The process by which rocks are broken down to form soil is called weathering. It is divided into 3 types, physical, chemical and biological weathering.
Physical weathering is the process by which rocks are broken down as a result of physical agitations. It is also called mechanical weathering and during this process the chemical nature of the rock is not affected. Biological weathering has to do with the weakening of rocks and their eventual disintegration as a result of plants and animals activities. Chemical weathering refers to the disintegration of the rock particles as a result of chemical reactions.

An unsaturated solution is formed when 80 grams of a salt is dissolved in 100 grams of water at 40. This salt could be ?

LekaFEV [45]

A simple way to go about this is that we look at the solubility curve, on the x axis we first look at the temperature and then the corresponding value of solute/100g H2O on the y axis, from the 4 curves above only NaNO3 has a curve that can accommodate 80g of salt at 40 without being Saturated since at 40 degrees it can accommodate 105g of salt to become completely Saturated.

If 20.0 g of NaOH is added to 0.750 L of 1.00 M Cd(NO₃)₂, how many grams of Cd(OH)₂ will be formed in the following precipitatio

bulgar [2K]

Answer:

$m_{Cd(OH)_2}=36.6 gCd(OH)_2$

Explanation:

Hello.

In this case, for the given chemical reaction, in order to compute the grams of cadmium hydroxide that would be yielded, we must first identify the limiting reactant by computing the yielded moles of that same product, by 20.0 grams of NaOH (molar mass = 40 g/mol) and by 0.750 L of the 1.00-M solution of cadmium nitrate as shown below considering the 1:2:1 mole ratios respectively:

$n_{Cd(OH)_2}^{by\ NaOH}=20.0gNaOH*\frac{1molNaOH}{40gNaOH} *\frac{1molCd(OH)_2}{2molNaOH} =0.25molCd(OH)_2\\\\n_{Cd(OH)_2}^{by\ Cd(NO_3)_2}=0.750L*1.00\frac{molCd(NO_3)_2}{L}*\frac{1molCd(OH)_2}{1molCd(NO_3)_2} =0.75molCd(OH)_2$

Thus, since 20.0 grams of NaOH yielded less of moles of cadmium hydroxide, NaOH is the limiting reactant, therefore the mass of cadmium hydroxide (molar mass = 146.4 g/mol) is:

$m_{Cd(OH)_2}=0.25molCd(OH)_2*\frac{146.4gCd(OH)_2}{1molCd(OH)_2} \\\\m_{Cd(OH)_2}=36.6 gCd(OH)_2$

Best regards.
