Answer:

D) hydrochloric acid.

Explanation:

  • The balanced equation for the mentioned reaction is:

<em>Zn(s) + 2HCl(aq) → ZnCl₂(aq) + H₂(g),</em>

<em></em>

It is clear that 1.0 moles of Zn react with 2.0 moles of HCl to produce 1.0 moles of ZnCl₂ and 1.0 mole of H₂.

  • From stichiometry; Zn reacts with HCl with (1: 2) molar ratio.

<em>∴ 2.0 mol of Zn (the remaining 2.0 mol is in excess) react completely with 4.0 mol of HCl with (1: 2) molar ratio.</em>

<em />

So,

the limiting reactant is HCl and the excess reactant is Zn.

<em>Thus, the right choice is: D) hydrochloric acid.</em>

At a given temperature the vapor pressures of hexane and octane are 183 mmhg and 59.2 mmhg, respectively. Calculate the total va
Bas_tet [7]

Total vapor pressure can be calculated using partial vapor pressures and mole fraction as follows:

P=X_{A}P_{A}+X_{B}P_{B}

Here, X_{A} is mole fraction of A, X_{B} is mole fraction of B, P_{A} is partial pressure of A and P_{B} is partial pressure of B.

The mole fraction of A and B are related to each other as follows:

X_{A}+X_{B}=1

In this problem, A is hexane and B is octane, mole fraction of hexane is given 0.580 thus, mole fraction of octane can be calculated as follows:

X_{octane}=1-X_{hexane}=1-0.58=0.42

Partial pressure of hexane and octane is given 183 mmHg and 59.2 mmHg respectively.

Now, vapor pressure can be calculated as follows:

P=X_{hexane}P_{hexane}+X_{octane}P_{octane}

Putting the values,

P=(0.580)(183 mmHg)+(0.420)(59.2 mmHg)=131 mmHg

Therefore, total vapor pressure over the solution of hexane and octane is 131 mmHg.

4,410 kJ

Explanation:

Gravitational Potential Enegry (GPE) is calculated as;

GPE = <em>m*g*h</em>                           where;

m = mass (kg)

g = gravity (m/s²)

h = height (meters)

= 90 * 9.8 * 5000

= 4,410,000‬ joules

= 4,410 kJ
