Answer:

19 g

Explanation:

Data Given:

Sodium Chloride (table salt) = 50 g

Amount of sodium (Na) = ?

Solution:

Molecular weight calculation:

NaCl = 23 + 35.5

NaCl = 58.5 g/mol

Mass contributed by Sodium = 23 g

calculate the mole percent composition of sodium (Na) in sodium Chloride.

Since the percentage of compound is 100

So,

Percent of sodium (Na) = 23 / 58.5 x 100

Percent of sodium (Na) = 39.3 %

It means that for ever gram of sodium chloride there is 0.393 g of Na is present.

So,

for the 50 grams of table salt (NaCl) the mass of Na will be

mass of sodium (Na) = 0.393 x 50 g

mass of sodium (Na) = 19 g

During a synthesis reaction, 1.8 grams of magnesium reacted with 6.0 grams of oxygen. What is the maximum amount of magnesium ox
skelet666 [1.2K]

Answer:

2.9 grams.

Explanation:

  • From the balanced reaction:

<em>Mg + 1/2O₂ → MgO,</em>

1.0 mole of Mg reacts with 0.5 mole of oxygen to produce 1.0 mole of MgO.

  • We need to calculate the no. of moles of (1.8 g) of Mg and (6.0 g) of oxygen:

no. of moles of Mg = mass/molar mass = (1.8 g)/(24.3 g/mol) = 0.074 mol.

no. of moles of O₂ = mass/molar mass = (6.0 g)/(16.0 g/mol) = 0.375 mol.

<em>So. 0.074 mol of Mg reacts completely with (0.074/2 = 0.037 mol) of O₂ which be in excess.</em>

<em></em>

<em><u>Using cross multiplication:</u></em>

1.0 mole of Mg produce → 1.0 mol of MgO.

∴ 0.074 mol of Mg produce → 0.074 mol of MgO.

<em>∴ The amount of MgO produced = no. of moles x molar mass </em>= (0.074 mol)(40.3 g/mol) = <em>2.98 g.</em>

The ksp of copper(ii) carbonate, cuco3, is 1.4 × 10-10. calculate the molar solubility of this compound.
mafiozo [28]
As,
                              CuCO₃    ⇆  Cu²⁺  +  CO₃²⁻
So,
                             Kc  =  [Cu²⁺] [CO₃²⁻] / CuCO₃
Or,
                             Kc (CuCO₃)  =  [Cu²⁺] [CO₃²⁻]
Or,
                             Ksp  =  [Cu²⁺] [CO₃²⁻]
As,
Ksp  = 1.4 × 10⁻¹⁰
So,
                            1.4 × 10⁻¹⁰  =  [x] [x]
Or,
                             x²  =  1.4 × 10⁻¹⁰ 
Or,
                             x  =  1.18 × 10⁻⁵ mol/L
To cahnge ito g/L,
                             x  =  1.18 × 10⁻⁵ mol/L × 123.526 g/mol

                   
         x  =  1.45 × 10⁻³ g/L

How to calculate moles
blondinia [14]

Explanation:

First you must calculate the number of moles in this solution, by rearranging the equation. No. Moles (mol) = Molarity (M) x Volume (L) = 0.5 x 2. = 1 mol.

For NaCl, the molar mass is 58.44 g/mol. Now we can use the rearranged equation. Mass (g) = No. Moles (mol) x Molar Mass (g/mol) = 1 x 58.44. = 58.44 g.

barxatty [35]
Because the Potassium ion loses an electron, the electrons come a little closer to the nucleus because they are attracted to the protons. This makes the ion smaller in radius
