Answer:

NaOH is limiting

Explanation:

Hcl + NaOH ------------ Nacl + H2O

Given 7.81g 5.24g

mol weights 1+35.5 23+16+1

36.5 40

No of Moles 7.81/36.5 5.24/40

0.2139 0.131

No of moles = weight/ molecular weight

No of moles of NaOH is lower so it is limiting as according to equation one mole of Hcl requires mole of NaOH so equal number of moles are required. NaOH is 0.131 which is far lower than 0.2139

Current passes through a solution of sodium chloride. In 1.00 second, 2.68×1016Na+ ions arrive at the negative electrode and 3.9

EleoNora [17]

Answer : The current passing between the electrodes is, $1.056\times 10^{-2}A$

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the charge of sodium ion.

$q=ne$

where,

q = charge of sodium ion

n = number of sodium ion = $2.68\times 10^{16}$

e = charge on electron = $1.6\times 10^{-19}C$

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

$q=(2.68\times 10^{16})\times (1.6\times 10^{-19}C)=4.288\times 10^{-3}C$

Now we have to calculate the charge of chlorine ion.

$q'=ne$

where,

q' = charge of chlorine ion

n = number of chlorine ion = $3.92\times 10^{16}$

e = charge on electron = $1.6\times 10^{-19}C$

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

$q'=(3.92\times 10^{16})\times (1.6\times 10^{-19}C)=6.272\times 10^{-3}C$

Now we have to calculate the current passing between the electrodes.

$I=\frac{q}{t}+\frac{q'}{t}$

$I=\frac{4.288\times 10^{-3}}{1.00}+\frac{6.272\times 10^{-3}}{1.00}$

$I=1.056\times 10^{-2}A$

Thus, the current passing between the electrodes is, $1.056\times 10^{-2}A$

How do purple stem plants use there energy

tatuchka [14]

Purple stem plants can be formed by genetics, they use their energy slightly different from other plants, they use less energy, but that may also be because of bad nutrition, and because they may be hungry for nutrients.
