<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 of the following is generally FALSE? Group of answer choices Elements in the same group have the same valence electron con
Whitepunk [10]

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Generally, when we move from top to bottom in a group then there occur increase in the number of electrons due to which there will also occur increase in the number of shells.

As atomic size is the distance between the nucleus and valence shell of an atom. Hence, more is the number of shells present in an atom more will be its atomic radius.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement atomic radius of elements in a group decreases as you go from top to bottom, is generally FALSE.

What is the mass of oxygen that can be produced from 2.79 moles of lead(ll) nitrate
denis23 [38]

1.38 moles of oxygen

Explanation:

Thermal decomposition of Lead (II) nitrate is shown by the balanced equation below;

2Pb(NO₃)₂ → 2PbO + 4NO₂ + O₂

The mole ration of Lead (II) nitrate to oxygen is 2: 1

Therefore 2.76 moles of  Lead (II) nitrate will lead to production of? moles of oxygen;

2: 1

2.76: x

Cross-multiply;

2x = 2.76 * 1

x = 2.76 / 2

x = 1.38
