In the chemical reaction below, calcium (Ca) and water (H2O) react to form calcium hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) and hydrogen gas (H2). Ca

() + 2H2O() → Ca(OH)2() + H2() Calcium and water are the reactants in this chemical reaction. The products are calcium hydroxide and hydrogen gas. Which statement correctly describes the total mass of the products when the reaction is complete?
A. The total mass of the products will be greater than the original mass of the reactants.
B. The total mass of the products will be less than the original mass of the reactants.
C. The total mass of the products will be equal to the original mass of the reactants.
D. The total mass of the products cannot be found from the original mass of the reactants.

Answer:

C.

Explanation:

The mass of the reactants should not change, in fact it would be equal because the only thing that changes is the form in which your products are in. The reactants will still have the same amount of mass from the products as no products were removed or added, the structure changed, the mass did not.

Magnesium (average atomic mass = 24.3050 amu) consists of three isotopes with masses 23.9850 amu, 24.9858 amu, and 25.9826 amu.
iris [78.8K]

Answer: The first isotope has a relative abundance of 79% and last isotope has a relative abundance of 11%

Explanation: Given that the average atomic mass(M) of magnesium

= 24.3050amu

Mass of first isotope (M1) = 23.9850amu

Mass of middle isotope (M2)=24.9858amu

Mass of last isotope(M3)= 25.9826amu

Total abundance = 1

Abundance of middle isotope = 0.10

Let abundance of first and last isotope be x and y respectively.

x+0.10+y =1

x = 0.90-y

M = M1 × % abundance of first isotope + M2 × % of middle isotope +M3 ×% of last isotope

24.03050= 23.985× x + 24.9858 ×0.10 + 25.9826×y

Substitute x= 0.90-y

Then

y = 0.11

Since y=0.11, then

x= 0.90-0.11

x=0.79

Therefore the relative abundance of the first isotope = 11% and the relative abundance of the last isotope = 79%

How many moles of ions would you expect in an aqueous solution containing one mole of chromium(III) chloride? Hint: write out th
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

Four  

Explanation:

AlCl₃(aq) ⟶ Al³⁺(aq) + 3Cl⁻(aq)

One mole of AlCl₃  produces 1 mol of Al³⁺ and 3 mol of Cl⁻.

That's four moles of ions.
