The balanced equation for the reaction is as follows
2H₂ + O₂ --> 2H₂O
stoichiometry of H₂ to O₂ is 2:1
number of H₂ moles - 30.0 g / 2 g/mol = 15 mol
number of O₂ moles - 80.0 g / 32 g/mol = 2.5 mol
limiting reactant is the reagent in which only a fraction is used up in the reaction
if H₂ is the limiting reactant
if 2 mol of H₂ requires 1 mol of O₂
then 15 mol of H₂ requires 1/2 x 15.0 = 7.5 mol of O₂
but only 2.5 mol of O₂ is required
this means that O₂ is the limiting reagentt and H₂ is in excess
Answer:
are a gas at very low volumes, when gas particles are very close together
a gas at very low temperatures, when gas particles have very little kinetic energy
a gas with highly polar molecules that have very strong intermolecular forces
Explanation:
<u>Answer:</u> The amount of heat released is 56 MJ.
<u>Explanation:</u>
To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:
Given mass of 
= 12 kg = 12000 g (Conversion factor: 1 kg = 1000 g)
Molar mass of = 30 g/mol
Putting values in above equation, we get:
The chemical reaction for hydrogenation of ethene follows the equation:
By Stoichiometry of the reaction:
When 1 mole of ethane releases 140 kJ of heat.
So, 400 moles of ethane will release = 
of heat.
Converting this into Mega joules, using the conversion factor:
1 MJ = 1000 kJ
So, 
Hence, the amount of heat released is 56 MJ.
