What are two things that you observed when you heated the mixture of tin and nitric acid over the Bunsen burner in the virtual l

ab, and why was it necessary to heat the mixture in order to determine the empirical formula?

Sn + 4 HNO₃ →  SnO₂ + 4 NO₂ + 2 H₂O


Heating was required to get rid of the H₂O. When all moisture is gone, you weigh the sample. After which, you further heat it to get ride of the oxygen. By doing this, you would know the individual mass of each element. Then, you can solve for the empirical formula of the oxide of tin.


Hope this helps best of luck :)

Air-bags can be inflated by the decomposition of sodium azide, NaN3. At 25.0◦C and 1.10 atm, what volume of N2(g) is produced by
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

V = 36.7L of N_{2}

Explanation:

1. Write the chemical reaction for the decomposition of sodium azide:

_{2}NaN_{3}(l)=_{2}Na(s)+_{3}N_{2}(g)

2. Find the number of moles of N_{2} produced by the decomposition of 71.4g of NaN_{3}:

71.4gNaN_{3}*\frac{1molNaN_{3}}{65gNaN_{3}}*\frac{3molesN_{2}}{2molesNaN_{3}}=1.65molesN_{2}

3. Use the ideal gas equation to find the Volume of N_{2} occupied by 1.65 moles of N_{2}, at the temperature and pressure given by the problem:

PV=nRT

Solving for V:

V=\frac{nRT}{P}

Converting the temperature from ◦C to K:

25◦C+273.15=298.15K

Replacing values:

V=\frac{1.65mol*(0.082\frac{atm.L}{mol.K})*298.15K}{1.10atm}

V=36.7L of N_{2}

How many molecules are in 3 moles of potassium bromide (KBr)
sattari [20]

Answer:

Your strategy here will be to use the molar mass of potassium bromide,

KBr

, as a conversion factor to help you find the mass of three moles of this compound.

So, a compound's molar mass essentially tells you the mass of one mole of said compound. Now, let's assume that you only have a periodic table to work with here.

Potassium bromide is an ionic compound that is made up of potassium cations,

K

+

, and bromide anions,

Br

−

. Essentially, one formula unit of potassium bromide contains a potassium atom and a bromine atom.

Use the periodic table to find the molar masses of these two elements. You will find

For K:

M

M

=

39.0963 g mol

−

1

For Br:

M

M

=

79.904 g mol

−

To get the molar mass of one formula unit of potassium bromide, add the molar masses of the two elements

M

M KBr

=

39.0963 g mol

−

+

79.904 g mol

−

≈

119 g mol

So, if one mole of potassium bromide has a mas of

119 g

m it follows that three moles will have a mass of

3

⋅

molar mass of KBr

You should round this off to one sig fig, since that is how many sig figs you have for the number of moles of potassium bromide, but I'll leave it rounded to two sig figs
