1. a) Anthony and Joseph create a start up company to make batteries for electric cars. Iron(III) phosphate is needed to create

the batteries. If 27.8 grams of iron (II) chloride reacts with 61.9 grams of sodium phosphate, what is the limiting reagent?
FeCl3(aq) + Na3PO4(aq) FePO4(s) + 3 NaCl(aq)

Answer:

 LR is Na₃PO₄  

Explanation:

A quick way to determine the limiting reactant in a process is to convert reactant values to moles and then divide by the respective coefficient of the balanced equation. The smaller number of the division is the limiting reactant. For the given reaction, the rxn ratio of reactants is 1:1 so only the smaller mole value gives limiting reactant. However, if the reaction is NOT 1:1 the one must divide by respective coefficient to identify the smallest value and the limiting reactant.

This problem:

                          FeCl3(aq)          +    Na3PO4(aq)   => FePO4(s) + 3 NaCl(aq)

Given:                  27.8g                          61.9g

moles:        27.8g/162.2g/mole      1.9g/163.94g/mole

                    = 0.1714 mole               = 0.0116 mole

÷ coef.         => 0.1714/1 = 0.1714      => 0.0116/1 = 0.0116

smaller value is LR => =>  =>  =>  => => LR is Na₃PO₄              

Hope this helps. Doc :-)

If water were a linear (not bent) molecule like co2, electrostatic interactions between water molecules would be much weaker. wh
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer;

The partial negative charge on oxygen would stick out less and be less able to participate in hydrogen bonding.

Explanation;

Water is a polar molecule because the electrons are not shared equally, they're closer to the oxygen atom than the hydrogen.

-Normally, the water molecule is a bent shape because of the pair of lone electrons - they repulse each other and exert a compression to the hydrogen atoms at a slight 104º angle. It is a bent molecular geometry that results from tetrahedral electron pair geometry.

-The 2 lone electron pairs exerts a little extra repulsion on the two bonding hydrogen atoms to create a slight compression to a 104 degrees bond angle. Therefore, the water molecule is bent molecular geometry because the lone electron pairs.

Thus, If water were a linear molecule like co2, electrostatic interactions between water molecules would be much weaker, then the partial negative charge on oxygen would stick out less and be less able to participate in hydrogen bonding.
