The Difference Between an Alloy and an Amalgam

Chemistry
1 answer:
Delicious77 [7]3 years ago
6 0

Mixtures or combinations of various different metals or metallic substances form things called alloys. An alloy composed of mercury and other metal (or metals) forms "amalgam". When a true alloy is created, the component metals are combined together at a temperature which is greater than the melting point of all of them.

Also, it helps to remember the word "amalgamate", which means "to alloy (a metal) with mercury" according to Dictionary.com.


Hope this helped :)

If 1.08 g of sodium sulfate reacts with an excess of phosphoric acid, how much sulfuric acid is produced?
vfiekz [6]

Answer:  0.745 g of H_2SO_4 will be produced from  1.08 g of sodium sulfate

Explanation:

To calculate the moles :

\text{Moles of solute}=\frac{\text{given mass}}{\text{Molar Mass}}    

\text{Moles of} Na_2SO_4=\frac{1.08g}{142.04g/mol}=0.0076moles  

3Na_2SO_4+2H_3PO_4\rightarrow 2Na_3PO_4+3H_2SO_4

Na_2SO_4 is the limiting reagent as it limits the formation of product and H_3PO_4 is the excess reagent.

According to stoichiometry :

3 moles of Na_2SO_4 produce = 3 moles of H_2SO_4

Thus 0.0076 moles of Na_2SO_4 will require=\frac{3}{3}\times 0.0076=0.0076moles  of H_2SO_4

Mass of H_2SO_4=moles\times {\text {Molar mass}}=0.0076moles\times 98.1g/mol=0.745g

Thus 0.745 g of H_2SO_4 will be produced from  1.08 g of sodium sulfate

What is the limiting reactant if 12 moles of p4 react with 15 moles of o2?.
brilliants [131]

Answer:

see explanation

Explanation:

To determine limiting reactant divide mole quantities of reactants by the respective coefficient in the balanced equation. The smaller value is the limiting reactant.

    P₄      +     5O₂       => 2P₂O₅

12/1 = 12      15/5 = 3

O₂ is the limiting reactant. P₄ will be in excess when rxn stops.
