48g of magnesium reacts with four moles of sulfuric acid. determine which reactant is the limiting reactant

Chemistry
1 answer:
Anna007 [38]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Magnesium is limiting reactant.

Explanation:

Based on the reaction:

Mg + H₂SO₄ → MgSO₄ + H₂

<em>1 mole of Mg reacts per mole of sulfuric acid</em>

<em />

To find limiting reactant we need to convert mass of magnesium to moles. If moles of Mg > moles sulfuric acid, sulfuric acid is limiting reactant and vice versa.

<em>Moles Mg -Molar mass: 24g/mol-:</em>

48g Mg * (1mol / 24g) = 2moles

As there are just 2 moles of Magnesium, just 2 moles of H₂SO₄ will react and 3 moles will remain. That means:

<h3>Magnesium is limiting reactant.</h3>

When a solute is added to a solution why does it remain homogeneous?
Olenka [21]
<h3>Answer:</h3>

                 When a solute is added to a solution, it remains homogeneous because the solute is soluble in given solvent.

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

                         Homogeneous mixtures, also called true solutions are those mixtures in which the components proportions are same throughout in any given sample. For example, the mixture of table salt (NaCl) and water. When the solution is unsaturated and further NaCl is added to it, it will dissolve the NaCl because the saturation point is still not reached. Remember, as "<em>Like Dissolves Like</em>" NaCl being polar in nature will interact with water molecules and will dissociate into Na⁺ and Cl⁻ ions surrounded by δ- O and δ+ H atoms of water molecules.

<h3>Conclusion:</h3>

                  In order to form a Homogeneous mixture the solution must be unsaturated, solvent must have affinity for incoming solute particles and the size of solute should be equal to 1 Â (Angstrom).
