<u>Answer:</u> 4.999 moles of excess reactant will be left over.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Limiting reagent is defined as the reagent which is completely consumed in the reaction and limits the formation of the product.

Excess reagent is defined as the reagent which is left behind after the completion of the reaction.

The number of moles is defined as the ratio of the mass of a substance to its molar mass.

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}       .....(1)

Given mass of aluminium carbide = 112 g

Molar mass of aluminium carbide = 143.96 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1:

\text{Moles of aluminium carbide}=\frac{112g}{143.96g/mol}=0.778mol

For the given chemical reaction:

2Al_4C_3(s)+12H_2O(l)\rightarrow 3CH_4(g)+4Al(OH)_3(s)

By the stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of aluminium carbide reacts with 12 moles of water

So, 0.778 moles of aluminium carbide will react with = \frac{12}{2}\times 0.778=4.668 mol of water

Given mass of water = 174 g

Molar mass of water = 18 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1:

\text{Moles of water}=\frac{174g}{18g/mol}=9.667mol

Moles of excess reactant (water) left = 9.667 - 4.668 = 4.999 moles

Hence, 4.999 moles of excess reactant will be left over.

What do methanol (CH2O), ethanoic acid (C2H4O2), and glucose (C3H6O3) all have in common?
tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

d

Explanation:

Carbohydrates are compounds containing carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. Therefore, a is true.

An empirical formula is the simplest ratio of atoms present in a compound. Therefore, C2H4O2 and C3H6O3, (if you simplified them like you would a fraction) would be CH2O. Therefore b is correct,

They also have the same % composition, with a ratio of 1 carbon : 2 hydrogen : 1 oxygen. Therefore, c is correct.

Since a, b and c are all correct, the answer is d, all of the above are true.

State whether the following liquids are miscible with hexane (C6H14) by entering "yes" or "no".
NeTakaya

Benzene, C6H6 is miscible with hexane (C6H14)  but iron (IIl) nitrate, and Sulfuric acid, H2SO4Fe(NO3)3 are not miscible with hexane (C6H14)

Since organic or non polar dissolves in nom polar solvent.here both benzene and hexane (C6H14) are non polar solvents.But iron (IIl) nitrate, Fe(NO3)3 and Sulfuric acid, H2SO4 are inorganic and polar, therefore cannot dissolve with non polar solvent like hexane.

Miscible is a flowery heard that oil and water aren't very miscible substances, while seltzer and orange juice are miscible and scrumptious.Miscible beverages are also described as liquids that can blend to form a homogeneous solution. Miscible drinks generally blend with out limit, meaning they may be soluble at all quantities.

Miscible approach the materials blend completely. If  substances are miscible, they're also absolutely soluble in each other no matter the order of creation. for example, tetrahydrofuran and water are miscible.
