A chemical engineer determines the mass percent of iron in an ore sample by converting the Fe to Fe²⁺ in acid and then titrating

the Fe²⁺ with MnO₄⁻. A 1.1081-g sample was dissolved in acid and then titrated with 39.32 mL of 0.03190 M KMnO4. The balanced equation is
8H⁺(aq) + 5Fe²⁺(aq) + MnO⁻₄(aq) → 5Fe³⁺(aq) + Mn²⁺(aq) + 4H₂O(l)
Calculate the mass percent of iron in the ore.

The mass percent of iron in the ore is 31.6%

<h3>Steps</h3>

8H⁺(aq) + 5Fe²⁺(aq) + MnO⁻₄(aq) → 5Fe³⁺(aq) + Mn²⁺(aq) + 4H₂O(l)

V(MnO4^-)=39,32 mL

c(MnO4^-)=0,0319M

n(MnO4^-)=c*V=1,254308 mmol

n(Fe^{2+})=5*n(MnO4^-)=6,27 mmol

Equation

Fe+2H->Fe^+2 + H2

n(Fe)=n(Fe^{2+} )=6,27 mmol

m(Fe)=n*Ar=350,27mg=0,35027g

mass percent(Fe in ore)=m(Fe)/m(ore)*100

=31,61 percent

The mass percent of iron in the ore is 31.6%

<h3>What is the equation for the balance formula?</h3>

An equation for a chemical reaction is said to be balanced if both the reactants and the products have the same number of atoms and total charge for each component of the reaction. In other words, both sides of the reaction have an equal balance of mass and charge.

<h3>An illustration of a balanced equation</h3>

For instance, consider about the reaction: O2 (g) + 2Mg(s) = 2MgO (g) Two magnesium and two oxygen atoms are present in this reaction on both the reactant and product sides.

Describe the three main types of plate boundary interactions:
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

In the explanation

Explanation:

Divergent: When two plates are diverging from each other, meaning that the two plates are moving away from each other. Events that may occur include ridges or rifts.

Convergent: When two plates are moving towards each other.

If a continental plate and an oceanic plate are converging, the oceanic plate would slide underneath the continental plate since it is thinner. This would result in subduction, which means that part of the oceanic plate would hang underneath the continental plate, where magma can melt the hanging part.

If two continental plates are converging, the crash would result in mountains or volcanic activity. Magma could rise and rush from the crack. There would be a bump in these tectonic plates.

Transform: When two plates are sliding past each other. Earthquakes can occur when the plates are sliding. When an oceanic plate is involved, the movement of the plates could cause a tsunami as well. The water above the transform fault could rise, and grow bigger and bigger. The 2011 Japan Tsunami is a good example of this.

Hope this helps!

The compound methylamine, CH3NH2, is a weak base when dissolved in water. Write the Kb expression for the weak base equilibrium
Veronika [31]

Answer:

Kb = [CH₃NH₃⁺] × [OH⁻] / [CH₃NH₂]

Explanation:

According to Brönsted-Lowry acid-base theory:

  • An acid is a substance that donates H⁺.
  • A base is a substance that accepts H⁺.

When methylamine reacts with water, it behaves as a Brönsted-Lowry base, according to the following reaction.

CH₃NH₂(aq) + H₂O(l) ⇄ CH₃NH₃⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq)

The basic equilibrium constant (Kb) is:

Kb = [CH₃NH₃⁺] × [OH⁻] / [CH₃NH₂]
