Explain how you would separate a mixture of water, sand, salt and iron filings into its four component parts.

1 answer:

7 0

You would use the density difference to separate the sand, evaporate the water out (the water vapor will cool back to water if collected). Then use a magnet to get the iron fillings out of the salt.

What causes attraction and repulsion between atoms?

Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

Repulsive forces exist only when atoms are very close to each other. (3/14) "They [the atoms] will approach until both nuclei will simply shove each other because both of them are positive." The balance between the attraction and repulsion forces determines how close the atoms can get. The relationships between the magnitude and direction of repulsive and attractive forces. A stable state of a bond is when attractive forces balance repulsion forces. “A stable state between two atoms is when they attract each other with a force that equals the force that they repel each other.”

Sulfur and oxygen react to produce sulfur trioxide. In a particular experiment, 7.9 grams of SO3 are produced by the reaction of

shutvik [7]

Answer:

79%

Explanation:

1) Balanced chemical equation:

2S + 3O₂ → 2SO₃

2) Mole ratio:

2 mol S : 3 mol O₂ : 2 mol SO₃

3) Limiting reactant:

Number of moles of O₂

n = 6.0 g / 32.0 g/mol = 0.1875 mol O₂

Number of moles of S:

n = 7.0 g / 32.065 g/mol = 0.2183 mol S

Ratios:

Actual ratio: 0.1875 mol O₂ / 0.2183 mol S =0.859

Theoretical ratio: 3 mol O₂ / 2 mol S = 1.5

Since there is a smaller proportion of O₂ (0.859) than the theoretical ratio (1.5), O₂ will be used before all S be consumed, and O₂ is the limiting reactant.

4) Calcuate theoretical yield (using the limiting reactant):

0.1875 mol O₂ / x = 3 mol O₂ / 2 mol SO₃

x = 0.1875 × 2 / 3 mol SO₃ = 0.125 mol SO₃

5) Yield in grams:

mass = number of moles × molar mass = 0.125 mol × 80.06 g/mol = 10.0 g

6) Percent yield:

Percent yield, % = (actual yield / theoretical yield) × 100

% = (7.9 g / 10.0 g) × 100 = 79%
