the cell will expand as water moves into it.
Answer:
HCl
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of Zn = 50 g
Mass of HCl = 50 g
Limiting reactant = ?
Solution:
Chemical equation:
Zn + 2HCl → ZnCl₂ + H₂
Number of moles of Zn:
Number of moles = mass / molar mass
Number of moles = 50 g/ 65.38 g/mol
Number of moles = 0.76 mol
Number of moles of HCl:
Number of moles = mass / molar mass
Number of moles = 50 g/ 36.5 g/mol
Number of moles = 1.4 mol
Now we will compare the moles of Reactant with product.
Zn : ZnCl₂
1 : 1
0.76 : 0.76
Zn : H₂
1 : 1
0.76 : 0.76
HCl : ZnCl₂
2 : 1
1.4 : 1/2×1.4 = 0.7
HCl : H₂
2 : 1
1.4 : 1/2×1.4 = 0.7
Less number of moles of product are formed by HCl it will act limiting reactant.
1. Q=112.8 kJ
2. Q=5.01 kJ
<h3>Further explanation</h3>
The heat required for phase change :
Q = mLf
Lf=latent heat of fusion
- vaporization/condensation
Q = mLv
Lv=latent heat of vaporization
1.
m=50 g=0.05 kg
Lv (water) = 2256 kJ/kg
2.
m=15 g=0.015 kg
Lf for water = 334 kj/kg
