Limiting Reactants—————-

Chemistry
1 answer:
denis-greek [22]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

21.8 grams.

Explanation:

Molar mass data from a modern periodic table:

  • Mg: 24.301;
  • O: 15.999.

How many moles of MgO will be produced if Mg is the limiting reactant?

Number of moles of Mg:

\displaystyle n = \frac{m}{M} = \frac{16.3}{24.301} = 0.670644\;\text{mol}.

The ratio between the coefficient of Mg and that of MgO is 2:2. Two moles of Mg will make two moles of MgO. 0.670644 moles of MgO will be produced if Mg is the limiting reactant.

How many moles of MgO will be produced if O₂ is the limiting reactant?

Number of moles of O₂:

\displaystyle n = \frac{m}{M} = \frac{4.33}{15.999} = 0.270642\;\text{mol}.

The ratio between the coefficient of O₂ and that of MgO is 1:2. One mole of O₂ will make two moles of MgO. 2\times 0.270642 = 0.541284\;\text{mol} of MgO will be produced if O₂ is in excess.

How many moles of MgO will be produced?

0.541284 is smaller than 0.670644. Only 0.541284 moles of MgO will be produced since O₂ will run out before all 16.3 grams of Mg is consumed.

What's the mass of 0.541284 moles of MgO?

Formula mass of MgO:

24.301 + 15.999 = 40.300\;\text{g}\cdot\text{mol}^{-1}.

Mass of 0.541284 moles of MgO:

m = n \cdot M = 0.541284\times 40.300 = 21.8\;\text{g}.

How many moles of ammonium sulfate can be from the reaction of 30.0 mol of NH3 with H2SO4 according to the following equation: 2
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

15 moles of  ammonium sulfate would be formed from 30 moles of ammonia.

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of ammonium sulfate formed = ?

Number of moles of ammonia = 30.0 mol

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2NH₃  +   H₂SO₄  →  (NH₄)₂SO₄

Now we will compare the moles of ammonium sulfate with ammonia.

                           NH₃           :           (NH₄)₂SO₄

                             2              :               1

                            30.0          :              1/2×30.0 = 15.0 mol

So 15 moles of  ammonium sulfate would be formed from 30 moles of ammonia.

I am finding the formula of a compound that has 60% Carbon, 32% Oxygen, and 8% Hydrogen. Although, when it comes to actually cre
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

To determine the molecular formula of the compound, the empirical formula must be determined first. To determine the empirical formula, the percentage of each constituent is divided by its molar mass. This is shown below

Carbon = 60/12 = 5

Oxygen = 32/16 = 2

Hydrogen = 8/1 = 8

The next step is to divide each ratio by the smallest value. The smallest value is 2. It becomes

Carbon = 5/2 = 2.5

It is approximated to 3

Oxygen = 2/2 = 1

Hydrogen = 8/2 = 4

Therefore, the empirical formula is

C3H4O

From the given relative molecular mass of the compound, the molecular formula can be determined
