Since the nucleophile is the actual attacking molecule or molecule that starts the reaction and allows for further steps in the mechanism to occur, it is the limiting reagent, as based on the amount of the nucleophile you have, the reaction will tend to proceed until you run out. The excess would be the sodium hydroxide, it is union part of the solution.

A rock weighing 26.0g placed graduated cylinder displacing the volume from 13.12ml to 25.3ml what is the density of the rock in
tia_tia [17]

density = mass /volume

1)mass of rock = 26.0 gram

2)volume of rock = volume of water it has displaced= 25.3-13.12 = 12.18

put the value of mass and volume in first equation and get the density value

What is the identity of the element, and how many neutrons does it have? An elements most stable ion forms an ionic compound wit
Pani-rosa [81]

Answer:

B. CA, 14

Explanation:

Atoms of elements contain small particles known as electrons, neutrons, and protons. The nucleus of an atom is made up of neutrons and protons which are at the center of the atom. Electrons on the other hand surrounds the nucleus. Electron has negative charge while proton has a positive charge. The number of neutrons is equivalent to the number of protons . In addition, the number of protons is equal to mass number minus the number of electrons.

For the compound XCl_{2}, it can be broken down into X^{2+} and 2Cl^{-}. Its ion has a mass of 34 and 18 electrons which means it has already lost 2 electrons.

Therefore:

For the given element, the number of electrons is 18+2 = 20 electrons.

The number of protons = 34 - 20 = 14.

And the number of neutrons is 14.

Only option B has the correct answer.

Complete combustion of 8.10 g of a hydrocarbon produced 25.9 g of CO2 and 9.27 g of H2O. What is the empirical formula for the h
balu736 [363]

CxHy     +  O2    -->    x CO2     +    y/2  H2O

 

Find the moles of CO2 :     18.9g  /  44 g/mol   =    .430 mol CO2   = .430 mol of C in compound

Find the moles of H2O:      5.79g / 18 g/mol     =     .322 mol H2O   = .166 mol of H in compound

 

Find the mass of C and H in the compound:

                             .430mol  x 12  =  5.16 g C

                              .166mol  x 1g   = .166g H   

 

When you add these up they indicate a mass of 5.33 g for the compound, not 5.80g as you stated in the problem.

Therefore it is likely that either the mass of the CO2 or the mass of H20 produced is incorrect (most likely a typo).

In any event, to find the formula, you would take the moles of C and H and convert to a whole number ratio (this is usually done by dividing both of them by the smaller value).
