study of plants is life science
(I'm assuming that "plans" meant to say "plants," but correct me if I'm wrong)
The balanced chemical reaction is written as:
<span>Zn + 2AgNO3 = Zn(NO3)2 + 2Ag
To determine the grams of silver metal that is being produced, it is important to first determine which is the limiting reactant and the excess reactant from the given initial amounts. We do as follows:
4.35 g Zn ( 1 mol / 65.38 g ) ( 2 mol AgNO3 / 1 mol Zn ) = 0.1331 mol AgNO3 needed
35.8 g AgNO3 ( 1 mol / 169.87 g ) ( 1 mol Zn / 2 mol AgNO3 ) = 0.1054 mol Zn needed
Therefore, the limiting reactant would be the zinc metal since it would be consumed completely in the reaction. The excess amount of AgNO3 would be:
0.2107 mol AgNO3 - 0.1331 mol AgNO3 = 0.0776 mol AgNO3 left ( 169.87 g / 1 mol ) = 13.19 g AgNO3 left
0.0665 mol Zn ( 2 mol Ag / 1 mol Zn) ( 107.9 g / 1 mol) = 14.3581 g Ag produced</span>
That answer is either 3 or 4, but I truly forgot which of the two.
Chlorine has a smaller atomic size.
Explanation: As you move towards right of the periodic table, the atomic size decreases. This is because the number of protons is increasing towards the right of the periodic table, which applies a greater inward force on the electrons. that is why the elements on the right of the periodic table have a smaller atomic size when compared to the elements on the left. Since chlorine is on the right side of aluminium, it has a smaller atomic size.
