No, it is impossible.

Chemical reactions does not change or turn elements into different elements.

Changing an element implies to modify its atomic number (the number of protons in the nucleus).

Chemical reactions do not modifiy the nuclei of the elements involved.

Chemical reactions imply the formation or rupture of bonds between elements. Bonds are union of elements at the level of electrons.So, formation or rupture of bonds involve only a different combination of the atoms, never modifications of the atoms at the level of nuclei or parts of nuclei.

Answer- The particles in a solid gain enough energy to overcome the bonding forces holding them firmly in place. Typically, during melting, the particles start to move about, staying close to their neighbouring particles, then move more freely.

if you mixed 72.9g hydrochloric acid(aq) with 150g silver acetate(aq), what would be the limiting reagent?​
horsena [70]

Answer:

                      Silver Acetate would be the Limiting Reagent.

Explanation:

                    The balance chemical equation for the given double displacement reaction is as;

                            HCl + AgC₂H₃O₂ → AgCl + HC₂H₃O₂

Step 1: <u>Calculate Moles of Starting Materials:</u>

Moles of HCl:

                      Moles  =  Mass / M.Mass

                      Moles  =  72.9 g / 36.46

                      Moles =  1.99 moles

Moles of AgC₂H₃O₂:

                      Moles  =  150 g / 166.91 g/mol

                      Moles  =  0.898 moles

Step 2: <u>Find out Limiting reagent as:</u>

According to balance chemical equation.

              1 mole of HCl reacts with  =  1 mole of AgC₂H₃O₂

So,

         1.99 moles of HCl will react with  =  X moles of AgC₂H₃O₂

Solving for X,

                     X =  1.99 mol × 1 mol / 1 mol

                     X =  1.99 mol of AgC₂H₃O₂

Hence, to completely consume 1.99 moles of Hydrochloric acid we will require 1.99 moles of Silver Acetate, But, we are provided with only 0.898 moles of Silver Acetate. This means Silver Acetate will consume first in the reaction therefore, it is the LIMITING REAGENT.
