A chemist prepares a solution of magnesium chloride MgCl2 by measuring out 49.mg of MgCl2 into a 100.mL volumetric flask and fil

Flura [38]

Answer: Molarity of $Cl^-$ anions in the chemist's solution is 0.0104 M

Explanation:

Molarity : It is defined as the number of moles of solute present per liter of the solution.

Formula used :

$Molarity=\frac{n\times 1000}{V_s}$

where,

n= moles of solute

$Moles=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}=\frac{0.049g}{95g/mol}=5.2\times 10^{-4}moles$

$V_s$ = volume of solution in ml = 100 ml

Now put all the given values in the formula of molarity, we get

$Molarity=\frac{5.2\times 10^{-4}moles\times 1000}{100ml}=5.2\times 10^{-3}mole/L$

Therefore, the molarity of solution will be $5.2\times 10^{-3}mole/L$

$MgCl_2\rightarrow Mg^{2+}+2Cl^-$

As 1 mole of $MgCl_2$ gives 2 moles of $Cl^-$

Thus $5.2\times 10^{-3}$ moles of $MgCl_2$ gives = $\frac{2}{1}\times 5.2\times 10^{-3}=0.0104$

Thus the molarity of $Cl^-$ anions in the chemist's solution is 0.0104 M

A chemical equation is shown: C2H4 + O2 → CO2 + H2O According to the law of conservation of mass, how many atoms of oxygen exist

astraxan [27]

Answer:

6 oxygens on the product side

Explanation:

1) balance the equation:

C2H4 + 3O2 → 2CO2 + 2H2O

2) calculate the number of oxygens on the product side

2CO2=4

2H2O=2

Mention the oxidation state of chromium in potassium dichromate and chromium sulphate

dedylja [7]

Answer:

Let, X be the oxidation state of Cr in K

2(+1)+2X+7(−2)=0

2+2X−14=0

2X=12

X=+6

Hence, the oxidation state of Cr in K

is +6.
