A salt crystal has a mass 0.14mg,How many NaCl formula units does it contain?
klemol [59]
To determine the number of formula units in a sample of a compound you need to divide the number of grams by the formula mass. The formula mass of NaCl is 23 g/mol + 35.5 g/mol = 58.5 g/mol, and the number of grams of the sample is 0.14 mg * 1 g/ 1000 mg = 0.00014 g. Then the answer is 0.00014 g / 58.5 g = 2.30 * 10^ -6, which rounded to two significant figures is 2.4 * 10^ -6. So<span> the answer is 2.4 * 10^-6 or 0.0000024</span>

Determine the molar solubility for pb3(po4)2 in pure water. ksp for pb3(po4)2 is 1.0 x 10-54.
hoa [83]
Dissociation of Pb₃(PO₄)₂ is;
                       Pb₃(PO₄)₂(s)     ⇆      3Pb²⁺(aq)     +     2PO₄³⁻(aq)
initial                                                    -                          -
change               -X                            +3X                     +2X
Equilibrium                                          3X                        2X

Ksp            =       [Pb²⁺(aq)]³ [PO₄³⁻(aq)]²
1.0 x 10⁻⁵⁴ =         (3X)³ (2X)²
1.0 x 10⁻⁵⁴ =        108X⁵
         X      =        6.21 x 10⁻¹² M

Hence the molar solubility of Pb₃(PO₄)₂ is 6.21 x 10⁻¹² M.

How many grams of hydrochloric acid will react completely with a block of gold is 3.2 cm by 3.8 cm by 2.8 cm, if the density of
JulijaS [17]
Answer:
mass of HCl = 243.5426 grams

Explanation:
1- we will get the mass of the reacting gold:
volume of gold = length * width * height
volume of gold = 3.2 * 3.8 * 2.8 = 34.048 cm^3 = 34.048 ml<span>
density = mass / volume
Therefore:
mass = density * volume
mass of gold = </span>19.3 * 34.048 = 657.1264 grams

2- we will get the number of moles of the reacting gold:
number of moles = mass / molar mass
number of moles = 657.1264 / 196.96657 
number of moles = 3.3362 moles

3- we will get the number of moles of the HCl:
First, we will balanced the given equation. The balanced equation will be as follows:
Au + 2HCl ......> AuCl2 + H2
This means that one mole of Au reacts with 2 moles of HCl.
Therefore 3.3362 moles will react with 2*3.3362 = 6.6724 moles of HCL

4- we will get the mass of the HCl:
From the periodic table:
molar mass of H = 1 gram
molar mass of Cl = 35.5 grams
Therefore:
molar mass of HCl = 1 + 35.5 = 36.5 grams/mole
number of moles = mass / molar mass
Therefore:
mass = number of moles * molar mass
mass of HCl = 6.6724 * 36.5
mass of HCl = 243.5426 grams

Hope this helps :)

you just got home from a run on a hot Atlanta afternoon. you grab a 1.00-liter bottle of water and drink three-quarters of it in
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

41.67 mol

Explanation:

1 Litre of water = 1000g

Mole = mass / molar mass

Mass of 1 L of water = 1000 g

Molar mass of water (H2O) :

(H = 1, O = 16)

H2O = (1 * 2) + 16 = (2 + 16) = 18g/mol

Amount of water consumed = (3/4) of 1 litre

= (3/4) * 1000g

= 750g

Therefore mass of water consumed = 750g

Mole = 750g / 18g/mol

Mole of water consumed = 41.6666

= 41.67 mol
