Answer:

Hydrosulfuric acid will act as limiting reactant.

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of iron(III) chloride = 3243.0 g

Mass of hydrosulfuric acid = 511.8 g

Limiting reactant = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2FeCl₃ + 3H₂S       →       Fe₂S₃ + 6HCl

Number of moles of iron(III) chloride:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 3243.0 g/ 162.2 g/mol

Number of moles = 20 mol

Number of moles of hydrosulfuric acid:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 511.8 g/ 34.1 g/mol

Number of moles = 15 mol

Now we will compare the moles of both reactant with products

                      FeCl₃          :          Fe₂S₃

                       2                :            1

                      20               :          1/2 ×20 = 10

                      FeCl₃          :            HCl

                       2                :              6

                      20               :          6/2 ×20 = 60

                      H₂S             :          Fe₂S₃

                       3                :            1

                      15               :          1/3 ×15 = 5

                      H₂S            :            HCl

                       3                :              6

                      15                :          6/3 ×15 = 30

Hydrosulfuric acid producing less number of moles of product thus, it will act as limiting reactant.

Which vein carries oxygenated blood back into the heart?
Finger [1]

Answer:

The veins that carry oxygenated bloof back into the heart are the pulmonary arteries.

Explanation:

Oxygen-rich blood flows from the lungs back into the left atrium (LA), or the left upper chamber of the heart, through four pulmonary veins. Oxygen-rich blood then flows through the mitral valve (MV) into the left ventricle (LV), or the left lower chamber.

How is the law of conservation of matter represented in a chemical reaction?
blondinia [14]

Answer:

By balancing the chemical equation  

Explanation:

The Law of Conservation of Matter states that matter cannot be destroyed nor created.

That is, you must have the same amount of matter before and after a reaction.

Atoms are made of matter, so you must have the same number of each type of atom in the reactants as in the products. You must balance the equation.

Consider the reaction

2H₂ + O₂ ⟶ 2H₂O

You must have 2s in front of H₂ and H₂O to balance the atoms.

They give you four atoms of H and two atoms of O on each side of the arrow.

What increases acidity more, nitrile group or chloride group?
lozanna [386]

Answer:

The nitrile group

Explanation:

The nitrile group contains the C≡N bond. It should be recalled that triple bond is highly electronegative and withdraws electrons from the C-H bond more effectively than the halogen atom.

The higher effectiveness of the C≡N bond at electron withdrawal greatly reduces the electron density of the C-H bond thereby making the hydrogen atom of the bond highly labile
