Explanation:

Chemical properties are defined as the properties which tend to show change in chemical composition of a substance.

For example, toxicity, reactivity, combustion etc are all chemical properties.

It is known that elements which belong to same period show similar chemical properties.

This is because elements that lie in the same group have same number of valence electrons. Hence, they tend to show same type of reactivity which makes them exhibit similar chemical properties.

Thus, we can conclude that elements in group via (group 16) have similar properties because they all have 6 valence electrons.

If 34.7 g of AgNO₃ react with 28.6 g of H₂SO₄ according to this UNBALANCED equation below, how many grams of Ag₂SO₄ could be for

Luba_88 [7]

The number of grams of Ag2SO4 that could be formed is 31.8 grams

<u><em> calculation</em></u>

Balanced equation is as below

2 AgNO3 (aq) + H2SO4(aq) → Ag2SO4 (s) +2 HNO3 (aq)

Find the moles of each reactant by use of mole= mass/molar mass formula

that is moles of AgNO3= 34.7 g / 169.87 g/mol= 0.204 moles

moles of H2SO4 = 28.6 g/98 g/mol =0.292 moles

use the mole ratio to determine the moles of Ag2SO4

that is;

the mole ratio of AgNo3 : Ag2SO4 is 2:1 therefore the moles of Ag2SO4= 0.204 x1/2=0.102 moles

The moles ratio of H2SO4 : Ag2SO4 is 1:1 therefore the moles of Ag2SO4 = 0.292 moles

AgNO3 is the limiting reagent therefore the moles of Ag2SO4 = 0.102 moles

<h3> finally find the mass of Ag2SO4 by use of mass=mole x molar mass formula</h3>

that is 0.102 moles x 311.8 g/mol= 31.8 grams
