1) A potassium carbonate hydrate has a formula K2CO3.XH2O. 10g of the hydrate leave 7.83g of anhydrous salt upon heating. Deduce

the formula of the hydrate.
2) Samples of carbon of masses 3.62g , 5.91g , and 7.07g undergo combustion in excess air. The masses of carbon dioxide (the unique product of the combustion in each case) obtained are respectively 13.26g, 21.66g, and 25.91g. Does carbon dioxide have a fixed composition? Determine it!

The formula of the hydrated potassium carbonate salt is K₂CO₃.2H₂O

Based on the calculated mass ratio of carbon and oxygen in carbon dioxide, carbon has a fixed composition.

<h3>What are hydrated compounds?</h3>

Hydrated compounds are compounds that contain one or more molecules of water physically combined with a molecule of the compound.

The formula of the hydrated potassium carbonate salt is determined as follows:

Mass of the hydrated sample = 10.0 g

Mass of anhydrous salt = 7.83

mass of water = 10 - 7.83

mass of water = 2.17 g

Molar mass of water = 18.0 g

Molar mass of anhydrous potassium carbonate = 138 g

moles of anhydrous potassium carbonate in sample = 7.83/138

moles of anhydrous potassium carbonate = 0.056 moles

moles of water in the hydrated salt = 2.17/18

moles of water in the hydrated salt = 0.12

Mole ratio of water to anhydrous salt = 0.12/0.056

Mole ratio of water to anhydrous salt = 1 : 2

Formula of hydrated salt = K₂CO₃.2H₂O

The mass ratio of carbon to oxygen in the compounds is given below:

Sample 1:

Mass ratio = 3.62 / (13.26 - 3.62)

Mass ratio = 0.38 : 1

Sample 2:

Mass ratio = 5.91 / (21.66 - 5.91)

Mass ratio = 0.38 : 1

Sample 3:

Mass ratio = 7.07 / (25.91 - 7.07)

Mass ratio = 0.38 : 1

Carbon has a fixed composition.

The client's lab values are sodium 166 mEq/L, potassium 5.0 mEq/L, chloride 115 mEq/L, and bicarbonate 35 mEq/L. What condition
Fantom [35]

Answer:

The anion value of 21mEq/L suggest the client will have metabolic acidosis

Explanation:

Anion gap is the interval or difference between measured cations (Sodium and Potassium) with the sum of measured anions (chloride and bicarbonate)

Using the above mentioned data

(166 + 5) - (115 + 35)  =  21mEq/L

Therefore the Anion gap = 21mEq/L

A chemist prepares a solution of copper(l) sulfate (CuSo4) by measuring out 11.7 g of copper(II) sulfate into a 350. mL volumetr
Ksju [112]

Answer:

0.209 mol/L

Explanation:

Given data

  • Mass of copper(lI) sulfate (solute): 11.7 g
  • Volume of solution: 350 mL = 0.350 L

The molar mass of copper(Il) sulfate is 159.61 g/mol. The moles corresponding to 11.7 grams are:

11.7 g × (1 mol/159.61 g) = 0.0733 mol

The molarity of copper(Il) sulfate is:

M = moles of solute / liters of solution

M = 0.0733 mol / 0.350 L

M = 0.209 mol/L
