In order to understand what is the limiting reactant is useful to convert the masses of reactants into moles. The molecular masses are:

C_7H_6O_3 = 138\frac{g}{mol}\\ C_4H_6O_3 = 100\frac{g}{mol}

Converting masses into moles:

70\g \C_7H_6O_3\cdot \frac{1\ mol}{138\ g} = 0.5\ mol\ C_7H_6O_3

80\ g\ C_4H_6O_3\cdot \frac{1\ mol}{100\ g} = 0.8\ mol\ C_4H_6O_3

In the reaction, 2 moles of C_7H_6O_3 are necessary to react with 1 mol of C_4H_6O_3. Following this ratio:

0.8\ mol\ C_4H_6O_3\cdot \frac{2\ mol\ C_7H_6O_3}{1\ mol\ C_4H_6O_3} = 1.6\ mol\ C_7H_6O_3

We have only 0.5 mol of C_7H_6O_3, i.e, we don't have enough amount of salicylic acid, therefore, this is the limiting reactant.

Pls hurrry<br>what are greenhouse effect 1 paragraph and come friends
Kay [80]
The greenhouse effect is a natural process that warms the Earth’s surface. When the Sun’s energy reaches the Earth’s atmosphere, some of it is reflected back to space and the rest is absorbed and re-radiated by greenhouse gases.
Greenhouse gases include water vapour, carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, ozone and some artificial chemicals such as chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs).
The absorbed energy warms the atmosphere and the surface of the Earth. This process maintains the Earth’s temperature at around 33 degrees Celsius warmer than it would otherwise be, allowing life on Earth to exist.

Ok so I have 3 beakers of clear liquid each holding a different substance, Water, Magnesium Sulphate and Sodium Carbonate how ca
nataly862011 [7]
For water you could add oil..ex: cooking oil separates form water because water is heavier than oil.

For Magnesium Sulfate you could add Sodium Carbonate..ex: Sodium Carb reacts to Mg Sulfate adding a darker hue to the liquid and adding a lot of bubbles.

For Sodium Carbonate you could add Sulfuric Acid..ex: Sulfuric Acid would add a reaction to the Sodium Carb that would resembling water boiling

I’ll $ashapp anyone who knows the answers to these!!! Leave your $tag
kvv77 [185]

Answer:

below

Explanation:

1. The areas that have latitudes which are closer to the equator are generally hotter than those areas that are closer to the north and south poles.

2. Temperature is inversely related to latitude, as latitude increases from the equator (moving north or south) the temperature decreases.

Hope this helps! best of luck <3

PLSSS HELP MEE 100 POINTS!!!!!!! How many atoms of each element does magnesium hydroxide, Mg(OH)2, contain? Magnesium = 1 atom,
Basile [38]

It would be Magnesium = 1 atom, Oxygen = 2 atoms, Hydrogen = 2 atoms. It has 5 atoms total. There is 1 magnesium and you multiply each element by the the 2 outside the parenthesis to get 2 oxygen and 2 hydrogen.
