Answer:
mass of HCl = 243.5426 grams

Explanation:
1- we will get the mass of the reacting gold:
volume of gold = length * width * height
volume of gold = 3.2 * 3.8 * 2.8 = 34.048 cm^3 = 34.048 ml<span>
density = mass / volume
Therefore:
mass = density * volume
mass of gold = </span>19.3 * 34.048 = 657.1264 grams

2- we will get the number of moles of the reacting gold:
number of moles = mass / molar mass
number of moles = 657.1264 / 196.96657 
number of moles = 3.3362 moles

3- we will get the number of moles of the HCl:
First, we will balanced the given equation. The balanced equation will be as follows:
Au + 2HCl ......> AuCl2 + H2
This means that one mole of Au reacts with 2 moles of HCl.
Therefore 3.3362 moles will react with 2*3.3362 = 6.6724 moles of HCL

4- we will get the mass of the HCl:
From the periodic table:
molar mass of H = 1 gram
molar mass of Cl = 35.5 grams
Therefore:
molar mass of HCl = 1 + 35.5 = 36.5 grams/mole
number of moles = mass / molar mass
Therefore:
mass = number of moles * molar mass
mass of HCl = 6.6724 * 36.5
mass of HCl = 243.5426 grams

Hope this helps :)

State ten important of osmosis?​
algol [13]

Explanation:

Osmosis is the movement of water molecules, across a semipermeable membrane, from a hypotonic solution to a hypertonic solution

Osmosis is critical in the maintenance of the right amount of water in the cells an organism. Water is a universal solvent and is especially important for biochemical activities of a cell. Osmosis maintains the right water homeostasis in cells.

Osmosis is useful in the absorption of water by the roots of the plants and the maintenance of transpirational pull that ensures herbecious plants remain upright.

Osmosis enables the opening and closing of plant stomata hence regulating the loss of water by the plants.

HELP PLSSSSS!!
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

68133080.02 g

Explanation:

I believe that the question is to find the mass of air in the room and not the molar mass of air since the molar mass of air was already given in the question as 28.97 g/mol.

Now, if 1 mole of a gas occupies 22.4 L

x moles of air occupies 52,681,428.8 Liters

x = 1 * 52,681,428.8 /22.4

x = 2351849.5 moles of air

Now, number of moles = mass/ molar mass

but molar mass = 28.97 g/mol

2351849.5 = mass/28.97

mass = 2351849.5 * 28.97

mass = 68133080.02 g

8. What is the oxidation number of N in KNO3?
Elza [17]

Answer:

The oxidation state of N in the KNO3 is +5

Explanation:

Oxidation rules:

1. Oxygen is -2, unless in peroxides.

2. Group 1 metals = +1

3. Group 2 metals = +2

4. If the molecule is neutral, all of the oxidation numbers have to add up to zero.

5. If the molecule is charged, all of the oxidation numbers have to add up to the charge of the molecule.  

So, the given formula represents the salt compound formula unit of potassium nitrate:  KNO3  

The formula unit is uncharged.

From our rules, we know that,

O = -2

And we can find K on the periodic table, in the first group, thus giving it a +1 charge. Now let's put it all together.

K = +1

N = x

O = -2

Let's take into account the number of atoms of each element we have and make an equation since we know everything has to add up to zero since the molecules are neutral.

+1 +x+3 (-2) = 0 (notice we multiplied 3 by -2 because in the formula we have 3 atoms of oxygen with -2 charge each)

x - 5 = 0

x = 5

Therefore, the oxidation number of N in KNO3 is +5.

Select all safety steps below that help you handle chemicals safety
Xelga [282]

Answer : For the experiment to study the diffusion across the semi permeable membrane, following are the safety steps that will help to handle chemicals safety;

  • Use droppers to transfer small amounts of chemicals  into another glassware, it will prevent the unnecessary spillage of the chemical.
  • Use tongs to move hot objects  as they may cause severe burns.
  • Check the test tubes for chips prior to using them otherwise it may leak the chemical inside it
  • Washing your hands after you finishing the lab experiment, this will ensure that food is not contaminated while consuming, with the chemicals that were stuck on the hands.
