  • <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

Which statement applies to electronegativity?
densk [106]

<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option A.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Electronegativity is defined as the tendency of an atom to attract the shared pair of electrons towards itself whenever a bond is formed.

This property increases as we move from left to right across a period because the number of charge on the nucleus gets increased and electrons are attracted more towards the nucleus.

This property decreases as we move from top to bottom in a group because the electrons get add up in the new shells which make them further away from the nucleus.

Thus, the correct answer is Option A.
