Answer: 0.4 moles
Explanation:
Given that:
Volume of gas V = 11L
(since 1 liter = 1dm3
11L = 11dm3)
Temperature T = 25°C
Convert Celsius to Kelvin
(25°C + 273 = 298K)
Pressure P = 0.868 atm
Number of moles N = ?
Note that Molar gas constant R is a constant with a value of 0.00821 atm dm3 K-1 mol-1
Then, apply ideal gas equation
pV = nRT
0.868atm x 11dm3 = n x (0.00821 atm dm3 K-1 mol-1 x 298K)
9.548 atm dm3 = n x 24.47atm dm3mol-1
n = (9.548 atm dm3 / 24.47atm dm3 mol-1)
n = 0.4 moles
Thus, there are 0.4 moles of the gas.
The balanced equation for the above reaction is
2Al + 3CuCl₂ --> 2AlCl₃ + 3Cu
stoichiometry of Al to CuCl₂ is 2:3
limiting reactant is when the reactant is fully consumed in the reaction therefore amount of product formed depends on amount of limiting reactant present.
number of Al moles - 0.5 g / 27 g/mol = 0.019 mol
number of CuCl₂ moles - 3.5 g / 134.5 g/mol = 0.026 mol
if Al is the limiting reactant
if 2 mol of Al reacts with 3 mol of CuCl₂
then 0.019 mol of Al reacts with - 3/2 x 0.019 = 0.029 mol of CuCl₂
but only 0.026 mol of CuCl₂ is present
therefore CuCl₂ is the limiting reactant
and 0.026 mol of CuCl₂ reacts with - 0.026/3 x 2 = 0.017 mol of Al is required
but 0.019 mol of Al is present
therefore CuCl₂ is the limiting reactant and Al is in excess
Answer:
The most important function of the legislative branch is its lawmaking authority. In order for a law to be created, a bill must be introduced by either a member of the House or Senate. Once introduced, the bill is brought to a committee for review. ... Each committee is organized around a specific policy function.
