Since you have not included the chemical reaction I will explain you in detail.
1) To determine the limiting agent you need two things:
- the balanced chemical equation
- the amount of every reactant involved as per the chemical equation
2) The work is:
- state the mole ratios of all the reactants: these are the ratios of the coefficientes of the reactans in the balanced chemical equation.
- determine the number of moles of each reactant with this formula:
number of moles = (mass in grams) / (molar mass)
- set the proportion with the two ratios (theoretical moles and actual moles)
- compare which reactant is below than the stated by the theoretical ratio.
3) Example: determine the limiting agent in this reaction if there are 100 grams of each reactant:
i) Chemical equation: H₂ + O₂ → H₂O
ii) Balanced chemical equation: 2H₂ + O₂ → 2H₂O
iii) Theoretical mole ration of the reactants: 2 moles H₂ : 1 mol O₂
iv) Covert 100 g of H₂ into number of moles
n = 100g / 2g/mol = 50 mol of H₂
v) Convert 100 g of O₂ to moles:
n = 100 g / 32 g/mol = 3.125 mol
vi) Actual ratio: 50 mol H₂ / 3.125 mol O₂
vii) Compare the two ratios:
2 mol H₂ / 1 mol O ₂ < 50 mol H₂ / 3.125 mol O₂
Conclusion: the actual ratio of H₂ to O₂ is greater than the theoretical ratio, meaning that the H₂ is in excess respect to the O₂. And that means that O₂ will be consumed completely while some H₂ will remain without react.
Therefore, the O₂ is the limiting reactant in this example.
Answer:
Distance: 16m Displacement: 8m North
Explanation:
Total distance is the total amount traveled, regardless of direction. So, you would just add 12 and 4 to get a total distance of 16m. Displacement is the distance/direction from the start to the end point, regardless of which way you got there. So, to find displacement, you just subtract:
12m North - 4m South = 8m North
** I could be wrong so definitely double check this answer with a similar question**
Without plastic, we wouldn't have as much of an environmental problem as we have now. Even though plastic has a lot of negatives, it's also made our lives a lot easier over past years. ... Our cars would have been different since a lot of the materials used inside are made out of plastic.
Answer:
Ethanol has covalent intramolecular bonds. Ethanol is polar. Ethanol has dispersion intermolecular forces. Dimethyl ether is polar. Dimethyl ether forms hydrogen bonds. Dimethyl ether has dispersion intermolecular forces.
Explanation:
Ethanol is not a carboxylic acid. It is an alcohol and it has covelent intramolecular bonds. It is polar and it also has dispersion intermolecular forces.
Dimethyl ether is also polar and it has forms hydrogen bonds. It also has dispersion intermolecular forces. Dimethyl ether does not have ionic intramolecular forces
The number of mole of Ca reacted is:
4.86 g Ca/ (40.08 g/mol Ca)= 0.121 mol Ca
Because Ca reacted completely with oxygen and there is 2 mol Ca, there is 1 mol O2 reacted.
Total mass of oxygen that reacted is:
0.121 mol Ca* (1mol O2/ 2 mol Ca)* (32 g O2/ 1 mol O2)= 1.94 g O2 reacted.
Hope this would help~
