Answer:

Moles of hydrogen formed = 3.5 moles

Explanation:

Given that:-

Moles of aluminium= 4.0 mol

Moles of hydrogen bromide = 7.0 mol

According to the reaction:-

2Al_{(s)}+6HBr_{(aq)}\rightarrow 2AlBr_3_{(aq)}+3H_2_{(g)}

2 moles of aluminum react with 6 moles of hydrogen bromide

1 mole of aluminum react with 6/2 moles of hydrogen bromide

4 moles of aluminum react with (6/2)*4 moles of hydrogen bromide

Moles of hydrogen bromide = 12 moles

Available moles of hydrogen bromide = 7.0 moles

Limiting reagent is the one which is present in small amount. Thus, hydrogen bromide is limiting reagent. (7.0 < 12)

The formation of the product is governed by the limiting reagent. So,

6 moles of hydrogen bromide on reaction forms 3 moles of hydrogen

1 moles of hydrogen bromide on reaction forms 3/6 moles of hydrogen

7 moles of hydrogen bromide on reaction forms (3/6)*7 moles of hydrogen

<u>Moles of hydrogen formed = 3.5 moles</u>

Kinetic energy is 1/2m*v^2
They already halved the mass for you and they already squared the velocity for you. I’m unsure why you’re even asking this question. It’s simple multiplication at this point.
(27.5kg)*(4m^2/s^2) = 110 Jules

How does a chemist count the number of particles in a given number of moles of a substance?
jolli1 [7]
The chemist the count the number of particles (Atoms, Molecules or Formula Unit) in a given number of moles of a substance by using following relationship.

                              Moles  =  # of Particles / 6.022 × 10²³

Or,

                              # of Particles  =  Moles × 6.022 × 10²³

So, from above relation it is found that 1 mole of any substance contains exactly 6.022 × 10²³ particles. Greater the number of moles greater will be the number of particles.

Which solution has a molality of 0.25m nacl?
Solnce55 [7]

Molality can be expressed by moles of solute over kilograms of solvent. The question asks the molality of 0.25m NaCl. 0.25m NaCl is equal to 0.25 moles of NaCl over 1 kg of water.
