Answer is: mass of slaked lime is 6.92 grams.

Balanced chemical reaction: Ca(OH)₂ + 2NH₄Cl → CaCl₂ + 2NH₃ + 2H₂O.

m(NH₄Cl) = 10 g; mass of ammonium chloride.

M(NH₄Cl) = 14 + 1·4 + 35.5 · g/mol.

M(NH₄Cl) = 53.5 g/mol; molar mass of ammonium chloride.

n(NH₄Cl) = m(NH₄Cl) ÷M(NH₄Cl).

n(NH₄Cl) = 10 g ÷ 53.5 g/mol.

n(NH₄Cl) = 0.187 mol; amount of ammonium chloride.

From balanced chemical reaction: n(NH₄Cl) : n(Ca(OH)₂) = 2 : 1.

n(Ca(OH)₂) = 0.093 mol.

m(Ca(OH)₂) = n(Ca(OH)₂) · M(Ca(OH)₂).

m(Ca(OH)₂) = 0.093 mol · 74.1 g/mol.

m(Ca(OH)₂) = 6.92 g.

Explain how you would decide which represents a greater mass: 3.25 x 1022 atoms of Ca or 2.45 grams of Mg?
elena55 [62]

Answer:

  • <u>You need to convert the number of atoms of Ca into mass in grams, using Avogadro's number and the atomic mass of Ca.</u>

Explanation:

The amount of matter is measured in grams. Thus, you need to convert the number of atoms of Ca (calcium) into mass to compare with 2.45 grams of Mg.

To convert the atoms of calcium into mass, you divide by Avogadro's number, to obtain the number of moles of atoms, and then divide by the atomic mass of calcium.

<u />

<u>1. Number of moles, n</u>

      n=\dfrac{\text{number of atoms}}{\text{Avogadro's number}}\\ \\ \\ n=\dfrac{3.25\times 10^{22}}{6.022\times 10^{23}}=0.053969mol

<u />

<u>2. Mass</u>

  • mass = number of moles × atomic mass
  • mass = 0.053969mol × 40.078g/mol = 2.16g

Then, 2.45 g of Mg represent a greaer mass than the 3.25 × 10²² atoms of Ca.

Which of the following is not a correct chemical equation for a double displacement reaction? (D?)
emmasim [6.3K]
The correct answer would be the last option. A double displacement type of reaction involves the switching of places the cations and anions accordingly. The given reaction is erroneous since in the product side the anions and cations are being paired which would not make sense. The correct reaction should be

discuss how variations in electronegativity result in the unequal sharing of electrons in polar molecules.
konstantin123 [22]

Variations in electronegativity prompt in the unequal halves of electrons in polar molecules because when one atom is more electronegative than the other, it becomes more polar than the other.

It results in the more electronegative atom to have a slightly negative (-ve) charges, and the other atom to have partial or slightly positive(+ve) charges.

Polar molecules have unequal sharing of electrons because the atoms have unequal attraction for electrons so the sharing is unequal.

The larger the difference in electronegativity between the two atoms, the more the polar the bond.

Hydrogen bonds are involved in unequal sharing of electrons between two atoms.
