Answer:

Absorption and emission spectra

Explanation:

This is occurs when an atom either absorbs or emits energy when bombarded by a source.

Neils Bohr predicted that electrons moves round in the atom in distinct orbitals according to their energy. An electron in its ground state can become excited if it gains sufficient energy which surpasses that of its ground state configuration. An atom can also move from higher energy levels to lower ones. During the descent, energy is given off in form of emission spectra.

Absorption occurs when electrons in an atom absorbs energy from incoming radiation and they re-radiate it in all directions. This is given off as a spectra and can be observed for such electron.

Hydrogen chloride gas and oxygen gas react to form water and chlorine gas. A reaction mixture initially contains 53.2 g of hydro

Sergio [31]

Answer: The mass of the excess reactant (oxygen gas) is 3.136 grams

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$ .....(1)

For HCl:

Given mass of HCl = 53.2 g

Molar mass of HCl = 36.5 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of HCl}=\frac{53.2g}{36.5g/mol}=1.46mol$

For oxygen gas:

Given mass of oxygen gas = 26.5 g

Molar mass of oxygen gas = 32 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of oxygen gas}=\frac{26.5g}{32g/mol}=0.828mol$

The chemical equation for the reaction of HCl and oxygen gas follows:

$2HCl+O_2\rightarrow H_2O+Cl_2$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of HCl reacts with 1 mole of oxygen gas

So, 1.46 moles of HCl will react with = $\frac{1}{2}\times 1.46=0.73mol$ of oxygen gas

As, given amount of oxygen gas is more than the required amount. So, it is considered as an excess reagent.

Thus, HCl is considered as a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of product.

Excess moles of oxygen gas = (0.828 - 0.73) = 0.098 moles

Now, calculating the mass of oxygen gas from equation 1, we get:

Molar mass of oxygen gas = 32 g/mol

Excess moles of oxygen gas = 0.098 moles

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.098mol=\frac{\text{Mass of oxygen gas}}{32g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of oxygen gas}=(0.098mol\times 32g/mol)=3.136g$

Hence, the mass of the excess reactant (oxygen gas) is 3.136 grams

what does the number of the places after the decimal in a measurement tell you about the precision of the instrument that record

snow_lady [41]

The more numbers after the decimal point there are, the more precise the instrument which recorded it is. For example, if one instrument during seismic activity records that the magnitude of the earthquake was 2.3, and another instrument recorded that it was 2.3645, the second instrument would have shown to be more precise.
