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.

The density of ethanol, a colorless liquid that is commonly known as grain alcohol, is 0.798 g/mL Calculate the mass of 205 mL o

katovenus [111]

Answer:

Mass of 205 mL of the liquid is 164 g

Explanation:

We know, $density=\frac{mass}{volume}$

Here density of liquid is 0.798 g/mL and volume of liquid is 205 mL

So, mass of liquid = $density\times volume$

= $(0.798 g/mL)\times (205 mL)$

= 164 g

hence mass of 205 mL of the liquid is 164 g.

What is the percent composition of phosphoric acid (H3PO4)?

aleksklad [387]

Answer:

H3PO4 Mol mass..

= (3 x H1 = 3) + (1 x P31 = 31) + (4 x O16 = 64). = 98g/mol.

a)..Hydrogen: = 3 / 98 = 0.0306 x 100% = 3.06%.

b)..Phosphorus = 31/98 = 0.3162 x 100% = 31.63%.

c)..Oxygen = 64/98 = 0.6531 x 100% = 65.31%.

(Total = 100% H3PO4).

Explanation:

Find the molar mass of all the elements in the compound in grams per mole.

Find the molecular mass of the entire compound.

Divide the component's molar mass by the entire molecular mass.

You will now have a number between 0 and 1. Multiply it by 100% to get percent composition.
