By the way it's not mol, it's mole.
The mole is the unit of amount in chemistry.  It provides a bridge between the atom and the macroscopic amounts of material that we work with in the laboratory.  It allows the chemist to weigh out amounts of two substances, say iron and sulfur, such that equal numbers of atoms of iron and sulfur are obtained.  A mole of a substance is defined as:<span>The mass of substance containing the same number of fundamental units as there are atoms in exactly 12.000 g of 12C.</span>

Calculate the speed of sound wave with a frequency of 20hz and a wave length of 3.00m
Marta_Voda [28]
Wavelength is the distance of one frequency wave peak to the other and is most commonly associated with the electromagnetic spectrum.[1] Calculating wavelength is dependent upon the information you are given. If you know the speed and frequency of the wave, you can use the basic formula for wavelength. If you want to determine the wavelength of light given the specific energy of a photon, you would use the energy equation. Calculating wavelength is easy as long as you know the correct equation.

what is the balanced equation when copper metal is placed in a solution when platnium ii chloride is placed. what is the equatio
koban [17]

Answer:

Cu~+~PtCl_2->Pt~+~CuCl_2

Explanation:

In this case, we can start with the <u>formula of Platinum (II) Chloride</u>. The cation is the atom at the left of the name (in this case Pt^+^2) and the anion is the atom at the right of the name (in this case Cl^-). With this in mind, the <u>formula would be</u> PtCl_2.

Now, if we used <u>metallic copper</u> we have to put in the reaction only the <u>copper atom symbol</u> Cu. So, we have as reagents:

Cu~+~PtCl_2->

The question now is: <u>What would be the products?</u> To answer this, we have to remember <u>"single displacement reactions"</u>. With a general reaction:

A~+~BC->AB~+~C

With this in mind, the reaction would be:

Cu~+~PtCl_2->Pt~+~CuCl_2

I hope it helps!

How many moles of H2O are needed to produce 5.6 mol of NaOH?<br> Na2O + H2O --&gt; 2NaOH
navik [9.2K]

Answer: 2.8 moles

Explanation:

The balanced equation below shows that 1 mole of sodium oxide reacts with 1 mole of water to form 2 moles of sodium hydroxide respectively.

Na2O + H2O --> 2NaOH

1 mole of H2O = 2 moles of NaOH

Let Z moles of H2O = 5.6 mole of NaOH

To get the value of Z, cross multiply

5.6 moles x 1 mole= Z x 2 moles

5.6 = 2Z

Divide both sides by 2

5.6/2 = 2Z/2

2.8 = Z

Thus, 2.8moles of H2O are needed to produce 5.6 mol of NaOH
