Answer: Pt(Cl)2(NH3)2

Explanation:

In the formation of the complex, the oxidation number of platinum is plus two (+2) and two chloride ions cancel it out by their oxidation number of -1 each. Hence the complex has an overall charge of zero. It is thus neutral with no charge attached to its formula.

Suppose you need to make the following two precipitates (by two different precipitation reactions): MgCO3 and Ca3(PO4)2. For eac
Setler [38]

Answer:

For the first reaction the reagents are: MgCl2 and Na2CO3

For the second reaction the reagents are: Na2HPO4 and CaCl2

Explanation:

Precipitation reactions lie in the production of a compound that is not soluble, which is called a precipitate, this precipitate is produced when two different solutions are combined, each of which will contribute an ion for the formation of the precipitate. In the first reaction you have:

MgCl2 + Na2CO3 = MgCO3 + 2 NaCl

Type of reaction: double displacement

The second reaction is as follows:

4Na2HPO4 + 3CaCl2 → Ca3 (PO4) 2 + 2NaH2PO4 + 6NaCl

It is the reaction of sodium hydrochlorophosphate and calcium chloride

A compound that is composed of only carbon and hydrogen contains 80.0% c and 20.0% h by mass. What is the empirical formula of t
gladu [14]

<u>Solution</u> : Emperical Formula =  CH_{3}

Emperical Formula - A formula that gives the simplest whole number ratio of atom in a compound.

In the question percentages are given then assume that the total mass is 100grams so that the mass of each element is equal to the percentage given.

Given : 80.0g Carbon

            20.0g Hydrogen

First convert the given masses into moles.

80.0g\text{ C} \times \frac{1 g/mole \text{ C}}{12.0 g/mole \text{ C}}= 6.66\text{mole of C}

20.0g\text{ H} \times \frac{1 g/mole \text{ H}}{1 g/mole \text{ H}}= 20.0\text{mole of H}

Value of each mole divided by the smallest number of moles and then round off.

Moles ratio of the element are

\frac{6.66}{6.66}\text{mole of C}= 1

\frac{20.0}{6.66}\text{mole of C}= 3

This is the mole ratio of the elements and is repersented by the subscript in the emperical formula.

Emperical Formula =  CH_{3}

The reaction represented by this graph is an exothermic reaction. According to the graph, which statement is true? Reactants hav
Sunny_sXe [5.5K]

Answer:

Reactants have more energy than products

Explanation:

Generally, in an exothermic reaction heat is released. In other words, energy is released. So you start with reactants which have a set amount of stored chemical energy, and you lose some in the reaction. Since energy is 'leaving', the stored chemical energy in the products is less than what we started with in the reactants. When given a graph, you can tell this is true because going from left to right, the line representing the stored chemical energy will start at a higher level than where it ends.
