If the compound contains 35.06 % cl by mass, what is the identity of the metal?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Setler [38]3 years ago
4 0

Answer is: identity of the metal is gold (Au).

ω(Cl) = 35.06% ÷ 100%.

ω(Cl) = 0.3506; mass percentage of chlorine.

If we take 100 grams of the compound:

m(Cl) = ω(Cl) · m(compound).

ω(Cl) = 0.3506 · 100 g.

ω(Cl) = 35.06 g.

n(Cl) = m(Cl) ÷ M(Cl).

n(Cl) = 35.06 g ÷ 35.45 g/mol.

n(Cl) = 0.99 mol; amount of substance.

In molecule MCl₃: n(M) : n(Cl) = 1 : 3.

n(M) = 0.33 mol; amount of unknown metal.

M(M) = m(M) ÷ n(M).

M(M) = (100 g - 35.06 g) ÷ 0.33 mol.

M(M) = 196.8 g/mol; molar mass of the gold.

A silver bar has a mass of 368g. What is the volume in cm³ of the bar? The density of silver is 19.5g/cm³.
BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

<h2>18.87 cm³</h2>

Explanation:

The volume of a substance when given the density and mass can be found by using the formula

volume =  \frac{mass}{density} \\

From the question we have

volume =  \frac{368}{19.5}   \\  = 18.871794..

We have the final answer as

<h3>18.87 cm³</h3>

Hope this helps you

Student A performed gravimetric analysis for sulfate in her unknown using the same procedures we did . Results of her three tria
Andre45 [30]

Let us first calculate the accepted value of sulfate using the molar mass of sodium sulfate.

The molar mass of sodium sulfate is 2 Na + S + 4 O = 2 (22.99) + 32.07 + 4 (16)

Molar mass of Sodium sulfate = 142.05

Molar mass of sulfate = S + 4 (O) = 32.07 + 4 (16) = 96.07

% of sulfate in sodium sulfate = (Molar mass of SO4 / Molar mass of Na2SO4) x 100

% of sulfate = (96.07/142.05) x 100

% of sulfate = 67.6%

Theoretical value for % Sulfate is 67.6%

Percent error is calculated as  

Percent Error = \left | \frac{Experimental - Theoretical}{Theoretical} \right |

Let us calculate mean for student A.

Mean for student A = (68.6 + 66.2 + 67.1) / 3 = 201.9/3 = 67.3 %

% error for student A = \left | \frac{67.3 - 67.6}{67.6} \right |

% error for student A = 0.44%

Mean for student B = (66.7 +66.6 + 66.5)/3 = 199.8 /3 = 66.6 %

% error for student B = \left | \frac{66.6 - 67.6}{67.6} \right |  

% error for student B = 1.48%

Accuracy is the closeness of experimental values to the true value. This is defined in terms of absolute and percent errors.

Since percent error for student A is lower, we can say that student A was more accurate.

The precision of the data depends on the closeness of experimental values to each other. We can see that experimental values for student B were close to each other.

Therefore we can say that student B was more precise.
