How does the law of definite proportions apply to hydrates?

Chemistry
1 answer:
vladimir1956 [14]3 years ago
4 0
The law of definite proportions would state that a hydrate always contain exactly the same proportion of salt and water by mass.
strictly speaking, the law of definite proportion states that a compound always 
contains exactly the same proportion of elements by mass.
But the law is often applied to groupings of elements in compound.
Hydrates are salt that have a certain amount of  water asa part of their structure.
The water is chemically combined with the compound in a definite ratio.

Complete and balance the following redox reaction in basic solution
inn [45]

Answer:

balanced in ACID not BASE

Cr2O7^2-(aq) +3Hg(l) +14 H^1+ ----> 3Hg^2+ + 2Cr^3+(aq) + 7H2O

Answer

Cr2O7^2-(aq) +3Hg(l) +14 H^1+ ----> 3Hg^2+ + 2Cr^3+(aq) + 7H2O

Explanation:

Cr2O7^2-(aq) + Hg(l) ----> Hg^2+(aqH) + Cr^3+(aq)

add H^1+ (acid) to capture the O and make 7 water molecules

Cr2O7^2-(aq) + Hg(l) + H^1+ ----> Hg^2+(aqH) + Cr^3+(aq) + 7H2O

Cr goes from +6 to +3 by gaining 3 e

Hg goes from 0 to +2 by losing 2 e

we need 3 Hg for every 2 Cr

so

Cr2O7^2-(aq) +3Hg(l) +14 H^1+ ----> 3Hg^2+ + 2Cr^3+(aq) + 7H2O

2 Cr on the right and left

Net 12 positive charges on the right and the left

3 Hg on the right and left

14 H on the right and left

the equation is balanced

we cannot balance the equation in a basic solution with OH^1-

we have plenty of O in the dichromate ion. we need to convert it to water which take free H^1+ from the acid

1.5 moles of Al is how many<br> atoms?
aev [14]

Answer:

<h2>9.03 × 10²³ atoms </h2>

Explanation:

The number of atoms of Al can be found by using the formula

<h3>N = n × L</h3>

where n is the number of moles

N is the number of entities

L is the Avogadro's constant which is

6.02 × 10²³ entities

From the question we have

N = 1.5 × 6.02 × 10²³

We have the final answer as

<h3>9.03 × 10²³ atoms</h3>

Hope this helps you

Iron is a solid, grey metal. Oxygen is a colorless gas. When iron and oxygen chemically combine , rust is made. Rust has a reddi
Phoenix [80]
Because the formation of rust is a kind of chemistry reaction.
After chemistry reaction, compound with new properties is produced.
Of course, color is one of the new properties.
For example, if you put iron in colorless acid solution, a green solution is made.
This kind of chemisty reaction differs from physical reaction, for example, pigment with one color dissolves in liquid, a liquid with same color is made.
