The concentration of A will be <em>0.34 mol·L⁻¹</em> after 60 min.

In a first-order reaction, the formula for the amount remaining after <em>n</em> half-lives is

\text{[A]} = \frac{\text{[A]}_{0}}{2^{n}}\\

If t_{\frac{1}{2}} = \text{20 min}\\

n = \frac{t}{t_{\frac{1}{2}}} = \frac{\text{60 min}}{\text{20 min}}= \text{3.0}

∴ \text{[A]} = \frac{\text{2.7 mol/L}}{2^{3.0}} = \frac{\text{2.7 mol/L}}{8.0} = \textbf{0.34 mol/L}

Answer : The reagent present in excess and remains unreacted is, O_2

Solution : Given,

Moles of FeCl_3 = 3.00 mole

Moles of O_2 = 2.00 mole

Excess reagent : It is defined as the reactants not completely used up in the reaction.

Limiting reagent : It is defined as the reactants completely used up in the reaction.

Now we have to calculate the limiting and excess reagent.

The balanced chemical reaction is,

2FeCl_3(s)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2FeO(s)+3Cl_2(g)

From the balanced reaction we conclude that

As, 2 moles of FeCl_3 react with 1 mole of O_2

So, 3.00 moles of FeCl_3 react with \frac{3.00}{2}=1.5 moles of O_2

From this we conclude that, O_2 is an excess reagent because the given moles are greater than the required moles and FeCl_3 is a limiting reagent and it limits the formation of product.

Hence, the reagent present in excess and remains unreacted is, O_2

What kind of chemical change do you think occurs when a banana peel turns brown in the open air?
Alisiya [41]
Rotting, and ageing. The banana peel ages faster in open air, and therefor begins to rot. Brow peels don't mean that the banana is rotted, however, it is a sign that it may begin to rot soon.
