- 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_forwardWrite the balanced chemical equation for the complete combustion of heptene, C7H14. In combustion, hcpLcnc reacts with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide and water. What is the mole ratio that would enable you to calculate the number of moles of oxygen needed to react exactly with a given number of moles of heptene? What mole ratios would you use to calculate how many moles of each product form from a given number of moles of heptene?arrow_forwardBalance the following chemical equation, and then answer the question below. :math>CuSO4(aq)+KI(s)CuI(s)+I2(s)+K2SO4(aq) ich reactant is the limiting reactant? Choose the best answer. th CuSO4and Kl are equally limiting because they react in a 1:1 mole ratio. i>CuSO4is the limiting reactant because only 2 moles are available compared with 4 moles of Kl. i>Kl is the limiting reactant because it is present in excess. i>Neither CuSO4 nor Kl is a limiting reactant because 6 total moles are present on the reactant side compared with 5 total moles on the product side. i>The limiting reactant cannot be determined because the starting amounts are not given.arrow_forward

- Outline the steps needed to determine the limiting reactant when 30.0 g of propane, C3H8, is burned with 75.0 g of oxygen. Determine the limiting reactant.arrow_forwardou 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_forwardYou have seven closed containers, each with equal masses of chlorine gas (Cl2) . You add 10.0 g of sodium to the first sample, 20.0 g of sodium to the second sample, and so on (adding 70.0 g of sodium to the seventh sample). Sodium and chlorine react to form sodium chloride according to the equation 2Na(s)+Cl22NaCl(s) After each reaction is complete, you collect and measure the amount of sodium chloride formed. A graph of your results is shown below. Answer the following questions: a. Explain the shape of the graph. b. Calculate the mass of NaCl formed when 20.0 g of sodium is used. c. Calculate the mass of Cl2 in each container. d. Calculate the mass of NaCl formed when 50.0 g of sodium is used. e.
