Answer: $2KNO_3\rightarrow 2KNO_2+O_2$

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. Thus the mass of products has to be equal to the mass of reactants. The number of atoms of each element has to be same on reactant and product side. Thus chemical equations are balanced.

The balanced equation will be:

$2KNO_3\rightarrow 2KNO_2+O_2$

The atoms on reactant and product side must be same.

Name two events involving electrons that can result in the formation of chemical bonds between atoms.

Alona [7]

Explanation:

Two events involving electrons are gain and loss of electrons.

When there is gain or loss of electrons between two atoms then it results in the formation of ionic bond.

Whereas when there is sharing of electrons between two atoms then it results in the formation of covalent bond.

Therefore, the chemical bonds formed can be ionic or covalent bonds.

Find [H+] of a 0.056 M hydrofluoric acid solution. Ka = 1.45 x 10-7

brilliants [131]

Answer: $[H^+]$ of 0.056 M HF solution is $8.96\times 10^{-5}$

Explanation:

$HF\rightarrow H^+F^-$

cM 0 0

$c-c\alpha$ $c\alpha$ $c\alpha$

So dissociation constant will be:

$K_a=\frac{(c\alpha)^{2}}{c-c\alpha}$

Give c= 0.056 M and $\alpha$ = ?

$K_a=1.45\times 10^{-7}$

Putting in the values we get:

$1.45\times 10^{-7}=\frac{(0.056\times \alpha)^2}{(0.056-0.056\times \alpha)}$

$(\alpha)=0.0016$

$[H^+]=c\times \alpha$

$[H^+]=0.056\times 0.0016=8.96\times 10^{-5}$

Thus $[H^+]$ of 0.056 M HF solution is $8.96\times 10^{-5}$

How many moles of sodium carbonate are contained by 57.3g of sodium carbonate

Lady_Fox [76]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 0.541 \ mol \ Na_2CO_3}}$

Explanation:

We are asked to find how many moles of sodium carbonate are in 57.3 grams of the substance.

Carbonate is CO₃ and has an oxidation number of -2. Sodium is Na and has an oxidation number of +1. There must be 2 moles of sodium so the charge of the sodium balances the charge of the carbonate. The formula is Na₂CO₃.

We will convert grams to moles using the molar mass or the mass of 1 mole of a substance. They are found on the Periodic Table as the atomic masses, but the units are grams per mole instead of atomic mass units. Look up the molar masses of the individual elements.

Na: 22.9897693 g/mol
C: 12.011 g/mol
O: 15.999 g/mol

Remember the formula contains subscripts. There are multiple moles of some elements in 1 mole of the compound. We multiply the element's molar mass by the subscript after it, then add everything together.

Na₂ = 22.9897693 * 2= 45.9795386 g/mol
O₃ = 15.999 * 3= 47.997 g/mol
Na₂CO₃= 45.9795386 + 12.011 + 47.997 =105.9875386 g/mol

We will convert using dimensional analysis. Set up a ratio using the molar mass.

$\frac {105.9875386 \ g \ Na_2CO_3}{1 \ mol \ Na_2CO_3}$

We are converting 57.3 grams to moles, so we multiply by this value.

$57.3 \ g \ Na_2CO_3} *\frac {105.9875386 \ g \ Na_2CO_3}{1 \ mol \ Na_2CO_3}$

Flip the ratio so the units of grams of sodium carbonate cancel.

$57.3 \ g \ Na_2CO_3} *\frac {1 \ mol \ Na_2CO_3}{105.9875386 \ g \ Na_2CO_3}$

$57.3 } *\frac {1 \ mol \ Na_2CO_3}{105.9875386 }$

$\frac {57.3 }{105.9875386 } \ mol \ Na_2CO_3$

$0.5406295944 \ mol \ Na_2CO_3$

The original measurement of moles has 3 significant figures, so our answer must have the same. For the number we found that is the thousandth place. The 6 in the ten-thousandth place to the right tells us to round the 0 up to a 1.

$0.541 \ mol \ Na_2CO_3$

There are approximately <u>0.541 moles of sodium carbonate</u> in 57.3 grams.
