The answer is 111g of calcium chloride
Andreas93 [3]3 years ago

Answer: 111 g

Explanation:

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance weighs equal to the molecular mass and contains avogadro's number 6.023\times 10^{23} of particles.

To calculate the moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles of calcium}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}=\frac{40g}{40g/mol}=1mole

\text{Number of moles of chlorine}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}=\frac{71g}{71g/mol}=1mole

Ca+Cl_2\rightarrow CaCl_2

1 moles of calcium react with 1 mole of chlorine to give 1 mole of calcium chloride.

Mass of calcium chloride =moles\times {\text {molar mass}}=1mol\times 111g/mol=111g

Thus 111 g of calcium chloride is produced.

You need a 70% alcohol solution. On hand, you have a 135 mL of a 20% alcohol mixture. You also have 85% alcohol mixture. How muc
frutty [35]

To obtain the desired solution:

450 mL of 85% alcohol solution is needed to obtain the desired solution.  

Calculation:

Let x be the amount of the 85% alcohol required

The volume of the resulting 70% alcohol solution will then be = x + 135 ml

135 mL of the 20% alcohol solution contains the amount of "pure" alcohol is =  0.20×135 mL.

The 85% alcohol solution contains x mL of "pure" alcohol = 0.85× x mL.

The total amount of the "pure" alcohol is the sum

=  0.20×135 + 0.85× x mL.

It should be equal to the amount of the "pure" alcohol in the mixture, which is = 0.70× (x+135) ml.

So, your "pure alcohol" equation is,  

=  0.85× x + 0.20×135 = 0.70× (x+135)

Simplify and solve it for x:

0.85x + 0.20×135 = 0.70x + 0.70×135,

0.85x - 0.70x = 0.70×135 - 0.20×135,

0.15x = 67.5

x = 67.5/0.15

= 450mL.

Mg(OH)2+2 HCI = MgCI2+ H2O
In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

Mg(OH)2 + 2HCI ⇒ MgCI2 + 2H2O

Explanation:

In order to balance a chemical equation you need to make sure both sides of the equations are equal.

Mg(OH)2 + 2HCI = MgCI2 + H2O

Mg = 1

Oh = 2

HCI = 2

Products:

Mg = 1

CI = 2

H = 2

O = 1

2H20 = 1 × 2 = 2

2 × 2 = 4

2HCI

1 × 2 = 2

Mg(OH)2 + 2HCI ⇒ MgCI2 + 2H2O

Hope this helps.

1. What kinds of metals are REALLY reactive? why?
Olin [163]

Answer:

1. Alkali metals (group 1)

2. halogens (Group 17)

3. noble gasses (group 18)

Explanation:

1. alkali metals only have one valence electron meaning that they really want to lose that one valence electron to get a full octet.

2. halogens have 7 valence electrons meaning that they just need to gain 1 to get a full octet.

3. Nobel gasses already have a full octet meaning that they don't want to react. (atoms only react to get a full octet)

I hope this helps.  Let me know if anything is unclear.
