/0.250

0.76 = 26.7 /0.250MM

0.76 * 0.250MM =  26.7

MM= 26.7/0.76 * 0.250

MM = 141 g/mol
