To solve this problem, you must first balance the chemical equation and then identify the limiting reactant. The balanced reaction is 3Cl2 + 3H2O = 5HCl + HClO3. Next is finding the limiting reactant. To do this, you have to compare each reactant to the same product. 15.2 g of chlorine gas (Cl2), is equal to 0.214 mols of chlorine gas, and the mol to mol ratio of chlorine gas to hydrochloric acid is 3:5. So, for every 3 mols of Cl2 gas, there are 5 mols of HCl. 0.214mols Cl2 times (5/3) gives you 0.357 mols of HCl. Next you have to go through the same process except with water. 8.46g water divided by 18.016g water per mol = 0.470 mols H2O. The mol to mol ration is still 3:5, so 0.470 times (5/3), which gives you 0.783mols HCl. A chemical reaction is limited based on the amount of reactants present, and so the reaction is limited by whichever reactant runs out first. In this case, the limiting reactant is chlorine gas because it produced a smaller amount of HCl, and therefore the “limit” of the reaction. This means that the maximum amount of HCl that can form is 0.357 mols, or 13.016 grams of HCl if the answer is supposed to be given in grams.

Explain how our body systems work together to get oxygen into and around our body.
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:  (1) Inhales (breathes in) Oxygen - good for the body - gives it to the Circulatory System to be transported throughout the body through the blood. (1) Digestive System gets nutrients (good) from food and hands it over to the blood and Circulatory System then carries those nutrients where they need to go.

What is the ph of a solution made by mixing 25.00 ml of 0.100 m hcl with 40.00 ml of 0.100 m koh? assume that the volumes of the
Digiron [165]
<span>Answer: The HCl and KOH will react until one or the other is gone. As you have a larger volume of an equal concentration of HCl, the KOH will go first. moles HCl = 0.04000 L * 0.100 M = 0.00400 moles moles KOH = 0.02500 L * 0.100 M = 0.00250 moles moles HCl left = 0.00400 - 0.00250 = 0.00150 moles Your total volume is now 65.00 mL, so the [HCl] = 0.00150 moles / 0.06500 L = 0.0231 M = [H+] pH = -log [H+] = -log (0.0231) = 1.64</span>

What is the concept of galactic recycling?
frozen [14]
Galactic recycling is a natural phenomenon in which the stars expel some gas into the space so that it would mix with the interstellar medium. As a result, this would produce new younger stars. So, basically, the concept done here is the mass and energy conservation. In order to create new species, the energy must come from another source.

The bottom of a box has a surface area of 25.0 cm 2 . The mass of the box is 34.0 kilograms. Acceleration due to gravity at sea
Viktor [21]
Pressure given by: 
Pressure=(force)/(area)
Force=Mass*gravitational pull
Mass=34Kg
gravity=9.80

so,
force=34*9.8=333.2
thus;
pressure=333.2/25=13.328=13.3 N/cm^2

Hope this helped :)
