Zn+2HCl ----> 2ZnCl2 + H2

For 2.50 g of Zn

Mass per mol = 2.50/molar mass of Zn = 2.50/65.38 = 0.0382 g/mol
There are two moles of ZnCl2 and total mass = 2*0.0382*molar mass of ZnCl2 = 2*0.0382*136.286 = 10.42 g

For 2 g of HCl

Mass per mol = 2/2*molar mass of HCl = 2/ (2*36.46) = 0.0274 g/mol
For the two moles of ZnCl2, mass produced = 2*0.0274*136.286 = 7.48 g

It can be noted that 2 g of HCl produced less amount of ZnCl and thus it is the limiting reagent.

Ice floats on water. For most other substances, however, the solid sinks in the liquid. Classify each of these statements based

sattari [20]

Answer:

1.High pressure will cause the liquid to become solid :

Describe both water and other substances

2.High pressure will cause the solid to become liquid :

It describe none : neither water nor other substances 

This statement is :False for both water and other substances

3.The solid is more dense than the liquid :

It describe other substance

This statement is :False for water but true for other substances.

4. In a phase diagram, the solid-liquid coexistence line has a negative slope.

It describes water:

This statement is :True for water because solid ice is less dense than liquid water.

False for other substance, they have positive slope

5.The molecules are closest in the liquid phase.

This statement is :False for water and other substances

6.The solid is less dense than the liquid:

It Describes water because ice is less dense than liquid water

7. In a phase diagram, the solid-liquid coexistence line has a positive slope.

It describe other substances

This statement is :True for other substances but false for water

8. The molecules are closest in the solid phase :

Describes both water and other substances

Explanation:

Answers to statement 1 , 2,5 and 8

Answers to statement 1 , 2

On increasing pressure and decreasing temperature , There occur Phase transition always for every substance :

From liquid to solid and gas to liquid

Hence,

In Both for water and other substance

High pressure will cause the liquid to become solid.

Answers to statement 5,8 :

2.The Particles of solid are closely packed hence there is maximum force of attraction between the particle of solid as compared to liquid and gases .

Hence , The molecules of both water and other substances are closest in the solid phase

This also means that in liquid molecules are far apart .

Rest statement : 3, 4 ,6 ,7 are explained below(see attached image)

The molecules are closest in the liquid phase is false statement and does not describe both water and other substance

Ice floats on water. For most other substances, however, the solid sinks in the liquid.

This can be explained using the phase diagram of water :

The line DB is = the solid-liquid coexistence line

It has negative slope because , solid ice is less dense than liquid water . That is why ice floats on water because its density is less than water

Hence Water is described truly by statement 4,6, which are :

4. the solid-liquid coexistence line has a negative slope.

6.The solid is less dense than the liquid.

Rest 3,7 = describe by other substance

other substance : Solid is more dense than the liquid ,the solid-liquid coexistence line has a positive slope

What does this do to the electrons outside the nucleus in the gaseous atoms

AleksandrR [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

As you know, ionization energy is the energy needed to remove one mole of electrons from one mole of atoms in the gaseous state

energy

→

−

Right from the start, you can tell that the harder it is to remove an electron from an atom, the higher the ionization energy will be.

Now, the periodic trends for ionization energy can be describe as follows

ionization energy increases as you move from left to right across a period

ionization energy decreases as you go down a group

As you mentioned, if you compare the first ionization energies for oxygen and chlorine using these two trends, you will get conflicting results.

If you follow the way ionization energy increases across period, chlorine would have a higher ionization energy, since it's closer to the noble gases.

On the other hand, if you go by how ionziation energy decreases from top to bottom in a group, oxygen would have higher ionization energy, since it's located in period 2, as compared with period 3 for chlorine.

As it turns out, the trend for groups overpowers the trend for periods. As aresult, oxygen will have a higher ionization energy than chlorine.

This happens because the smaller oxygen atom has its outermost electrons held tighter by the nucleus. By comparison, chlorine's outermost atoms are located further away from the nucleus.

Not only that, but they are screened from the charge of the nucleus better, since they're located on the third energy level.

Oxygen's outermost electrons are screened by

electrons, while chlorine's are screened by

electrons.

All these factors will make chlorine's outermost electrons a little easier to remove, which implies a smaller ionization energy than that of oxygen.v

One difference between strong bases and weak bases is 1. strong bases can neutralize more acid than weak bases. 2. strong bases

Tema [17]

One difference between strong bases and weak bases is that a strong bases dissociate completely while weak bases do not. A strong base is a compound that completely ionizes into metal and hydroxide ions when in a solution, on the other hand weak bases only partially ionizes to metal and hydroxide ions in solution. An example of a weak base is ammonia and an example of a strong base is sodium hydroxide.

Why do sea and ocean levels recede (more coast land is exposed) when the planet goes through a major ice age?

fomenos

This happens because ice is made up of water, and when that water freezes, it never goes back to land, thus there being less water on the coastline. But when the ice starts to melt, the water will even out quickly, and the water will go to the coastline, causing the tide to rise. Mark brainliest, please.
