Limiting Reactant

Chemistry
1 answer:
liraira [26]3 years ago
3 0

Answer:

(1) Cl₂ is the limiting reactant.

(2) 8.18 g

Explanation:

  • 2Na(s) + Cl₂(g) → 2NaCl(s)

First we <u>convert the given masses of reactants into moles</u>, using their <em>respective molar masses</em>:

  • Na ⇒ 12.0 g ÷ 23 g/mol = 0.522 mol Na
  • Cl₂ ⇒ 5.00 g ÷ 70.9 g/mol = 0.070 mol Cl₂

0.070 moles of Cl₂ would react completely with (2 * 0.070) 0.14 moles of Na. There are more Na moles than that, so Na is the reactant in excess while Cl₂ is the limiting reactant.

Then we <u>calculate how many moles of NaCl are formed</u>, <em>using the limiting reactant</em>:

  • 0.070 mol Cl₂ * \frac{2molNaCl}{1molCl_2} = 0.14 mol NaCl

Finally we <u>convert NaCl moles into grams</u>:

  • 0.14 mol NaCl * 58.44 g/mol = 8.18 g

riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

0.297 mol/L

Explanation:

<em>A chemist prepares a solution of potassium dichromate by measuring out 13.1 g of potassium dichromate into a 150 mL volumetric flask and filling the flask to the mark with water. Calculate the concentration in mol/L of the chemist's potassium dichromate solution. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.</em>

<em />

Step 1: Calculate the moles corresponding to 13.1 g of potassium dichromate

The molar mass of potassium dichromate is 294.19 g/mol.

13.1 g × (1 mol/294.19 g) = 0.0445 mol

Step 2: Convert the volume of solution to L

We will use the relationship 1 L = 1000 mL.

150 mL × (1 L/1000 mL) = 0.150 L

Step 3: Calculate the concentration of the solution in mol/L

C = 0.0445 mol/0.150 L = 0.297 mol/L
