What happens if you add more solute to a unsaturated solution

1 answer:

6 0

The solute normally doesn't dissolve and sinks to the bottom of the container. However, some saturated solutions can become super-saturated for a given temperature and pressure, by altering the conditions without allowing solute to precipitate.

Which is the top layer of groundwater?

Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

An aquifer is a layer of porous substrate that contains and transmits groundwater. ... The upper level of this saturated layer of an unconfined aquifer is called the water table or phreatic surface. Below the water table, where in general all pore spaces are saturated with water, is the phreatic zone.

what mass of copper is produce when Zinc is added to a solution containing 31.9g copper (ii) tetraoxosulphate (vi)

Sergio [31]

12.7 grams of copper will be produced.

<h3><u>Explanation</u>:</h3>

Copper is placed below zinc in the metal activity series. This means zinc can replace copper from its salt. Here zinc is added to the salt solution of copper sulphate. The reaction involved is

CuSO4 +Zn =ZnSO4 +Cu.

Zinc sulphate is soluble in the solution and rose red copper will be precipitated from the solution.

From the chemical equation we can see that 1 mole of zinc replaces 1 mole of copper. As no mass of zinc added is mentioned we will assume that excess of zinc is added.

Atomic mass of copper = 63.5

Atomic mass of sulphur = 32.

Atomic mass of oxygen = 16.

So molecular mass of copper sulphate = $63.5 + 32 + 4\times16$ = 159.5.

So, mass of 1 mole of copper sulphate is 159.5 grams.

So, in 31.9 grams of copper sulphate, number of moles of copper sulphate present = $\frac {159.5}{31.9}$ = 0.2

In 1 mole of copper sulphate, 1 mole of copper is present.

So in 0.2 moles of copper sulphate, 0.2 moles of copper is present.

So mass of 0.2 moles of copper = $0.2\times63.5$ = 12.7 grams

A 7.337 gram sample of chromium is heated in the presence of excess oxygen. A metal oxide is formed with a mass of 9.595 g. Dete

Thepotemich [5.8K]

<h3>Answer:</h3>

Empirical formula is CrO

<h3>Explanation:</h3>

<u>We are given;</u>

Mass of sample of Chromium as 7.337 gram
Mass of the metal oxide formed as 9.595 g

We are required to determine the empirical formula of the metal oxide.

<h3>Step 1 ; Determine the mass of oxygen used </h3>

Mass of oxygen = Mass of the metal oxide - mass of the metal

= 9.595 g - 7.337 g

= 2.258 g

<h3>Step 2: Determine the moles of chromium and oxygen</h3>

Moles of chromium metal

Molar mass of chromium = 51.996 g/mol

Moles of Chromium = 7.337 g ÷ 51.996 g/mol

= 0.141 moles

Moles of oxygen

Molar mass of oxygen = 16.0 g/mol

Moles of Oxygen = 2.258 g ÷ 16.0 g/mol

= 0.141 moles

<h3>Step 3: Determine the simplest mole number ratio of Chromium to Oxygen</h3>

Mole ratio of Chromium to Oxygen

Cr : O

0.141 mol : 0.141 mol

1 : 1

Empirical formula is the simplest whole number ratio of elements in a compound.

Thus the empirical formula of the metal oxide is CrO
