What mass of CaCO3 is required to react completely with 0.56 L of HCl?
Lina20 [59]
The balanced equation for the above reaction is as follows;
CaCO₃ + 2HCl ----> CaCl₂ + H₂O + CO₂
stoichiometry of CaCO₃ to HCl is 1:2
molar volume states that 1 mol of any gas occupies a volume of 22.4 L at STP.
volume of 22.4 L occupied by 1 mol
therefore 0.56 L occupied by - 0.56 L / 22.4 L/mol = 0.025 mol
number of HCl moles reacted - 0.025 mol
2 mol of HCl reacts with 1 mol of CaCO₃
therefore 0.025 mol reacts with - 0.025/2 = 0.0125 mol 
mass of CaCO₃ required - 0.0125 mol x 100 g/mol = 1.25 g 
1.25 g of CaCO₃ is required

Interaction of Orchids on A tree? ​
ziro4ka [17]

Answers:

<h2>The symbiotic relationship that occurs between an orchid and a tree would be classified as commensalism. Most orchids are epiphytes, which mean that that they grow on other plants. This benefits the orchids because they can grow on top of the canopy, which prevents the orchids from being walked on or eaten by ground-dwelling organisms.</h2><h3 /><h3>I HOPE TO IT'S HELP YOU:)</h3>

If 3.0 moles of x and 4.0 moles of y react according to the hypothetical reaction below, how many moles of the excess reactant w
Lesechka [4]
Firstly the limiting reactant should be identified. Limiting reactant is the reactant that is in limited supply, the amount of product formed depends on the moles present of the limiting reactant.

the stoichiometry of x to y = 1:2
1 mole of x reacts with 2 moles of y
if x is the limiting reactant, there are 3 moles of x, then 6 moles of y should react, however there are only 4 moles of y. Therefore y is the limiting reactant and x is in excess.
4 moles of y reacts with 2 moles of x 
since there are 3 moles of x initially and only 2 moles are used up, excess amount of x is 1 mol thats in excess.

4. Given the balanced equation: 2Na + S → Na₂S
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

Option D. 30 g

Explanation:

The balanced equation for the reaction is given below:

2Na + S —> Na₂S

Next, we shall determine the masses of Na and S that reacted from the balanced equation. This is can be obtained as:

Molar mass of Na = 23 g/mol

Mass of Na from the balanced equation = 2 × 23 = 46 g

Molar mass of S = 32 g/mol

Mass of S from the balanced equation = 1 × 32 = 32 g

SUMMARY:

From the balanced equation above,

46 g of Na reacted with 32 g of S.

Finally, we shall determine the mass sulphur, S needed to react with 43 g of sodium, Na. This can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

46 g of Na reacted with 32 g of S.

Therefore, 43 g of Na will react with = (43 × 32)/46 = 30 g of S.

Thus, 30 g of S is needed for the reaction.
