Answer:

Aluminum is limiting reactant

Explanation:

Data Given:

Amount aluminum metal (Al) = 1.5 mole

chlorine gas (Cl₂) = 3 mole

limiting reactant = ?

Solution:

limiting reactant: The amount of reactant that consume first in a reaction is termed as limiting reagent or limiting reactant.

Excess reagent: the amount of reactant that remain unreacted at the end of the reaction is termed as excess reagent.

Now to look for the limiting regent we have to look at reaction

Reaction:

           2 Al + 3 Cl₂  --------> 2 AlCl₃

from this balance reaction we come to know that 2 mole of Aluminum metal react with 3 mole of chlorine gas. It means that amount of aluminum is less and it will consume first and act as limiting reactant.

To know with how much chlorine gas it will react apply unity formula

                2 mole of Al ≅ 3 mole of Cl₂

               1.5 mole of Al ≅ X mole of Cl₂

So,

                mole of Cl₂ =   3 mole x  1.5 mole / 2 mol

                mole of Cl₂ =   2.25 mol

So, 1.5 mol Aluminum consumed fully and react with 2.25 mol of Chlorine and 0.75 mol remain unreacted.

Aluminum is limiting reactant.

How many atoms are in 3.2 moles of chromium?
-BARSIC- [3]

Hey there!

1 mole has 6.022 x 10²³ atoms.

Multiply that by 3.2 because we have 3.2 moles.

3.2 x 6.022 x 10²³

1.9 x 10²⁴

There are 1.9 x 10²⁴ atoms in 3.2 moles of chromium.

Hope this helps!

A sample of oxygen has a volume of 128 milliliter at a pressure of 500.0 mmhg calculate the volume this sample would occupy at s
leva [86]

Answer:

84.2mL

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Initial volume (V1) = 128mL

Initial pressure (P1) = 500mmHg

Final pressure (P2) = stp = 760mmHg

Final volume (V2) =..?

Thus, the new volume of the gas can be obtained by using the Boyle's law equation as follow:

P1V1 = P2V2

500 x 128 = 760 x V2

Divide both side by 760

V2 = (500 x 128)/760

V2 = 84.2mL

Therefore, the new volume of the gas is 84.2mL
