1.1 Outline a method for separating the chalk from potassium chloride,

Chemistry
1 answer:
miss Akunina [59]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

Explanation:

To separate the a mixture of chalk and potassium chloride, we must not that chalk is calcium carbonate compound, CaCO₃.

Calcium carbonate has low solubility in water. KCl is readily soluble in water and it is also an ionic compound.

To separate a mixture of compounds with various solubility, we can carryout dissolution, filtration and evaporation.

We first pour pure water into the mixture. Water will dissolve the potassium chloride readily.

Then using a filter paper we filter out the suspended chalk particles. Leave the filtrate to then dry and collect it.

The solution filtered should be evaporated to dryness. This will leave the KCl behind from the solution.

Write a balanced chemical equation for the complete combustion of C3H7BO3, a gasoline additive. The products of combustion are C
nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

2C₃H₇BO₃ + 8O₂ → 6CO₂ + 7H₂O + B₂O₃.

Explanation:

  • For balancing a chemical equation, we should apply the law of conversation of mass. It states that the no. of atoms in the reactants side is equal to that of the products side.

So, the balanced equation:

<em>2C₃H₇BO₃ + 8O₂ → 6CO₂ + 7H₂O + B₂O₃.</em>

It is clear that 2.0 moles of C₃H₇BO₃ is completely burned in 8 m oles of oxygen and produce 6 moles of CO₂, 7 moles of H₂O and 1 mole of B₂O₃.

If the lab technician needs 30 liters of a 25% acid solution, how many liters of the 10% and the 30% acid solutions should she m
Mice21 [21]

Answer:

7.5 L of the 10% and 22.5 L of the 30% acid solution, she should mix.

Explanation:

Let the volume of 10% acid solution used to make the mixture = x L

So, the volume of 30% acid solution used to make the mixture = y L

Total volume of the mixture = <u>x + y = 30 L .................. (1) </u>

For 10% acid solution:

C₁ = 10% , V₁ = x L

For 30% acid solution :

C₂ = 30% , V₂ = y L

For the resultant solution of sulfuric acid:

C₃ = 25% , V₃ = 30 L

Using  

C₁V₁ + C₂V₂ = C₃V₃

10×x + 30×y = 25×30

So,  

<u>x + 3y = 75 .................. (2) </u>

Solving 1 and 2 we get,

<u>x = 7.5 L </u>

<u>y = 22.5 L</u>

How does an atom of one element differ from the atom of another element?
Temka [501]

Explanation:

The atoms of one element differs from the atoms of other elements in terms of the number of protons they contain. This is often taken as the atomic number of such an atom.

  • The number of proton is the best indicator of the atom one is dealing with.
  • Based on this number, elements are categorized into distinct columns and rows on the periodic table.
  • The atomic number is the number of protons or positively charge particles in the atom.

II.

It is possible to change the identity of an atom. This is only possible by altering the atomic number of the atom.

Only nuclear reactions have this capability.

When an atom undergoes nuclear reaction that involves change in number of protons, transmutation occurs and a new atom forms.
