Calculate the molarity of a MgSosolution

A 1.25 g sample of aluminum is reacted with 3.28 g of copper (II) sulfate. What is the limiting reactant? 2Al(s) + 3CuSO4(aq) →

vova2212 [387]

Answer:

Copper (II) sulfate

Explanation:

Given reaction is

2Al(s) + 3CuSO4(aq) → Al2(SO4)3(aq) + 3Cu(s)

Amount of aluminum = 1·25 g

Amount of copper (II) sulfate = 3·28 g

Atomic weight of Al = 26 g

Molecular weight of CuSO4 ≈ 159·5

Number of moles of Al = 1·25 ÷ 26 = 0·048

Number of moles of CuSO4 = 3·28 ÷ 159·5 = 0·021

From the above balanced chemical equation for every 2 moles of aluminum, 3 moles of copper (ll) sulfate will be required

So for 1 mole of Al, 1·5 moles of copper (ll) sulfate will be required

For 0·048 moles of Al, 1.5 × 0·048 moles of copper (ll) sulfate will be required

∴ Number of moles of copper (ll) sulfate required = 0·072

But we have only 0·021 moles of copper (ll) sulfate

As copper (ll) sulfate is not there in required amount, the limiting reactant will be copper (ll) sulfate

∴ The limiting reactant is copper (ll) sulfate

From each drop-down menu, a solid has (a definite volume and a definite shape), a Liquid has (a definite volume) and gas has ( non of the above)

<h3>The features of different states of Matter:</h3>

Matter is defined as anything that has weight and occupies space.

There are three states of matter that is in existence which include:

Solid: The particles of solid are closely packed together and vibrate around fixed axes. That is why they have a definite shape and volume.

Liquid: The particles of liquid, though attracted to each other,move freely over each other. That is why they have definite volume but not a definite shape.

Therefore, a liquid occupies the shape of its container.

Gas: The particles of gas contain scattered molecules that are dispersed across a given volume.

Therefore, a gas neither has a definite shape nor volume.

7. Calculate the amount of energy required heat 100.g to <br> H2O(s) changes to H2O(l) at 0°C

Brrunno [24]

Answer:

33300J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of ice = 100g

Unknown:

Amount of energy = ?

Solution:

This is a phase change process from solid to liquid. In this case, the latent heat of melting of ice is 3.33 x 10⁵ J/kg.

So;

H = mL

m is the mass

L is the latent heat of melting ice

Now, insert the parameters and solve;

H = mL

mass from gram to kilogram;

100g gives 0.1kg

H = 0.1 x 3.33 x 10⁵ = 33300J

Triglycerides, fatty acids and glycerol differ with respect to polarity, H-bonds, and functional groups. Discuss the differences

Black_prince [1.1K]

Answer:

Triglycerides are actually fats made from condensation of fatty acids and glycerol, and used in making soap because it readily reacts caustic alkali and precipitates soap molcules while glycerol is the produced alongside

Explanation:

Triglycerides are made when 3 molecules of fatty acids condenses with one molecule of glycerol having 3-sites of OH where the condensation takes place with the COOH functional group in the fatty acids and 3 molecules of water
