The balanced equation shows how sodium chloride reacts with silver nitrate to form sodium nitrate and silver chloride. NaCl + Ag
Verdich [7]
<span>NaCl First calculate the molar mass of NaCl and AgNO3 by looking up the atomic weights of each element used in either compound Sodium = 22.989769 Chlorine = 35.453 Silver = 107.8682 Nitrogen = 14.0067 Oxygen = 15.999 Now multiply the atomic weight of each element by the number of times that element is in each compound and sum the results For NaCl 22.989769 + 35.453 = 58.44277 For AgNO3 107.8682 + 14.0067 + 3 * 15.999 = 169.8719 Now calculate how many moles of each substance by dividing the total mass by the molar mass For NaCl 4.00 g / 58.44277 g/mol = 0.068443 mol For AgNO3 10.00 g / 169.8719 g/mol = 0.058868 Looking at the balanced equation for the reaction, there is a 1 to 1 ratio in molecules for the reaction. Since there is a smaller number of moles of AgNO3 than there is of NaCl, that means that there will be some NaCl unreacted, so the excess reactant is NaCl</span>

The molar mass of HgO is 216.59 g/mol. The molar mass of O2 is 32.00 g/mol. How many moles of HgO are needed to produce 250.0 g
Irina-Kira [14]
A reaction in which Oxygen (O₂) is produced from Mercury Oxide (HgO) would be a decomposition reaction.
           2HgO    →    2Hg    +    O₂

If 250g of O₂ is needed to be produced,
then the moles of oxygen needed to be produced = 250g  ÷  32 g/mol
                                                                                     = 7.8125 mol

Now, the mole ratio of Oxygen to Mercury Oxide is  1  :  2
∴ if the moles of oxygen =  7.8125 mol
then the moles of mercury oxide = 7.8125 mol × 2
                                                        = 15.625 mol


Thus the number moles of HgO needed to produce 250.0 g of O₂ is 15.625 mol

A chemist dissolves 1.3 mol NaCl in a 2.0-kg sample of water. What is the boiling point of this solution? (Assume that pure wate
mafiozo [28]
For this problem, the solution is exhibiting some colligative properties since the solute in the solution interferes with some of the properties of the solvent. We use equation for the boiling point elevation for this problem. We do as follows:
<span>
ΔT(boiling point)  = (Kb)mi
</span>ΔT(boiling point)  = (0.512)(1.3/2.0)(2)
ΔT(boiling point)  = 0.67 degrees Celsius
<span>
T(boiling point) = 100 + 0.67 = 100.67 degrees Celsius</span>

What is in the space between electrons?
otez555 [7]

Answer:

The empty space between the atomic cloud of an atom and its nucleus is just that: empty space, or vacuum. ... Electrons are thus 'spread out' quite a bit in their orbits about the nucleus. In fact, the wave-functions for electrons in s-orbitals about a nucleus actually extend all the way down into the nucleus itself.
