Answer:

99.24%.

Explanation:

  • NaCl reacted with AgNO₃ as in the balanced equation:

<em>NaCl + AgNO₃ → AgCl(↓) + NaNO₃,</em>

1.0 mol of NaCl reacts with 1.0 mol of AgNO₃ to produce 1.0 mol of AgCl and 1.0 mol of NaNO₃.

  • We need to calculate the no. of moles of AgCl produced:

no. of moles of AgCl = mass/molar mass = (2.044 g)/(143.32 g/mol) = 0.0143 mol.

  • Now, we can calculate the no. of moles of NaCl that can precipitated as AgCl (0.0143 mol), these moles represents the no. of moles of pure NaCl in the sample:

<em>using cross multiplication:</em>

1.0 mol of NaCl produce → 1.0 mol of AgCl, from the stichiometry.

∴ 0.0143 mol of NaCl produce → 0.0143 mol of AgCl.

  • Now, we can get the mass of puree NaCl in the sample:

mass of pure NaCl = (no. of moles of pure NaCl)(molar mass of NaCl) = (0.0143 mol)(58.44 g/mol) = 0.8357 g.

∴ The percentage of NaCl in the impure sample = [(mass of pure NaCl)/(mass of the impure sample)] x 100 = [(0.8357 g)/(0.8421 g)] x 100 = 99.24%.

What is an example of kinetic energy? Question 7 options: A frisbee flying through the air A car in the garage A box sitting on
Amiraneli [1.4K]
Kinetic energy is energy that comes from motion. Anything that is currently in motion has kinetic energy.

Let’s look at each example to determine if they have kinetic energy.

First off, a car in the garage: let’s ask ourselves- Is the car in motion?
No, it is sitting in the garage. It is not moving; therefore it doesn’t have any kinetic energy.

Next, a box sitting on a shelf: let’s ask ourselves the same question- Is the box in motion?
No, it is sitting on the shelf. Again, it is not moving. It doesn’t have any kinetic energy.

Our third item is a ball lodged in a tree: again, we will ask ourselves the same question- Is the object moving?
No, it isn’t moving. Again, since it is not moving, it will not have kinetic energy.

Our last item is a frisbee flying through the air: asking ourselves the same question- Is it moving?
Yes, the object is moving. Yes, it has kinetic energy.

The frisbee flying through the air has kinetic energy.
