Answer:
The limiting reactant is H₂
Explanation:
The reaction of hydrogen (H₂) and carbon monoxide (CO) to produce methanol (CH₃OH) is the following:
2H₂(g) + CO(g) → CH₃OH(g)
From the balanced chemical equation, we can see that 1 mol of CO reacts wIth 2 moles of H₂. So, the stoichiometric ratio is:
2 mol H₂/1 mol CO = 2.0
We have 500 mol of CO and 750 mol of H₂, so we calculate the ratio to establish a comparison:
750 mol H₂/500 mol CO = 1.5
Since 2.0 > 1.5, we have fewer moles of H₂ than are needed to completely react with 500 moles of CO. In fact, we need 1000 moles of H₂ and we have 750 moles. So, the limiting reactant is H₂.
I'm sorry but could you tell me IE2
I couldn't asks for details
Atoms do not always contain the same number of electrons and protons, although this state is common. When an atom has an equal number of electrons and protons, it has an equal number of negative electric charges (the electrons) and positive electric charges (the protons). The total electric charge of the atom is therefore zero and the atom is said to be neutral. In contrast, when an atom loses or gains an electron (or the rarer case of losing or gaining a proton, which requires a nuclear reaction), the total charges add up to something other than zero.
Hey there!
H₃PO₄
Find molar mass.
H: 3 x 1.008 = 3.024
P: 1 x 30.97 = 30.97
O: 4 x 16 = 64
---------------------------------
97.994 grams
The mass of 1 mole of H₃PO₄ is 97.994 grams.
We have 4.5 moles.
97.994 x 4.5 = 440
The mass of 4.5 moles of H₃PO₄ is 440 grams.
Hope this helps!
Due to the variables that each inquiry has, Scientific inquiry follows a path of questioning and testing a hypothesis, however this changes in response to specific details.
