Answer:

The water lost is 36% of the total mass of the hydrate

Explanation:

<u>Step 1:</u> Data given

Molar mass of CuSO4*5H2O = 250 g/mol

Molar mass of CuSO4 = 160 g/mol

<u>Step 2:</u> Calculate mass of water lost

Mass of water lost = 250 - 160 = 90 grams

<u>Step 3:</u> Calculate % water

% water = (mass water / total mass of hydrate)*100 %

% water = (90 grams / 250 grams )*100% = 36 %

We can control this by the following equation

The hydrate has 5 moles of H2O

5*18. = 90 grams

(90/250)*100% = 36%

(160/250)*100% = 64 %

The water lost is 36% of the total mass of the hydrate

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor destroyed but it can simply be transformed from one form to another.

For example, Na^{+} + Cl^{-} \rightarrow NaCl

Mass of Na = 23 g/mol

Mass of Cl = 35.5 g/mol

Sum of mass of reactants = mass of Na + mass of Cl

= 23 + 35.5 g/mol

= 58.5 g/mol

Mass of product formed is as follows.

Mass of NaCl = mass of Na + mass of Cl

= (23 g/mol + 35.5) g/mol

= 58.5 g/mol

As mass reacted is equal to the amount of mass formed. This shows that mass is conserved.

As a result, law of conservation of mass is obeyed.

Draw one line connecting each factor that increases the rate of a
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

Adding a catalyst - More collisions every second and more collisions with enough energy to break bonds.

Increase in pressure - more collisions every second

Increase in temperature - more collisions every second with enough energy to break bonds

Explanation:

According to the collision theory, chemical reaction occurs as a result of collision between reacting particles. Only particles that possess energy above the activation energy of the reaction can collide and result in product formation. Collision of particles having energy less than the activation energy merely result in elastic collisions.

Adding a catalyst lowers the activation energy of the reaction. If the activation energy is lowered, more reactants collide and more of those collisions now have enough energy to break bonds.

When the temperature is increased, the particles become more energetic hence more collisions with energy to break bonds occur.

Increase in pressure brings the reactant particles into close proximity hence more collisions occur.

Which of these pairs of elements would be most
allsm [11]

Answer:

The correct answer is  B) Cl and Mg

Explanation:

An ionic bond is produced by the union of a cation and an anion. In this case, Mg would be the cation and Cl the anion. They will form the compound Magnesium Chloride (MgCl2):

Mg + Cl2 ----> MgCl2

Mg belongs to group 2 of the periodic table, that is, it has two valence electrons. In the case of Cl, it is in group 7 and has seven valence electrons (requires one electron to complete the octet).
