A 0.652-g sample of a pure strontium halide reacts with excess sulfuric acid. the solid strontium sulfate formed is separated, d
seraphim [82]

Answer:

The formula of the original halide is SrCl₂.

Explanation:

  • The balanced equation of this reaction is:

SrX₂ + H₂SO₄ → SrSO₄ + 2 HX, where X is the halide.

  • From the equation stichiometry, 1.0 mole of strontium halide will result in 1.0 mole of SrSO₄.
  • The number of moles of SrSO₄ <em>(n = mass/molar mass) </em>= (0.755 g) / (183.68 g/mole) = 4.11 x 10⁻³ mole.
  • The number of moles of SrX are  4.11 x 10⁻³ moles from the stichiometry of the balanced equation.
  • n = mass / molar mass, n =  4.11 x 10⁻³ moles and mass = 0.652 g.
  • The molar mass of SrX₂ = mass / n = (0.652) / (4.11 x 10⁻³ moles) = 158.62 g/mole.
  • The molar mass of SrX₂ (158.62 g/mole) = Atomic mass of Sr (87.62 g/mole) + (2 x Atomic mass of halide X).
  • The atomic mass of halide X = (158.62 g/mole) - (87.62 g/mole) / 2 = 71 / 2  g/mole = 35.5 g/mole.
  • This is the atomic mass of Cl.
  • <em>So, the formula of the original halide is SrCl₂</em>.

An element X forms a compound XH 3 with hydrogen. Another element Y forms a compound YX 2 with X. Given that the valency of hydr

XH_{3}
H has a positive 1 charge. This means that having 3H = +3<span>.  This is a neutral compound so x= -3 because X+3H= 0

Y</span>X_{2} is also neutral so 2X+Y= 0
we know X=-3 So, 2(-3)+Y=0
-6+y=0
Y=+6 charge

 
Answer: The valency of X is -3. The valency of Y is 6

What is the total number of moles (n) of electrons exchanged between the oxidizing agent and the reducing agent in the overall r
Sergeu [11.5K]
Answer:
             5 moles of electrons

Explanation:

The balance equation is as follow,

<span>                   5 Ag</span>⁺ + Mn⁺²<span> + 4 H</span>₂O    →<span>    5 Ag + MnO</span>₄⁻<span> + 8 H</span>⁺

Reduction of Ag:

                         Ag⁺ + 1 e⁻    →    Ag
Or,
                         5 Ag⁺  +  5 e⁻    →    5 Ag

Oxidation of Mn:

                          Mn⁺²   →    MnO₄⁻  +  5 e⁻

Result:
          Hence 5 moles of Ag⁺ accepts 5 electrons from 1 mole of Mn⁺².
