Consider the reaction of NO and CO to form N2 and CO2, according to the balanced equation: 2 NO (g) + 2 CO (g) → N2 (g) + 2 CO2

Gekata [30.6K]

The image is not given in the question, it is attached below:

<u>Answer:</u> The excess reactant is NO, the limiting reactant is CO and the products are shown in the image attached below.

<u>Explanation:</u>

In the given image:

Red spheres represent oxygen atoms, blue spheres represent nitrogen atoms and black spheres represent carbon atoms

The combination of 1 black and 2 red spheres will represent carbon dioxide $(CO_2)$ compound

The combination of 2 blue spheres will represent nitrogen molecule $(N_2)$

The combination of 1 blue and 1 red sphere will represent nitrogen monoxide $(NO)$ compound

The combination of 1 black and 1 red sphere will represent nitrogen monoxide $(NO)$ compound

Limiting reagent is defined as the reagent which is completely consumed in the reaction and limits the formation of the product.

Excess reagent is defined as the reagent which is left behind after the completion of the reaction.

We are given:

Given moles of NO = 6 moles

Given moles of CO = 4 moles

For the given chemical equation:

$2NO(g)+2CO(g)\rightarrow N_2(g)+2CO_2(g)$

By stoichiometry of the reaction:

If 2 moles of CO reacts with 2 moles of NO

So, 4 moles of CO will react with = $\frac{2}{2}\times 4=4mol$ of NO

As the given amount of NO is more than the required amount. Thus, it is present in excess and is considered as an excess reagent.

Thus, CO is considered a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of the product.

Hence, the excess reactant is NO, the limiting reactant is CO and the products are shown in the image attached below.

How many moles of methane (CH4) could be made from 4.6 moles of hydrogen?

DENIUS [597]

Answer:

Number of moles of methane form = 2.3 mol

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of Hydrogen = 4.6 mol

Number of moles of methane form = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

C + 2H₂ → CH₄

Now we will compare the moles of methane with hydrogen from balance chemical equation.

H₂ : CH₄

2 : 1

4.6 : 1/2×4.6 = 2.3 mol

Form 3.6 moles of hydrogen 2.3 moles of methane can be formed.

The reaction nacl(s) → nacl(aq) is performed in a coffee cup calorimeter, using 100 ml of h2o(l) and 5.00g of nacl. if the tempe

MrRissso [65]

Since the density of water is 1 g /mL, hence there is 100 g of H2O. So total mass is:

m = 100 g + 5 g = 105 g

=> The heat of reaction can be calculated using the formula:

δhrxn = m C ΔT

where m is mass, C is heap capacity and ΔT is change in temperature = negative since there is a decrease

δhrxn = 105 g * 4.18 J/g°C * (-2.30°C)

δhrxn = -1,009.47 J

=> However this is still in units of J, so calculate the number of moles of NaCl.

moles NaCl = 5 g / (58.44 g / mol)

moles NaCl = 0.0856 mol

=> So the heat of reaction per mole is:

δhrxn = -1,009.47 J / 0.0856 mol

δhrxn = -11,798.69 J/mol = -11.8 kJ/mol

Which of the following is an example of an abiotic factor? A wind factor B Human C bacterium D duck

solmaris [256]

Abiotic factors, also called abiotic components, are non-living parts of the environment which affects the living organisms and their function in the ecosystem. I think the correct answer is A. Wind factor is the only non-living part from the choices.
