Answer:

First, write an equation for the reaction involved.

Fe + CuSO4 ---> FeSO4 + Cu

Now, calculate the no. of moles added in the reaction. (n.o.m. = mass /molar mass)

No. of moles of Fe added = 2 / 55.8

= 0.0358 mol

No. of moles of CuSO4 = 7 / (63.5 +32.1+16x4)

= 0.04386 mol

From the equation, the mole ratio of Fe : CuSO4 = 1:1,

meaning 1 mole of Fe reacts with 1 mole of CuSO4.

It also indicates that the no. of moles reacted in Fe equals to the no. of moles reacted in CuSO4.

0.04386 > 0.0358

The no. of moles of CuSO4 is higher than that of Fe, meaning all moles of Fe will be reacted while not all CuSO4 reacts.

Hence Fe is the limiting reagent, and CuSO4 is in excess.

All 0.0358 moles of Fe reacts, meaning the no. of moles of CuSO4 left unreacted = 0.04386 - 0.0358

= 0.0080596mol

mass of CuSO4 unreacted = 0.0080596 x (63.5 +32.1+16x4)

= 1.28g

Buffer consists of undissociated acid (ha) and the ion made by dissociating the acid (a-). How does this system buffer a solutio
docker41 [41]

In buffer solution there is an equilibrium between the acid  HA and its conjugate base A⁻: HA(aq) ⇌ H⁺(aq) + A⁻(aq).

When acid (H⁺ ions) is added to the buffer solution, the equilibrium is shifted to the left, because conjugate base (A⁻) reacts with hydrogen cations from added acid, according to Le Chatelier's principle: H⁺(aq) + A⁻(aq) ⇄ HA(aq). So, the conjugate base (A⁻) consumes some hydrogen cations and pH is not decreasing (less H⁺ ions, higher pH of solution).

A buffer can be defined as a substance that prevents the pH of a solution from changing by either releasing or absorbing H⁺ in a solution.

Buffer is a solution that can resist pH change upon the addition of an acidic or basic components and it is able to neutralize small amounts of added acid or base, pH of the solution is relatively stable

Consider the following electronegativity values:
luda_lava [24]

Answer: option C. HF

Explanation: A polar bond is a covalent bond between two atoms where the electrons forming the bond are unequally distributed. Fluorine is more electronegative than hydrogen so the electrons in the bond are more closely associated with the fluorine atom than with the hydrogen atom.

Choose the best answer below. Which of the following reactions will have the largest equilibrium constant at 298 K?
Maurinko [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Relation between ΔG₀ and K ( equilibrium constant ) is as follows .

lnK =  -  ΔG₀ / RT

K = e^{-\frac{\triangle G_0}{RT}

The value of R and T are same for all reactions .

So higher the value of negative ΔG₀ , higher will be the value of K  .

Mg(s) + N₂0(g) → MgO(s) + N₂(g)

has the ΔG₀ value of -673 kJ which is highest negative value . So this reaction will have highest value of equilibrium constant K .
