Answer:

41.11 g of Ca(OH)2.

Explanation:

The balanced equation for the reaction is given below:

CaO(s) + H2O(l) → Ca(OH)2(aq)

Next, we shall determine the masses of CaO and H2O that reacted and the mass of Ca(OH)2 produced from the balanced equation. This can be obtained as follow:

Molar mass of CaO = 40 + 16 = 56 g/mol

Mass of CaO from the balanced equation = 1 × 56 = 56 g

Molar mass of H2O = (2×1) + 16 = 2 + 16 = 18 g/mol

Mass of H2O from the balanced equation = 1 × 18 = 18 g

Molar mass of Ca(OH)2 = 40 + 2(16 + 1)

= 40 + 2(17)

= 40 + 34

= 74 g/mol

Mass of Ca(OH)2 from the balanced equation = 1 × 74 = 74 g

From the balanced equation above,

56 g of CaO reacted with 18 g of H2O to produce 74 g of Ca(OH)2.

Next, we shall determine the limiting reactant. This can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

56 g of CaO reacted with 18 g of H2O.

Therefore, 33 g of CaO will react with = (33 × 18)/56 = 10.6 g of H2O.

From the calculation made above, we can see that it will take a higher amount (i.e 10.6 g) of H2O than was given (i.e 10 g) to react completely with 33 g of CaO. Therefore, H2O is the limiting reactant.

Finally, we shall determine the mass of Ca(OH)2 produced from the reaction.

In this case, the limiting reactant will be use because it will give the maximum yield of Ca(OH)2.

The limiting is H2O and the mass of Ca(OH)2 produced can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

18 g of H2O reacted to produce 74 g of Ca(OH)2.

Therefore, 10 g of H2O will react to produce = (10 × 74)/18 = 41.11 g of Ca(OH)2.

Thus, 41.11 g of Ca(OH)2 were obtained from the reaction.

Predict whether each of the following molecules is polar or non-polar:a) IF,b) CS2, c) SO3, d) PCl3, e) SF6, f) IF5.
BlackZzzverrR [31]
<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Polar: IF, PCl3, IF5  

Nonpolar: CS2, SO3, SF6

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>
  • Polar molecules form when two atoms do not share electrons equally in a covalent bond.
  • A molecule is classified as a polar molecule when the arrangement of the atoms is such that one end of the molecule has a positive electrical charge and the other end has a negative charge.
  • A non-polar molecule does not have electrical poles.The electrons are distributed more equally.
  • Therefore, a non-polar molecule does not have a profusion of charges at the opposite ends. The majority of hydrocarbon liquids are non-polar molecules.

describe how knowledge of the periodic table would be important in three different careers, based on what you’ve read.
ANEK [815]

The knowledge of periodic table would be important in these three different careers such as medicine, pharmacology and engineering.

<h3>What is the importance of periodic table in following careers?</h3>

Periodic table is organised the whole elements vertically in groups and horizontally in periods with increasing atomic number.

The knowledge of arrangement of these elements serves alot of purposes in the following three different careers:

  • Medicine: The element, iron is an important metal in the periodic table used in treatment of low blood levels.

  • Pharmacology: The transition metals are useful in the field of pharmacology for the production of drugs. Example of such elements are chromium, manganese, cobalt, nickel, copper, and molybdenum.

  • Engineering: The information of elements in the periodic table helps engineers in designing of materials used for constructions.

Therefore, the knowledge of periodic table is very important in these three different careers such as medicine, pharmacology and engineering.

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

The answer to your question is Sodium Perchlorate

Explanation:

Data

which is the salt?

Chemical reaction

    Perchloric acid  +  Sodium hydroxide ⇒  Sodium perchlorate + Water

      HClO₄               +       NaOH                =         NaClO₄                 + H₂O

Process

In inorganic chemistry there are two types of salts:

- Binary salts

- Oxysalts

Binary salts are inorganic compounds form by a metal and a nonmetal (only two compounds).

Oxysalts are inorganic compounds form by metal, a nonmetal, and oxygen (three elements).

In the reaction given the only compound that has these characteristics is Sodium perchlorate which is an oxysalt.
