Reactant C is the limiting reactant in this scenario.

Explanation:

The reactant in the balanced chemical reaction which gives the smaller amount or moles of product is the limiting reagent.

Balanced chemical reaction is:

A + 2B + 3C → 2D + E

number of moles

A = 0.50 mole

B = 0.60 moles

C = 0.90 moles

Taking A as the reactant

1 mole of A reacted to form 2 moles of D

0.50 moles of A will produce $\frac{2}{1}$ = $\frac{x}{0.50}$

thus 0.50 moles of A will produce 1 mole of D

Taking B as the reactant

2 moles of B reacted to form 2 moles of D

0.60 moles of B reacted to form x moles of D

$\frac{2}{2}$ = $\frac{x}{0.6}$

x = 2 moles of D is produced.

Taking C as the reactant:

3 moles of C reacted to form 2 moles of D

O.9 moles of C reacted to form x moles of D

$\frac{2}{3}$ = $\frac{x}{0.9}$

= 0.60 moles of D is formed.

Thus C is the limiting reagent in the given reaction as it produces smallest mass of product.

The enthalpy change for the explosion of ammonium nitrate with fuel oil is –7198 kJ for every 3 moles of NH4NO3. What is the ent

anastassius [24]

Answer:

−2399.33 kJ

Explanation:

If NH₄NO₃ reacts with fuel oil to give a ΔH of -7198 for every 3 moles of NH₄NO₃

What is the enthalpy change for 1.0 mole of NH₄NO₃ in this reaction

∴ For every 1 mole, we will have $\frac{1}{3}$ of the total enthaply of the 3 moles

so, to determine the 1 mole; we have:

$\frac{1}{3}*(-7198kJ)$

= −2399.33 kJ

∴ the enthalpy change for 1.0 mole of NH₄NO₃ in this reaction = −2399.33 kJ

Consider NH3 and PH3. Electronegativities: P = 2.1, H = 2.1, N=3.0. Which statement is false?

NikAS [45]

Answer:

The P-H bonds are more polar than the N-H bonds.

Explanation:

Phosphine is a polar molecule with non-polar bonds. The phosphorus atom is bonded to three hydrogen atoms and the phosphorus atom has a lone pair of electrons. Since hydrogen and phosphorus are equal in electronegativity, it implies that they attract the shared pairs of electrons the same amount,hence bonding electrons are shared equally making the covalent bonds non-polar.

The lone pair of electrons on phosphorus causes the molecule to be asymmetrical with respect to charge distribution this is why the molecule is polar even though the are non-polar bonds in the molecule.

Looking at the values of electro negativity stated in the question, one can easily see that the difference in electro negativity between nitrogen and hydrogen is 0.9 while the difference in electro negativity between phosphorus and hydrogen is zero. It is clear that NH3 is naturally more polar than PH3 since each individual N-H bond in NH3 is a polar bond while the individual P-H bonds in PH3 are nonpolar.

A spontaneous reaction is taking place in a flask. When you touch the flask, it feels hot and gets hotter as the reaction progresses....(c,f,h)

A spontaneous reaction is taking place in a flask. You notice the formation of gas bubbles intensifies as the reaction progresses....(c,d,I)

A solid in a closed flask begins to melt. (You can consider this a phase change.)....(b,d,g)

A liquid begins to appear on the inside of a closed flask. At first glance before the liquid began to appear, you might have thought the flask was empty. (You can consider this a phase change.)....(a,e,h)

Explanation:

Now it is necessary here to state the equation for ∆G

∆G= ∆H-T∆S

The values of ∆G depends on the relative values of ∆H, T and ∆S.

When heat is evolved by a system, ∆H is negative, when heat is absorbed by a system, ∆H is positive.

When gases are evolved, ∆S is positive, when gases turn to liquids or solids ∆S is negative.

Let us also recall that, for the melting process ∆S positive ( solid changes to liquid), ∆H is positive(energy is absorbed) and T increases( the substance is heated). Hence ∆G is negative

For the condensation process; ∆H is negative (heat is evolved), ∆S is negative (gas changes to liquid) and T is decreased hence ∆G is positive.
