<span>ideal gas law: PV = nRT so .....</span><span> V = PV/(RT) </span>
<span>
Initial number of moles of Cl, n = 0.943*5.11/(0.08206 × 286) mol = 0.2053 moles.
</span><span>
We know the molar mass of K (potassium) = 39.0 g/mol </span>
<span>sooo....
The Initial number of moles of K = 29.0 g/(39.0 g/mol) = 0.7436 moles</span>

<span>Find the balanced equation for the reaction : </span><span>2K + Cl2 → 2KCl </span>
<span>Mole ratio of K:Cl = 2:1 </span>

<span>So after the reaction, the amount of K needed = (0.2053 mol) × 2 = 0.4106 mol which is less than 0.7436 mol </span>
<span>
This means that K is in excess but Cl completely reacts. </span>

<span> So we know the mole ratio is  Cl:KCl = 1 : 2 
</span>
<span>Number of moles of Cl (completely) reacted = 0.2053 mol which means the n</span><span>umber of moles of KCl formed = (0.2053 mol) × 2 = 0.4106 mol </span>

<span>Molar mass of KCl = (39.0 + 35.5) g/mol = 74.5 g/mol </span>
<span>Mass of KCl formed = 0.4106 mol * 74.5 g/mol = 30.6 g</span>

The table below shows the density of a sample of a mystery liquid you tested in the lab. Can you infer the identity of the subst
Mashutka [201]

Answer:

A. Yes, the substance must be water.

Explanation:

The density of a substance is unique to it. Density is defined the as the amount of substance contained per volume.

One of the ways of identifying a substance is to determine its density. Every matter is known to have their own specific densities. This makes them different from other substances. The density of gold is unique to it and it differs from that of silver.

In fact, water has density of 1.00gcm⁻³. Experimental errors and some little factors must have altered our expected figure. This a case of precision and accuracy in the experiment.

For a molecule of fluorous acid, the atoms are arranged as HOFO. (Note: In this oxyacid, the placement of fluorine is an excepti
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

0,0,0,0

Explanation:

The formal charge formula:

Formal charge= Valence electrons - lone pair electrons - 0.5 shared electrons

So:

Hydrogen: 1 elec. of valence and shares two electrons with the O

Formal charge= 1 - 0 - 0.5*2=0

Oxygen: 6 elec. of valence, 2 lone pairs and shares two electrons with the H and two with the F

Formal charge= 6 - 4 - 0.5*4=0

Fluorine: 7 elec. of valence, 6 lone pairs and shares two electrons with the O

Formal charge= 7 - 6 - 0.5*2=0

Oxygen: 6 elec. of valence, 3 lone pairs

Formal charge= 6 - 6 - 0.5*0=0

Note: the dative bond between F and the second O doesn't count as shared electrons.

Bob is investigating whether the density of water changes with temperature. Which of the following variables should he change in
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

temperature of the water

Explanation:

Density is defied as mass divided by the volume. To investigate how the density of water change with temperature, Bob have the change the temperature and read the volume and mass of the investigated sample.

Even if there is a different salt content between booted water or tap water and have an influence on the density (compared with pure water), this difference is not so big so the change in density with temperature can be determined. Considering that the experiment do not require extreme accuracy,  any type of water may be used (bottled water of tap water).
