Answer:

  • In general, polar solutes are most soluble in highly polar solvents.

Explanation:

The general rule is "like dissolves like" which means that <em>polar solvents </em>dissolve polar (or ionic) <em>solutes</em> and <em>non-polar solvents</em> dissolve non-polar solutes.

In order for a solvent dissolve a solute, the strength of the interacttion (force) between the solute and the solvent units (atoms, molecules, or ions) must be stronger than the strength of the forces that keep together he particles of the pure substances (known as intermolecular forces).

Since the nature of the interactions between the units are electrostatic, the more polar is the solvent the better it will be able to attract and surround the solute particles, keeping them separated and in solution. That mechanism explains why polar solutes will be most soluble in highly polar solvents.

When FeC13 is ignited in an atmosphere of pure oxygen, this reaction takes place. 4FeCl3(sJ 30lgJ ~ 2F~0 (sJ 6Cl2(gJ If 3.00 mol
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer : The reagent present in excess and remains unreacted is, O_2

Solution : Given,

Moles of FeCl_3 = 3.00 mole

Moles of O_2 = 2.00 mole

Excess reagent : It is defined as the reactants not completely used up in the reaction.

Limiting reagent : It is defined as the reactants completely used up in the reaction.

Now we have to calculate the limiting and excess reagent.

The balanced chemical reaction is,

2FeCl_3(s)+O_2(g)\rightarrow 2FeO(s)+3Cl_2(g)

From the balanced reaction we conclude that

As, 2 moles of FeCl_3 react with 1 mole of O_2

So, 3.00 moles of FeCl_3 react with \frac{3.00}{2}=1.5 moles of O_2

From this we conclude that, O_2 is an excess reagent because the given moles are greater than the required moles and FeCl_3 is a limiting reagent and it limits the formation of product.

Hence, the reagent present in excess and remains unreacted is, O_2
