If you had 6 moles of CaCl2 and 5 moles of Na3PO4, which of these would be the limiting and excess reactant

Chemistry

Answer:

Na3PO4 is excess reactant, CaCl2 is limiting reactant.

Explanation:

                                      3CaCl2 + 2Na3PO4 ---> Ca3(PO4)2 + 6NaCl

from reaction :              3 mol        2 mol

given:                            6 mol         5 mol (X)

X = (6*2)/3 = 4 mol Na3PO4

For 6 mol CaCl2 we need 4 mol Na3PO4, but  we have 5 mol Na3PO4,

Na3PO4 is excess reactant, so CaCl2 is limiting reactant.

Explanation: Here, we will be considering 1 cup is equal to 1 mol.

2 water + sugar + lemon juice → 4 lemonade

Moles of water present in 946.36 g of water=\frac{946.36 g}{236.59 g/mol}=4 mol

Moles of sugar present in 196.86 g of water=\frac{196.86 g}{225 g/mol}=0.8749 mol

Moles of lemon juice present in 193.37 g of water=\frac{193.37 g}{257.83 g/mol}=0.7499 mol

Moles of lemonade in 2050.25 g of water=\frac{2050.25 g}{719.42 g/mol}=2.8498 mol

As we can see that number of moles of lemon juice are limited.

So, we will consider the reaction will complete in accordance with moles of lemon juice.

1 mole lemon juice reacts with 2 mol of water,then 0.7499 mol of lemon juice will react with:

\frac{2}{1}\times 0.7499 mol = 1.4998 mol of water

Mass of water used =  1.4998 mol × 236.59 g/mol=354.8376 g

Water remained unused = 946.36 g - 354.8376 g =591.5223 g

1 mole lemon juice reacts with  mol of sugar,then 0.7499 mol of lemon juice will react with:

\frac{1}{1}\times 0.7499 mol = 0.7499 mol of water

Mass of sugar used =  0.7499 mol × 225 g/mol = 168.7275 g

Sugar remained unused = 196.86 g - 28.1325 g

1 mole of lemon juice gives 4 moles of lemonade.

Then 0.7499 mol of lemon juice will give:

\frac{4}{1}\times 0.7499 mol=2.996 mol of lemonade

Mass of lemonade obtained  = 2.996 mol × 719.42 g/mol = 2157.9722 g

Theoretical yield of lemonade = 2157.9722 g

Experimental yield of lemonade = 2050.25 g

Percentage yield of lemonade:

\frac{\text{Experimental yield}}{\text{theoretical yield}}\times 100

\frac{2050.25 g}{2157.9722 g}\times 100=95.00\%

The percentage yield of  lemonade is 95% and ingredient which remained unused were water and sugar.

Define what natural gas is, explain how it forms, and<br> what it is used for today.
natta225 [31]

Answer:

is a naturally occurring hydrocarbon gas mixture consisting primarily of methane, but commonly including varying amounts of other higher alkanes, and sometimes a small percentage of carbon dioxide, nitrogen, hydrogen sulfide, or helium.

It is formed when layers of decomposing plant and animal matter are exposed to intense heat and pressure under the surface of the Earth over millions of years. The energy that the plants originally obtained from the sun is stored in the form of chemical bonds in the gas

for heating, cooking, and electricity generation. It is also used as a fuel for vehicles and as a chemical feedstock in the manufacture of plastics and other commercially important organic chemicals.
