<u>Ans: A) HCl</u>

Neutralization reaction is one where an acid reacts with a base to form salt and water.

The given reaction is;

HCl + NaOH → NaCl + H2O

In general, an acid is the species which loses a proton i.e. H+ ion. Whereas base accepts a proton. Therefore the molecule where the proton count or the number of hydrogens decreases as the reaction proceeds can be identified as an acid.

Here, as the reaction progresses, HCl loses its hydrogen hence HCl is an acid i.e. hydrochloric acid.

NaOH, sodium hydroxide is a base

NaCl, sodium chloride is a salt.

What is the name of a solution whose concentration of solute is equal to the maximum concentration that is predicted from the so
faltersainse [42]

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is saturated solution.

<u>Explanation:</u>

For the given options:

Dilute solutions are defined as the solutions in which solute particles are present in less very amount than the solvent particles.

Unsaturated solutions are defined as the solutions where more and more of solute particles can be dissolved in the given amount of solvent.

Saturated solutions are defined as the solutions where no more solute particles can be dissolved in the solvent.  The concentration of the solute particles that can be dissolved in a solution is maximum.

Supersaturated solutions are defined as the solutions where more amount of solute particles are present than the solvent particles.

From the above information, we conclude that the given solution is saturated solution.

How many moles of carbon dioxide gas should be produced when 10.0 g of C2H6 are combusted at STP?
Finger [1]

Answer:

                    0.665 moles of CO₂

Explanation:

                     The balance chemical equation for the combustion of Ethane is as follow:

                            2 C₂H₆ + 7 O₂ → 4 CO₂ + 6 H₂O

Step 1: <u>Calculate moles of C₂H₆ as;</u>

                              Moles  =  Mass  /  M.Mass

Putting values,

                              Moles  =  10.0 g / 30.07 g/mol

                              Moles  =  0.3325 moles

Step 2: <u>Calculate Moles of CO₂ as;</u>

According to balance chemical equation,

                    2 moles of C₂H₆ produced  =  4 moles of CO₂

So,

             0.3325 moles of C₂H₆ will produce  =  X moles of CO₂

Solving for X,

                      X  =  0.3325 mol × 4 mol ÷ 2 mol

                      X = 0.665 moles of CO₂
