Muriatic acid, HCl, is often used to remove rust. A solution of muriatic acid, HCl, reacts with Fe2O3 deposits on industrial equ

ipment.
How many liters of 5.50 M HCl would be needed to react completely with 439 g Fe2O3? (molar mass of HCl = 36.46 g/mol) (molar mass of Fe2O3 =159.70 g/mol).
Use the equation:
Fe2O3(s) + 6HCl(aq) → 2FeCl3(aq) + 3H2O,
to solve this problem.

Answer:

3L

Explanation:

Step 1:

The balanced equation for the reaction.

Fe2O3(s) + 6HCl(aq) → 2FeCl3(aq) + 3H2O

Step 2 :

Determination of the masses of HCl and Fe2O3 that reacted from the balanced equation. This is illustrated below:

Molar mass of Fe2O3 = 159.70g/mol

Molar mass of HCl = 36.46 g/mol

Mass of HCl from the balanced equation = 6 x 36.46 = 218.76g

From the balanced equation above,

159.70g of Fe2O3 reacted with 218.76g of HCl

Step 3:

Determination of the mass of HCl needed to react with 439g of Fe2O3. This is illustrated below:

From the balanced equation above,

159.70g of Fe2O3 reacted with 218.76g of HCl.

Therefore, 439g of Fe2O3 will react with = (439 x 218.76) /159.70 = 601.35g of HCl.

Step 4:

Conversion of 601.35g of HCl to mole. This is illustrated below:

Molar mass of HCl = 36.46 g/mol

Mass of HCl = 601.35g

Number of mole = Mass/Molar Mass

Number of mole of HCl = 601.35/36.46

Number of mole of HCl = 16.49 moles

Step 5:

Determination of the volume of the HCl that reacted.

This is illustrated below:

Mole of HCl = 16.49 moles

Molarity of HCl = 5.50 M

Volume =?

Molarity = mole /Volume

Volume = mole /Molarity

Volume = 16.49/5.5

Volume of HCl = 3L

Therefore the volume of HCl needed for the reaction is 3L

What is the limiting reactant when 20g CH4 react with 15g H20?
Art [367]

Answer:

H₂O.

Explanation:

  • It is clear from the balanced equation:

<em>CH₄ + 2H₂O → CO₂ + 4H₂.</em>

that 1.0  mole of CH₄ reacts with 2.0 moles of H₂O to produce 1.0 mole of CO₂ and 4.0 moles of H₂.

  • To determine the limiting reactant, we should calculate the no. of moles of (20 g) CH₄ and (15 g) H₂O using the relation:

<em>n = mass/molar mass</em>

<em></em>

no. of moles of CH₄ = mass/molar mass = (20 g)/(16 g/mol) = 1.25 mol.

no. of moles of H₂O = mass/molar mass = (15 g)/(18 g/mol) = 0.833 mol.

  • <em>from the balanced reaction, 1.0  mole of CH₄ reacts with 2.0 moles of H₂O.</em>

So, from the calculated no. of moles: 0.4167 mole of CH₄ reacts completely with 0.833 mole of H₂O and the remaining of CH₄ will be in excess.

<u><em>So, the limiting reactant is H₂O.</em></u>

An ice cream company decides to make a new lower calorie flavor,but testers reported that the flavor wasnt as good as the origin
IgorLugansk [536]

Answer:

Yes, the given instance is an example of a trade-off.

Explanation:

  • The trade-off seems to be a strategy to minimize or surrender one or more favorable results in consideration for increasing either receiving other favorable results to optimize cumulative benefit or efficacy within such conditions.
  • The above is indeed a trade-off since the participants are experimenting in exchange again for ice cream individuals have to enjoy. The ice cream manufacturer always gets a review of the technician in exchange for free ice cream.

Suppose you want to determine which type of paper falls the fastest; an unfolded sheet of paper, a sheet of paper folded into fo
AnnZ [28]
For starters, I would get the same height for each paper, such as a counter top. Then, I would make said paper. You would use a timer of course, maybe even something like a speed gun to calculate the speed as said paper falls. You would push each paper off the counter top and calculate the speed for each paper. This is the easiest way to prove your hypothesis.

Which term names the concentration of salts dissolved in a liquid?
Viefleur [7K]
Hey there!
The answer is D, Salinity.
Salinity is the concentration of salt in water. Ocean water often has high salinity and this can contribute to things like upwelling and water density- but these all start from salinity.
Hope this helps!
