I first converted the given grams of the reactants into moles, and then divided the moles by the coefficients in front of each of the reactant. The result with the smallest value will be the limiting reactant, and the value of CuO was the smallest, so it's the limiting reactant.

After figuring out which reactant is the limiting one, I took their given grams and converted it into moles, the divided it by the ratio of N2 to CuO (it's in the equation) to obtain the moles of N2, and then multiply it with the molar mass of N2 to get its mass in grams.

A small cube of iron and a large flat sheet of iron contain the same volume. Which one will completely rust first? Explain why.
Hunter-Best [27]

The flat sheet will completely rust before the iron cube. Since they both have the same volume, the flat sheet has more surface area than the small cube. This means more particles are exposed on the flat sheet that can react in a chemical reaction.

You may normally expect a _____ reaction if a _____ activation energy is required.
Strike441 [17]

Answer:

  • You may normally expect a <em>slow</em> reaction if a <em>high</em> activation energy is required.
  • Or, You may normally expect a <em>fast</em> reaction if a <em>low</em> activation energy is required.

Explanation:

  • To answer this question, we should define firstly the term of activation energy.
  • The activation energy is the minimum energy must the reacting molecules have to initiate the chemical reaction.
  • Also, we can define it as The energy barrier that the molecules must posses an amount of energy equal or more than the value of this barrier.
  • So, as the activation energy be of low value, the possibility that the reacting molecules can have this amount of energy to initiate and proceed the reaction increases and the reaction rate also increases.
  • Additionally, as the activation energy be of high value, the possibility that the reacting molecules can have this amount of energy to initiate and proceed the reaction decreases and the reaction rate also decreases.

Thus, we can answer this question as:

  1. You may normally expect a <em>slow</em> reaction if a <em>high</em> activation energy is required.
  2. You may normally expect a <em>fast</em> reaction if a <em>low</em> activation energy is required.

____ [38]

Answer:

m_{Mg}=30.8mgMg

Explanation:

Hello,

Based on the given chemical reaction, as 31.2 mL of hydrogen are yielded, one computes its moles via the ideal gas equation under the stated conditions as shown below:

n_{H_2}=\frac{PV}{RT}=\frac{754torr*\frac{1atm}{760torr}*0.0312L}{0.082 \frac{atm*L}{mol*K}*298.15K}=1.27x10^{-3}molH_2

Now, since the relationship between hydrogen and magnesium is 1 to 1, one computes its milligrams by following the shown below proportional factor development:

m_{Mg}=1.27x10^{-3}molH_2*\frac{1molMg}{1molH_2}*\frac{24.305gMg}{1molMg}*\frac{1000mgMg}{1gMg}\\m_{Mg}=30.8mgMg

Best regards.

Sodium reacts with chlorine gas according to the following reaction: 2Na(s)+Cl2(g)→2NaCl(s) What volume of Cl2 gas, measured at
asambeis [7]

Answer:6.719Litres of Cl2 gas.

Explanation:According to eqn of rxn

2Na +Cl2=2NaCl

P=689torr=689/760=0.91atm

T=39°C+273=312K

according to stoichiometry of the reaction,1Moles of Cl2 gives 2moles of NaCl

But 28g of NaCl was given,we have to convert this to moles by using the relation, n=mass/MW

MW of NaCl=23+35.5=58.5g/mol

n=28g(mass given of NaCl)/58.5

n=0.479moles of NaCl

Going back to the reaction,

if 1moles of Cl2 produces 2moles of NaCl

x moles of Cl2 will give 0.479moles of NaCl.

x=0.479*1/2

x=0.239moles of Cl2.

To find the volume, we use ideal ggas eqn,PV=nRT

V=nRT/P

V=0.239*0.082*312/0.91

V=6.719Litres

Assuming equal concentrations and complete dissociation, rank these aqueous solutions by their freezing points. NH4l, CoBr3, Na2
seraphim [82]
Answer:

NaI > Na2SO4 > Co Br3

meaning that NaI has the highest freezing point, and Co Br3 has the lowest freezing point.

Explanation:

The freezing point depression is a colligative property.

That means that it depends on the number of solute particles dissolved.

The formula to calculate the freezing point depression of a solution of a non volatile solute is:

ΔTf = i * Kf * m

Where kf is a constant, m is the molality and i is the van't Hoff factor.

Molality, which is number of moles per kg of solvent, counts for the number of moles dissolved and the van't Hoff factor multipllies according for molecules that dissociate.

The higher the number of molecules that dissociate, the higher the van't Hoff, the greater the freezing point depression and the lower the freezing point.

As the question states that you assume equal concentrations (molality) and complete dissociation you just must find the number of ions generated by each solute, in this way:

NH4 I → NH4(+) + I(-) => 2 ions

Co Br3 → Co(+) + 3 Br(-) => 4 ions

Na2SO4 → 2Na(+) + SO4(2-) => 3 ions.

So, Co Br3 is the solute that generate more particles and that solution will exhibit the lowest freezing point among the options given, Na2SO4 is next and the NaI is the third. Ordering the freezing point from higher to lower the rank is NaI > Na2SO4 > CoBr3, which is the answer given.
