Answer:

Radioisotope therapy is a procedure in which a liquid form of radiation is administered internally through infusion or injection. RIT's ultimate purpose is to treat cancerous cells with minimal damage to the normal surrounding tissue. These therapies are not normally the first approach used to fight a patient's cancer.

A 1.25 g sample of aluminum is reacted with 3.28 g of copper (II) sulfate. What is the limiting reactant?
KengaRu [80]

Answer:

d. Copper (II) sulfate

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of Al = 1.25 g

Mass of CuSO₄ = 3.28 g

What is limiting reactant = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2Al + 3CuSO₄   →   Al₂ (SO₄)₃ + 3Cu

Number of moles of Al:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 1.25 g/ 27 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.05 mol

Number of moles of CuSO₄:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 3.28 g/ 159.6 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.02 mol

now we will compare the moles of reactant with product.

               Al           :           Al₂ (SO₄)₃

                 2          :             1

               0.05       :          1/2×0.05=0.025 mol

                Al           :            Cu

                 2            :              3

               0.05         :            3/2×0.05 = 0.075 mol

         CuSO₄           :           Al₂ (SO₄)₃

                3             :             1

               0.02         :          1/3×0.02=0.007 mol

         CuSO₄           :            Cu

               3               :              3

               0.02         :              0.02

Less number of moles of reactants are produced by CuSO₄ thus it will act as limiting reactant.

Which formula is an empirical formula? (1) CH4 (2) C2 H6 (3) C3 H6 (4) C4 H10
rosijanka [135]
CH4 is an emprirical formula as it shows the simplest ratio of the numbers of different atoms present in the molecule. The empirical formula for CH4 is also the same as the molecular formula.
The other compunds can be simplified so they are not the empirical formula of compounds.
Hope this helps :).

If alcohol is ingested rapidly, the _____ will rise sharply within twenty minutes. blood pressure ABC LD50 BAC
GaryK [48]
The Blood Alcohol Level (BAC) will rise. Because it usually peaks about 30 minutes after drinking, a sharp spike at 20 minutes makes sense. 

BAC.
