Answer:

The  net ionic equation for the overall reaction is

          H_2C_2O_4{(aq)} + 2OH^-_{(aq)} ----> C_2O_4^{2-}_{(aq)} + 2H_2O_{(l)}

Explanation:

The molecular formula for sodium hydroxide is  NaOH while the molecular formula for oxalic acid is given as (H_2 C_2 O_4)

   Now the balanced chemical equation for this reaction is

           H_2C_2 O_4_{(aq)} + 2NaOH_{(aq)}  ---->  Na_2C_2O_4_{(aq)} + 2H_2O_{(l)}

The procedure for the ionic equation is

    H_2 C_2O_4 _{(aq)} + 2 Na^+ _{(aq)} + 2OH^-_{(aq)} ---->2Na^+ _{(aq)}  + C_2O_4^{2- }_{(aq)} + 2H_2O_{(l)}

Here Na^+ is the sodium ion

       OH^- is the hydroxide ion

       C_2O_4^{2-} is the oxalate ion

Note: The dissociation of oxalic equation is not complete because it is a weak acid

Looking at this equation we see that Na^+ is common on both sides of the equation so we cancel it out so the equation becomes

           H_2C_2O_4{(aq)} + 2OH^-_{(aq)} ----> C_2O_4^{2-}_{(aq)} + 2H_2O_{(l)}

How many moles of copper atoms are in 150g of copper metal
djyliett [7]
The answer to this question would be: 2.36 mol

To answer this question, you need to know the molecular weight of copper. Molecular weight determines how much the weight of 1 mol of a molecule has. Copper molecular weight about 63.5g/mol. Then, the amount of mol in 150g copper should be: 150g / (63.5g/mol)= 2.36 mol

Rusting of iron is a very common chemical reaction. It results in one form from Fe reacting with oxygen gas to produce iron (III
Vlada [557]

<u>Answer:</u> The given amount of iron reacts with 9.0 moles of O_2 and produce 6.0 moles of Fe_2O_3

<u>Explanation:</u>

We are given:

Moles of iron = 12.0 moles

The chemical equation for the rusting of iron follows:

4Fe+3O_2\rightarrow 2Fe_2O_3

  • <u>For oxygen gas:</u>

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

4 moles of iron reacts with 3 moles of oxygen gas

So, 12.0 moles of iron will react with = \frac{3}{4}\times 12.0=9.0mol of oxygen gas

  • <u>For iron (III) oxide:</u>

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

4 moles of iron produces 2 moles of iron (III) oxide

So, 12.0 moles of iron will produce = \frac{2}{4}\times 12.0=6.0mol of iron (III) oxide

Hence, the given amount of iron reacts with 9.0 moles of O_2 and produce 6.0 moles of Fe_2O_3

In a liquid-liquid extraction, how can you experimentally tell which layer is organic and which layer is aqueous? Can you always
zysi [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

Liquid-liquid extraction is a very useful method to separate components from a mixture. It consists of separating one or several substances dissolved in a solvent by transferring them to another solvent insoluble or partially insoluble in the first. The transfer of matter is achieved by direct contact between the two liquid phases.

For the extraction process, the solution is placed in a separating funnel, a water-immiscible organic solvent is added (ethyl ether is the most used), the solution with the compound to be separated, the funnel is covered and the funnel is top. Then it shakes. Depending on the solubilities and density, different layers are observed. The denser the compound, the more it will sink.

Since the organic compound is usually much more soluble in ether than in water, most of the organic compound will be dissolved in the ether phase (upper phase) and inorganic salts, which are not soluble in ether, will remain in the aqueous phase ( lower phase). Subsequently, by separating the separating funnel the two phases are separated, the organic phase is collected.

Occasionally, after stirring, the two immiscible liquids do not separate sharply, forming an emulsion in the intermediate zone. This is called the colloidal suspension of a liquid in another (system consisting of two or more phases, usually a liquid and another dispersed in the form of generally very fine solid particles). One of the reasons for the formation of an emulsion is when the two phases have similar densities. Then the relative density of the organic solvent and water cannot always be relied upon, although there are methods to facilitate the complete separation of the two phases.
