Chemistry
1 answer:
salantis [7]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

The answer to your question is:

Explanation:

a)

Metals: are shiny, malleable and ductile, they can conduct electricity and heat,  form cations in aqueous solutions.

Nonmetals: non-lustrous, brittle, not good conductors of heat and electricity, form anions in aqueous solutions.

b)

Metals are located in the left side of the periodic table

Nonmetals are located in the right side of the periodic table.

c)

Metal are use to make pans because they are good conductors of heat and also are malleable and ductile.

Nonmetals are used to make sleeping bags and coolers because they do not conduct heat so they can isolate matter.

For the following reactions, write a balanced equation using half-reactions and calculate the voltage to be expected.
Iteru [2.4K]

a) 2Na(s) +2H_2O(I)→ 2Na^+(aq) + OH^-(aq)+ H_2(g)

b) 2Ag (s) +2H^(aq) → 2 Ag^+ (aq) +H_2(g)

<h3>What are half-reactions?</h3>

The half-reaction method is a way to balance redox reactions. It involves breaking the overall equation down into an oxidation part and a reduction part.

a)

2Na(s) +2H_2O(I)→ 2Na^+(aq) + OH^-(aq)+ H_2(g)

E^0 cell = E^0 (reduction)  - E^0 (oxidation)

= E^0(\frac{H_2O}{H_2}, OH^-) -E^0(Na^+/Na)

= -0.83 - (-2.71) =1.88V

b)

2Ag (s) +2H^(aq) → 2 Ag^+ (aq) +H_2(g)

E^0cell= E^0(H^+/H_2) -E^0(Ag^+/Ag)

E^0cell=-0. - (0.8) =-0.8V

How many grams of CaCl2 are in 250 mL of 2.0 M CaCl2?
Tom [10]
The answer is:  " 56 g CaCl₂ " .
__________________________________________________________

Explanation:
__________________________________________________________
2.0 M CaCl₂  = 2.0 mol CaCl₂ / L  ; 

Since: "M" = "Molarity" (measurement of concentration); 

                  = moles of solute per L {"Liter"} of solution.
__________________________________________________________
Note the exact conversion:  1000 mL = 1 L . 

Given: 250 mL ;   

250 mL = ?  L  ?  ;  


250 mL * (1 L / 1000 L) =  (250/1000) L = 0.25 L . 
___________________________________________________________
 
(2.0 mol CaCl₂ / L ) * (0.25L) = (2.0) * (0.25) mol  = 0.50 mol CaCl₂ ;

We have: 0.50 mol CaCl₂ ;  Convert to "g" (grams):

→ 0.50 mol CaCl₂  .
___________________________________________________________
1 mol CaCl₂ = ? g ?

From the Periodic Table of Elements:

1 mol Ca = 40.08 g

1 mol Cl  =  <span>35.45 g .
</span>
There are 2 atoms of Cl in " CaCl₂ " ;  

→ Note the subscript, "2", in the " Cl₂ " ; 
__________________________________________________________
So, to calculate the molar mass of "CaCl₂" :

40.08 g  +  2(35.45 g) = 

40.08 g  +  70.90 g = 110.98 g ;  round to 4 significant figures; 

                                 → round to 111 g/mol .
__________________________________________________________
So:

→  0.50 mol CaCl₂  = ? g CaCl₂  ? ; 

→  0.50 mol CaCl₂ * (111 g CaCl₂ / mol CaCl₂) ;

                                             = (0.50) * (111 g) CaCl₂ ;

                                             =  55.5 g CaCl₂  ;

                                                → round to 2 significant figures; 

                                                →  56 g CaCl₂ .
___________________________________________________________
The answer is:  " 56 g CaCl₂ " .
