-3*3+(+1)*12+(+5)+(-2)*4=-9+12+5-8 =0 -the sum of oxidation number in the molecule should be equal zero.

Explanation:

Hello!

Let's solve this!

In a salt, we must take into account that the sum of the oxidation numbers is equal to zero since the molecule is stable.

In this case the molecule is a salt and is (NH4) 3PO4

N = -3

H = + 1 (there are four atoms in total is +4)

(NH4) 3 = (- 3 + 4) * 3 = + 3

P = + 5

O = -2 (since there are 4 atoms in total it is -8)

PO4 = + 5-8 = -3

The total is: -3 + 3 = 0

We verify that the charges give a total of zero, so that our calculation is well done.

Calculate the final Celsius temperature when 634 L at 21 °C is compressed to 307 L.
Illusion [34]

Answer:

- 130.64°C.

Explanation:

  • We can use the general law of ideal gas:<em> PV = nRT.</em>

where, P is the pressure of the gas in atm.

V is the volume of the gas in L.

n is the no. of moles of the gas in mol.

R is the general gas constant,

T is the temperature of the gas in K.

  • If n and P are constant, and have two different values of V and T:

<em>V₁T₂ = V₂T₁</em>

<em></em>

V₁ = 634.0 L, T₁ = 21.0°C + 273 = 294.0 K.

V₂ = 307.0 L, T₂ = ??? K.

<em>∴ T₂ = V₂T₁/V₁ </em>= (307.0 L)(294.0 K)/(634.0 L) = <em>142.36 K.</em>

<em>∴ T₂(°C) = 142.36 K - 273 = - 130.64°C.</em>

For the following reaction, 22.6 grams of nitrogen monoxide are allowed to react with 4.64 grams of hydrogen gas . nitrogen mono
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

- 10.5 g of N₂

- Limiting reagent: NO

- 3.13 g of H₂ remains

Explanation:

First of all we state the reaction: 2NO(g) + 2H₂(g) → 2H₂O(l) + N₂(g)

We need to find out the limiting reactant and the excess reagent

Ratio in the reactants is 2:2. Let's convert the mass to moles:

22.6 g / 30 g/mol = 0.753 moles of NO

4.64 g / 2 g/mol = 2.32 moles of H₂

Certainly the limiting reagent is the NO and the excess reactant is the hydrogen:

- For 0.753 moles of NO, we need 0.753 moles of H₂ (we have 2.32 moles)

- For 2.32 moles of H₂, we need 2.32 moles of NO (and we don't have enough NO, because we only have 0.753 moles)

As the H₂ is the excess reagent, some moles still remains after the reaction is complete → 2.32 mol - 0.753 mol = 1.567 moles

We convert the moles to mass: 1.567 mol . 2g /1mol = 3.13 g of H₂ remains

As the NO is the limiting reagent, we can work with the equation:

We propose this rule of three: 2 moles of NO can produce 1 mol of N₂

Then, 0.753 moles of NO must produce (0.753 . 1) /2 = 0.376 moles of N₂

We convert the moles to mass 0.376 mol . 28 g / 1 mol = 10.5 g

Compare a crystal lattice with a molecule. What does the formula unit Al(OH)3 tell you about the compound aluminum hydroxide?
olasank [31]
Molecules are made up by chemically bonding two or more atoms of the same element or different elements, they don’t have charge, and the atoms are bonded by covalent bonds. <span>Lattices have a three- dimensional ordered arrangement of basic units (that can be an atom, molecule or an ion). Lattices are crystalline structures with these repeated basic units. When ions joined with ionic bonds, they form ionic crystals. The formula unit tells us that aluminium hydroxide has a crystal structure made from molecules. </span>

To what volume should you dilute 134 mL of an 8.00 M CuCl2 solution so that 48.0 mL of the diluted solution contains 5.89 g CuCl
Tom [10]

Answer:

Explanation:

Number of moles of CuCl2 initially present = volume * molar concentration

= 0.134 * 8

= 1.072 mol.

Molar mass of CuCl2 = 63.5 + (2*35.5)

= 134.5 g/mol

Mass of CuCl2 = molar mass * number of moles

= 134.5 * 1.072

= 144.184 g

Mass of CuCl2 in 48 ml = 5.89 g in 48 ml

Volume = 5.89 * (48/144.184)

= 1.96 ml.
