Answer:
Oxygen is the limiting reactant
Explanation:
2H2 + O2 ⇒ 2H2O
2mol 1mol 2mol
2moles of hydrogen will require 1mol of oxygen to produce 2mol of water
in the question, 6.45g of O2 reacts with 1.13g of H2.
molar mass of O2 = 16*2 =32g/mol
molar mass of H2 = 1*2=2g/mol
number of moles of O2 = mass/molar mass
= 6.45/32
=0.20156moles
number of moles of H2 = 1.13/2
=0.565moles
but 0.20156moles of O2 will require 0.40312moles of hydrogen
2H2 + O2 ⇒ 2H2O
2mol 1mol 2mol
0.40312mole 0.20156mol
0.40312moles is less than 0.565moles of H2 present, which means hydrogen is in excess hence implying that oxygen is the limiting reactant
Answer:
A) high spin complex
B) low spin complex
Explanation:
A) VCI3(H20)3 is a high spin complex and this is because the complex has a weak field ligands all . this weak field ligands makes it impossible for pairing to take place
B) Fe(NH3)23 is a low spin complex and this is because the complex is made up of strong field ligands, this strong field ligands makes it possible for paring to take place
note : Ligands in which its donor atoms are ; Nitrogen,phosphorous or carbon are considered strong ligands
Answer:
Factors affecting a system in equilibrium are;
- concentration
- temperature
- pressure
Explanation:
A chemical equilibrium occurs when there is a proportion in mixtures of reactants and products.
For concentration, where some of the reactants are removed from an equilibrium reaction, the contents in the product side will be unbalanced thus the system will not be equilibrium and according to the Le Chatelier's principle, a system will shift in a manner to return balance in the reaction.
In temperature, in endothermic reactions, energy is considered as a reactant where as in exothermic reactions, energy is considered as a product.In exothermic reactions increase in temperature increases the reaction causing unbalanced reaction. A decrease in temperature causes a backward reaction which is endothermic
Increase in pressure causes the equilibrium to shift to the side of reaction with fewer moles of the reacting gas, where as a decrease in pressure forces the equilibrium to shift to the side of reaction with more moles of gas.
