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

Which part of the mantle is still a solid but flows like a thick, heavy liquid?
marusya05 [52]

Hello!

Your answer is A, asthenosphere

<u>The asthenosphere is a part of the mantle</u>. It helps move the plates in the Earth.

It is <u>below the lithosphere,</u> between <u>80 and 200 km</u> below the surface.

Therfore, the asthenosphere is <u>the part of the mantle that is still a solid but flows like a thick, heavy liquid.</u>

<u />

Hope this helps!

Have a great day!

How many grams of KCl is needed to make .75 L of a 1 M solution of KCl?
Zielflug [23.3K]

Answer:

The answer to your question is 25.9 g of KCl

Explanation:

Data

Grams of KCl = ?

Volume = 0.75 l

Molarity = 1 M

Formula

Molarity = \frac{number of moles}{volume}

Solve for number of moles

Number of moles = Molarity x volume

Substitution

Number of moles = 1 x 0.75

Simplification

Number of moles = 0.75 moles

Molecular mass KCl = 39 + 35.5 = 34.5

Use proportions to find the grams of KCl

                          34.5 g of KCl ----------------  1 mol

                             x                  ----------------  0.75 moles

                            x = (0.75 x 34.5) / 1

                            x = 25.9 g of KCl
