Convert 56.78 grams of Ca(OH)_2 to moles

Chemistry
1 answer:
ki77a [65]3 years ago
6 0

Answer: 0.77 mole

Explanation:

Atomic mass of Ca = 40g/mol

Atomic mass of O = 16g/mol

Atomic mass of H = 1

Therefore,

1 mole of Ca(OH)_2 contains

40+[16+1]2

= 40+34

=74g/mole

Hence,

1 mole of Ca(OH)_2 = 74g

Let x mole of Ca(OH)_2 = 56. 78

x = 56.78/74

x = 0.77 mole

Compare the distance between the molecules of a gas in a very small container with the distance between the molecules of the sam
kvv77 [185]
Gases take the shape of their container. When you have a large container, the spaces between molecules (particles) can be further apart than if they were close together. In small containers, the particles are forced to be closer together, or compressed.

Think of it like a pep rally in a gym v.s. a classroom. In the gym, everyone has a bit of wiggle room. With the same number of people in a classroom, everyone would need to be packed in there. This can also explain why a smaller pot over boils from steam before a larger one does, even if the amount of water is the same.

many reactive chemicals are stored in containers filled with Argon gas for safekeeping what about Argon's atomic structure makes
Ulleksa [173]

Answer:

Argon has 8 valence electrons making it non reactive.

Explanation:

Reactive chemicals are store in containers filled with Argon gas because the argon gas is non reactive. This is true because the argon gas has completely filled octet structure.

This can further be explained by writing the electronic configuration of argon.

The electronic configuration of argon is given below:

Ar (18) => 1s² 2s²2p⁶ 3s²3p⁶

Valence electron => 3s²3p⁶ = 2 + 6 = 8

From the above illustration, we can see that the outermost shell (i.e 3s²3p⁶) is having 8 electrons indicating that it is completely filled as the maximum number of electrons any shell can accommodate outside the first shell is 8 electrons. Thus, argon has 8 valence electrons ( i.e electrons in the outermost shell) and hence it is non reactive as the outermost shell is completely filled.

Why do atoms separate in molecules
N76 [4]

Answer:

Atoms form chemical bonds with other atoms when there's an electrostatic attraction between them. This attraction results from the properties and characteristics of the atoms' outermost electrons, which are known as valence electrons.
