Answer:

A balanced equation is an equation for a chemical reaction in which the number of atoms for each element in the reaction and the total charge is the same for both the reactants and the products. In other words, the mass and the charge are balanced on both sides of the reaction.

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

Hydrofluoric acid (HF) can be prepared according to the following equation:

Artemon [7]

Given the balanced equation:

( Reaction type : double replacement)

CaF2 + H2SO4 → CaSO4 + 2HFI

We can determine the number of grams prepared from the quantity of 75.0 H2SO4, and 63.0g of CaF2 by converting these grams to moles per substance.

This can be done by evaluating the atomic mass of each element of the substance, and totaling it to find the molecular mass.

For H2SO4 or hydrogen sulfate it's molecular mass is the sum of the quantity of atomic mass per element. H×2 + S×1 + O×4 = ≈1.01×2 + ≈32.06×1 + ≈16×4 = 2.02 + 32.06 + 64 = 98.08 u (Dalton's or Da) or g / mol.

For CaF2 or calcium fluoride, it's molecular mass adds 1 atomic mass of calcium and 2 atomic masses of fluoride due to the number of atoms.

Ca×1 + F×2 = ≈40.07×1 + ≈19×2 = 40.08 + 38 = 78.07 u (Da or Dalton's) or g / mol.

If you can smell your grandmother’s perfume from across the room, you are experiencing the result of which liquid property?

cestrela7 [59]

The appropriate answer is D. volatility. Volatility refers to the susceptibility of liquids to vaporize. Perfume is liquid when applied but because of volatility, it has a tendency to vaporize and so it will convert to a gas and diffuse across the room. The process by which a liquid changes to a vapor is called evaporation.
