Answer: -
3.151 M
Explanation: -
Let the volume of the solution be 1000 mL.
At 25.0 °C, Density = 1.260 g/ mL
Mass of the solution = Density x volume
= 1.260 g / mL x 1000 mL
= 1260 g
At 25.0 °C, the molarity = 3.179 M
Number of moles present per 1000 mL = 3.179 mol
Strength of the solution in g / mol
= 1260 g / 3.179 mol = 396.35 g / mol (at 25.0 °C)
Now at 50.0 °C
The density is 1.249 g/ mL
Mass of the solution = density x volume = 1.249 g / mL x 1000 mL
= 1249 g.
Number of moles present in 1249 g = Mass of the solution / Strength in g /mol
=
= 3.151 moles.
So 3.151 moles is present in 1000 mL at 50.0 °C
Molarity at 50.0 °C = 3.151 M
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
