Answer:

What is the maximum amount of calcium sulfate that can be formed? 53.1 grams CaSO4

What is the FORMULA for the limiting reagent? H2SO4

What amount of the excess reagent remains after the reaction is complete? 4.59 grams of Ca(OH)2

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of sulfuric acid = 38.3 grams

Molar mass of H2SO4 = 98.08 g/mol

Mass of calcium hydroxide = 33.5 grams

Molar mass of Ca(OH)2 = 74.09 g/mol

Step 2: The balanced equation

H2SO4 + Ca(OH)2 → CaSO4 + 2H2O

Step 3: Calculate moles of H2SO4

moles H2SO4 = mass H2SO4 / molar mass H2SO4

moles H2SO4 = 38.3 grams / 98.08 g/mol

moles H2SO4 = 0.390 moles

Step 4: Calculate moles of Ca(OH)2

moles Ca(OH)2 = 33.5 grams / 74.09 g/mol

moles Ca(OH)2 =0.452 moles

Step 5: Calculate limiting reactant

For 1 mol H2SO4, we need 1 mol of Ca(OH)2 to produce, 1 mol of CaSO4 and 2 mol of H2O

H2SO4 is the limiting reactant. It will completely be consumed (0.390 moles).

Ca(OH)2 is in excess. There will be consumed 0.390 moles

There will remain 0.452 - 0.390 = 0.062 moles

This is 0.062 * 74.09 g/mol = 4.59 grams

Step 6: Calculate moles of calcium sulfate

For 1 mol H2SO4, we need 1 mol of Ca(OH)2 to produce, 1 mol of CaSO4 and 2 mol of H2O

For 0.390 moles of H2SO4, there will be produced 0.390 moles of CaSO4

Step 7: Calculate mass of CaSO4

Mass CaSO4 = moles CaSO4 * molar mass CaSO4

Mass CaSO4 = 0.390 moles * 136.14 g/mol

Mass of CaSO4 = 53.1 grams

How do you balance the equation in number one?

____NaNO3 + ___PbO --> ___Pb(NO3)2 + ___Na[2]O

To balace the eqaution, you need to have the same number of atoms for each element on both the reactant (left) and product (right) side. 

To start off, you wanna know the number of atoms in each element on both sides, so take it apart:

[reactants]        [product]
Na- 1               Na- 2

N- 1               N- 2(it's 2 because the the subscript [2] is outside of the parenthesis)

O- 4              O- 7 (same reason as above) 

Pb- 1            Pb- 1 

Na is not balanced out, so add a coefficient to make it the same on both sides.In this case, multiply by 2: 

2NaNO3

Now Na is balanced, but the N and O are also effected by this, so they also have to be multiplied by 2 and they become: 

Na- 2             Na- 2 

N- 2              N- 2 (it balanced out) 

O- 7 (coefficient times subscript, plus lone O)  O- 7 (balanced out) 

Pb was already balanced so no need to mess with it, just put a 1 where needed (it doesn't change anything). 

Now to put it back together, it will look like this: 

2NaNO3 + 1PbO --> 1Pb(NO3)2 + 1Na[2]O

Write a molecular equation for the gas-evolution reaction that occurs when you mix aqueous hydroiodic acid and aqueous sodium su
Leona [35]
First, we construct the reaction equation:

Na₂SO₃ + 2HCl → 2NaCl + SO₂ + H₂O

H₂SO₃ is formed as an intermediate but decomposes to water and SO₂ gas.
