If the complete conversion of 1.383g of XI2 results in the formation of 0.564g of XCl2,what is the atomic mass of the element X

Chemistry
1 answer:
Marina CMI [18]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

So X has an atomic mass of 55.05 u, and is probably Mn

Explanation:

<u>Step1: </u>Balance the equation

XI2 +Cl2 →  XCl2 + I2

<u>Step2:</u> find the molar mass of the compounds

<em><u>Compounds : </u></em>

X  ⇒ Molar mass = M

XI2 ⇒ Molar mass = M + 2*126.9 u

XCl2 ⇒Molar mass = M + 2*35.45u

⇒For 1 mole XI2 we have 1 mole Cl2 reacting , as well as 1 mole XCl2 and 1 mole I2 produced.

<u>Step 3:</u> Calculating the atomic mass

(1.383g * XI2) / (M + 2*126.90 u)  = (0.564g * XCl2) / ( M + 2 * 35.45u)

1.383 (M + 2 *35.45 u )= 0.564 (M  + 2*126.90)

1.383M + 98.0547 = 0.564 M + 143.1432

1.383 M - 0.564 M =143.1432 - 98.0547

0.819 M = 45.0885

M = 55.05 u

So X has an atomic mass of 55.05 u ⇒ if we look at the periodic table we can find that the closest element is Manganese (Mn)

MnI2 + Cl2 → MnCl2 + I2

Which type of combination is a mixture?
DochEvi [55]

Answer:

C.  physical

Explanation:

A mixture is a physical combination. Mixtures are combinations of compounds and molecules without any chemical reaction taking place.

Mixtures have the following properties:

  • They have an indefinite composition i.e they consist of two or more elements and or compounds in any proportion by mass
  • Their constituents retains their identities i. e physical property is retained.
  • Their constituents reacts differently to changed conditions.
  • They are easily separated into constituents by physical methods

A particular reaction, A- products, has a rate that slows down as the reaction proceeds. The half-life of the reaction is found
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Explanation:

Half life of zero order and second order depends on the initial concentration. But as the given reaction slows down as the reaction proceeds, therefore, it must be second order reaction. This is because rate of reaction does not depend upon the initial concentration of the reactant.

a. As it is a second order reaction, therefore, doubling reactant concentration, will increase the rate of reaction 4 times. Therefore, the statement  a is wrong.

b. Expression for second order reaction is as follows:

\frac{1}{[A]} =\frac{1}{[A]_0} +kt

the above equation can be written in the form of Y = mx + C

so, the plot between 1/[A] and t is linear. So the statement b is true.

c.

Expression for half life is as follows:

t_{1/2}=\frac{1}{k[A]_0}

As half-life is inversely proportional to initial concentration, therefore, increase in concentration will decrease the half life. Therefore statement c is wrong.

d.

Plot between A and t is exponential, therefore there is no constant slope. Therefore, the statement d is wrong

Solve the quadratic equation 2x^2+13x=15 by method of completing the square<br>​
mafiozo [28]

Answer:

x = 1, -7.5

Explanation:

2x² + 13x = 15

Divide the left side of the equation by 2

2(x² + 6.5x) = 15

Divide 6.5 by 2 and square the quotient

6.5/2 = 3.25

3.25² = 10.5625

Add 10.5625 to the left side

2(x² + 6.5x + 10.5625) = 15

Since you have a 2 outside the parentheses, you will be adding 10.5625•2 to the right side.

10.5625 • 2 = 21.125

2(x² + 6.5x + 10.5625) = 36.125

To factor (x² + 6.5x + 10.5625), add b/2 to x

b/2 = 6.5/2 = 3.25

2(x + 3.25)² = 36.125

Divide by 2

(x + 3.25)² = 18.0625

Square root.

(x + 3.25) = √18.0625

x + 3.25 = ±4.25

Subtract 3.25.

x = 4.25 - 3.25 = 1

x = -4.25 - 3.25 = -7.5

x = 1, -7.5
