Answer:

The percent by mass of 3.55 g NaCl dissolved in 88 g water is 3.88%

Explanation:

When a solute dissolves in a solvent, the mass of the resulting solution is a sum of the mass of the solute and the solvent.

A percentage is a way of expressing a quantity as a fraction of 100. In this case, the percentage by mass of a solution is the number of grams of solute per 100 grams of solution and can be represented mathematically as:

Percent by mass=\frac{mass of solute}{mass of solution} *100

In this way it allows to precisely establish the concentration of solutions and express them in terms of percentages.

In this case:

  • mass of solute: 3.55 g
  • mass of solution: 3.55 g + 88 g= 91.55 g

Replacing:

Percentbymass=\frac{3.55}{91.55}*100

Percent by mass= 3.88%

<u><em>The percent by mass of 3.55 g NaCl dissolved in 88 g water is 3.88%</em></u>

The formula for a compound of Li₊ ions and Br_ ions is written LiBr. Why can't it be written Li₂Br? Why isn't it written BrLi?
bogdanovich [222]

Answer:

.

Explanation:

Lithium is in the first column of the periodic table, so it will have 1 valence electron.

Bromine is in the seventh column of the periodic table, so it will have seven valence electrons.

They must combine in a way to reach 8.

When combining elements to form compounds, the "crisscross method" is used. Above Li would be a charge of +1, and above Br would be a charge of -1.

Cross the 1 from the top of Li to the bottom of Br, and so there is 1 Br.

Cross the 1 from the top of Br to the bottom of Li, and so there is 1 Li.

It is not written BrLi because chemists decided to order them the other way. Technically speaking, it isn't wrong, but the positive charge is normally put on the left and the negative charge is normally put on the right.

Write the correct ionic formula when given two elements that bond ionically.
Tanzania [10]
Answer:
            Ionic bond is formed by the opposite ions attraction between the 2 atoms in an ionically bonded compound. The two ions i.e. Cation and Anions are formed by oxidation and reduction reactions respectively. General Ionic formula is as follow,

                                             Mⁿ⁺ + Nⁿ⁻   →  MN
where;
           Mⁿ⁺   =  Cation

           Nⁿ⁻   =  Anion

           MN  =  Salt

Explanation:
                   Ionic bond is the electrostatic forces of attraction between positively charged cations and negatively charged Anions. These forces are very stronger resulting in increasing several physical properties of Ionic compounds like melting point and boiling point e.t.c.

Example:

Sodium Chloride:
                           NaCl is formed by Na⁺ cation and Cl⁻ anion as follow,

Oxidation of Na;

                                      2 Na  →  2 Na⁺  +  2 e⁻
Reduction of Cl₂;

                                    Cl₂  +  2 e⁻  →  2 Cl⁻

Crystal Lattice formation is as follow,

                                  Na⁺  +  Cl⁻   →  NaCl

when 45 grams of copper (ii) carbonate are decomposed with heat how many grams of carbon dioxide will be produced
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

16.02 g

Explanation:

the balanced equation for the decomposition of CuCO₃ is as follows

CuCO₃ --> CuO + CO₂

molar ratio of CuCO₃ to CO₂ is 1:1

number of CuCO₃ moles decomposed - 45 g / 123.5 g/mol = 0.364 mol

according to the molar ratio

1 mol of CuCO₃ decomposes to form 1 mol of CO₂

therefore 0.364 mol of  CuCO₃ decomposes to form 0.364 mol of CO₂

number of CO₂ moles produced - 0.364 mol

therefore mass of CO₂ produced - 0.364 mol x 44 g/mol = 16.02 g

16.02 g of CO₂ produced
