Answer:

H₂SO₄  will be the limiting reagent.

Explanation:

The balanced reaction is:

2 Al(OH)₃ + 3 H₂SO₄ → Al₂(SO₄)₃ + 6 H₂O

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).

You can use a simple rule of three as follows: if by stoichiometry 2 moles of Al(OH)₃ reacts with 3 moles of H₂SO₄, how much moles of H₂SO₄ will be needed if 0.4 moles of Al(OH)₃ react?

moles of H_{2} SO_{4} =\frac{0.4 moles of Al(OH)_{3}*3 moles of H_{2} SO_{4} }{2 moles of Al(OH)_{3}}

moles of H₂SO₄= 0.6 moles

But 0.6 moles of H₂SO₄ are not available, 0.40 moles are available. Since you have less moles than you need to react with 0.4 moles of Al(OH)₃, H₂SO₄  will be the limiting reagent.

Consider the reaction: 2NO(g) + 2H2(g) → N2(g) + 2H2O(g) A suggested mechanism for this reaction follows: (1) NO(g) + NO(g) → N2
Dominik [7]

Hello. This question is incomplete. The full question is:

"Consider the following reaction.  2NO(g) + 2H2(g) → N2(g) + 2H2O(g)

A proposed reaction mechanism is:  NO(g) + NO(g) N2O2(g) fast  N2O2(g) + H2(g) → N2O(g) + H2O(g) slow  N2O(g) + H2(g) → N2(g) + H2O(g) fast

What is the rate expression?  A. rate = k[H2] [NO]2  B. rate = k[N2O2] [H2]  C. rate = k[NO]2 [H2]2  D. rate = k[NO]2 [N2O2]2 [H2]"

Answer:

A. rate = k[H2] [NO]2

Explanation:

A reaction mechanism is a term used to describe a set of phases that make up a chemical reaction. In these phases a detailed sequence of each step is shown, composed of several complementary reactions, which occur during a chemical reaction.

These mechanisms are directly related to chemical kinetics and allow changes in reaction rates to be observed in advance.

Reaction rate, on the other hand, refers to the speed at which chemical reactions occur.

Based on this, we can observe through the reaction mechanism shown in the question above, that the action "k [H2] [NO] 2" would have no changes in the reaction rate.

The equation that conforms with the particle model is 4C + 6O2 ----> 4CO2 + 2O2.

<h3>What is a chemical reaction?</h3>

The term chemical reaction has to do with the combination of substances to give products. We know that reactants and products must follow the law of conservation of mass.

Hence, the equation that conforms with the particle model is 4C + 6O2 ----> 4CO2 + 2O2.

What is an isotope? Explain why isotopes having different number of neutrons are still considered to be the same element on the
Mazyrski [523]

Isotopes of any given factor all incorporate the equal variety of protons, so they have the identical atomic wide variety (for example, the atomic wide variety of helium is usually 2). Isotopes of a given factor include exceptional numbers of neutrons, therefore, special isotopes have special mass numbers.
