The given mass of cobalt chloride hydrate = 2.055 g

A sample of cobalt chloride hydrate was heated to drive off waters of hydration and the anhydrate was weighed.

The mass of anhydrous cobalt chloride = 1.121 g anhydrate.

The mass of water lost during heating = 2.055 g - 1.121 g = 0.934 g

Converting mass of water of hydration present in the hydrate to moles using molar mass:

Mass of water = 0.934 g

Molar mass of water = 18.0 g/mol

Moles of water = 0.934 g * \frac{1 molH_{2}O }{18 g H_{2}O } =0.0519 mol H_{2}O

A spectator ion is (Select all that apply.) a. an ionic component of a reactant that is unchanged by the reaction your eye, b. c
DENIUS [597]

Correct Question:

A spectator ion is (Select all that apply.)

- a piece of french fry contaminating the reaction mixture

- an ionic component of a reactant that is unchanged by the reaction

-in this experiment, nitrate ion

- your eye, carefully watching the progress of the reaction

Answer:

- an ionic component of a reactant that is unchanged by the reaction

Explanation:

A spectator ion is an ion that exists as a reactant and a product in a chemical equation. A spectator ion is one that exists in the same form on both the reactant and product sides of a chemical reaction.

Spectator ions are ions that are present in a solution but don't take part in the reaction. When reactants dissociate into ions, some of the ions may combine to form a new compound. The other ions don't take part in this chemical reaction and are therefore called spectator ions.

The correct option is therefore the option;

- an ionic component of a reactant that is unchanged by the reaction

Buffer consists of undissociated acid (ha) and the ion made by dissociating the acid (a-). How does this system buffer a solutio
docker41 [41]

In buffer solution there is an equilibrium between the acid  HA and its conjugate base A⁻: HA(aq) ⇌ H⁺(aq) + A⁻(aq).

When acid (H⁺ ions) is added to the buffer solution, the equilibrium is shifted to the left, because conjugate base (A⁻) reacts with hydrogen cations from added acid, according to Le Chatelier's principle: H⁺(aq) + A⁻(aq) ⇄ HA(aq). So, the conjugate base (A⁻) consumes some hydrogen cations and pH is not decreasing (less H⁺ ions, higher pH of solution).

A buffer can be defined as a substance that prevents the pH of a solution from changing by either releasing or absorbing H⁺ in a solution.

Buffer is a solution that can resist pH change upon the addition of an acidic or basic components and it is able to neutralize small amounts of added acid or base, pH of the solution is relatively stable

C(S)+O2(g)-->CO2(g)
soldi70 [24.7K]

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is 1.18 g.

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given a chemical equation:

C(S)+O2(g)\rightarrow CO_2(g)

We know that at STP conditions:

22.4L of volume is occupied by 1 mole of a gas.

So, 2.21L of carbon dioxide is occupied by = \frac{1}{22.4L}\times 2.21L=0.0986mol of carbon dioxide gas.

By Stoichiometry of the above reaction:

1 mole of carbon dioxide gas is produced by 1 mole of carbon

So, 0.0986 moles of carbon dioxide is produced by = \frac{1}{1}\times 0.0986=0.0986mol of carbon.

Now, to calculate the mass of carbon, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

Moles of carbon = 0.0986 mol

Molar mass of carbon = 12 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.0986mol=\frac{\text{Mass of carbon}}{12g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of carbon}=1.18g

Hence, the correct answer is 1.18 g.
