Answer:
53.29% of acetic acid is Oxygen
Explanation:
Step 1: Given data
Acetic acid it's molecular formula is HC2H3O2. This means it consists of 3 elements Carbon, Hydrogen and oxygen.
Step 2: the molar masses
The molecular mass of acetic acid is:
4* H = 4* 1.01 g/mole
2* C = 2*12 g/mole
2*O = 2* 16 g/mole
Total molar mass = 4+ 24+32 = 60.052 g/mole
Step 3: Calculate the mass percent
32 g of the 60.052 g is Oxygen
(32/60.052) *100% = 53.29%
53.29% of acetic acid is Oxygen.
Answer: The process by which a beam of light or other system of waves is spread out as a result of passing through a narrow aperture or across an edge, typically accompanied by interference between the wave forms produced.
Hope this helps :D
The balanced equation for the reaction is as follows;
Zn + 2HCl --> ZnCl₂ + H₂
stoichiometry of Zn to HCl is 1:2
limiting reagent is the reactant that is fully consumed in the reaction.
the amount of product formed depends on amount of limiting reactant present.
The excess reactant is when it has been provided in excess and only a fraction of the provided amount is used up in the reaction.
Amount of Zn moles - 0.5 mol
Amount of HCl moles - 0.6 mol
If Zn is provided, number of HCl moles reacted - 0.5 x 2 = 1.0 mol of HCl is required, but only 0.6 mol of HCl is provided.
HCl is therefore the limiting reactant,
Number of Zn moles required - 0.6 mol /2 = 0.3 mol
But 0.5 mol are given, therefore 0.2 mol of Zn is in excess
