Answer:

0 g.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since the reaction between methane and oxygen is:

CH_4+2O_2\rightarrow CO_2+2H_2O

If 0.963 g of methane react with 7.5 g of oxygen the first step is to identify the limiting reactant for which we compute the available moles of methane and the moles of methane consumed by the 7.5 g of oxygen:

n_{CH_4}=0.963gCH_4*\frac{1molCH_4}{16gCH_4}=0.0602molCH_4\\ \\n_{CH_4}^{consumed}=7.5gO_2*\frac{1molO_2}{32gO_2}*\frac{1molCH_4}{2molO_2} =0.117molCH_4

Thus, since oxygen theoretically consumes more methane than the available, we conclude the methane is the limiting reactant, for which it will be completely consumed, therefore, no remaining methane will be left over.

left\ over=0g

Regards.

Which of the following molecules would have the strongest London Dispersion Force?
weeeeeb [17]

Answer: D

Explanation:

London forces become stronger as the atom in question becomes larger, and to a smaller degree for large molecules. [4] This is due to the increased polarizability of molecules with larger, more dispersed electron clouds. The polarizability is a measure of ease with which electrons can be redistributed; a large polarizability implies that the electrons are more easily redistributed. This trend is exemplified by the halogens (from smallest to largest: F 2 , Cl2 , Br 2 , I 2 ). The same increase of dispersive attraction occurs within and between organic molecules in the order RF<RCL<RBr<RI, or with other more polarizable heteroatoms. [5] Fluorine and chlorine are

gases at room temperature, bromine is a liquid, and iodine is a solid. The London forces are thought to be arise from the motion of electrons.

Muriatic acid, an industrial grade of concentrated HCl, is used to clean masonry and cement. Its concentration is 11.7 M. For ro
Nata [24]

Answer:

\boxed{\text{199 mL}}

Explanation:

1. Calculate the moles of HCl  

n = \text{25.4 g} \times \dfrac{\text{1 mol}}{\text{36.46 g}} = \text{0.6967 mol}

2. Calculate the volume of dilute HCl

\begin{array}{rcl}\text{Molar concentration}& =& \dfrac{\text{moles}}{\text{litres}}\\\\3.50 & = & \dfrac{0.6967}{V}\\\\3.50V & = & 0.6967\\\\V & = & \dfrac{0.6967}{3.50}\\\\V & = & \text{0.199 L} =\textbf{199 mL}\end{array}\\\text{The volume of muriatic acid needed is }\boxed{\textbf{199 mL}}
