Basic Chemistry
- ou know that chemical A reacts with chemical B. You react 10.0 g A with 10.0 g B. What information do you need to know to determine the amount of product that will be produced? Explain.arrow_forward4.8 In an experiment carried out at very low pressure, 13x1015 molecules of H2 are reacted with acetylene, C2H2, to form ethane, C2H6, on the surface of a catalyst. Write a balanced chemical equation for this reaction. How many molecules of acetylene are consumed?arrow_forwardAmmonia can be formed by a direct reaction of nitrogen and hydrogen. N2(g) + 3 H2(g) 2 NH3(g) A tiny portion of the starting mixture is represented by the diagram, where the blue circles represent N and the white circles represent H. Which of these represents the product mixture? For the reaction of the given sample, which of these statements is true? (a) N2 is the limiting reactant. (b) H2 is the limiting reactant. (c) NH, is the limiting reactant. (d) No reactant is limiting: they are present in the correct stoichiometric ratio.arrow_forward
- 4.72 The picture shown depicts the species present at the start of a combustion reaction between methane, CH4 and oxygen, O2 (a) What is the limiting reactant? (b) Draw the resulting state after this set of reactants has reacted as far as possible.arrow_forwardConsider the balanced chemical equation :math>A+5B3C+4D en equal masses of A and B are reacted, which is limiting, A or B? Justify your choice. If the molar mass of A is greater than the molar mass of B, then A must be limiting. If the molar mass of A is less than the molar mass of B, then A must be limiting. If the molar mass of A is greater than the molar mass of B, then B must be limiting. If the molar mass of A is less than the molar mass of B, then B must be limiting.arrow_forward4.71 The particulate scale drawing shown depict the products of a reaction between N2 and O2 molecules. (a) Draw a similar representation for the reactants that must have been present before the reaction took place. (b) Write a balanced chemical equation for the reaction, using the smallest possible whole number coefficients. (c) Identify the limiting reactant, and explain how the pictures allow you to do so.arrow_forward
- Methanol, CH3OH, can be prepared from carbon monoxide and hydrogen. CO(g) + 2 H2(g) CH3OH(l) What mass of hydrogen is required to produce 1.0 L of CH3OH (d = 0.791 g/mL) if this reaction has a 74% yield under certain conditions?arrow_forward4.70 The particulate scale drawing shown depicts the products of a reaction between H2 and O2 molecules. (a) Draw a similar representation for the reactants that must have been present before the reaction took place. (b) Write a balanced chemical equation for the reaction, using the smallest possible whole number coefficients. (c) identify the limiting reactant, and explain how the pictures allow you to do so.arrow_forwardSmall quantities of oxygen gas can be generated in the laboratory by the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide. The unbalanced equation for the reaction is H2O2(uz/)-? H2O(/) + O2(g) Calculate the mass of oxygen produced when 10.00 g of hydrogen peroxide decomposes.arrow_forward
- 3.90 Pyrrole has the molecular formula C4H5N. When pyrrole reacts with O2, the products are CO2, H2O, and N2. Write a balanced equation for this reaction.arrow_forward4.12 In petroleum refining, hydrocarbons are often manipulated by reacting them with H2(g). If hexene, C6H12, is reacted with hydrogen to form hexane, C6H14, how many moles of hydrogen are needed to react with 453 moles of hexene?arrow_forward3.81 The particulate scale drawing shown depicts the products of a reaction between H2 and O2 molecules. (a) Draw a similar representation for the reactants that must have been present before the reaction took place. (b) Write a balanced chemical equation for the reaction, using the smallest possible whole number coefficients.arrow_forward
