Zinc and magnesium metal each reacts with hydrochloric acid to make chloride salts of the respective metals, and hydrogen gas. a

11.20-g mixture of zinc and magnesium produces 0.6854 g of hydrogen gas upon being mixed with an excess of hydrochloric acid. determine the percent magnesium by mass in the original mixture.

M=11.20 g
m(H₂)=0.6854 g
M(H₂)=2.016 g/mol
M(Mg)=24.305 g/mol
M(Zn)=65.39 g/mol
w-?

m(Mg)=wm
m(Zn)=(1-w)m

Zn + 2HCl = ZnCl₂ + H₂
m₁(H₂)=M(H₂)m(Zn)/M(Zn)=M(H₂)(1-w)m/M(Zn)

Mg + 2HCl = MgCl₂ + H₂
m₂(H₂)=M(H₂)m(Mg)/M(Mg)=M(H₂)wm/M(Mg)

m(H₂)=m₁(H₂)+m₂(H₂)
m(H₂)=M(H₂)(1-w)m/M(Zn)+M(H₂)wm/M(Mg)=M(H₂)m{(1-w)/M(Zn)+w/M(Mg)}

m(H₂)=M(H₂)m{(1-w)/M(Zn)+w/M(Mg)}

(1-w)/M(Zn)+w/M(Mg)=m(H₂)/{M(H₂)m}

1/M(Zn)-w/M(Zn)+w/M(Mg)=m(H₂)/{M(H₂)m}

w(1/M(Mg)-1/M(Zn))=m(H₂)/{M(H₂)m}-1/M(Zn)

w=[m(H₂)/{M(H₂)m}-1/M(Zn)]/(1/M(Mg)-1/M(Zn))

w=0.583 (58.3%)

2) Find the volume that 2.0 moles of H2 will occupy at STP?
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

V = 44.85 L

Explanation:

Given data:

Volume of H₂ = ?

Number of moles of H₂ = 2.0 mol

Given temperature = 273.15 K

Given pressure = 1 atm

Solution:

Formula:

PV = nRT

P = Pressure

V = volume

n = number of moles

R = general gas constant = 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K  

T = temperature in kelvin

By putting values,

1 atm × V = 2.0 mol × 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K  × 273.15 K

V = 44.85 atm.L / 1 atm

V = 44.85 L

Because sucrose is hygroscopic, how should it be properly stored in a cupboard
kirza4 [7]

Sucrose is stored in dry and closed container, sealed properly.

Explanation:

  • Sucrose is nothing but the table sugar which we use daily in our life.
  • Sucrose is formed by the combination of fructose and glucose so, it called a disaccharide because two monosaccharides are converted to form sucrose.
  • It is a hygroscopic substance. The hygroscopic substance is which is easily vulnerable to water absorption. They tend to absorb water if they are being exposed to humid places.
  • Hence, it should be kept in a dry and close container, sealed properly.

point Deshawn ran the 400 m race(in a straight line) in 2 minutes. What is his distance and displacement ? Explain your answer b
san4es73 [151]

His distance and displacement are the same, which was 400 m

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Distance = 400 m

time = 2 min

Required

Distance and displacement

Solution

Distance is a scalar quantity that indicates the length of the trajectory that is traveled by an object within a certain interval. Distance has no direction, only has magnitude  

Can be simplified distance = totals traveled  

Displacement is a vector quantity that shows changes in the position of objects in a certain interval of time. Displacement has magnitude and direction  

Can be simplified displacement = distanced traveled from starting point to ending point  

From the definition above shows that the displacement and the distance that he traveled have the same value (magnitude), which is equal to 400 m

The value of the two will be different if he starts and finishes at the same point, then the displacement value is zero while the distance he has traveled is still 0
