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.

A 100.0 mL solution containing 0.923 gof maleic acid (MW=116.072 g/mol) is titrated with 0.265 M KOH. Calculate the pH of the so
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

pH = 9,57

[M²⁻] = 7,948x10⁻²M

[HM⁻] = 4x10⁻⁵M

[H₂M] = 0M

Explanation:

The moles of maleic acid presents in the solution are:

0,923g×\frac{1mol}{116,072g}=7,952x10⁻³moles of H₂M

60,0mL of 0,265M KOH are:

0,0600L×\frac{0,265mol}{1L}=0,0159 moles of KOH

The reactions of maleic acid (H₂M) and then with HM⁻ are:

H₂M + KOH → HM⁻ + H₂O + K⁺ (1)

HM⁻ + KOH → M²⁻ + H₂O + K⁺ (2)

For a complete transformation of H₂M in HM⁻ there are necessaries 7,952x10⁻³moles of KOH. As the moles of KOH are 0,0159 moles, the restant moles are:

0,0159 - 7,952x10⁻³ = <em>7,948x10⁻³ moles of KOH</em>

By (2), the moles produced of M²⁻ are the same as moles of KOH, <em>7,948x10⁻³  moles, </em>and moles of HM⁻ are:

7,952x10⁻³ -<em> </em>7,948x10⁻³ <em> = 4x10⁻⁶ moles of HM⁻</em>

Using Henderson-Hasselbalch formula:

pH = pka + log₁₀ [M²⁻] /[HM⁻]

pH = 6,27 + log₁₀ <em>7,948x10⁻³ / 4x10⁻⁶</em>

pH = 9,57

The moles of M²⁻ are 7,948x10⁻³  and volume of the solution is 0,1000L,

[M²⁻] = 7,948x10⁻²M

Moles of HM⁻ are 4x10⁻⁶:

[HM⁻] = 4x10⁻⁵M

And there is not H₂M:

[H₂M] = 0M

I hope it helps!

What is the molecular formula of a substance that decomposes into 1.33 g of h and 21.3 g of o, and was found to have a molar mas
Tema [17]
<span>H2O2 First, let's determine how many moles of hydrogen and oxygen atoms we have. Start by looking up the atomic weights of those elements: Atomic weight hydrogen = 1.00794 Atomic weight oxygen = 15.999 Moles hydrogen = 1.33 g / 1.00794 g/mol = 1.319522987 mol Moles oxygen = 21.3 g / 15.999 g/mol = 1.331333208 mol We now have a ratio of 1.319522987 : 1.331333208 and we want a ratio of small integers that is close. Start by dividing all the numbers in the ratio by the smallest value, giving: 1 : 1.008950371 This ratio is acceptably close to 1:1 so I assume the formula is of the form HnOn where n is a small integer. Let's initially assume that n is 1, so the mass would be 1.00794 + 15.999 = 17.00694 Obviously 17 is far smaller than 34.1. So let's divide 34.1 by 17.00694 and see what n should be: 34.1 / 17.00694 = 2.005063815 So the formula we want is H2O2, which is hydrogen peroxide.</span>
