During a lab, you heat 1.62 g of a CoCl2 hydrate over a Bunsen burner. After heating, the final mass of the dehydrated compound

is 0.88 g. Determine the formula of the hydrate and also give the full name of the hydrate. Please show all your work for the calculations for full credit.

Let the number of moles of water in the required formula be "y".
The final formula should be in the form of : CoCl2 yH2O
1.62 g is the weight of CoCl2 and water in the sample
After heating, the remaining mass represents  the mass the salt only
mass of water in sample = 1.62 - 0.88 = 0.74 g

From the periodic table:
molar mass of cobalt is 59 g
molar mass of chlorine is 35.5
molar mass of hydrogen is 1
molar mass of oxygen is 16

molar mass of formula = 59 + 2(35.5) + 18y = 130 + 18y g
Now we have calculate the mass/molar mass for each part of the formula (salt and water) and equate them to get number of moles of water as follows:
0.88 / 130 = 0.74 / y18 
<span>y = 6.07 which is approximately 6 moles
</span>
Thus, the final formula is CoCl2 6H2O. This hydrate is called cobalt(II)<span>chloride hexahydrate.</span>

Answer:The FitnessGram PACER Test is a multistage aerobic capacity test that progressively gets more difficult as it continues. The test is used to measure a student's aerobic capacity as part of the FitnessGram assessment. Students run back and forth as many times as they can, each lap signaled by a beep sound.

If 12.8 g lead(II) sulfate (303.3 g/mol) precipitates when excess potassium chloride is added to 1.65 L of a water sample, what
quester [9]

Answer:

M=0.0256M

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the undergoing chemical reaction is:

PbSO_4(aq)+2KCl(aq)\rightarrow PbCl_2(s)+K_2SO_4(aq)

In such a way, since all the lead (II) is converted due to the excess of potassium chloride, the moles of lead (II) in the sample are computed from the mass of lead (II) sulfate:

n_{Pb^{2+}}=12.8gPbSO_4*\frac{1molPbSO_4}{303.3gPbSO_4} *\frac{1molPb^{2+}}{1molPbSO_4} \\\\n_{Pb^{2+}}=0.0422molPb^{2+}

Thus, since volume of the solution is 1.65 due to the fact that the addition of the reactants is not enough to significantly modify the reaction's volume, the resulting molar concentration of the lead (II) ions is:

M=\frac{n_{Pb^{2+}}}{V}=\frac{0.0422molPb^{2+}}{1.65L}\\  \\M=0.0256M

Regards.

The total pressure of a mixture of oxygen and hydrogen is 1.00 atm. The mixture is ignited and the water is removed. The remaini
blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

molar composition of oxygen =0.2 (20%)

molar composition of hydrogen = 0.8 (20%)

Explanation:

Since hydrogen and oxygen react according to

2*H₂+ O₂ → 2*H₂O

according to the ideal gas law:

P₁*V=n₁*R*T (initial state)

P₂*V=n₂*R*T (final state)

dividing both equations

P₁/P₂ = n₁/n₂

then since 2 moles of hydrogen react for every mole of oxygen that reacts, thus oxygen that reacted "no" is

no =  (n₁-n₂) 1/(1+2) = n₁ (1-n₂/n₁)/3

then

molar composition of oxygen = xo= no/n₁ = (1-n₂/n₁)/3 = (1-P₂/P₁)/3 = (1-0.4 atm/1 atm )/3 = 0.2 (20%)

then

molar composition of hydrogen = xh= 1- xo = 0.8 (20%)

to verify it , the number of initial moles n₁=remaining hydrogen + hydrogen that reacted + oxygen that reacted

and since 2 moles of hydrogen react for every mole of oxygen that reacts n₁= n₂ + (n₁-n₂) (2/3) + (n₁-n₂) (1/3) = n₂ + (n₁-n₂) = n₁

hen doing part the above aldol reaction, how many grams of acetone would you need if you are trying to make a maximum theoretica
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

29.9g acetone

37.8mL acetone

Explanation:

The reaction is:

acetone + 2 2.2-dimethylpropanal → 2,2,8,8-tetramethylnona-3,6-dien-5-one

<em>Acetone (0.791g/mL, 58.08g/mol); 2,2,8,8-tetramethylnona-3,6-dien-5-one (194.13g/mol)</em>

<em />

100g of product are:

100g×(1mol/194.13g) = <em>0.515mol 2,2,8,8-tetramethylnona-3,6-dien-5-one</em>

<em />

As 1 mole of product comes from 1 mole of acetone, moles of acetone are 0.515mol. In grams:

0.515mol acetone × (58.08g/mol) = <em>29.9g acetone</em>

Now, in mL are:

29.9g acetone × (1mL / 0.791g) = <em>37.8mL acetone</em>
