Answer;
294.13 amu
Solution;
-293nv is 293.10 amu and that of 295nv is 295.45 amu
293.05+295.2=588.25
588.25/2= 294.13 amu
an amu of 294.13 using significant figures
The balanced equation for the reaction is as follows
2H₂ + O₂ --> 2H₂O
stoichiometry of H₂ to O₂ is 2:1
number of H₂ moles - 30.0 g / 2 g/mol = 15 mol
number of O₂ moles - 80.0 g / 32 g/mol = 2.5 mol
limiting reactant is the reagent in which only a fraction is used up in the reaction
if H₂ is the limiting reactant
if 2 mol of H₂ requires 1 mol of O₂
then 15 mol of H₂ requires 1/2 x 15.0 = 7.5 mol of O₂
but only 2.5 mol of O₂ is required
this means that O₂ is the limiting reagentt and H₂ is in excess
