The material which is part of the system that absorbed heat is; The water.

Discussion:

According to the question;

  • Water was initially at room temperature.
  • We know by convention, ammonium nitrate is a cold substance.

In essence, the heat liberated from the system must have been absorbed by the water so that the outside of the container after mixing becomes cold.

This is so because water has a high specific heat capacity.

The material that absorbs the heat of the system is water owing to its high specific heat capacity.

The specific heat capacity of a substance refers to the amount of heat that is capable of increasing the temperature of 1 Kg of a body by 1 K. The higher the specific heat capacity, the more the amount of heat that the body can absorb without temperature change.

The material that absorbs the heat of the system is water because water has a higher specific heat capacity than all the other materials present.

if you mixed 72.9g hydrochloric acid(aq) with 150g silver acetate(aq), what would be the limiting reagent?​
horsena [70]

Answer:

                      Silver Acetate would be the Limiting Reagent.

Explanation:

                    The balance chemical equation for the given double displacement reaction is as;

                            HCl + AgC₂H₃O₂ → AgCl + HC₂H₃O₂

Step 1: <u>Calculate Moles of Starting Materials:</u>

Moles of HCl:

                      Moles  =  Mass / M.Mass

                      Moles  =  72.9 g / 36.46

                      Moles =  1.99 moles

Moles of AgC₂H₃O₂:

                      Moles  =  150 g / 166.91 g/mol

                      Moles  =  0.898 moles

Step 2: <u>Find out Limiting reagent as:</u>

According to balance chemical equation.

              1 mole of HCl reacts with  =  1 mole of AgC₂H₃O₂

So,

         1.99 moles of HCl will react with  =  X moles of AgC₂H₃O₂

Solving for X,

                     X =  1.99 mol × 1 mol / 1 mol

                     X =  1.99 mol of AgC₂H₃O₂

Hence, to completely consume 1.99 moles of Hydrochloric acid we will require 1.99 moles of Silver Acetate, But, we are provided with only 0.898 moles of Silver Acetate. This means Silver Acetate will consume first in the reaction therefore, it is the LIMITING REAGENT.

What are atoms?
user100 [1]

Answer:

The smallest particle of a chemical element can be defined as an atom.

Explanation:

The number of protons in one atom of an element determines the atom's identity, and the number of electrons determines its electrical charge.

a single electron or one of two or more electrons in the outer shell of an atom that is responsible for the chemical properties of the atom is known as valence electrons.

An atom's reactivity is its tendency to lose or gain electrons. ... This is because they have one outer electron and losing it gives them the stability of a outer electron shell as the next level... The reactivities of elements can be predicted by periodic trends.

The reaction between iron(II) oxide and carbon monoxide produces iron and carbon dioxide. How many moles of iron can be obtained
aleksandrvk [35]

Answer:

1.5 moles of Fe produced.

Explanation:

Given data:

Moles of FeO react = 1.50 mol

Moles of iron produced = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

FeO + CO       →       Fe + CO₂

Now we will compare the moles of ironoxide with iron.

                           FeO          :           Fe

                              1             :             1

                             1.5           :           1.5

Thus from 1.5 moles of FeO 1.5 moles of Fe are produced.
