First convert the amount of grams you have of each substance to moles. Find your limiting reactant by calculating how many grams are needed to complete this reaction. If done correctly, you would see that we need .226 moles of Potassium to complete this reaction. However, we only have .118 moles of Potassium, so K must be our limiting reactant. Then use the moles of K to find out how many moles of K^2S are made. Then convert the amount of moles of K^2S to grams and you should get 10.3 g K^2S

Instrumental methods need only a microscopic sample to return an accurate result. Why is this so?
uranmaximum [27]
Instrumental methods of analysis rely on machines.The visualization of single molecules, single biological cells, biological tissues and nanomaterials is very important and attractive approach in analytical science.
There are several different types of instrumental analysis. Some are suitable for detecting and identifying elements, while others are better suited to compounds. In general, instrumental methods of analysis are:
-Fast
-Accurate (they reliably identify elements and compounds)
-Sensitive (they can detect very small amounts of a substance in a small amount of sample)

A scientist has isolated a chemical compound that is partially soluble in water. The chemical helps keep water-soluble substance
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

Based on the information, the compound is a phospholipid.

Explanation:

Phospholipids are made up of a fatty acid tail which is hydrophobic in nature and a head which comprises of phosphates that is hydrophilic in nature. Hence, phospholipids are amphiphilic compounds so they will be partially soluble in water and will allow water-soluble substances to mix with fats.

Hence, the composition of the substance described in the question confirms that is a phospholipid. As it's structure contains hydrocarbon and phosphorus and might also contain nitrogen.

describe the energy inputs and outputs for the campfire. Use the law of conservation of energy to construct a valid qualitative
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

The essence including its particular subject is outlined in the following portion mostly on clarification.

Explanation:

  • The energy throughout the campfire comes from either the wood's latent chemical energy until it has been burned to steam up and launch up across the campfire. The electricity generation for something like a campfire seems to be in the context including its potential chemical energy which is contained throughout the firewood used only to inflame the situation.
  • The energy output seems to be in the different types of heat energy radiating across the campfire, laser light generated off by the blaze, and perhaps a little number of electrical waves, registered throughout the firewood cracking whilst they combust throughout the blaze.

and,

chemical energy ⇒ heat energy + light energy + sound energy

Calculate the heat of reaction, ΔH°rxn, for overall reaction for the production of methane, CH4.
Lesechka [4]

<u>Answer:</u> The enthalpy of the reaction for the production of CH_4 is coming out to be -74.9 kJ

<u>Explanation:</u>

Enthalpy change is defined as the difference in enthalpies of all the product and the reactants each multiplied with their respective number of moles. It is represented as \Delta H^o

The equation used to calculate enthalpy change is of a reaction is:  

\Delta H^o_{rxn}=\sum [n\times \Delta H^o_f_{(product)}]-\sum [n\times \Delta H^o_f_{(reactant)}]

For the given chemical reaction:

C(s)+2H_2(g)\rightarrow CH_4(g)

The equation for the enthalpy change of the above reaction is:

\Delta H^o_{rxn}=[(1\times \Delta H^o_f_{(CH_4(g))})]-[(1\times \Delta H^o_f_{(C(s))})+(2\times \Delta H^o_f_{(H_2(g))})]

We are given:

\Delta H^o_f_{(C(s))}=0kJ/mol\\\Delta H^o_f_{(H_2)}=0kJ/mol\\\Delta H^o_f_{CH_4}=-74.9kJ/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\Delta H^o_{rxn}=[(1\times (-74.9))]-[1\times 0)+(2\times 0)]\\\\\Delta H^o_{rxn}=-74.9kJ

Hence, the enthalpy of the reaction for the production of CH_4 is coming out to be -74.9 kJ
