Identify the limiting reactant in the reaction of hydrogen and ethylene (c2h4) to form c2h6, of 4.40 g of h2 and 10.5 g of c2h4

are combined. Determine the amount (in grams) of excess reactant that remains after the reaction is complete.

<u> Definition</u> :   Limiting reagent is the substance in a chemical reaction that is consumed when chemical reaction is complete.

step 1 :  first write the chemical reaction and then balanced the chemical equation

C_{2}H_{4} + H_{2} \rightarrow C_{2}H_{6}

step 2 :  convert given masses into moles.


\text{ moles of } C_{2}H_{4}=10.5 (g)/ 28 (\text{ g/mole)} = 0.375 \text{ moles}

\text{moles of }H_{2}= 0.40 (g)/ 2 (g/mole) = 0.20 moles

step 3 :  Now find the limiting reagent.

\text{ moles of }C_{2}H_{4} \text{ in excess}= 0.375-0.20 = 0.175 \text{moles}

Now we conclude that  C_{2}H_{4} is the limiting reagent.

step 4 :  Amount of the excess reactant i.e C_{2}H_{4}

\text{ mass of }C_{2}H_{4}= 0.175 (moles) \ast 28 (g/mole) = 4.9 g

Which metal absorbs the greatest amount of heat energy
Fed [463]

Answer:

This question is incomplete but the completed question is in the attachment below. And the correct is b

Explanation:

Specific heat capacity can be defined as the amount of heat required to raise to raise 1 kg of a substance by 1 kelvin. Thus, this means that when the specific heat capacity of a substance is high, it takes more energy to increase the temperature of that substance. This also means that when different substances are subjected to the same amount of heat, the substance with the higher specific heat capacity will absorb less heat; for example at a beach, water has a very high specific heat capacity, thus when the sand in the beach is hot, the beach water is still relatively cold.

From the description above, <u>it can be seen that the metal with the least specific capacity will absorb the greatest amount of heat, thus the metal is lead</u> with the specific heat capacity of 0.129 J/(g. °C).
