How does sulfur’s number of valence electrons influence its behavior toward other atoms?

1 answer:

3 0

Generally, Sulfur will take on 2 electrons and make a -2 ion, unless it is in the presence of a highly electronegative atom like Oxygen then it can form a +6 ion.

Is It Deadly To Mix Bleach, Rubbing Alcohol, And/or Hydrogen Peroxide?

Oduvanchick [21]

Mixing bleach with rubbing alcohol and/or hydrogen peroxide can run the risk of producing chlorine gas. This is a gas that if inhaled in excess, or at all, is extremely dangerous, harmful or even fatal. Keeping this in mind, it is therefore not recommended that you mix these substances together. The label of your rubbing alcohol will recommend any substances it can or cannot be mixed with.

Which one of the following statements is not true concerning 2.00 L of a 0.100 M solution of Ca3(PO4)2?

Len [333]

Answer: The correct answer is Option B.

Explanation:

To calculate the molarity of solution, we use the equation:

$\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}$ .......(1)

For A:

Molarity of calcium phosphate solution = 0.100 M

Volume of solution = 2.00 L

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.100M=\frac{\text{Moles of }Ca_3(PO_4)_2}{2.00}\\\\\text{Moles of }Ca_3(PO_4)_2=(0.100mol/L\times 2.00L)=0.200mol$

Moles of calcium phosphate = 0.200 moles

For B:

1 mole of calcium phosphate contains 3 moles of calcium atoms, 2 moles of phosphate atoms and 8 moles of oxygen atoms.

So, 0.200 moles of calcium phosphate will contain = $(8\times 0.200)=1.6$ moles of oxygen atoms.

Moles of oxygen atoms = 1.6 moles

For C:

Molarity of calcium phosphate solution = 0.100 M

Volume of solution = 1.00 L

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.100M=\frac{\text{Moles of }Ca_3(PO_4)_2}{1.00}\\\\\text{Moles of }Ca_3(PO_4)_2=(0.100mol/L\times 1.00L)=0.100mol$

Moles of calcium ions = $(0.100\times 3)=0.300$ moles

For D:

Molarity of calcium phosphate solution = 0.100 M

Volume of solution = 5.00 L

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.100M=\frac{\text{Moles of }Ca_3(PO_4)_2}{5.00}\\\\\text{Moles of }Ca_3(PO_4)_2=(0.100mol/L\times 5.00L)=0.500mol$

Moles of phosphorus atoms = $(0.500\times 2)=1.00$ moles

According to mole concept:

1 mole of a compound contains $6.022\times 10^{23}$ number of atoms

Number of phosphorus atoms in 0.500 moles of calcium phosphate will be = $(1.00\times 6.022\times 10^{23})=6.022\times 10^{23}$

For E:

1 mole of calcium phosphate contains 3 moles of calcium ions and 2 moles of phosphate ions.

So, 0.200 moles of calcium phosphate will contain = $(3\times 0.200)=0.600$ moles of calcium ions

Moles of calcium ions = 0.600 moles

Hence, the correct answer is Option B.

Convert 72g of O2 to moles

Volgvan

Moles = mass / molar mass
molar mass of O2 is 32
therefore moles = 72/32
= 2.25 moles
