If 200.4g of water is mixed with 101.42g of salt the mass of the final solution would be reported as
d1i1m1o1n [39]

Answer:

301.8 g

Explanation:

We prepare a solution with 200.4 g of water (solvent) and 101.42 g of salt (solute). The mass of the solution is equal to the sum of the mass of the solvent and the mass of the solute.

m(solution) = m(solute) + m(solvent)

m(solution) = 200.4 g + 101.42 g

m(solution) = 301.8 g (we round-off to one decimal according to the significant figures rules)

Potassium metal and chlorine gas combine in a reaction to produce an ionic compound. What is the correct balanced equation for t
Alisiya [41]

Answer:

2K (s) + Cl₂ (g) ⇒ 2KCl (s)

Explanation:

Potassium and chlorine gas combine to form potassium chloride which is an ionic compound. The reaction is a type of combination reaction in which chlorine is being added to the metal, potassium.

Potassium reacts violently with the chlorine which is yellowish green in color to produce white solid of potassium chloride.

The balanced reaction is shown below as:

2K (s) + Cl₂ (g) ⇒ 2KCl (s)

Two hydrogen atoms collide in a head on collision and end up with zero kinetic energy. Each then emits a photon of 121.6 nm (n=2
Zinaida [17]

Explanation:

Expression for the kinetic energy is as follows.

         K.E = \frac{1}{2}mv^{2}

Now, total kinetic energy will be as follows.

    K.E = 2 \times \frac{1}{2}mv^{2} = m \times v^{2}

Since, this energy converts into electromagnetic radiation of wavelength 121.6 nm.

Relation between energy and photon is as follows.

   Energy of photon = \frac{hc}{\lambda}

                                = \frac{6.626 \times 10^{-34} \times 3 \times 10^{8}}{121.6 \times 10^{-9}}

                                 = 1.63 \times 10^{-18} J

    m \times v^{2} = 1.63 \times 10^{-18}

          v = \sqrt{\frac{1.63 \times 10^{-18}}{1.67 \times 10^{-27}}

             = 3.12 \times 10^{4} m/s

Thus, we can conclude that atoms were moving at a speed of 3.12 \times 10^{4} m/s before the collision.

What are the number of ions Fe^+2 and Fe^+3 in Fe7(CN)18?​
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

2x + 3y = 18 sum of charges of the iron ions must be +18 to balance 18 CN- ... y = 4 so there are 4 Fe3+ ions and (7–4) = 3
