Magnesium (used in the manufacture of light alloys) reacts with iron(III) chloride to form magnesium chloride and iron. A mixtur

yuradex [85]

Answer: The limiting reactant is magnesium and mass of excess reactant present in the vessel is 96.35 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 magnesium:

Given mass of magnesium = 41.0 g

Molar mass of magnesium = 24 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of magnesium}=\frac{41.0g}{24g/mol}=1.708mol$

For iron(III) chloride:

Given mass of iron(III) chloride = 175.0 g

Molar mass of iron(III) chloride = 162.2 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of iron(III) chloride}=\frac{175g}{162.2g/mol}=1.708mol$

The chemical equation for the reaction of magnesium and iron(III) chloride follows:

$3Mg+2FeCl_3\rightarrow 3MgCl_2+2Fe$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

3 moles of magnesium reacts with 2 moles of iron(III) chloride

So, 1.708 moles of magnesium will react with = $\frac{2}{3}\times 1.708=1.114mol$ of iron(III) chloride

As, given amount of iron(III) chloride is more than the required amount. So, it is considered as an excess reagent.

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

Moles of excess reactant left (iron(III) chloride) = [1.708 - 1.114] = 0.594 moles

Now, calculating the mass of iron(III) chloride from equation 1, we get:

Molar mass of iron(III) chloride = 162.2 g/mol

Moles of iron(III) chloride = 0.594 moles

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.594mol=\frac{\text{Mass of iron(III) chloride}}{162.2g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of iron(III) chloride}=(0.594mol\times 162.2g/mol)=96.35g$

Hence, the limiting reactant is magnesium and mass of excess reactant present in the vessel is 96.35 grams.

An experiment with 55 co takes 47.5 hours. at the end of the experiment, 1.90 ng of 55-co remains. if the half-life is 18.0 hour

Andru [333]

Answer:

$\boxed{\text{10.7 ng}}$

Explanation:

Let A₀ = the original amount of ⁵⁵Co .

The amount remaining after one half-life is ½A₀.

After two half-lives, the amount remaining is ½ ×½A₀ = (½)²A₀.

After three half-lives, the amount remaining is ½ ×(½)²A₀ = (½)³A₀.

The general formula for the amount remaining is:

A =A₀(½)ⁿ

where n is the number of half-lives

n = t/t_½

Data:

A = 1.90 ng

t = 45 h

t_½ = 18.0 h

Calculation:

(a) Calculate n

n = 45/18.0 = 2.5

(b) Calculate A

1.90 = A₀ × (½)^2.5

1.90 = A₀ × 0.178

A₀ = 1.90/0.178 = 10.7 ng

The original mass of ⁵⁵Co was $\boxed{\text{10.7 ng}}$ .
