We explored the copper cycle. In the first step, copper was oxidized by nitric acid to make a green solution. Water was then add

ed to the solution and the color changed from green to blue. Is this result supported by the spectrochemical series?

Answer:

Yes, the reaction is supported by spectrochemical series.

Explanation:

When copper oxidizes with concentrated nitric acid, it produces copper ions; and the nitric acid is then reduced to nitrogen dioxide, a very poisonous gas which is brown in color and with an irritating odor.

$ Cu + 4HNO_{3} \rightarrow Cu(NO_{3})_{2} + 2NO_2+2H_2O$

The copper ions ($Cu^{2+} $) product which is initially coordinated to form nitrate ions from nitric acid and thus first gives the solution a green color.

Now when the solution is further diluted with water, the water molecules then displaces the nitrate ions  around the copper ions and causes the solution to change its color to blue. The reaction is -

$ 3Cu + 8HNO_3 \rightarrow 3Cu(NO_3)_2+ 2NO + 4H_2O $

Yes, the results are supported by spectrochemical series.

When using 100ml or 50ml graduated cylinder to what decimal place can your volume be estimated?<br>​
Olegator [25]

Answer:

I know that the 100-mL graduated cylinders are always read to 1 decimal place.

I think for 50 mL graduated cylinders, it lets you measure volumes up to 50.0 mL to the nearest 0.1 or 0.2 mL, depending on your exact cylinder.

A chemist needs to make 250 mL of a 2.50 M aqueous solution of ammonium hydroxide from a 6.00 M ammonium hydroxide solution. How
Furkat [3]

Answer:

250 mL (total solution)  = 104 mL (stock solution)  + 146 mL (water)

Explanation:

Data Given

M1 = 6.00 M

M2 = 2.5 M

V1 = 250 mL

V2 = ?

Solution:

As the chemist needs to prepare 250 mL of solution from 6.00 M ammonium hydroxide solution to prepare a 2.50 M aqueous solution of ammonium hydroxide.

Now

first he have to determine the amount of ammonium hydroxide solution that will be taken from6.00 M ammonium hydroxide solution

For this Purpose we use the following formula

                    M1V1=M2V2

Put values from given data in the formula

                   6 x V1 = 2.5 x 250

Rearrange the equation

                   V1 = 2.5 x 250 /6

                    V1 = 104 mL

So 104 mL is the volume of the solution which we have to take from the 6.00 M ammonium hydroxide solution to prepare 2.5 M  aqueous solution of ammonium hydroxide

But we have to prepare 250 mL of the solution.

so the chemist will take 104 mL from 6.00 M ammonium hydroxide solution and have to add 146 mL water to make 250 mL of new solution.

in this question you have to tell about the amount of water that is 146 mL

250 mL (total solution)  = 104 mL (stock solution)  + 146 mL (water)

Substance X has a fixed volume, and the attraction between its particles is strong. Substance Y has widely spread out particles
DedPeter [7]

Answer: X is a Solid; Y is a Gas

Explanation:

There are three (3) states of matter. They are: Solid, Liquid and Gases.

Substance X and Y, belong to the states of matter.

A Solid is a substance that retains its SIZE and SHAPE without need of a container (as opposed to a liquid or gas).

Thus, it will most likely be concluded that: substance X is a Solid; while Y is a Gas
