The balanced chemical reaction would be as follows:
<span>5P4O6 +8I2 ---> 4P2I4 +3P4O10
We are given the amount of reactants used for the reaction. We first need to determine the limiting reactant from the given amounts. We do as follows:
8.80 g P4O6 (1 mol / </span><span>219.88 g) = 0.04 mol P4O6
12.37 g I2 ( 1 mol / </span><span>253.809 g ) = 0.05 mol I2
Therefore, the limiting reactant is iodine since less it is being consumed completely in the reaction. We calculate the amount of P2I4 prepared as follows:
0.05 mol I2 ( 4 mol P2I4 / 8 mol I2 ) (</span><span>569.57 g / 1 mol) = 14.24 g P2I4</span>
Organic chemistry is all about CARBON!!!!!!
Gain enough kinetic energy to get past each other. Ad you heat up a substance, the temperature increases as does the kinetic energy of the particles. At a point the temperature of the substance will stop increasing. The energy is now being used to increase the potential and move the particles further apart.
