Answer:
10
Explanation:
Deca or deka is a decimal unit prefix in the metric system denoting a factor of ten. For example, DECAGON is a 10-sided polygon (10-gon).
The reason why is because particles are moving faster and possess greater kinetic energy due to the increase in temperature, this causes greater frequency or number of collisions to take place and also allows for a higher likelihood that upon reactant molecules colliding they will undergo the reaction process as they will have achieved the required energy needed for the reaction to start. Thus overall having a greater change in quantity conversion of reactants to products within a shorter period of time, thus increasing the reaction rate.
Answer:
34.8 g
Explanation:
Answer:
We have the masses of two reactants, so this is a limiting reactant problem.
We will need a balanced equation with masses, moles, and molar masses of the compounds involved.
1. Gather all the information in one place with molar masses above the formulas and masses below them.
Mᵣ: 123.90 70.91 208.24
P₄ + 20Cl₂ ⟶ 4PCl₅
Mass/g: 46.0 32.0
2. Calculate the moles of each reactant

3. Calculate the moles of PCl₅ we can obtain from each reactant
From P₄:
The molar ratio is 4 mol PCl₅:4 mol P₄

From Cl₂:
The molar ratio is 4 mol PCl₅:20 mol Cl₂

4. Identify the limiting and excess reactants
The limiting reactant is chlorine, because it gives the smaller amount of PCl₅.
The excess reactant is phosphorus.
5. Mass of excess reactant
(a) Moles of P₄ reacted
The molar ratio is 1 mol P₄:20 mol Cl₂

(b) Mass of P₄ reacted

(c) Mass of P₄ remaining
Mass remaining = original mass – mass reacted = (46.0 - 11.18) g = 34.8 g P₄
