1) When 2.38g of magnesium is added to 25.0cm of 2.27 M hydrochloric acid, hydrogen gas is released. a) Determine the limiting reactant
b) Calculate the mass of hydrogen gas produced.
c) Calculate the mass of excess reactant remained at the end of reaction.
d) What is the percentage yield if 0.044g of hydrogen gas is obtained from the experiment?

a. HCl.

b. 0.057 g.

c. 1.69 g.

d. 77 %.

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the reaction between magnesium and hydrochloric acid is:

Whereas there is 1:2 mole ratio between them.

a) Here, we can identify the limiting reactant as that yielded the fewest moles of hydrogen gas product via the 1:1 and 2:1 mole ratios:

Thus, since hydrochloric yields fewer moles of hydrogen than magnesium, we realize it is the limiting reactant.

b) Here, we use the molar mass of gaseous hydrogen (2.02 g/mol) to compute the mass:

c) Here, we compute the mass of magnesium associated with the yielded 0.0248 moles of hydrogen:

Thus, the mass of excess magnesium turns out:

d) Finally, we compute the percent yield, considering 0.044 g is the actual yield and 0.057 g the theoretical yield:

how to make a simple air condition

the potential energy of the reactants is 200j.

from the energy diagram, the energy of the product formed is 350j; this means that, this reaction is an endothermic reaction, because it absorbs energy from its environment.
