Answer:

Zn is the excess reactant (0.079 moles in excess)

Option C is correct

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of Zinc (Zn) = 50.0 grams

Mass of Hydrogen chloride (HCl) = 50.0 grams

atomic mass Zn = 65.38 g/mol

Molar mass HCl = 36.46 g/mol

Step 2: The balanced equation

Zn + 2HCl → ZnCl2 + H2

step 3: Calculate moles

Moles = mass / molar mass

Moles Zn = 50.0 grams / 65.38 g/mol

Moles Zn = 0.764 moles

Moles HCl = 50.0 grams / 36.46 g/mol

Moles HCl = 1.37 moles

Step 4: Calculate limiting reactant

For 1 mol Zn we need 2 moles HCl to produce 1 mol ZnCl2 and 1 mol H2

HCl is the limiting reactant. It will completely be consumed (1.37 moles)

Zn is in excess. There will react 1.37/2 = 0.685 moles

There will be 0.764 -0.685 = 0.079 moles  in excess

s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

5.15 moles

Explanation:

2zn + o2 = 2zno

5.15 2.57 5.15 moles

nzno=500/(16x2+65)= 5.15 moles

-> nzn = 5.15 x 2 ÷ 2 = 5.15 moles

What are the two different ions present in the compound al(no3)3?
Aleks [24]

Al^{3+} and NO_3^{-}

Aluminum nitrate is an ionic compound, meaning that it is made up cations and anions. By convention when writing the formula for an ionic compounds the cation part shall be placed in front the anions. Thus the cation would contain aluminum and the anion shall be a polyatomic nitrate ion consisting of nitrogen and oxygen. The bracket with subscript 3 attached resembles the ratio between the two species, aluminum ions and nitrate ions. For each aluminum ion in the compound there shall be three corresponding nitrate ions.

Aluminum form ions of charge +3 whereas nitrate ions are of charge -1. Write the charge of the ion as the superscript in reverse (i.e., write 3+ as in Al^{3+} and - in NO_3^{-}, omitting any 1.)
