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.

What mass of oxygen is contained in a 5.8 g sample of NaHCO3?
White raven [17]
Molar mass of NaHCO3 is 83.9. moles of Na...O3= 5.8/83.9
=0.0691
for every mole of Na..O3 there are 3 O
n(O) = n(NaHCO3) x3
        = 0.207
mass of O is the moles x molar mass (16)
therefore the mass of O is 3.3 grams

What are alluvial diamond fields?
hammer [34]

Answer:

Alluvial diamond mining occurs in riverbeds and beaches, where thousands of years of erosion and natural forces such as wind, rain, and water currents wash diamonds from their primary deposits in kimberlite pipes to beaches and riverbeds. Some alluvial deposits are from long-ago rivers.

An unknown gas effuses 2. 165 times faster than xe. what is the molar mass of the gas? show the set up and answer with unit
enot [183]

27.94 g/mole is the molar mass of the unknown gas.

Use Graham's Law, which indicates that the square root of a gas's molar mass determines its rate of effusion.

The following equation compares two distinct gases, (a) and (b), and expresses this:

sqrt(M(b)/M) = R(a)/R(b) (a)

R is the effusion rate.

square root = sqrt

the molar mass, M

In response to your query, if gas (a) is the unknown gas and Xe(M = 131 g/mol) is the second gas, we have:

sqrt(M(Xe)/M(a) = 2.165, where R(a)/R(Xe)

Square both sides, and you get:

(2.165)² = 131 g/mol/ M (a)

M(a)(2.165)² = 131

M(a) is equal to 131/(2.165)² = 27.94 g/mol.

Having a molar mass of 27.94 g/mol, the unknown gas.

At high concentrations, inorganic fluoride inhibits enolase. In an anaerobic system that is metabolizing glucose as a substrate,
Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

<h2>A. 2-phosphoglycerate </h2>

Explanation:

Glycolysis is the process of breakdown of  glucose into two 3-carbon molecules called pyruvate. The energy released during glycolysis is used to make ATP.

Enolase is the enzyme  which plays very important role in glycolysis. In the 9th step of glycolysis, Enolase converts  2-phosphoglycerate into phosphoenolpyruvate.

This reaction of conversion of  2-phosphoglycerate to phosphoenolpyruvate is a reversible dehydration reaction.

Fluoride inhibits enolase, so when enolase is become non-functional then there is no convertion of 2-phosphoglycerate  to phosphoenolpyruvate, so the concentraion of 2-phosphoglycerate is increases by the addition of fluoride.
