Answer:

10.1g of H₂ are produced

Explanation:

To solve this question we need, first, to convert the mass of each reactant to moles and, using the chemical reaction, find limiting reactant. With limiting reactant we can find the moles of H2 and its mass:

Moles Zn -Molar mass: 65.38g/mol-:

307g * (1mol / 65.38g) = 4.696 moles

Moles HCl -Molar mass: 36.46g/mol-:

381g HCl * (1mol / 36.46g) = 10.45 moles

For a complete reaction of 10.45 moles of HCl are required:

10.45 moles HCl * (1mol Zn / 2mol HCl) = 5.22 moles Zn

As there are 4.696 moles of Zn, Zn is the limiting reactant

The moles of H₂ produced = Moles of Zn added = 4.696 moles. The mass is-Molar mass H₂ = 2.16g/mol-:

4.696 moles * (2.16g / mol) =

<h3>10.1g of H₂ are produced</h3>

What can be said about an Endothermic reaction with a negative entropy change?The reaction isa. spontaneous at all temperatures.

Lyrx [107]

Answer:

1. d. The reaction is spontaneous in the reverse direction at all temperatures.

2. c. The reaction is spontaneous at low temperatures.

Explanation:

The spontaneity of a reaction is associated with the Gibbs free energy (ΔG). When ΔG < 0, the reaction is spontaneous. When ΔG > 0, the reaction is non-spontaneous. ΔG is related to the enthalpy (ΔH) and the entropy (ΔS) through the following expression:

ΔG = ΔH - T. ΔS [1]

where,

T is the absolute temperature (T is always positive)

1. What can be said about an Endothermic reaction with a negative entropy change?

If the reaction is endothermic, ΔH > 0. Let's consider ΔS < 0. According to eq. [1], ΔG is always positive. The reaction is not spontaneous in the forward direction at any temperature. This means that the reaction is spontaneous in the reverse direction at all temperatures.

2. What can be said about an Exothermic reaction with a negative entropy change?

If the reaction is exothermic, ΔH < 0. Let's consider ΔS < 0. According to eq. [1], ΔG will be negative when |ΔH| > |T.ΔS|, that is, at low temperatures.

Is an insoluble solid that forms from two solution?

Mnenie [13.5K]

Precipitation reactions are those reactions in which two aqueous solutions, when mixed, react to form a solid. The solid thus formed is known as a precipitate. Thus, a precipitate is an insoluble solid (recall that an insoluble substance is one which does not dissolve). ... We have defined precipitates as insoluble solid

If you react 2.00 g of hydrogen completely using 15.87 g of oxygen to produce water, how much water (in grams) will you have?

leonid [27]

Answer:

The amount (mass) of water we will have is 17.869 grams

Explanation:

The molar mass of hydrogen gas H₂ = 2.016 grams/mole

The molar mass of oxygen gas = 31.999 g/mol

Therefore, 2.00 g of hydrogen will give;

2.00/2.016 = 0.9921 moles of H₂ gas and

15.87 g of O₂ will give;

15.87/31.999 = 0.49595 moles

The reaction is as follows;

2H₂ (g) + O₂ (g) → 2H₂O (l)

Two moles of H₂ react with one mole of O₂ to produce two moles of H₂O

Therefore 0.9921 moles of H₂ will react with 0.9921/2 or 0.49595 moles of O₂ to produce 0.9921 moles of H₂O

From the above we note that all the H₂ and O₂ are completely consumed to form 0.9921 moles of H₂O

Molar mass of H₂O = 18.01528 g/mol

Number of moles = Mass/(Molar mass)

∴ Mass of H₂O = (Molar mass) × (Number of moles)

= 18.01528 g/mol × 0.9921 moles = 17.869 grams

Therefore the amount (mass) of water we will have = 17.869 grams.
