A 2.000 g sample of CoCl2.xH2O is dried in an oven. When the anhydrous salt is removed from the oven, its mass is 1.565 g. What

is the value of x?

The value of X is 2

The total amount of sample taken is 2.00 g

The amount of sample left in the oven after drying is 1.565g

The amount of sample lost (mass of water driven out) = Total sample-Anhydrous salt left in the oven

                                 = 2.00 - 1.565

                                = 0.435 grams

The moles of anhydrous salt present in the hydrate = 1.565g/129.83g/mol = 0.01205

The moles of water present in the hydrate = 0.4350g/18.01g/mol = 0.02415

Therefore the ratio of these two are in 1:2 ratio

The complete chemical reaction is   CoCl2.2H20

Which species acts exclusively as spectator ions in this reaction
adelina 88 [10]

Answer:

K^+ and NO3^-

Explanation:

In a balanced ionic equation, we usually see the species that react to yield the main product in the reaction.

Consider the reaction;

Pb(NO3)2(aq) +2 KI(aq) -------> PbI2(s) + 2KNO3(aq)

The main product in this reaction is PbI2. Hence the balanced ionic equation is;

Pb^2+(aq) + 2I^-(aq) ------> PbI2(s)

Notice that K^+ and NO3^- did not participate in this reaction. All ions that are part of the molecular equation but do not participate in the ionic reaction equation are called spectator ions. Hence K^+ and NO3^- are spectator ions in this reaction as can be seen clearly above.
