Answer:

Propane

Explanation:

From the question given, we were told that 0.1240 kg of propane reacted with excess oxygen to produce 0.3110kg of carbon dioxide.

Since the reaction took place in the presence of excess oxygen, therefore, propane is the limiting reactant as all of it is used up in the presence of excess oxygen.

Answer:

The limiting reactant is propane, C₃H₈ and the percentage yield is 83.77%

Explanation:

Mass of propane = 0.1240 kg = 124 g

Mass of carbon dioxide = 0.3110 kg = 311 g

Molar mass of propane = 44.1 g/mol

Molar mass of carbon dioxide = 44.01 g/mol

Number of moles of propane = 124/44.1 = 2.812 moles

Number of moles of carbon dioxide = 311/44.01 = 7.067 moles

Equation for the reaction

C₃H₈ + 5O₂ → 3CO₂ + 4H₂O

Hence 1 mole of propane ideally yields 3 moles of CO₂

Hence, 2.812 moles of propane will yield 3×2.812 moles = 8.44 moles of CO₂

Since, oxygen is in excess, therefore, the limiting reactant = Propane, C₃H₈

The percentage yield = 7.067/8.44× 100 = 83.77%.

Calculate the number of grams of solute in 814.2mL of 0.227 M calcium acetate
kiruha [24]

Answer:

Mass = 29.23 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Volume of solution = 814.2 mL 814.2/1000 = 0.8142 L)

Molarity of solution = 0.227 M

Mass of solute in gram = ?

Solution:

Molarity = number of moles / volume in L

By putting values,

0.227 M = number of moles / 0.8142 L

Number of moles = 0.227 M × 0.8142 L

Number of moles = 0.184 mol

Mass in gram:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Molar mass of calcium acetate = 158.17 g/mol

Mass = 0.184 mol × 158.17 g/mol

Mass = 29.23 g

A 2.5 mg sample of magnesium powder is ignited with 2 mg oxygen in a sealed container. All of the magnesium is consumed and 4.15
lys-0071 [83]

Answer:

Total mass of the reactant = 2+2.5 =4.5 mg

Total mass of product = 4.15 mg

therefore, mass of unreacted oxygen = 4.50-4.15 = 0.35 g

\bold{\huge{\underline{ Solution }}}

<h3><u>Basic </u><u>Characteristic </u><u>of </u><u>acids </u></h3>

  • Acids are sour in taste
  • Acid turns blue litmus paper or solution into red litmus paper or solution
  • Acids are good conductor of electricity because it dissociate into cation in aqueous solution
  • Acids classified into edible acids and non edible acids. Non edible acids are very hazardous
  • Generally, All acids are soluble in water
  • Acids have PH smaller than 7

<u>Arrhenius </u><u>definition </u><u>of </u><u>acids </u><u>:</u><u>-</u>

According to Arrehinus,

  • Acids are those substances which when dissolve in water given H positive ions . Then, this hydrogen ions combine with water to form H30 + ions

<u>Second </u><u>definition </u><u>of </u><u>Acids </u><u>was </u><u>given </u><u>by </u><u>Bonsted </u><u>Lowry </u><u>:</u><u>-</u>

According to Bonsted Lowry

  • Acids are the proton donors that is when acids dissociate into water gives hydrogen ions that is H+ ions

<u>3rd </u><u>definition </u><u>was </u><u>given </u><u>by </u><u>Lewis </u>

According to Lewis

  • Acids are those substances which have the ability to accept a pair of electrons .

Example of Acids

  • HNO3 :- Nitric acid
  • H2SO4 :- Sulfuric acid
  • HCl :- Hydrochloric acid

<h3><u>Basic </u><u>characterists </u><u>of </u><u>bases </u></h3>

  • Bases are bitter in taste
  • Bases turns red litmus paper into blue litmus paper or solution
  • Bases are also good conductor of electricity because on dissociation it produces anion in aqueous solution
  • Bases are also good conductor of electricity
  • When bases are soluble in water then they are known as alkaline base
  • Bases have PH greater than 7

<u>Arrehinus definition of bases :-</u>

According to Arrehinus ,

  • Bases are those substances which when dissolve in water produce OH negative ions that is hydroxide ions

<u>Bonsted Lowry definition </u>

According to Bonsted Lowry

  • Bases are the proton donors as they produce OH negative ions in dissociation in aqueous solution

<u>Lewis </u><u>definition </u>

According to Lewis

  • Acids are those substances which have the ability to lose electrons that is they are electron donors.

Example of bases

  • Ca(OH)2 :- Calcium hydroxide
  • NaOH :- Sodium hydroxide
  • KOH :- Potassium hydroxide

[ Note :- There are so many Lewis acids and bases but they are not Arrhenius or Lowry acids or bases ]

<h3><u>Basic </u><u>characteristic </u><u>of </u><u>salt </u></h3>

  • Salts are the ionic compounds which are composed of acids and bases that cation and anion
  • Salts are generally found in oceans and seas in the forms of crystals
  • As they are composed of acids and bases so they are neutral in nature but the salt of strong acid or weak base is acidic in nature or vice versa
  • Salts are also good conductor of electricity as they form ionic bond
  • Generally, All salts are soluble in water.
  • The PH of common Salt is 7

Example of salts

  • NH4Cl :- Ammonium chloride
  • CuSO4 :- Copper sulphate
  • NaCl :- Sodium chloride

Which of these is a chemical property? color, compressibility, heat of combustion, malleability
Flauer [41]
Chemical changes only happen when the object changes form. Color is a physical property because you're not changing the object that you have, compressibility is also a physical property because you still have the same substance before and sfter, malleability again is another physical. Heat of combustion is physical, when you burn things it changes the substance. :)
