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>

How many grams of NaCl are required to make 150.0 mL of a 5.000 m solution
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

The  grams   of NaCl  that are required  to  make  150.0 ml of  a  5.000 M  solution is  43.875 g


calculation

Step 1:calculate  the  number of moles

moles =  molarity  x volume  in L

volume  = 150 ml / 1000 = 0.15 L

= 0.15 L  x 5.000  M  = 0.75  moles

Step 2:  calculate mass

mass =  moles x  molar mass

molar mass  of NaCl = 23 + 35.5 = 58.5 mol /L


mass is therefore =0.75  moles  x 58.5  mol /l =43.875 g

Yasmin's teacher asks her to make a supersaturated saline solution. Her teacher tells her that the solubility of the salt is 360
Aleks [24]

Answer:

She can add 380 g of salt to 1 L of hot water (75 °C) and stir until all the salt dissolves. Then, she can carefully cool the solution to room temperature.  

Explanation:

A supersaturated solution contains more salt than it can normally hold at a given temperature.

A saturated solution at 25 °C contains 360 g of salt per litre, and water at 70 °C can hold more salt.

Yasmin can dissolve 380 g of salt in 1 L of water at 70 °C. Then she can carefully cool the solution to 25 °C, and she will have a supersaturated solution.

B and D are wrong. The most salt that will dissolve at 25 °C is 360 g. She will have a saturated solution.

C is wrong. Only 356 g of salt will dissolve at 5 °C, so that's what Yasmin will have in her solution at 25 °C. She will have a dilute solution.
