A mixture contains only nacl and al2(so4)3. a 1.45 g sample of the mixture is dissolved in water, and an excess of naoh is added

, producing a precipitate of al(oh)3. the precipitate is filtered, dried, and weighed. the mass of the precipitate is 0.495 g. what is the mass percent of al2(so4)3 in the sample?

When mixture of NaCl and Al₂(SO₄)₃ is allowed to react with excess NaOH, only Al₂(SO₄)₃ reacts with it and NaCl does not react with NaOH due to presence of common ion (Na⁺). On reaction gelatinous precipitate of aluminium hydroxide [Al(OH)₃] is produced.  The balanced chemical reaction is represented as-

Al₂(SO₄)₃ + 6NaOH → 2Al(OH)₃ + 3Na₂SO₄

On this reaction, 0.495 g = 0.495/78 moles =6.346 X 10⁻³ moles of Al(OH)₃.

As per balanced reaction, two moles of Al(OH)₃ is produced from one mole Al₂(SO₄)₃. So, 6.346 X 10⁻³ moles of Al(OH)₃ is produced from (6.346 X 10⁻³)/2 moles=3.173 X 10⁻³ moles of Al₂(SO₄)₃= 3.173 X 10⁻³ X 342 g of Al₂(SO₄)₃=1.085 g of Al₂(SO₄)₃.

So, mass percentage of Al₂(SO₄)₃ is= (amount of Al₂(SO₄)₃/total amount of mixture)X100 = \frac{1.085 X 100}{1.45} =74.8 %.

What acids in alcohol make it evaporate
fgiga [73]

The acids found in alcohol that make it evaporate are called organic acids.

An organic acid is an organic compound that has acidic properties. There are two types: one has a carboxyl (COOH) group, and the other type has a phenol group.

The most common organic acids are those with a carboxyl group and include acetic acid, formic acid, lactic acid and all fatty acids.  Perfumes  include organic acid in their composition to make them volatile. Volatile substances evaporate easily, and this is important for perfumes. They need to dissipate easily into the surrounding environment and spread their good smell.

2. What pressure is required to compress 196.0 L of air at 1.00 atmosphere into a cylinder
damaskus [11]

Answer:

<h2>7.54 atm </h2>

Explanation:

The required pressure can be found by using the formula for Boyle's law which is

P_2 =  \frac{P_1V_1}{V_2}  \\

where

P1 is the initial pressure

P2 is the final pressure

V1 is the initial volume

V2 is the final volume

From the question we have

P_2 =  \frac{1 \times 196}{26}  =  \frac{196}{26}   \\ = 7.538461...

We have the final answer as

<h3>7.54 atm </h3>

Hope this helps you
