Which compound contains both ionic and covalent
musickatia [10]

Answer:

(3) NaNO₃

Step-by-step explanation:

Sodium nitrate has ionic bonds, because it consists of Na⁺ and NO₃⁻ ions.

However, the nitrate ions have <em>covalent bonds</em> between the O atoms and the central N atoms.

(1) and (2) are <em>wrong</em>. Both N₂O₅ and HCl consist of nonmetals, so they are <em>covalent</em> compounds.

(4) is <em>wrong</em>. NaCl has <em>only ionic bonds</em> between the Na⁺ and Cl⁻ ions

A buffer consists of 0.45 M CH3COOH (acetic acid) and 0.35 M CH3COONa. The Ka of acetic acid is 1.8 x 10-5 . a) Calculate the pH
Zigmanuir [339]

Answer:

A) pH of Buffer solution = 4.59

B) pH after 5.0 ml of 2.0 M NaOH have been added to 400 ml of the original    buffer solution = 4.65

Explanation:

This  is the Henderson-Hasselbalch Equation:

 pH = pKa + log\frac{[conjugate base]}{[acid]}

to calculate the pH of the following Buffer solutions.

An excess of sodium carbonate, Na, CO3, in solution is added to a solution containing 17.87 g CaCl2. After performing the
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

Approximately 81.84\%.

Explanation:

Balanced equation for this reaction:

{\rm Na_{2}CO_{3}}\, (aq) + {\rm CaCl_{2}} \, (aq) \to 2\; {\rm  NaCl}\, (aq) + {\rm CaCO_{3}}\, (s).

Look up the relative atomic mass of elements in the limiting reactant, \rm CaCl_{2}, as well as those in the product of interest, \rm CaCO_{3}:

  • \rm Ca: 40.078.
  • \rm Cl: 35.45.
  • \rm C: 12.011.
  • \rm O: 15.999.

Calculate the formula mass for both the limiting reactant and the product of interest:

\begin{aligned}& M({\rm CaCl_{2}}) \\ &= (40.078 + 2 \times 35.45)\; {\rm g \cdot mol^{-1}} \\ &= 110.978\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}\end{aligned}.

\begin{aligned}& M({\rm CaCO_{3}}) \\ &= (40.078 + 12.011 + 3 \times 15.999)\; {\rm g \cdot mol^{-1}} \\ &= 100.086\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}\end{aligned}.

Calculate the quantity of the limiting reactant (\rm CaCl_{2}) available to this reaction:

\begin{aligned}n({\rm CaCl_{2}) &= \frac{m({\rm {CaCl_{2}})}}{M({\rm CaCl_{2}})} \\ &= \frac{17.87\; \rm g}{110.978\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}} \\ &\approx 0.161023\; \rm mol \end{aligned}.

Refer to the balanced equation for this reaction. The coefficients of the limiting reactant (\rm CaCl_{2}) and the product ({\rm CaCO_{3}}) are both 1. Thus:

\displaystyle \frac{n({\rm CaCO_{3}})}{n({\rm CaCl_{2}})} = 1.

In other words, for every 1\; \rm mol of \rm CaCl_{2} formula units that are consumed, 1\; \rm mol\! of \rm CaCO_{3} formula units would (in theory) be produced. Thus, calculate the theoretical yield of \rm CaCO_{3}\! in this experiment:

\begin{aligned} & n(\text{${\rm CaCO_{3}}$, theoretical}) \\ =\; & n({\rm CaCl_{2}}) \cdot \frac{n({\rm CaCO_{3}})}{n({\rm CaCl_{2}})} \\ \approx \; & 0.161023\; {\rm mol} \times 1 \\ =\; & 0.161023\; \rm mol\end{aligned}.

Calculate the theoretical yield of this experiment in terms of the mass of \rm CaCO_{3} expected to be produced:

\begin{aligned} & m(\text{${\rm CaCO_{3}}$, theoretical}) \\ = \; & n(\text{${\rm CaCO_{3}}$, theoretical}) \cdot M(({\rm CaCO_{3}}) \\ \approx \; & 0.161023\; {\rm mol} \times 100.086\; {\rm g \cdot mol^{-1}} \\ \approx \; & 16.1161\; \rm g \end{aligned}.

Given that the actual yield in this question (in terms of the mass of \rm CaCO_{3}) is 13.19\; \rm g, calculate the percentage yield of this experiment:

\begin{aligned} & \text{percentage yield} \\ =\; & \frac{\text{actual yield}}{\text{theoretical yield}} \times 100\% \\ \approx \; & \frac{13.19\; {\rm g}}{16.1161\; {\rm g}} \times 100\% \\ \approx \; & 81.84\%\end{aligned}.
