Chemistry

Over [174]3 years ago
5 0

generally melting point of mixture is always different from melting point of pure compound

lets say you have a two compounds called A and B

and you have a unknown compound called X which can be either A or B

now your target is to find unknown is really A or B right?

take some amount of X and mix it with A and B separately

out of these two mixtures one will be pure compound (because we initially assume that unknown can be either A or B)

suppose X + A is same melting with A then X is A

X +B will be less than the melting point of A or

suppose X+B is same melting point like B then X is B

X+A will be less than melting point of B

The following reaction shows sodium carbonate reacting with calcium hydroxide.
velikii [3]

Ans: 15.1 grams

Given reaction:

Na2CO3 + Ca(OH)2 → 2NaOH + CaCO3

Mass of Na2CO3 = 20.0 g

Molar mass of Na2CO3 = 105.985 g/mol

# moles of Na2CO3 = 20/105.985 = 0.1887 moles

Based on the reaction stoichiometry: 1 mole of Na2CO3 produces 2 moles of NaOH

# moles of NaOH produced = 0.1887*2 = 0.3774 moles

Molar mass of NaOH = 22.989 + 15.999 + 1.008 = 39.996 g/mol

Mass of NaOH produced = 0.3774*39.996 = 15.09 grams
