The balanced equation for the reaction is as follows
Cu₂O + 2HCl ---> 2CuCl + H₂O
Molar ratio of Cu₂O to CuCl is 1:2
mass of Cu₂O reacted - 73.5 g
Number of moles of Cu₂O reacted - 73.5 g / 143 g/mol = 0.51 mol
According to the molar ratio,
when 1 mol of Cu₂O reacts then 2 mol of CuCl is formed
therefore when 0.51 mol of Cu₂O reacts then - 2 x 0.51 mol of CuCl is formed
number of CuCl moles formed - 1.02 mol
mass of CuCl formed - 1.02 mol x 99 g/mol = 101 g
mass of CuCl formed is 101 g
Answer:
The amount of base needed is the amount that would give one mole of the hydroxide ion needed to neutralise one mole of the hydroxonium ion from the acid.
Explanation:
The chemical reaction between an acid and a base to form salt and water only is called a Neutralization reaction. Chemically
H⁺ + OH⁻ = H₂0
Hence, one mole of hydroxonium ion (H⁺) will combine with one mole of hydroxide ion (OH⁻) to give salt and water only.
In a completely neutralized reaction, the resulting salt is formed when there is complete dissociation of the acid and base to give salt and water with a pH of 7.
In the given question, the stated pH of between 8-9 tells us that the salt produced in this particular neutralization reaction is basic or alkaline. This usually occurs when a strong base reacts with a weak acid, producing a higher concentration of the hydroxide ion at equilibrium.
Hence the amount of base needed is the amount that would give one mole of the hydroxide ion needed to neutralise one mole of the hydroxonium ion from the acid.
If the concentration or molarity of the acid is known, then the exact amount of base required to neutralize it can be calculated. This is usually done via titrating the acid against drop wise solution of the base. Neutralization usually occurs when there is a change in colour of the resulting solution. The pH of the resulting solution can be determined using a litmus paper.
A blue litmus paper is indicative of a basic solution while a red litmus paper is indicative of an acidic solution.

I recently did this assignment!
Instructions: Read each myth (untruth). Reword it to make a factual statement. Then, give two to three reasons why the myth is untrue. Use complete sentences and support your answer with evidence, using your own words.
________________________________________
Answer:
Myth: A dead organism is the same as a nonliving thing in science.
o Fact: In science, dead is the same as nonliving.
o Evidence: Things that are nonliving never had the characteristics of life, and never will. Things that are dead once did have the characteristics of life, but when they die, they lose some of the characteristics. That is why dead and non-living are NOT the same thing.
Hope this helped!
Have an Amazing day!

Answer: 404.04 kJ.
Explanation:
To calculate the moles, we use the equation:
moles of

According to stoichiometry :
2 moles of
on burning produces = 1036 kJ
Thus 0.78 moles of
on burning produces =
Thus the enthalpy change when burning 26.7 g of hydrogen sulfide is 404.04 kJ.
