Answer:
d. Copper (II) sulfate
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of Al = 1.25 g
Mass of CuSO₄ = 3.28 g
What is limiting reactant = ?
Solution:
Chemical equation:
2Al + 3CuSO₄ → Al₂ (SO₄)₃ + 3Cu
Number of moles of Al:
Number of moles = mass/molar mass
Number of moles = 1.25 g/ 27 g/mol
Number of moles = 0.05 mol
Number of moles of CuSO₄:
Number of moles = mass/molar mass
Number of moles = 3.28 g/ 159.6 g/mol
Number of moles = 0.02 mol
now we will compare the moles of reactant with product.
Al : Al₂ (SO₄)₃
2 : 1
0.05 : 1/2×0.05=0.025 mol
Al : Cu
2 : 3
0.05 : 3/2×0.05 = 0.075 mol
CuSO₄ : Al₂ (SO₄)₃
3 : 1
0.02 : 1/3×0.02=0.007 mol
CuSO₄ : Cu
3 : 3
0.02 : 0.02
Less number of moles of reactants are produced by CuSO₄ thus it will act as limiting reactant.
25.9 kJ/mol. (3 sig. fig. as in the heat capacity.)

What's the enthalpy change of this process?
for
. By convention, the enthalpy change
measures the energy change for each mole of a process.
.
The heat capacity is the least accurate number in these calculation. It comes with three significant figures. As a result, round the final result to three significant figures. However, make sure you keep at least one additional figure to minimize the risk of rounding errors during the calculation.
I think the correct answer would be negative change in enthalpy, low temperature and negative entropy. Freezing of water is an exothermic process which means heat is released to the surroundings so negative enthalpy. And this is seen in the change to a lower temperature. Entropy is negative which signifies that there is more order as water freezes.
Stable isotopes are not radioactive nor dangerous.
Unstable isostopes are radioactive and have different mass of the element.
