Zinc metal is added to a flask containing aqueous hydrochloric acid. The flask contains 0.400 mole of HCl. How much hydrogen gas

dusya [7]

Answer:

0.4 g of hydrogen gas would be produced.

1. 0.48 mole of HCl is needed to react completely with 15.5 g of zinc.

2. HCl is the limiting reactant.

3. 2.61 g of zinc is in excess

Explanation:

From the balanced equation of reaction:

$Zn(s)+ 2HCl(aq) --> H_2(g) + ZnCl_2(aq)$

1 mole of Zn requires 2 moles of HCl to produce 1 mole of hydrogen gas.

15.5 g of zinc = 15.5/65.3 = 0.24 moles of zinc.

0.24 moles Zn is supposed to require 0.24 x 2 moles HCl which is equivalent to 0.48 moles HCl.

But only 0.400 mole of HCl is present. Hence, HCl is the limiting reagent. For complete reaction with 15.5 g of Zinc, 0.48 mole HCl would be needed.

0.400 mole of HCl will require 0.2 mole of Zn for complete reaction. This thus means that 0.24 - 02 = 0.04 mole of Zn is in excess.

0.04 mole Zn = 0.04 x 65.3 = 2.61 g excess Zn.

Now, since HCl is the limiting reagent;

2 moles of HCl is required to produce 1 mole of H2 according to the equation.

0.400 mole HCl will therefore yield 0.400 x 1/2 = 0.2 mole H2

0.2 mole H2 = 2 x 0.2 = 0.4 g H2

Hence, 0.4 g of hydrogen gas would be produced.

The mass number of an atom is 15, and its atomic number is 7. The atom probably has... 8 neutrons in the nucleus. about as much

Artist 52 [7]

Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Atomic number is the sum of only total number of protons present in an element. Whereas mass number is the sum of total number of both protons and neutrons present in an element.

For example, given atom has mass number as 15 and its atomic number is 7.

Therefore, number of neutrons present in it will be calculated as follows.

Mass number = no. of protons + no. of neutrons

15 = 7 + no. of neutrons

no. of neutrons = 15 - 7

= 8

Thus, we can conclude that the given atom contains 8 neutrons in the nucleus.

Propane burns in oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and steam. The unbalanced equation for this reaction is: C3H8 + O2 → CO2 + H2O

NemiM [27]

Here is your answer

C3H8 + O2-----> CO2 + H2O

Balancing C atoms

C3H8 + O2------> 3CO2 + H2O

Balancing H atoms

C3H8 + O2------> 3CO2 + 4H2O

Balancing O atoms

C3H8 + $\bold{5}$ O2-------> $\bold{3}$ CO2 + $\bold{4}$ H2O

Hence the equation is balanced.
