Consider the reaction 2Al + 6HBr → 2AlBr3 + 3H2. If 8 moles of Al react with 8 moles of HBr, what is the limiting reactant?

Answer:- HBr is limiting reactant.

Solution:- The given balanced equation is:

2Al+6HBr\rightarrow 2AlBr_3+3H_2

From this equation, There is 2:6 mol or 1:3 mol ratio between Al and HBr. Since we have 8 moles of each, HBr is the limiting reactant as we need 3 moles of HBr for each mol of Al.

The calculations could be shown as:

8molAl(\frac{6molHBr}{2molAl})

= 24 mol HBr

From calculations, 24 moles of HBr are required to react completely with 8 moles of Al but only 8 moles of it are available. It clearly indicates, HBr is limiting reactant.

Convert mass to moles for both reactants. (Round to 2 significant figures.)
shepuryov [24]
Mass = mr x moles
Mr of CuCl2 = ( 63.5) + ( 35.5 x 2) = 134.5
2.5 = 134.5 x moles
2.5 / 134.5 = moles
Moles = 0.019 (2DP)

0.25g of Al
Mr of Al = 27
0.25 = 27 x moles
0.25/ 27 = 0.0093 moles (2sf)

Hope this helps :)

Question #1: Identify the type of Mutation below
borishaifa [10]

Answer:

Deletion

Explanation:

A mutation refers to a change in the DNA sequence. This means that the original sequence of bases in the DNA has been altered permanently.

There are three types of DNA mutations;  base substitutions, deletions and insertions.

In the particular case of this question, the original is TTCGATA while the copy is TTGATA. If you look closely at the two, you will notice that the C has been omitted. This is an example of  deletion.

What volume will 20.0g of Argon occupy at STP?
Yuki888 [10]
Molar mass Argon = 39.948 g/mol

1 mol ------ 39.948 g
  mol ----- 20.0 g 

mol = 20.0 * 1 / 39.948

= 0.5006 moles

1 mol --------------------- 22.4 L ( at STP )
0.5006 moles ------------- L 

L = 0.5006 * 22.4

= 11.21 L

hope this helps!
