Answer: Bromine is the limiting reactant

Explanation:

First of all let's generate a balanced equation for the reaction

2Li + Br2 —> 2LiBr

Molar Mass of Li = 7g/mol

Molar Mass of Br2 = 2x80 = 160g/mol

From the question given, were told that 25g of Li and 25g Br2 were present at the take-off of the reaction. Converting these Masses to mole, we have:

Number of mole of Li = 25/7 = 3.6moles

Number of mole of Br2 = 25/160 = 0.156mol.

To know which is the limiting reactant, we have to compare the ratio of the number of mole of experimental Li and Br2 to that of theoretical Li and Br2

For the experimental yield:

Li : Br2 = 3.6/ 0.156 = 23 : 1

For the theoretical yield:

Li : Br = 2 : 1

From the above, we see clear that Br2 is the limiting reactant because according to the equation( which gives the theoretical yield), for every 2moles of Li, 1mole of Br2 is used up. But this is not so from the experiment conducted as 23moles required 1mole of Br2.

Calculate the equilibrium number of vacancies per cubic meter for copper at 1000K. The energy for vacancy formation is 0.9eV/ato
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

Therefore the equilibrium number of vacancies per unit cubic meter =2.34×10²⁴ vacancies/ mole

Explanation:

The equilibrium number of of vacancies is denoted by N_v.

It is depends on

  • total no. of atomic number(N)
  • energy required for vacancy
  • Boltzmann's constant (k)= 8.62×10⁻⁵ev K⁻¹
  • temperature (T).

N_v=Ne^{-\frac{Q_v}{kT} }

To find  equilibrium number of of vacancies we have find N.

N=\frac{N_A\ \rho}{A_{cu}}

Here ρ= 8.45 g/cm³  =8.45 ×10⁶m³

N_A= Avogadro Number = 6.023×10²³

A_{Cu}= 63.5 g/mole

N=\frac{6.023\times 10^{23}\times 8.45\times 10^{6}}{63.5}

   =8.01\times 10^{28 g/mole

Here Q_v=0.9 ev/atom , T= 1000k

Therefore the equilibrium number of vacancies per unit cubic meter,

N_v=( 8.01\times 10^{28}) e^{-(\frac{0.9}{8.62\times10^{-5}\times 1000})

   =2.34×10²⁴ vacancies/ mole

In a synthesis reaction you start with 1.7L of Hydrogen how many liters of water will be produced?
jolli1 [7]

15.3 litres of water will be produced if we take 1.7 litres of Hydrogen

Explanation:

Let's take a look over synthesis reaction;

H_{2}+ O_{2}<u>                         </u>H_{2}O<u />

<u>Balancing the chemical reaction;</u>

2H_{2} +O_{2}<u>                        </u>2H_{2}O<u />

Thus, 2 moles of hydrogen molecules are required to form 2 moles of water molecules.

<u>Equating the molarity;</u>

<u />\frac{1.7*1}{2*2} = \frac{x*1}{2*18}

           (Since, the molecular mass of hyd and water is 2 and 18 respectively)

x=\frac{1.7*2*18}{2*2}

x= 15.3 litres.

Thus,15.3 L of water will be produced if we take 1.7 litres of Hydrogen in a synthesis reaction.

Which term names enzymes in the body that speed up chemical reactions?
Viefleur [7K]

Answer:

Catalyst speeds up the chemical reactions. Catalyst is the compound that adds to the chemical reaction so that it happen more quickly. Catalyst without being consumed in the reaction accelerates the reaction. It lowers down the activation energy of the transition state and thus accelerates the reaction.

Hope this helped!

Answer:

The light emitted by a light bulb is a form of radiation that occurs when the filament heats up and its thermal emission gains enough energy to move into the visible spectrum.

Explanation:

Light bulbs contain a filament which is heated up electrically. When this filament is heated up,energy in the form of heat is imparted to the electrons in the filament.

This thermal excitation of electrons ultimately leads to emission of light in the viable spectrum. This light is now radiated through a light bulb.
