Any substance that is not a mixture is a pure substance. When colored watercolors are applied to paper, sometimes the colors in the ink separate. This technique is called chromatography

Suppose you have a mixture of solid mg(oh)2 and baso4, how do you separate the mixture

Step2247 [10]

This separation technique is a 4-step procedure. First, add H₂SO₄ to the solution. Because of common ion effect, BaSO₄ will not react, only Mg(OH)₂.

Mg(OH)₂ + H₂SO₄ → MgSO₄ + 2 H₂O

The aqueous solution will now contain MgSO₄ and BaSO₄. Unlike BaSO₄, MgSO₄ is soluble in water. So, you filter out the solution. You can set aside the BaSO₄ on the filter paper. To retrieve Mg(OH)₂, add NaOH.

MgSO₄ + 2 NaOH = Mg(OH)₂ + Na₂SO₄

Na₂SO₄ is soluble in water, while Mg(OH)₂ is not. Filter this solution again. The Mg(OH)₂ is retrieved in solid form on the filter paper.

How many moles of Carbon are in 3.06 g of Carbon

natta225 [31]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 0.255 \ mol \ C }}$

Explanation:

If we want to convert from grams to moles, the molar mass is used. This is the mass of 1 mole. They are found on the Periodic Table as the atomic masses, but the units are grams per mole (g/mol) instead of atomic mass units (amu).

Look up the molar mass of carbon.

Carbon (C): 12.011 g/mol

Set up a ratio using the molar mass.

$\frac {12.011 \ g \ C}{ 1 \ mol \ C}$

Since we are converting 3.06 grams to moles, we multiply by that value.

$3.06 \ g \ C*\frac {12.011 \ g \ C}{ 1 \ mol \ C}$

Flip the ratio. This way, the ratio is still equivalent, but the units of grams of carbon cancel.

$3.06 \ g \ C* \frac{1 \ mol \ C}{12.011 \ g\ C}$

$3.06 * \frac{1 \ mol \ C}{12.011 }$

$\frac {3.06}{12.011 } \ mol \ C$

$0.25476646 \ mol \ C$

The original measurement of grams (3.06) has 3 significant figures, so our answer must have the same. For the number we calculated, that is the thousandth place.
