How do the properties of a compound like h2o or nacl illustrate the concept of emergent properties?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Softa [21]3 years ago
4 0

Answer and explanation;

Na - metal

Cl - poisonous gas

NaCl - cyrstaline solid that is edible

An emergent property is a property which a collection or complex system has, but which the individual members do not.  

Water emergent properties: cohesion & adhesion, versatile solvent, temperature moderation, freezing.

The properties of a compound can be very different from the properties of the elements that make them, for example, Sodium is an explosive metal, and  Chlorine is a toxic gas, however, sodium chloride is a Delicious table salt!

The mixing of which pair of reactants will result in a precipitation reaction?
Maru [420]

Answer:

K2SO4(aq) + Ba(NO3)2(aq)

Explanation:

K2SO4(aq) + Ba(NO3)2(aq)= 2KNO3(aq) + BaSO4(s)

The reaction produces BaSO4

Which precipitates as the insoluble product and Soluble KNO3 solution

Unit: Stoichiometry
Reika [66]

Answer:

1. 2.41 × 1023 formula units

2. 122 L

3. 7.81 L

Explanation:

1. Equation of the reaction: 2 Na(NO3) + Ca(CO3) ---> Na2(CO3) + Ca(NO3)2

Mole ratio of NaNO3 to CaCO3 = 2 : 1

Moles of CaCO3 = mass/molar mass

Mass of CaCO3 = 20 g; molar mass of CaCO3 = 100 g

Moles of CaCO3 = 20 g/100 g/mol = 0.2 moles

Moles of NaNO3 = 2 × 0.2 moles = 0.4 moles

1 Mole of NaNO3 = 6.02 × 10²³ formula units

0.4 moles of NaNO3 = 0.4 × 6.02 × 10²³ = 2.41 × 1023 formula units

2. Equation of reaction : 2 H2O ----> 2 H2 + O2

Mole ratio of oxygen to water = 1 : 2

At STP contains 6.02 × 10²³ molecules = 1 mole of water

6.58 × 10²⁴ molecules = 6.58 × 10²⁴ molecules × 1 mole of water/ 6.02 × 10²³ molecules = 10.93 moles of water

Moles of oxygen gas produced = 10.93÷2 = 5.465 moles of oxygen gas

At STP, 1 mole of oxygen gas = 22.4 L

5.465 moles of oxygen gas = 5.465 moles × 22.4 L/1 mole = 122 L

3.Equation of reaction: 6 K + N2 ----> 2 K3N

Mole ratio of Nitrogen gas and potassium = 6 : 1

Moles potassium = mass/ molar mass

Mass of potassium = 90.0 g, molar mass of potassium = 39.0 g/mol

Moles of potassium = 90.0 g / 39.0 g/mol = 2.3077moles

Moles of Nitrogen gas = 2.3077 moles / 6 = 0.3846 moles

At STP, 1 mole of nitrogen gas = 22.4 L

0.3486 moles of oxygen gas = 0.3486 moles × 22.4 L/1 mole = 7.81 L
