Answer:

HCl

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of Zn = 50 g

Mass of HCl = 50 g

Limiting reactant = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

Zn + 2HCl → ZnCl₂ + H₂

Number of moles of Zn:

Number of moles = mass / molar mass

Number of moles = 50 g/ 65.38 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.76 mol

Number of moles of HCl:

Number of moles = mass / molar mass

Number of moles = 50 g/ 36.5 g/mol

Number of moles = 1.4 mol

Now we will compare the moles of Reactant with product.

Zn : ZnCl₂

1 : 1

0.76 : 0.76

Zn : H₂

1 : 1

0.76 : 0.76

HCl : ZnCl₂

2 : 1

1.4 : 1/2×1.4 = 0.7

HCl : H₂

2 : 1

1.4 : 1/2×1.4 = 0.7

Less number of moles of product are formed by HCl it will act limiting reactant.

An order is given to administer methylprednisolone, an anti-inflammatory drug, by IV at a rate of 39 mg every 30 min. The IV bag

Korvikt [17]

Answer:

The Flow rate = 0.0208 mL/min

Explanation:

Data provided:

Rate of dose = 39 mg every 30 min = (39/30) mg/min = 1.3 mg/min

also,

125mg of methylprednisolone is present in every 2 mL

thus,

concentration = (125/2) mg/mL = 62.5 mg/mL

Now,

The flow rate is given as:

Flow rate = Rate / Concentration

on substituting the respective values, we get

Flow rate = (1.3 mg/min) / (62.5mg/mL)

The Flow rate = 0.0208 mL/min

A meteorologist filled a weather balloon with 3.00L of the inert noble gas helium. The balloon's pressure was 765 torr. The ball

yanalaym [24]

Answer:

4.33 L

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Initial volume of the balloon (V₁): 3.00 L

Initial pressure of the balloon (P₁): 765 torr

Final volume of the balloon (V₂): ?

Final pressure of the balloon (P₂): 530 torr

Step 2: Calculate the final volume of the balloon

If we consider Helium to behave as an ideal gas, we can calculate the final volume of the balloon using Boyle's law.

$P_1 \times V_1 = P_2 \times V_2\\V_2 = \frac{P_1 \times V_1}{P_2} = \frac{765torr \times 3.00L}{530torr} = 4.33 L$

Which explains the information needed to calculate speed and velocity?

USPshnik [31]

Answer:

Both require time, but velocity requires displacement and speed requires distance

Explanation:

For calculating speed we require time and distance because speed is defined as the distance per unit time and as speed is a scalar quantity it does not have any direction

But for calculating the velocity we require time as well as displacement because velocity is defined as the displacement per unit time and as velocity is a vector quantity it has direction

Displacement is the shortest distance between the initial position and the final position and it has a specified direction as well

What is the quantity of heat (in kJ) associated with cooling 185.5 g of water from 25.60°C to ice at -10.70°C?Heat Capacity of S

Cerrena [4.2K]

Taking into account the definition of calorimetry, sensible heat and latent heat, the amount of heat required is 37.88 kJ.

<h3>Calorimetry</h3>

Calorimetry is the measurement and calculation of the amounts of heat exchanged by a body or a system.

<h3>Sensible heat</h3>

Sensible heat is defined as the amount of heat that a body absorbs or releases without any changes in its physical state (phase change).

<h3>Latent heat</h3>

Latent heat is defined as the energy required by a quantity of substance to change state.

When this change consists of changing from a solid to a liquid phase, it is called heat of fusion and when the change occurs from a liquid to a gaseous state, it is called heat of vaporization.

<u><em>25.60 °C to 0 °C</em></u>

First of all, you should know that the freezing point of water is 0°C. That is, at 0°C, water freezes and turns into ice.

So, you must lower the temperature from 25.60°C (in liquid state) to 0°C, in order to supply heat without changing state (sensible heat).

The amount of heat a body receives or transmits is determined by:

Q = c× m× ΔT

where Q is the heat exchanged by a body of mass m, made up of a specific heat substance c and where ΔT is the temperature variation.

In this case, you know:

c= Heat Capacity of Liquid= 4.184 $\frac{J}{gC}$
m= 185.5 g
ΔT= Tfinal - Tinitial= 0 °C - 25.60 °C= - 25.6 °C

Replacing:

Q1= 4.184 $\frac{J}{gC}$ × 185.5 g× (- 25.6 °C)

Solving:

<u><em>Change of state</em></u>

The heat Q that is necessary to provide for a mass m of a certain substance to change phase is equal to

Q = m×L

where L is called the latent heat of the substance and depends on the type of phase change.

In this case, you know:

n= 185.5 grams× $\frac{1mol}{18 grams}$ = 10.30 moles, where 18 $\frac{g}{mol}$ is the molar mass of water, that is, the amount of mass that a substance contains in one mole.
