Answer:

The answer to your question is a) limiting reactant SO₂

                                                     b)mass of SO₃ produced 31.25 g

Explanation:

Data

mass of SO₂ = 25 g

mass of O₂ = 40 g

Balanced Reaction

                                     2SO₂   +   O₂   ⇒   2SO₃

Process

1.- Calculate the molecular mass of the reactants

SO₂ = 32 + (16 x 2) = 32 + 32 = 64

O₂ = 16 x 2 =32

2.- Use proportions to determine the limiting reactant

Theoretical proportion    2(SO₂) / O₂ = 2(64) / 32 = 4

Experimental proportion   SO₂ / O₂ = 25 / 40 = 0.625

From these results, we determined that the limiting reactant is SO₂, because the proportion in the experiment is lower.

3.- Amount of SO₃ produced

Mass of SO₃ = 32 + (3 x 16) = 80 g

                        128 g of SO₂   ---------------  2(80) g of SO₃

                        25 g of SO₂    ---------------   x

                         x = (25 x 2 x 80) / 128

                         x = 31.25 g of SO₃

A solution is made by mixing 34.5 g of sugar with 75.0 g of water. What is the mass percent of sugar in this solution?
lubasha [3.4K]

the mass percent of sugar in this solution is 46%.

Answer:

Solution given:

mass of solute=34.5g

mass of solvent=75g

mass percent=\frac{mass\:of\:solute}{mass\:of \:solvent}*100\%

=\bold{\frac{34.5}{75.0}*100\%=46\%}

If you are supposed to put in 2/4 a cup sugar for a recipe, can you just put in a half cup of sugar?
natta225 [31]
I would assume so.

Given \frac{2}{4}, we can simplify the fraction to \frac{1}{2}

Both would obtain the same proportions, so I don't see why putting a half cup of sugar would make things any different.

Hope this is the answer you are looking for.

Ultraviolet radiation and radiation of shorter wavelengths can damage biological molecules because they carry enough energy to b
Lelechka [254]

Answer:

343.98 nm is the longest wavelength of radiation with enough energy to break carbon–carbon bonds.

Explanation:

A typical carbon–carbon bond requires 348 kJ/mol=348000 J/mol

Energy required to breakl sigle C-C bond:E

E=\frac{348000 J/mol}{6.022\times 10^{23} mol^{-1}}=5.7788\times 10^{-19} J

E=\frac{h\times c}{\lambda}

where,

E = energy of photon

h = Planck's constant = 6.626\times 10^{-34}Js

c = speed of light = 3\times 10^8m/s

\lambda = wavelength of the radiation

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get the energy of the photons.

\lambda =\frac{(6.63\times 10^{-34}Js)\times (3\times 10^8m/s)}{5.7788\times 10^{-19} J}

\lambda =3.4398\\times 10^{-7}m=343.98 nm

1 m = 10^{9} nm

343.98 nm is the longest wavelength of radiation with enough energy to break carbon–carbon bonds.
