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

The reaction 2a → a2​​​​​ was experimentally determined to be second order with a rate constant, k, equal to 0.0265 m–1min–1. if
katovenus [111]

The integrated rate law for a second-order reaction is given by:

\frac{1}{[A]t} =   \frac{1}{[A]0} + kt

where, [A]t= the concentration of A at time t,

[A]0= the concentration of A at time t=0

<span>k =</span> the rate constant for the reaction


<u>Given</u>: [A]0= 4 M, k = 0.0265 m–1min–1 and t = 180.0 min


Hence, \frac{1}{[A]t} = \frac{1}{4} + (0.0265 X 180)

<span>                                        = 4.858</span>

<span><span><span>Therefore, [A]</span>t</span>= 0.2058 M.</span>

<span>
</span>

<span>Answer: C</span>oncentration of A, after 180 min, is 0.2058 M

Can you force the atoms into new configurations by pushing atoms around
marta [7]
<span>No, this is not possible. The reason for this impossibility is that the electrons are not attracted to one another, and thus, would repel. If you were to push the atoms into each other, the electrons would then prevent this from happening. Essentially atoms will bounce off of one another due to the repel of charges.</span>
