<u>Answer:</u>

1 mole of excess reactant (AgNO_3 will be left.

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

First of all, we need to balance the given equation to get:

Cu +2AgNO^3 → Cu(NO^3)^2+2Ag

We know that,

1 mole of Cu reacts with 2 moles of AgNO_3

So supposing the number of moles of AgNO_3 to be x for 1.5 moles of Cu, we can find x:

x = \frac{1.5*2}{1} = 3

Therefore 3 moles of AgNO_3 are needed to complete the reaction while we have excess of it (4 moles). So 1 mole of excess reactant AgNO_3 will be left.

<h3>Answers:</h3>

              3 moles of Silver is formed

              1 mole of excess AgNO₃ is left unreacted

<h3>Solution:</h3>

The balance chemical equation is as follow,

                        Cu  +  2 AgNO₃    →    Cu(NO₃)₂  +  2 Ag

Step 1: Finding out Limiting Reagent:

According to equation,

                 1 mole of Cu reacts with  =  2 moles of AgNO₃

So,

              1.5 moles of Cu will react with  =  X moles of AgNO₃

Solving for X,

                    X  =  (1.5 mol × 2 mol) ÷ 1 mol

                    X  =  3 mol of AgNO₃

Therefore, 1.5 moles of Copper requires 3 moles of AgNO₃ for complete reaction but, we are provided with 4 moles of AgNO₃ which is in excess hence, Cu is the limiting reagent and will control the yield of products.

Step 2: Calculate Amount of Ag formed:

According to equation,

                     1 mole of Cu produced  =  2 moles of Ag

So,

                 1.5 moles of Cu will produce  =  X moles of Ag

Solving for X,

                     X  =  (1.5 mol × 2 mol) ÷ 1 mol

                     X  =  3 moles of Silver

Step 3: Calculating Excess AgNO₃ left:

As the reaction required only 3 moles of AgNO₃ and we were provided with 4 moles of AgNO₃ so the amount left was,

                           Excess AgNO₃  =  4 moles - 3 moles

                           Excess AgNO₃  = 1 mole

from an external source of power

Explanation:

The energy needed for nuclear fusion comes from an external source of power.

Nuclear fusion is the combination of small sized atomic nuclei to form larger ones.

The reaction releases a huge amount of energy but also requires a large activation energy to start up.

  • The energy input require to drive two nuclei into fusion comes from an external source.
  • Nuclear fusion has a high activation energy which serves as the energy barrier for this reaction to take place.
  • The energy comes from the surrounding and once initiated, spontaneous chain reactions are set up.

Answer:

Explanation:

When you are in the laboratory and take a direct sniff of the chemicals you are using, you run the risk of damaging your mucous membranes or your lungs. When it is necessary to smell chemicals in the lab, the proper technique is to cup your hand above the container and waft the air toward your face.

What is the pH of a solution with hydrogen ion concentration of 1 x 10^–6 M?
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

The pH of the solution is 6,00.

Explanation:

The pH indicates the acidity or basicity of a substance. pH values between 0 and less than 7 indicate acidic solutions, 7 neutral and greater than 7 to 14 basic. It is calculated as:

pH = -log (H +)

pH= -log (1x10^-6)

<em>pH= 6, 00</em>

Nastasia [14]
The balanced chemical reaction is expressed as follows:

<span>CuCl2 (aq) + 2AgNO3 (aq) → 2AgCl (s) + CuNO32 (aq)

To determine the </span><span>concentration of copper(II) chloride contaminant in the original groundwater sample, we use the final amount of silver chloride that was produced from the reaction and the relation of the substances from the chemical reaction. We calculate as follows:

mmol AgCl = 6.1 mg AgCl ( 1 mmol / 143.35 mg ) = 0.0426 mmol
mmol CuCl2 = </span>0.0426 mmol AgCl ( 1 mmol CuCl2 / 2 mmol AgCl ) = 0.0213 mmol CuCl2
concentration of CuCl2 in the original water sample = 0.0213 mmol CuCl2 / 200.0 mL = 1.0638 x 10^-4 mmol / mL or 1.0638 x 10^-4 mol/L
