Chloe t. followed the procedure of this experiment to determine the empirical formula of a compound of iron (fe) and chlorine (c

l). to do so, she added 2.15 g of zn to a solution containing 1.750 g of fe(x)cl(y). after the reaction was complete, she isolated 0.771 g of fe. the mass of cl in the fe(x)cl(y) solution is

m(\text{Cl}) = 0.979 \; \text{g}

Explanation

The 1.750 \; \text{g} sample contains only the atoms of

  • Iron, \text{Fe}, and
  • Chlorine, \text{Cl}

Thus no matter what natural numbers x and y are, m(\text{Fe}_x\text{Cl}_y) = m(\text{Fe}) + m(\text{Cl}) shall holds.

Recall that zinc \text{Zn} is more reactive than iron as seen in the reactivity series;  Adding zinc to the solution would reduce all iron atoms (regardless of the oxidation state, +2 or +3) to their elementary form, hence displacing them out of the solution. 0.771 \; \text{g} of iron was obtained and therefore m(\text{Fe}) = 0.771 \; \text{g}.

Thus

\begin{array}{lll}m(\text{Cl})& =& m(\text{Fe}_x\text{Cl}_y) - m(\text{Fe})\\ & = &1.750 \; \text{g}- 0.771\; \text{g}\\ &=&0.979\; \text{g}\end{array}

Darwin's theorized that three conditions were necessary for natural selection to occur, which of the following is NOT one of the
Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

The correct option is: stable environment

Explanation:

According to the Darwin's theory, natural selection is the concept by which all the small useful variations of traits are preserved.

According to Darwin, there are three <u>necessary and sufficient conditions</u> for the occurrence of natural selection:

1. struggle for existence

2. variation

3. inheritance

These conditions are said to be necessary because if these conditions are not satisfied then natural selection does not occur.

These conditions are said to be sufficient because if these conditions are satisfied, then natural selection will most definitely occur.

If the prefix hydro were used to name a ternary acid, what problem would this create when naming chloric acid
Lady_Fox [76]

Hydrochloric acid is a different kind of acid than chloric acid.

Ternary Acids (Oxy-acids) Ternary acids are also referred to as “Oxy-acids. Include hydrogen and oxygen and yet another (normally) nonmetallic detail. Those acids comprise each hydrogen and oxygen but their names make no reference to either hydrogen or oxygen.

A ternary acid is an acid that has the elements hydrogen and oxygen together with every other element, frequently a nonmetal. Or, they comprise hydrogen in addition to a polyatomic ion. An -ate complicated ion is named an -ic acid. as an example, HClO3(aq) consists of the chlorate ion and is known as chloric acid.

A binary acid is an acidic compound that always has hydrogen boned to every other chemical element, most of the time a nonmetal. Ternary acids are acidic compounds that comprise hydrogen and oxygen blended with some other detail. Binary acid has one style of a chemical element (hydrogen bonded to a nonmetal) .

Answer please hurry I need the answer
Nady [450]

Homologous chromosomes are chromosome with the same relative shape and gene location. However the allele composition may vary.

So I would say B, but only if the orange represents the same allele for a gene and not the same gene.

A standard solution contained 0.8 mg/mL. A student took 2 mL of the standard solution and added 10 mL of water. What is the new/
galben [10]
To get the concentration of the second solution let us use the following formulae

C1V1=C2V2 where C1 is concentration of first solution and V1 is the volume of solution first solution. on the other hand C2 is the concentration of second solution and V2 is the volume of second solution.

therefore

0.8×2=(2+10)×C2
   1.6 =12×C2
1.6/12=C2
C2     = 0.1333mg/mL

Write a balanced half-reaction for the product that forms at each electrode in the aqueous electrolysis of the following salts:(
Semmy [17]

The balanced half-reaction for the product that forms at anode is Fe⁺² + 2e⁻ → Fe(s) and 2H₂O + 2e⁻ → H₂ + 2OH⁻, the product that forms at cathode is 2I⁻  → I₂ + 2e- and 2H₂O  → O₂ + 4H⁺ + 4e⁻  

<h3>What is Balanced Chemical Equation ?</h3>

The equation during which the number of atoms on the reactant side is equal to the number of atoms on the product side in an equation is called balanced chemical equation.

Now write the equation for FeI₂

At cathode:

Fe⁺² + 2e⁻ → Fe(s) Eo = - 0.44 V

2H₂O + 2e⁻ → H₂ + 2OH⁻ Eo = - 0.827 V

It is easy to decrease Fe⁺² ions than the water, the product which is formed at cathode is Iron.

At anode:

2I⁻  → I₂ + 2e-    Eo = - 0.54 V

2H₂O  → O₂ + 4H⁺ + 4e⁻    Eo = -1.23 V

O₂ gas formed at anode.

Thus from the above conclusion we can say that The balanced half-reaction for the product at anode is Fe⁺² + 2e⁻ → Fe(s) and 2H₂O + 2e⁻ → H₂ + 2OH⁻, the product that forms at cathode is 2I⁻  → I₂ + 2e- and 2H₂O  → O₂ + 4H⁺ + 4e⁻.
