If 5.0 g of copper metal reacts with a solution of silver nitrate, how many grams of silver metal are recovered?

Chemistry

Answer:

16.9g

Explanation:Cu+2AgNO3→2Ag+Cu(NO3)2  

Cu will likely have a +2 oxidation state. It is higher in the activity series than Ag, so it is a stronger reducing agent and will reduce Ag in a displacement reaction. Then you need to balance the coefficients knowing than NO3 is -1 and Ag is +1.

Then to calculate the theoretical yield you need to compare moles of the reactants:

m(Cu)=5g

M(Cu)=63.55

n(Cu)=5/63.55=0.0787

By comparing coefficients you require twice as much silver: 0.157mol

n(Ag)=0.157

M(Ag)=107.86

m(Ag)=0.157x107.86=16.9g

Hence, the theoretical yield of this reaction would be 16.9g

Which of the following is not a conjugate acid-base pair?
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

A. H3O+/OH−

Explanation:

A conjugate acid-base pair are a pair of molecules that differ in 1 H⁺

A. The conjugate pair of H₃O⁺ = H₂O not OH⁻

B. The conjugate pair of NH₄⁺ is NH₃

C. The conjugate pair of C₂H₃O₂⁻ is HC₂H₃O₂

D. The conjugate pair of H₂SO₃ is HSO₃⁻

That means right option, that is not a conjugate acid-base pair, is:

<h3>A. H3O+/OH− </h3>

Assuming the reaction is at STP if 2.25 moles of Li are exposed to 3.25 moles of water, which is the limiting reactant?
crimeas [40]

Answer: Lithium

Explanation:

The ratio for the reaction of Li and water is the same, but there are more moles of water than lithium. Therefore, lithium is the limiting reactant.
