Which term is used to describe the reactant that is used up completely and controls the amount of product that can be produced d
givi [52]

Answer: Option (c) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A limiting reagent is defined as a reagent that completely gets consumed in a chemical reaction. A limiting reagent limits the formation of products.

For example, we have given 5 mol of A and the reaction is 2A + 4B \rightarrow 2AB

Whereas when 4 mol B will react with 2 mol of A. Hence, 8 mol of B will react with 4 mol A as follows.

                        \frac{2}{4} \times 8 = 4 mol

As, the given moles of A is more than the required moles. Thus, it is considered as an excess reagent.

Hence, B is a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of products.

Thus, we can conclude that limiting reactant is the term used to describe the reactant that is used up completely and controls the amount of product that can be produced during a chemical reaction.

When 50 ml of 1.5 M HCl is added to 100 ml of 1.5 M sodium hydroxide solution, temperature
Georgia [21]

Answer:

Q = -1.318 KJ

Explanation:

We will use the assumption that this solution acts like water and thus we will use the specific heat capacity of water and when converting from mL to g, we will use the conversion like we do for water.

We are told that 50 mL of HCl reacts with 100 mL of NaOH.

Thus total mass; m = 50 + 100 = 150 mL

Converting to grams gives 150 g since we have assumed that the solution behaves like water.

We are given;

Initial temperature; T_i = 21.3° C

Final temperature; T_f = 23.4° C

ΔT = 23.4 - 21.3

ΔT = 2.1°C

Formula for quantity of heat is;

Q = mcΔT

c is specific heat capacity.

We will use c = 4.184 J/g°C since the solution is assumed to behave like water.

Thus;

Q = -(150 × 2.1 × 4.184)

Q = -1317.96 J

Negative sign is used because temperature was raised and thus reaction is exothermic.

Approximation to KJ gives; -1.318 KJ

Which of the following describes carbon dioxide? O Has polar covalent bonds and is a polar molecule O Has non-polar covalent bon
OLga [1]

Answer: Option "Has polar bonds and is a non-polar molecule" is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A covalent compound is defined as the compound in which there will be sharing of electrons between the combining atoms.

An ionic compound is defined as the compound in which there will be transfer of electrons from one atom to another.

  • A non-polar covalent compound is defined as the compound in which there will be equal sharing of electrons between the combining atoms.

For example, a chlorine atom has 7 valence electrons.

So, when a chlorine atom chemically combines with another chlorine atom then there occurs equal sharing of electrons.

Hence, molecule Cl_{2} is formed which is non-polar covalent compound in nature with non-polar covalent bond.

  • A polar covalent bond is defined as the bond in which there will be unequal sharing of electrons between the combining atoms.

For example, a carbon atom has 4 valence electrons and an oxygen atom has 6 valence electrons.

To complete their octet a carbon atom needs 4 more electrons and an oxygen atom needs 2 more electrons.

And, when one carbon and two oxygen atoms chemically combine together then there occurs unequal sharing of electrons.

Hence, a polar covalent compound CO_{2} is formed.

Since, oxygen is more electronegative than carbon atom. Hence, dipoles in the linear carbon dioxide molecules will cancel out each other.

Therefore, a carbon dioxide molecule is non-polar compound that has polar covalent bonds.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement, has polar bonds and is a non-polar molecule, correctly describes carbon dioxide.
