Which of the following shows a valid combustion reaction?

marta [7]

Answer: C2H4 + 3O2 → 2CO2 + 2H2O

Explanation:

2Al + 2O2 → 2AlO + O2 Not Balanced Properly: 2Al + O2 = 2AlO

C2H4 + 3O2 → 2CO2 + 2H2O Looks Good

2CH4 + O2 → 2CO + 4H2 Not Correct: CO should be CO2

Ca + O2 → CaOH Not Balanced and No source for the H

Which atom in the ground state has the same electron configuration as a calcium ion, Ca2+, in the ground state?(1) Ar(2) K(3) Mg

Irina-Kira [14]

atoms are made of 3 types of subatomic particles; electrons, protons and neutrons

atomic number is the number of protons. atomic number is characteristic for the element. In ground state atoms, the number of electrons and protons are the same.

the electronic configuration of Ca in the ground state is

Ca - 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s²

when Ca loses its 2 valence electrons, it becomes positively charged and the electronic configuration becomes

Ca - 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶

number of electrons in Ca²⁺ is 18

the atom in the ground state would have the same number of electrons and protons. Therefore number of protons are 18. then the atomic number of the element is 18

the atom having an atomic number of 18 is Ar.

the answer is 1) Ar

The natural abundances of elements in the human body, expressed as percent by mass, are oxygen (o), 65 percent; carbon (c), 18 p

Vlada [557]

It is given that the person weighs 62 kg = 62,000 g

Natural abundances in mass percent are:

O = 65%

C = 18%

H = 10%

N = 3.0%

Ca = 1.6%

P = 1.2%

Corresponding weights of the elements are:

O = 65/100 * 62000 g = 40.30 * 10^3 g

C = 18/100 * 62000 g = 11.16 * 10^3 g

H = 10/100 * 62000 g = 62.00 * 10^2 g

N = 3.0/100 * 62000 g = 18.60 * 10^2 g

Ca = 1.6/100 * 62000 g = 9.92 * 10^2 g

P = 1.2/100 * 62000 g = 7.44 * 10^2 g

If 12.5 grams of strontium hydroxide is reacted with 150 mL of 3.5 M carbonic acid, identify the limiting reactant.

kiruha [24]

Answer:

Sr(OH)₂ will be the limiting reagent.

Explanation:

First of all, you should know the following balanced chemical equation:

2 H₂CO₃ + 2 Sr(OH)₂ → 4 H₂O + Sr₂(CO₃)₂

The balanced equation is based on the Law of Conservation of Mass, which says that matter cannot be created or destroyed. Therefore, the number of each type of atom on each side of a chemical equation must be the same.

The limiting reagent is one that is consumed first in its entirety, determining the amount of product in the reaction. When the limiting reagent is finished, the chemical reaction will stop.

To determine the limiting reagent, it is possible to use the reaction stoichiometry of the reaction (that is, the relationship between the amount of reagents and products in a chemical reaction). By stoichiometry the following amounts in moles react:

strontium hydroxide: 2 moles
carbonic acid: 2 moles

Now, you know the following masses of the elements:

Sr: 87.62 g/mole
O: 16 g/mole
H: 1 g/mole

So the molar mass of strontium hydroxide is:

Sr(OH)₂= 87.62 g/mole + 2*(16 g/mole + 1 g/mole)= 121.62 g/mole

You apply the following rule of three, if 121.62 grams of hydroxide are present in 1 mole, 12.5 grams in how many moles are they?

$moles of strontium hydroxide=\frac{12.5 grams*1 mole}{121.62 grams}$

moles of hydroxide= 0.103 moles

On the other hand, you have 150 ml of 3.5 M carbonic acid. Since molarity is the concentration of a solution expressed in the number of moles dissolved per liter of solution, you can apply the following rule of three: if in 1 L there are 3.5 moles of carbonic acid, in 0.150 L (being 1 L = 1000 mL, 0.150 L = 150 mL) how many moles of acid are there?

$molesofcarbonicacid=\frac{0.150 L*3.5 moles}{1 L}$

moles of carbonic acid= 0.525 moles

Finally, to calculate the limiting reagent, you can use a simple rule of three as follows: if by stoichiometry 2 mole of strontium hydroxide reacts with , how much moles of carbonic acid will be needed if 0.103 moles of strontium hydroxide react?

$molesofcarbonicacid=\frac{0.103 moles of strontium hydroxide*2 moles of carbonic acid}{2 moles of strontium hydroxide}$

moles of carbonic acid= 0.103 moles

But 0.525 moles are available. Since more moles are available than you need to react with 0.103 moles of strontium hydroxide, <u><em>Sr(OH)₂ will be the limiting reagent.</em></u>
