Answer:

1.1445g

Explanation:

Mass of Zn = 2.0g

Mass of CuSO4 = 2.0g

Molar mass of Zn = 65.4g/mol

Molar mass of CuSO4 = 159.5g/mol

No. Of moles = mass / molar mass

No. Of moles of Zn = 2.0/65.4 = 0.030moles

No. Of moles of CuSO4 = 2/159.5 = 0.0125 moles

Equation of reaction

CuSO4 (aq) +Zn(s)-> ZnSO4(aq) + Cu(s)

Stoichiometric molar ratio of CuSo4 : Zn = 1:1

Actual molar ration of CuSO4 : Zn = ?

0.0125 / 0.030 = 1 / 2.4

Zn is present in excess in the reaction, while CuSO4 is the limiting reagent

1 mol of CuSO4 = 1 mol of Zn

0.0125 moles of CuSO4 = 0.0125 moles of Zn

No. Of moles left after reaction = 0.030 - 0.0125 = 0.0175 moles.

Mass = no. Of moles * molar mass = 0.0175 * 65.4 = 1.1445g

The mass of Zn left after the reaction is 1.1445g.

How does the appearance of a substance change when it changes phase?

kicyunya [14]

Answer:

Melting: the substance changes back from the solid to the liquid. Condensation: the substance changes from a gas to a liquid. Vaporization: the substance changes from a liquid to a gas. Sublimation: the substance changes directly from a solid to a gas without going through the liquid phase.

What would be the major product obtained from hydroboration–oxidation of the following alkenes?

zmey [24]

Answer:

a. 3-methylbutan-2-ol

b. 2-methylcyclohexan-1-ol

Explanation:

For this reaction, we must remember that the hydroboration is an "anti-Markovnikov" reaction. This means that the "OH" will be added at the least substituted carbon of the double bond.

In the case of 2-methyl-2-butene, the double bond is between carbons 2 and 3. Carbon 2 has two bonds with two methyls and carbon 3 is attached to 1 carbon. Therefore the "OH" will be added to carbon three producing 3-methylbutan-2-ol.

For 1-methylcyclohexene, the double bond is between carbons 1 and 2. Carbon 1 is attached to two carbons (carbons 6 and 7) and carbon 2 is attached to one carbon (carbon 3). Therefore the "OH" will be added to carbon 2 producing 2-methylcyclohexan-1-ol.

Which statements are correct about silicon?

ki77a [65]

Answer:

A. Metalloid

E. Has similar properties as Ge

F. Belongs to Period 3

Explanation:

Silicon is the 14th element on the periodic table. Its unit is SI. Its properties straddles between those of metals and non-metals and it is described as a non-metal.

It's atomic weight or mass number is 28u. It has an atomic number of 14 i.e in its neutral state, the number of protons and electrons are equal to 14.

Silicon belongs to the 4th group and the 3rd period on the periodic table. Elements in the same group share similar chemical properties. The elements in Si group are: C, Ge, Sn and Pb. The properties of Si is similar to these elements because they all have a valency of 4. Across the period, the properties varies this is why Si would have a very different property from Al and P.
