Answer:
Explanation:
Given parameters:
Mass of aluminium oxide = 3.87g
Mass of water = 5.67g
Unknown:
Limiting reactant = ?
Solution:
The limiting reactant is the reactant in short supply in a chemical reaction. We need to first write the chemical equation and convert the masses given to the number of moles.
Using the number of moles, we can ascertain the limiting reactants;
Al₂O₃ + 3H₂O → 2Al(OH)₃
Number of moles;
Number of moles = 
molar mass of Al₂O₃ = (2x27) + 3(16) = 102g/mole
number of moles = 
= 0.04mole
molar mass of H₂O = 2(1) + 16 = 18g/mole
number of moles = 
= 0.32mole
From the reaction equation;
1 mole of Al₂O₃ reacted with 3 moles of H₂O
0.04 mole of Al₂O₃ will react with 3 x 0.04 mole = 0.12 mole of H₂O
But we were given 0.32 mole of H₂O and this is in excess of amount required.
This shows that Al₂O₃ is the limiting reactant
<span>When an electron, which is negatively charged, moves towards an electronegative atom, the electronegative atom pulls in the electron. This causes the electronegative atom to be reduced. This entire process also releases energy.</span>
4 3 and 5 are wrong:)
4 is true and 5 is false
4. insulators are really thick materials that keep electrons within their space.
For example, a charger the rubber is the insulators and the electrons are flowing inside of the charger so you don't get shocked.
5. without the force of attraction, there are no atoms:)
for number 3, its a trick question
Hope this helped!
(learned these this year so I didn't forget them:)
This problem is requiring the empirical formula for CaCO₃, which is its molecular formula, and turns out to be equal, this is A. CaCO3 according to the following:
<h3>Empirical formulas:</h3><h3 />
In chemistry, molecular formulas show both the actual type and number of atoms in a chemical compound, based on the elements across the periodic table and the subscripts standing for the number of atoms in the compound.
However, the empirical formula is a reduced expression of the molecular one, which shows the minimum number of atoms in a compound after simplifying to the smallest whole numbers.
In such a way, since the given compound is CaCO₃ and both Ca and C have a one as their subscript, it is not possible to simplify any further and therefore the empirical formula equals the molecular one this time, making the answer to be A. CaCO3.
