When heat is added to a substance, the molecules and atoms vibrate faster. As atoms vibrate faster, the space between atoms increases.
Answer:
Conducts electricity
Explanation:
an acid or base which strongly conducts electricity contains a large number of ions and is called a strong acid or base and an acid or base which conducts electricity only weakly contains a few ions and his called a weaker acid base
The controlled variable, I think.
Answer:
Explanation:
<u>1. Chemical quation</u>
The reaction of aluminium, sodium hydroxide and water is represented by the balanced chemical equation:
- 2Al(s) + 2NaOH(s) + 6H₂O(l) → 2Na[Al(OH)₄] (aq) + 3H₂(g) ↑
The coefficients of each reactant and product give the theoretical mole ratios.
To find the limiting reactant you compare the theoretical ratios with the ratio of the available substaces.
<u>2. Theoretical mole ratio:</u>
- 2 mol Al : 2 mol NaOH : 6 mol H₂O
Equivalent to
- 1 mol Al : 1 mol NaOH : 3 mol H₂O
<u>3. Actual ratio</u>
a) Convert each mass to number of moles
Formula:
- number of moles = mass in grams / molar mass
Al:
- molar mass = atomic mass = 26.982g/mol
- number of moles = 51.0g / 26.982g/mol = 1.89 mol
NaOH:
- number of moles = 84.1g / 39.997g/mol = 2.10 mol
H₂O:
- number of moles = 25.0g / 18.015g/mol = 1.39 mol
Divide all the mole amounts by the least number:
- Al: 1.89/1.39 = 1.36
- NaOH: 2.10 = 1.52
- H₂O: 1.39 = 1.00
- 1.36 mol Al : 1.52 mol NaOH : 1.00 mol H₂O
<u>4. Comparison</u>
<u />
Theoretical ratio:
- 1 mol Al : 1 mol NaOH : 3 mol H₂O
Actual ratio:
- 1.36 mol Al : 1.52 mol NaOH : 1.00 mol H₂O
Multiply by 3:
- 4.08 mol Al : 4.56 mol NaOH : 3.00 mol H₂O
Now, yo can see that the first two are in excess with respect the third one, making that the water consumes first, before any of the other two consumes. Therefore, the limiting reactant is the water.
Answer:
Explanation:
Law of conservation of mass:
According to the law of conservation mass, mass can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical equation.
This law was given by french chemist Antoine Lavoisier in 1789. According to this law mass of reactant and mass of product must be equal, because masses are not created or destroyed in a chemical reaction.
For example:
In given photosynthesis reaction:
6CO₂ + 6H₂O + energy → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂
there are six carbon atoms, eighteen oxygen atoms and twelve hydrogen atoms on the both side of equation so this reaction followed the law of conservation of mass.
Law of multiple proportion:
When two elements combine to form two or more compounds with different proportions, the weight of on element that combine with other elements in fixed proportion is in the ratio of small whole number.
For example:
Consider the example of carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide.
CO and CO₂
we are given with 1 g carbon on both case while 1.3 g oxygen for carbon monoxide and 2.6 for carbon dioxide. It means the ratio of oxygen is 1:2.
There is 1.3 g of oxygen in carbon monoxide for one g of carbon while in case of carbon dioxide there is 2.6 g of oxygen for one gram of carbon.
