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.

How/why is maintaining healthy soil a social justice issue for our area and community
podryga [215]

Answer:

Social justice aims to give individuals and groups fair treatment and an impartial share of social, environmental and economic benefits. The concept promotes the fair distribution of advantages and disadvantages within a society, regardless of background and status.

Environmental justice deals explicitly with the distribution of environmental benefits and the burdens people experience, at home, at work, or where they learn, play and spend leisure time. Environmental benefits include attractive and extensive greenspace, clean air and water, and investment in pollution abatement and landscape improvements. Environmental burdens include risks and hazards from industrial, transport-generated and municipal pollution.

A cube of an unknown metal measures 0.200 cm on one side. The mass of the cube is 52 mg. Which of the following is most likely t
Margarita [4]

Answer:

Option E. Zirconium

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Length of side (L) of cube = 0.2 cm

Mass (m) of cube = 52 mg

Name of the unknown metal =?

Next, we shall determine the volume of the cube. This can be obtained as follow:

Length of side (L) of cube = 0.2 cm

Volume (V) of the cube =?

V = L³

V = 0.2³

V = 0.008 cm³

Next, we shall convert 52 mg to g. This can be obtained as follow:

1000 mg = 1 g

Therefore,

52 mg = 52 mg × 1 g / 1000 mg

52 mg = 0.052 g

Thus, 52 mg is equivalent to 0.052 g.

Next, we shall determine the density of the unknown metal. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass = 0.052 g.

Volume = 0.008 cm³

Density =?

Density = mass / volume

Density = 0.052 / 0.008

Density of the unknown metal = 6.5 g/cm³

Comparing the density of the unknown metal i.e 6.5 g/cm³ with those given in table in the above, we can conclude that the unknown metal is zirconium
