<span>Mixing an acid and a base results in neutralization, but the results are potentially dangerous. No matter which acid or base is used, the resulting solution is water and varying types of salt. The process of neutralization often involves the substances heating up when they come together. If the solution heats up too much or too fast, a violent explosion or the creation of harmful or flammable gases is a possibility. This occurs when the chemicals are mixed too quickly, the acid and base are too strong or if there is no available salt to be made in the solution.</span>

A balloon is filled with 2000 mL of air at a pressure of 2 atm. What is the volume of the balloon if the pressure is
artcher [175]

Answer:

800mL

Explanation:

Using Boyle's law which states that the volume of a given mass of gas is inversely proportional to the pressure, provided temperature remains constant

P1V1= P2V2

P1 = 2 atm, V1 = 2000mL ,

P2 = 5atm , V2 = ?

2 × 2000 = 5 × V2

Divide both sides by 5

V2 = 4000 ÷ 5

V2 = 800mL

please hurry! If 3.87g of powdered aluminum oxide is placed in a container containing 5.67g of water, what is the limiting react
VikaD [51]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of aluminium oxide = 3.87g

Mass of water = 5.67g

Unknown:

Limiting reactant = ?

Solution:

The limiting reactant is the reactant in short supply in a chemical reaction. We need to first write the chemical equation and convert the masses given to the number of moles.

Using the number of moles, we can ascertain the limiting reactants;

         Al₂O₃  + 3H₂O  →  2Al(OH)₃  

Number of moles;

            Number of moles = \frac{mass}{molar mass}

molar mass of Al₂O₃  = (2x27) + 3(16) = 102g/mole

    number of moles = \frac{3.87}{102}  = 0.04mole

   

molar mass of  H₂O = 2(1) + 16 = 18g/mole

    number of moles = \frac{5.67}{18}  = 0.32mole

From the reaction equation;

        1 mole of  Al₂O₃  reacted with 3 moles of H₂O

   0.04 mole of Al₂O₃ will react with 3 x 0.04 mole = 0.12 mole of H₂O

But we were given 0.32 mole of H₂O and this is in excess of amount required.

This shows that Al₂O₃ is the limiting reactant
