The limiting reagent (or limiting reactant or limiting agent) in a chemical reaction is a reactant that is totally consumed when the chemical reaction is completed. The amount of product formed is limited by this reagent, since the reaction cannot continue without it. If one or more other reagents are present in excess of the quantities required to react with the limiting reagent, they are described as excess reagents or excess reactants (xs).

Mercury(II) oxide (HgO) decomposes to form mercury (Hg) and oxygen (O2). The balanced chemical equation is shown below.
zavuch27 [327]

15.63 mol. You need 15.63 mol HgO to produce 250.0 g O_2.

<em>Step 1</em>. Convert <em>grams of O_2 to moles of O_2</em>

Moles of O_2 = 250.0 g O_2 × (1 mol O_2/32.00 g O_2) = 7.8125 mol O_2

<em>Step 2</em>. Use the molar ratio of HgO:O_2 to convert <em>moles of O_2 to moles of HgO </em>

Moles of HgO = 0.8885 mol O_2 × (2 mol HgO/1 mol O_2) = <em>15.63 mol HgO</em>

Which of the following is a chemical change? Explain your reasoning: (a) boiling canned soup; (b) toasting a slice of bread; (c)
schepotkina [342]

Answer:

(d) burning a log.

(b) toasting a slice of bread;

Explanation:

Chemical change -

A chemical change refers to , the change in which a new compound is formed .

From the question ,

  • boiling canned soup ,

Its is not a chemical process , since no new compound is formed , these is only change in state as the liquid is turning to gaseous sate .

  • Chopping a log ,

It is not a chemical process , as no new substance is formed .

  • toasting a slice of bread

It is a chemical change , in which bread surface is deposited by a brown coat via the process of heating , even this process is a irreversible in nature .

  • burning of log ,

It is a chemical change , as with the help of heating , the wood is turning to ashes .

Explain your reasoning. Match each explanation to the appropriate blanks in the sentences on the right.
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

A (I_2(g), Br_2 (g), Cl_2 (g), F_2 (B): The ranking can best be explained by the trend entropy decreases as 5. molar mass decreases.

B (H_2O_2 (g), H_2S(g), H_2O(g): The ranking can best be explained by the decreases a trend entropy decreases as 3. molar mass and structure complexity decreases.

C. (C(s, amorphous), C(s, graphite), C(s, diamond): The ranking can best be explained by the trend entropy decreases as 4. structure complexity decreases.

Explanation:

Hello.

In this case, we can understand a higher entropy when more disorder is present and a lower entropy when less disorder is present, thus:

A (I_2(g), Br_2 (g), Cl_2 (g), F_2 (B): The ranking can best be explained by the trend entropy decreases as 5. molar mass decreases since iodine has the greatest molar mass (254 g/mol) and fluorine the least molar mass (38 g/mol).

B (H_2O_2 (g), H_2S(g), H_2O(g): The ranking can best be explained by the decreases a trend entropy decreases as 3. molar mass and structure complexity decreases since hydrogen peroxide weights 34 g/mol as well as hydrogen sulfide but the peroxide has more bonds (more complex, higher entropy).

C. (C(s, amorphous), C(s, graphite), C(s, diamond): The ranking can best be explained by the trend entropy decreases as 4. structure complexity decreases since diamond has a well-ordered structure and amorphous carbon has a very disordered one.

Best regards.

A compound contains sulfur, oxygen, and chlorine. Analysis shows that it contains by mass 26.95% sulfur and 59.61% chlorine. Wha
sladkih [1.3K]

Answer:

SCl₂

Explanation:

In order to know the empirical formula, we have to follow a series of steps.

Step 1: Divide each percentage by the atomic mass

S: 26.95/32.07 = 0.8403

Cl: 59.61/35.45 = 1.682

Step 2: Divide all the numbers by the smallest one.

S: 0.8403/0.8403 = 1

Cl: 1.682/0.8403 ≈ 2

The empirical formula of the compound is SCl₂.
