When calcium metal is placed in water, hydrogen gas bubbles out, leaving a highly alkaline (basic) solution. Write the balanced

chemical equation for this reaction. Phases are optional. Do not write an ionic equation (i.e., the answer should not show any charges).

Answer:

Ca (s) + 2H₂O (l) →  Ca(OH)₂ (aq)  +  H₂ (g)

Explanation:

When solid calcium reacts with water, it produces the correspondent hydroxid and hydrogen gas.

The hydroxid which is produced, is the calcium hydroxid which is a strong base, that's why you talk about a highly alkaline solution.

Ca (s) + 2H₂O (l) →  Ca(OH)₂ (aq)  +  H₂ (g)

Calcium hydroxide is a strong base, that dissociates in water, as this:

Ca(OH)₂  →  Ca²⁺ (aq)  + 2OH⁻ (aq)

It's a basic solution,  is providing hydroxyl ions to the medium

How many grams of NaCl are in 3.5 mol of NaCl? Also, how many moles of NaCl are in 150 g of NaCl?​
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

204.5505 grams

2.5666 moles

Explanation:

For the first question, multiply 3.5 (# of moles) by 58.443 (g/mol for NaCl).

58.443 * 3.5

<em>I'll distribute 3.5 into 58.443.</em>

(3.5 * 50) + (3.5 * 8) + (3.5 * 0.4) + (3.5 * 0.04) + (3.5 * 0.003)

175 + 28 + 1.4 + 0.14 + 0.0105

203 + 1.4 + 0.14 + 0.0105

204.4 + 0.14 + 0.0105

204.54 + 0.0105

204.5505 grams

There are 204.5505 grams in 3.5 moles of NaCl.

For the second question, divide 150 (# of grams) by 58.443 (g/mol for NaCl). I'll convert both into fractions.

150/1 * 1000/58443

150000/58443

2.56660336 moles

2.5666 moles (rounded to 4 places to keep consistency with the first answer) are in 150 grams of NaCl.
