Answer: There are
atoms present in 0.500 mol of
.
Explanation:
According to the mole concept, there are
atoms present in 1 mole of a substance.
In a molecule of
there is only one carbon atom present. Therefore, number of carbon atoms present in 0.500 mol of
are as follows.

Thus, we can conclude that there are
atoms present in 0.500 mol of
.
Balanced equation:
<span>CaO + 2 HCl --> CaCl2 + H2O </span>
<span>Calculate moles of each reactant: </span>
<span>60.4 g CaO / 56.08 g/mol = 1.08 mol CaO </span>
<span>69.0 g HCl / 36.46 g/mol = 1.89 mol HCl </span>
<span>Identify the limiting reactant: </span>
<span>Moles CaO needed to react with all HCl: </span>
<span>1.89 mol HCl X (1 mol CaO / 2 mol HCl) = 0.946 mol CaO </span>
<span>Because you have more CaO than that available, HCl is the limiting reactant. </span>
<span>Calculate moles and mass CaCl2: </span>
<span>1.89 mol HCl X (1 mol CaCl2 / 2mol HCl) X 111.0 g/mol = 105 g CaCl2</span>
