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.

If 0.8675 g of KHP requires 24.56 mL of an NaOH solution to reach the equivalence
ValentinkaMS [17]

Answer:

M_{base}=0.173M

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since the titration of acids like KHP with bases like NaOH are performed in a 1:1 mole ratio, it is possible for us to know that their moles are the same at the equivalence point, and the concentration, volume and moles are related as follows:

n_{acid}=M_{base}V_{base}

Thus, by solving for the volume of the base as NaOH, we obtain:

M_{base}=\frac{n_{acid}}{V_{base}} \\\\M_{base}=\frac{0.8675g*\frac{1mol}{204.22g} }{0.02456L} \\\\M_{base}=0.173M

Best regards!

Calcium hypochlorite, Ca(OCl)2, is a bleaching agent produced from sodium hydroxide, calcium hydroxide, and chlorine. Socium chl
bija089 [108]

Answer:  The missing coefficient is 2.

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.

2NaOH+Ca(OH)_2+2Cl_2\rightarrow Ca(OCl)_2+2NaCl+2H_2O

As in the products, there are 2 atoms of sodium, thus there will be 2 atoms of  of sodium in the reactant as well.  This will balance the number of hydrogen and oxygen atoms as well.

Thus the missing coefficient is 2.

What is the equation for density?<br> O D= m<br> V<br> OD=V<br> m<br> OD=m<br> OD=mv²
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

D = m/V

Explanation:

Density represents the following ratio:

Density (D) = mass (m) / volume (V)

In this formula, the volume is being divided from the mass. The typical units for mass is grams and the unit for volume is milliliters.
