Consider the reaction of diboron trioxide with carbon and chlorine. B2O3 (s) + 3C (s) + 3Cl2 (g) 2BCl3 (g) + 3CO (g) Determine t

he limiting reactant in a mixture containing 139 g of B2O3, 87.8 g of C, and 650 g of Cl2. Calculate the maximum mass (in grams) of boron trichloride, BCl3, that can be produced in the reaction. The limiting reactant is: B2O3 Cl2 C Amount of BCl3 formed = g

Answer:

Limiting reactant = B2O3

Amount of BCl3 formed = 468 g

Explanation:

The given reaction is:

B2O3 (s) + 3C (s) + 3Cl2 (g) \rightarrow 2BCl3 (g) + 3CO (g)

In order to identify the limiting reagent calculate the moles of B2O3, C and Cl2. The reagent with the lowest moles is the limiting reactant

Moles(B2O3)=\frac{Mass(B2O3)}{Mol.wt(B2O3)}=\frac{139g}{69.6g/mol}=1.997moles

Moles(C)=\frac{Mass(C)}{At.wt(C)}=\frac{87.8g}{12g/mol}=7.317moles

Moles(Cl2)=\frac{Mass(Cl2)}{Mol.wt(Cl2)}=\frac{650g}{70.9g/mol}=9.168moles

Since the moles of B2O3 < C < Cl2, the limiting reactant is B2O3

Based on the reaction stoichiometry:

1 mole of B2O3 produces 2 moles of BCl3

Hence, the number of moles of BCl3 produced under the experimental conditions = 2*1.997=3.994 moles

Mass(BCl3)= Moles* Mol.wt = 3.994 moles*117.17g/mol = 468 g

Which label belongs in the area marked X? can reproduce by budding can reproduce by fragmentation with regeneration reproduce in
marusya05 [52]

Answer:

Nucleus.

Explanation:

The sponge is a multicellular organism that consists of pores that allows water to move through the body. Sponges belong to the kingdom Animalia and phylum Porifera. Sponges can reproduce by budding. Sponges are placed in kingdom Animalia because they are unable to make their own food, made of more than one cell, and absence of cell wall.

Which of the following symbols represents a chlorine ion with a stable arrangement of eight valence electrons?
frozen [14]

A stable arrangement of eight valence electrons : ³⁵Cl⁻¹

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Chlorine is a halogen gas, located in group 17, p block

Chlorine has an atomic number of 17 and an atomic mass of 35

Electron configuration: [Ne] 3s²3p⁵

If we look at the electron configuration, then Cl will bind 1 more electron so that the configuration is stable like Argon (atomic number 18)

So by binding this one electron, chlorine forms negative ions (anions)

³⁵Cl⁻¹

B. Cl⁻² binds 2 electrons, exceeding the octet rule

C. Cl⁺¹, releases 1 electron, remains unstable

D. Cl, the neutral form of Cl, is still unstable with a 7-electron valence configuration
