0.422 g of an element z reacts with oxygen to form 0.797 g of the oxide z2o3. what is the element z?

1 answer:

6 0

Total mass of oxide z2o3 is 0.797g
mass of element z in the oxide is 0.422g
therefore, mass of oxygen in the oxide is 0.797 - 0.422 = 0.375 g
Number of moles of oxygen in the oxide = 0.375/16 = 0.02344 (atomic mass
of oxygen=16)
From the given chemical formula of oxide, we know that, the element z and
oxygen are in the ratio of 2:3. So, number of moles of z is 0.02344 *2/3 =
0.015625
Hence, atomic mass of z should be = 0.422/0.015625 = 27
Element with atomic mass 27 is Aluminium. The oxide is Al2o3

Which of the following are not single-displacement reactions?

Goshia [24]

Answer:

$\boxed{\text{B and C }}$

Explanation:

In a single-displacement reaction, one element exchanges partners with another element in a compound.

$\textbf{A. } \rm Fe + 2HCl \longrightarrow FeCl_2 + H_2$

This is a single-displacement reaction, because the element Fe exchanges partners with H in HCl.

$\textbf{B. } \rm KOH + HNO_3 \longrightarrow H_2O + KNO_3$

This is not a single-displacement reaction, because it is a reaction between two compounds.

This is a double displacement reaction in which the K⁺ and H⁺ cations change partners with the anions.

$\textbf{C. } \rm Na_2S + 2HCl \longrightarrow 2NaCl + H_2S$

This is not a single-displacement reaction. It is another double displacement reaction, in which the Na⁺ and H⁺ cations change partners with the anions.

$\textbf{D. } \rm Ca + 2HOH \longrightarrow Ca(OH)_2 + H_2$

This is a single-displacement reaction, because the element Ca exchanges partners with H in H₂O.

$\boxed{\textbf{B and C }}$ are not single-displacement reactions.
