Increasing the surface area of the reactants will decrease the rate of the reaction true or false

Chemistry

3 0

Answer:

Increasing the surface area of a reactant increases the frequency of collisions and increases the reaction rate. Several smaller particles have more surface area than one large particle. The more surface area that is available for particles to collide, the faster the reaction will occur.

In a lab experiment 80.0 g of ammonia [NH3] and 120 g of oxygen are placed in a reaction vessel. At the end of the reaction 72.2
valentinak56 [21]

The percent yield of the reaction : 89.14%

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Reaction of Ammonia and Oxygen in a lab :

<em>4 NH₃ (g) + 5 O₂ (g) ⇒ 4 NO(g)+ 6 H₂O(g)</em>

mass NH₃ = 80 g

mol NH₃ (MW=17 g/mol):

\dfrac{80}{17}=4.706

mass O₂ = 120 g

mol O₂(MW=32 g/mol) :

\tt \dfrac{120}{32}=3.75

Mol ratio of reactants(to find limiting reatants) :

\tt \dfrac{4.706}{4}\div \dfrac{3.75}{5}=1.1765\div 0.75\rightarrow O_2~limiting~reactant(smaller~ratio)

mol of H₂O based on O₂ as limiting reactants :

mol H₂O :

\tt \dfrac{6}{5}\times 3.75=4.5

mass H₂O :

4.5 x 18 g/mol = 81 g

The percent yield :

\tt \%yield=\dfrac{actual}{theoretical}\times 100\%\\\\\%yield=\dfrac{72.2}{81}\times 100\%=89.14\%

Boron sulfide, B2S3(s), reacts violently with water to form dissolved boric acid (H3BO3) and hydrogen sulfide gas.Express your a
ioda

Answer:

Explanation:

From the statement of the problem,

  B₂S₃_{s} + H₂O_{l}  →  H₃BO₃_{aq} + H₂S_{g}

              B₂S₃ + H₂O  →  H₃BO₃ + H₂S

We that the above expression does not conform with the law of conservation of mass:

To obey the law, we need to derive a balanced reaction equation:

   Let us use the mathematical method to obtain a balanced equation.

let the balanced equation be:

                        aB₂S₃ + bH₂O  →  cH₃BO₃ + dH₂S

where a, b, c and d will make the equation balanced.

  Conservating B: 2a = c

                          S: 3a = d

                          H: 2b = 3c + 2d

                           O: b = 3c

   if a = 1,

      c = 2,

      b = 6,

      2d = 2(6) - 3(2) = 6, d = 3

Now we can input this into our equation:

                     B₂S₃ + 6H₂O  →  2H₃BO₃ + 3H₂S

    B₂S₃_{s} + 6H₂O_{l}  →  2H₃BO₃_{aq} + 3H₂S_{g}

If 14 moles of oxygen react with 14 moles of hydrogen to produce water, what is the
Leokris [45]
Hydrogen is the limiting reactant because when doing a stoichiometry equation for the reactants, hydrogen will be used completely by having a smaller yield and oxygen will be excess (7 moles to be exact)
