What is the molarity of a solution of Cu2SO4 if 250.0 mL of solution contains 14.1 g of Cu2SO4?
balu736 [363]
Copper(I) compounds in aqueous solutions are unstable and disproportionate:
Cu₂SO₄ = Cu + CuSO₄
Necessary for dissolution of non-aqueous solvent.

M(Cu₂SO₄)=223.16 g/mol
m(Cu₂SO₄)=14.1 g
v=0.250 L

n(Cu₂SO₄)=m(Cu₂SO₄)/M(Cu₂SO₄)

c=n(Cu₂SO₄)/v=m(Cu₂SO₄)/(vM(Cu₂SO₄))

c=14.1/(0.250*223.16)=0.253 mol/L

0.253 M

A mixture of water and graphite is heated to 600 K in a 1 L container. When the system comes to equilibrium it contains 0.17 mol
Kryger [21]

Answer:

0.44 moles

Explanation:

Given that :

A mixture of water and graphite is heated to 600 K in a 1 L container. When the system comes to equilibrium it contains 0.17 mol of H2, 0.17 mol of CO, 0.74 mol of H2O, and some graphite.

The equilibrium constant K_c=  \dfrac{[CO][H_2]}{[H_2O]}

The equilibrium constant  K_c=  \dfrac{(0.17 )(0.17)}{0.74}

The equilibrium constant K_c=  0.03905

Some O2 is added to the system and a spark is applied so that the H2 reacts completely with the O2.

The equation for the reaction is :

H_2 + \dfrac{1}{2}O_2 \to H_2O \\ \\ 0.17 \ \ \ \ \  \ \ \ \ \to0.17

Total mole of water now = 0.74+0.17

Total mole of water now = 0.91 moles

Again:

K_c=  \dfrac{[CO][H_2]}{[H_2O]}

0.03905 =  \dfrac{[0.17+x][x]}{[0.91 -x]}

0.03905(0.91 -x) = (0.17 +x)(x)

0.0355355 - 0.03905x = 0.17x + x²

0.0355355 +0.13095 x -x²

x² - 0.13095 x - 0.0355355 = 0

By using quadratic formula

x = 0.265  or   x = -0.134

Going by the value with the positive integer; x = 0.265 moles

Total moles of CO in the flask when the system returns to equilibrium is :

= 0.17 + x

= 0.17 + 0.265

= 0.435 moles

=0.44 moles (to two significant figures)

pashok25 [27]

Answer:

Explanation:

Electrons are transferred from atoms of sodium to atoms of phosophorus. This transfer makes the sodium atoms positive and the phosphorus atoms negative. As a result, the sodium and phosphorus atoms strongly attract each other.

Choose all of the answers that are correct when describing this atom.
gregori [183]
I believe that this atom is  chlorine and the atom has an overall charge of zero.
Chlorine is chemical element which is atomic number 17 in the periodic table. Each chlorine atom has 17 protons (positively charged) in the nucleus balanced by 17 electrons (negatively charged) in the energy shells ( thus an overall charge of zero)
