torisob [31]

Pieces of copper, silver and gold are dropped into a solution of iron sulphate. The piece that will get a coating of copper is. ... Therefore, none of the three metals can displace iron from its salt solution. Hence, we observe that no reaction takes place and none of the pieces get coated.

What is the molar mass of (NH), CO?<br> 138g<br> 788<br> 968<br> 1448
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

The molar mass of (NH_{4})_{2}CO_{3} is 96.8 g/mol

Explanation:

The given molecular formula - (NH_{4})_{2}CO_{3}

Individual molar masses of each element in the compound is as follows.

Molar mass of nitrogen - 14.01 g/mol

Molar mass of of hydrogen = 1.008g/mol

Molar mass of carbon = 12.01 g/mol

Molar mass of oxygen =16.00 g/mol

Molar mass of (NH_{4})_{2}CO_{3} is

2\times[1(14.01)+4(1.008)]+1(12.01)+3(16.00)= 96.8g/mol

Therefore,The molar mass of (NH_{4})_{2}CO_{3} is 96.8 g/mol

Write a hypothesis about the pH level of common household solutions based on what you know about their physical and chemical pro
docker41 [41]

If pH is less than seven (pH<7), solution is acidic.

If pH is equal seven (pH = 7), solution is neutral.  

If pH is greater than seven (pH > 7), solution is basic.  

Some examples:

1) Acidic - gastric juices pH 1, lemon juice pH 2.2, tomato juice pH 4.

2) Neutral - salt solution pH 7.

3) Alkaline - baking soda pH 9, bleach pH 13.

pH is a numeric scale used to specify the acidity or basicity of an aqueous solution.
