Why do group 1 cations form precipitates when mixed with hcl?

1 answer:

8 0

Both of you are overlooking a pretty big component of the question...the Group I cation isn't being dissociated into water. We're testing the solubility of the cation when mixed with HCl. And this IS a legitimate question, seeing as our lab manual is the one asking.

By the way, the answer you're looking for is "Because Group I cations have insoluble chlorides". 

"In order...to distinguish cation Group I, one adds HCl to a sample. If a Group I cation is present in the sample, a precipitate will form."

Answer

The Density of a substance can change if its location changes.

Explanation

All the statements are TRUE except

The Density of a substance can change if its location changes.

This is because density is an intensive property, that is regardless of the object's shape, size, or quantity, the density of that substance will always be the same. Even if you cut the object into a million pieces, they would still each have the same density.

Therefore, the statement that is FALSE is

The Density of a substance can change if its location changes.

lilavasa [31]

Answer:

$m_{Fe}=12.6gFe$

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since we have grams of iron (III) oxide whose molar mass is 159.69 g/mol are able to compute the produced grams of iron by using its atomic mass that is 55.845 g/mol and their 2:4 molar ratio in the chemical reaction:

$m_{Fe}=18.0gFe_2O_3*\frac{1molFe_2O_3}{159.69gFe_2O_3}*\frac{4molFe_2O_3}{2molFe_2O_3} *\frac{55.845gFe}{1molFe_2O_3} \\\\m_{Fe}=12.6gFe$

Best regards.

I can't answer this question without knowing what the specific heat capacity of the calorimeter is. Luckily, I found a similar problem from another website which is shown in the attached picture.

Q = nCpΔT
Q = (1.14 g)(1 mol/114 g)(6.97 kJ/kmol·°C)(10°C)(1000 mol/1 kmol)
Q = +6970 kJ
