  • <u>The reaction that takes place is:</u>

Hg(NO₃)₂(ac) + Na₂S(ac) → HgS(s) + 2Na⁺ + 2NO₃⁻

Now we calculate the moles of each reagent -using the molecular weights-, in order to determine the limiting reactant:

  • Moles of mercury (II) nitrate = 85.14 g * \frac{1mol}{324.7g}=0.2622 moles.
  • Moles of sodium sulfide = 14.334 g *\frac{1mol}{78.04g}=0.1837 moles.

Because the stoichiometric ratio between the reactants is 1:1, we compare the number of moles of each one upfront.

moles Hg(NO₃)₂ > moles Na₂S

<u>Thus Na₂S is the limiting reagent.</u>

So in order to find the mass of solid precipitate, we must calculate it using the moles of Na₂S:

0.1837 molNa_{2} S*\frac{1molHgS }{1molNa_{2}S}*\frac{232.66g}{1molHgS} =42.740g

The mass of the solid precipitate is 42.760 g.

  • In order to calculate the grams of the reactant in excess that will remain after the reaction, we convert the moles that reacted into mass and substract them from the original mass:

Mass of Hg(NO₃)₂ remaining = 85.14g-(0.1837molHg(NO_{3})_{2} * 324.7 g/mol)=25.49g

The mass of the remaning reactant in excess is 25.49 g.

  • Because we assume complete precipitation, there are no more Hg⁺² or S⁻² ions in solution. The moles of NO₃⁻ and Na⁺ in solution remain the same during the reaction, so the number is calculated from the number added in the reactant:

Hg⁺²: 0 mol

NO₃⁻: 0.2622molHg(NO_{3})_{2} *\frac{2molNO_{3}^{-}}{1molHg(NO_{3})_{2} *} =0.5244molNO_{3}^{-}

Na⁺: 0.1837molNa_{2} S*\frac{1molNa^{+}}{1molNa_{2}}=0.1837molNa^{+}

S²⁻: 0 mol

After substantial heating, 6.25 g of iron produced 18.00 g of a compound with chlorine. The empirical formula is:
babunello [35]

Answer:

Option A. FeCl3

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Mass of iron (Fe) = 6.25g

Mass of the compound formed = 18g

From the question, we were told that the compound formed contains chlorine. Therefore the mass of chlorine is obtained as follow

Mass of chlorine (Cl) = Mass of compound formed – Mass of iron.

Mass of chlorine (Cl) = 18 – 6.25

Mass of chlorine (Cl) = 11.75g

The compound therefore contains:

Iron (Fe) = 6.25g

Chlorine (Cl) = 11.75g

The empirical formula for the compound can be obtained by doing the following:

Step 1:

Divide by their molar mass

Fe = 6.25/56 = 0.112

Cl = 11.75/35.5 = 0.331

Step 2:

Divide by the smallest

Fe = 0.112/0.112 = 1

Cl = 0.331/0.112 = 3

The empirical formula for the compound is FeCl3

Isn’t urgent the first 3 will be marked BRAINIEST
bearhunter [10]

Answer:

Al2(SO4)3 and Mg(OH)2

Explanation:

1. Al has a charge of 3-, and SO4 of 2-

when you cross multiply the charges you get

Al2 and (SO4)3

*the reason theres a bracket around the sulfate ion is that the charge 3 is not for oxygen only, but the entire sulphate ion*

Hence, Al2(SO4)3

2. Mg has a charge of 2- and OH of 1-

again cross multiply

Mg (you dont need to add the 1) and (OH)2

again, the bracket around OH means the charge appiles to Oxygen AND hydrogen

hence, Mg(OH)2

slega [8]
Among formic acid (HCOOH ) and sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄), formic acid is the weak acid. Acidic strength of any acid is the tendency of that acid to loose proton. Among these two acids formic acid has a pKa value of 3.74 greater than that of sulfuric acid i.e. -10. Remember! Greater the pKa value of acid weaker is that acid and vice versa. Below I have drawn the Ionization of both acids to corresponding conjugate bases and protons. The structures below with charges are drawn in order to explain the reason for strength. As it is seen in charged structure of formic acid, there is one positive charge on carbon next to oxygen carrying proton. The electron density is shifted toward carbon as it is electron deficient and demands more electron hence, attracting electron density from oxygen and making the oxygen hydrogen bond more polar. While, in case of sulfuric acid it is depicted that Sulfur attached to oxygen containing proton has 2+ charge, means more electron deficient as compared to carbon of formic acid, hence, more electron demanding and strongly attracting electrons from oxygen and making the oxygen hydrogen bond very polar and highly ionizable.

A multivitamin tablet contains 40 milligrams of potassium. how many moles of potassium does each tablet contain?
katrin2010 [14]
Conversion of mole to grams
k in mole = 1 mole/ atomic mass
K in mole =1/ 39.0983 g/mole
                = 0.255765 g/mole
converting 40 grams of K
 K 40 grams x [ 1 mole/ 39.0983 grams] = 1.0230623 mole
There are 1.0230623 moles of K in 40 K of Potassium
