Methanol (CH3OH) is the simplest of the alcohols. It is synthesized by the reaction of hydrogen and carbon monoxide

Chemistry

Answer:

By reacting carbon monoxide and hydrogen the formation of methanol takes place, the reaction is,

CO(g)+2H₂(g)⇔CH₃OH (g)

Based on the given reaction, one mole of methanol is obtained by reacting one mole of carbon monoxide (CO) with the two moles of hydrogen (H₂). It is mentioned in the question that for the reaction 500 mol of carbon monoxide and 750 moles of hydrogen are present.

Therefore for 500 moles of carbon monoxide, there is a requirement of 2 × 500 moles of hydrogen, which is equivalent to 1000 moles of hydrogen (H₂). However, only 750 moles of hydrogen is present. Therefore, the limiting reactant in the given case is H₂. The present moles of H₂ will react with 0.5 × 750 moles of CO = 375 mole of CO

The additional or excess concentration of CO, which is the excess reactant will be, 500-375 = 125 moles.

Why can you see a corona during a total solar eclipse?
Mumz [18]

Answer:

The corona shines only about half as brightly as the Moon and is normally not visible to the unaided eye, because its light is overwhelmed by the brilliance of the solar surface. During a total solar eclipse, however, the Moon blocks out the light from the photosphere, permitting eye observations of the corona.

What is the limiting reactant if 12 moles of p4 react with 15 moles of o2?.
brilliants [131]

Answer:

see explanation

Explanation:

To determine limiting reactant divide mole quantities of reactants by the respective coefficient in the balanced equation. The smaller value is the limiting reactant.

    P₄      +     5O₂       => 2P₂O₅

12/1 = 12      15/5 = 3

O₂ is the limiting reactant. P₄ will be in excess when rxn stops.

In aqueous solution, hypobromite ion, BrO-, reacts to produce bromate ion, BrO3 -, and bromide ion, Br-, according to the follow
maw [93]

Answer:

22.73s

Explanation:

The reaction is a second order reaction, we know this by observing the unit of the slope.

rate constant = k = 0.056 M-1s-1

the initial concentration of BrO- [A]o = 0.80 M

time = ?

Final concentration [A]t= one-half of 0.80 M = 0.40M

1 / [A]t = kt + 1 / [A]o

1 / 0.40 = 0.056 * t + 1 / 0.80

t = (2.5 - 1.25) / 0.056

t = 22.73s
