If 15.60g of a hydrated compound is heated in an oven for several hours, its mass drops to 8.63g. Assuming that the reduction in

mass is due to the loss of water what is the percentage of water in the original hydrate?

In order to calculate the percent of water in the hydrate, we need to know the amount of water that is lost after heating. We simply subtract the initial amount and the final amount. We do as follows:

mass of water = 15.60 g - 8.63 g = 6.97 g

Percent water = 6.97 / 15.60 x 100 = 44.68%

These substances are all ____. H2O2 Li NaCl O2
Bogdan [553]

Answer: pure substances.


Explanation:


The given substances are:

  • H₂O₂
  • Li
  • NaCl
  • O₂

All what surrounds us, which has mass and occupies spaces, is matter. There are two kind of matter: pure substances and mixtures.


Pure substances have a uniform and constant composition. On the other hand, mixtures are combinations of two or more pure substances in  any arbitratry ratio.


Pure substances may be elements or compounds. The elements are the substances conmposed by one only kind of atom. In the list of substances given, Li and O₂ are elements: all the atoms in Li are lithium, and all the atoms in O₂ are oxygen atoms.


Compounds are the chemical combination of two or more different kind of atoms. In the given list H₂O₂ and NaCl are compounds. As you see, H₂O₂ contains atoms of hydrogen and oxygen, chemically bonded, in a fixed ratio (2 atoms of hydrogen by 2 atoms of oxygen). And NaCl has atoms of Na (sodium) and Cl (chlorine), chemicaly bonded, in a fixed ratio (1:1).


There are only 118 known elements and you can find them in any modern periodic table. Therer are virtually infinitely many compounds since many different combinations of the elements can be attained.


Elements and compounds have in common that they are classified as pure substances.

In a titration of 0.5 M HCl and an unknown concentration NaOH, 25.0 ml of NaOH was required to completely neutralize 25.0 ml of
baherus [9]
When an acid is neutralized by a base, that means moles of H+ = moles of OH-

moles of H+ = 0.5 M * 0.025 L HCl = 0.0125 moles H+

moles of OH- should be equal to 0.0125 moles, so
0.0125 moles = (x) * 0.025 L NaOH

x is the concentration of NaOH, which we want to find.

x = 0.5 M

The correct answer is C) 0.5 M.

Acetic acid has a Kb of 2.93 °C/m and a normal boiling point of 118.1 °C. What would be the boiling point of a solution made by
alexdok [17]

Boiling point elevation is given as:

ΔTb=iKbm

Where,

ΔTb=elevation in the boiling point

that is given by expression:

ΔTb=Tb (solution) - Tb (pure solvent)

Here Tb (pure solvent)=118.1 °C

i for CaCO3= 2

Kb=2.93 °C/m

m=Molality of CaCO₃:

Molality of CaCO₃=Number of moles of CaCO₃/ Mass of solvent (Kg)

=(Given Mass of CaCO3/Molar mass of CaCO₃)/ Mass of solvent (Kg)

=(100.0÷100 g/mol)/0.4

= 2.5 m

So now putting value of m, i and Kb in the boiling point elevation equation we get:

ΔTb=iKbm

=2×2.93×2.5

=14.65 °C

boiling point of a solution can be calculated:

ΔTb=Tb (solution) - Tb (pure solvent)

14.65=Tb (solution)-118.1

Tb (solution)=118.1+14.65

=132.75

If the reactants contain one chlorine molecule, do you know how many chlorine atoms will be in the product? Include conversion o
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

The number of Chlorine atoms in the product is 2.

Explanation:

The law of conservation of mass states that matter can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction.

The reactants contain one chlorine molecule(Cl_{2}) which has two chlorine atoms.

Then, according to law of conservation of matter, the product must contain two chlorine atoms.
