1 answer:

8 0

iron is a metal and sulfur is a non-metal and both are in the periodic table which means they are elements. Together they can form a compound with an ionic bond. and can be mixed to form a mixture.

How does the amount of water in a glass affect the pitch of the sound it produces?

Mrac [35]

Answer:

The glasses with different amounts of water make different sounds. ... This is because the empty glass only has air around it, so the glass vibrates quickly when it is hit, causing the high pitch sound. The glass full of water causes the glass to vibrate slower, and the sound you hear is at a lower pitch.

A 0.9440 g sample of a mixture of NaCl and KCl is dissolved in water, and the solution is then treated with an excess of AgNO3 t

Gnom [1K]

Answer : The percent by mass of NaCl and KCl are, 18.11 % and 81.88 % respectively.

Explanation :

As we know that when a mixture of NaCl and KCl react with excess $AgNO_3$ then the silver ion react with the chloride ion in both NaCl and KCl to form silver chloride.

Let the mass of NaCl be, 'x' grams and the mass of KCl will be, (0.9440 - x) grams.

The molar mass of NaCl and KCl are, 58.5 and 74.5 g/mole respectively.

First we have to calculate the moles of NaCl and KCl.

$\text{Moles of }NaCl=\frac{\text{Mass of }NaCl}{\text{Molar mass of }NaCl}=\frac{xg}{58.5g/mole}=\frac{x}{58.5}moles$

$\text{Moles of }KCl=\frac{\text{Mass of }KCl}{\text{Molar mass of }KCl}=\frac{(0.9440-x)g}{74.5g/mole}=\frac{(0.9440-x)}{74.5}moles$

As, each mole of NaCl and KCl gives one mole of chloride ions.

So, moles of chloride ions in NaCl = $\frac{x}{58.5}moles$

Moles of chloride ions in KCl = $\frac{(0.9440-x)}{74.5}moles$

The total moles of chloride ions = $\frac{x}{58.5}moles+\frac{(0.9440-x)}{74.5}moles$

Now we have to calculate the moles of AgCl.

As we know that, this amount of chloride ion is same as the amount chloride ion present in the AgCl precipitate. That means,

Moles of AgCl = Moles of chloride ion = $\frac{x}{58.5}moles+\frac{(0.9440-x)}{74.5}moles$

Now we have to calculate the moles of AgCl.

The molar mass of AgCl = 143.32 g/mole

$\text{Moles of }AgCl=\frac{\text{Mass of }AgCl}{\text{Molar mass of }AgCl}=\frac{1.903g}{143.32g/mole}=0.0133moles$

Now we have to determine the value of 'x'.

Moles of AgCl = $\frac{x}{58.5}moles+\frac{(0.9440-x)}{74.5}moles$

0.0133 mole = $\frac{x}{58.5}moles+\frac{(0.9440-x)}{74.5}moles$

By solving the term, we get the value of 'x'.

$x=0.171g$

The mass of NaCl = x = 0.171 g

The mass of KCl = (0.9440 - x) = 0.9440 - 0.171 = 0.773 g

Now we have to calculate the mass percent of NaCl and KCl.

$\text{Mass percent of }NaCl=\frac{\text{Mass of }NaCl}{\text{Total mass of mixture}}\times 100=\frac{0.171g}{0.9440g}\times 100=18.11\%$

$\text{Mass percent of }KCl=\frac{\text{Mass of }KCl}{\text{Total mass of mixture}}\times 100=\frac{0.773g}{0.9440g}\times 100=81.88\%$

Therefore, the percent by mass of NaCl and KCl are, 18.11 % and 81.88 % respectively.
