Answer:

1) 2Al + 6HCl ⟶ 2AlCl₃ + 3H₂

    Fe + 2HCl ⟶ FeCl₂ + H₂

2) Cu = 2.5 g; Al = 3.5 g; Fe = 4.0 g  

Explanation:

1) Possible reactions

2Al + 6HCl ⟶ 2AlCl₃ + 3H₂

Fe + 2HCl ⟶ FeCl₂ + H₂

2) Mass of each metal

a) Mass of Cu

The waste was the unreacted copper.

Mass of Cu = 2.5 g

b) Masses of Al and Fe

We have two relations :

Mass of Al + mass of Fe = 10 g - 2.5 g = 7.5 g

H₂ from Al + H₂ from Fe = 6.38 L at NTP

i) Calculate the moles of H₂

NTP is 20 °C and 1 atm.

\begin{array}{rcl}pV & = & n RT\\\text{1 atm} \times \text{6.38 L} & = & n \times 0.08206 \text{ L}\cdot\text{atm}\cdot\text{K}^{-1}\text{mol}^{-1} \times \text{293.15 K}\\6.38 & = & 24.06n \text{ mol}^{-1} \\n & = & \dfrac{6.38}{24.06 \text{ mol}^{-1} }\\\\ & = & \text{0.2652 mol}\\\end{array}

(ii) Solve the relationship

 Let x = mass of Al. Then

7.5 - x = mass of Fe

Moles of Al = x/27

Moles of Fe = (7.5 - x)/56

Moles of H₂ from Al = (3/2) × Moles of Al = (3/2) × (x/27) = x /18

Moles of H₂ from Fe = (1/1) × Moles of Fe = (7.5 - x)/56

∴ x/18 + (7.5 - x)/56 = 0.2652

    56x + 18(7.5 - x) = 267.3

      56x + 135 - 18x = 267.3

                        38x = 132.3

                            x = 3.5 g

Mass of Al = 3.5 g

Mass of Fe = 7.5 g - 3.5 g = 4.0 g

The masses of the metals are Cu = 2.5 g; Al = 3.5 g; Fe = 4.0 g

Please help.<br><br> Why does the temperature change when a powder is dissolved in water?
Schach [20]

Answer:

In order for the powder to dissolve, each powder molecule must separate from the other powder molecules and be surrounded by water molecules. This shift in arrangement either absorbs or releases energy depending on the situation. It is due to the exchange of energy that the temperature of the solution fluctuates.

The combination of potassium-sparing diuretics and salt substitutes can result in dangerously high blood levels of:
alisha [4.7K]

Answer:

b. potassium.  

Explanation:

Potassium-sparing diuretics and salt substitutes are diuretics that eliminate salt and water but save potassium. They act by inhibiting the conducting sodium channels in the collecting tubule, such as amiloride and triamterene, or by blocking aldosterone, such as spironolactone.

Concomitant use of potassium-sparing diuretics together with salt substitutes may result in dangerously high blood levels of serum potassium. For this reason, it is important to consult a physician before taking these substances at the same time to avoid potential problems with potassium accumulation.

An atom of a particular element is traveling at 1.00% of the speed of light. The de Broglie wavelength is found to be 3.31 × 10-
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

The given atom is of Ca.

Explanation:

Given data:

Speed of atom = 1% of speed of light

De-broglie wavelength = 3.31×10⁻³ pm (3.31×10⁻³ / 10¹² = 3.31×10⁻¹⁵ m)

What is element = ?

Solution:

Formula:

m = h/λv

m = mass of particle

h  = planks constant

v = speed of particle

λ = wavelength

Now we will put the values in formula.

m = h/λv

m = 6.63×10⁻³⁴kg. m².s⁻¹/3.31×10⁻¹⁵ m ×( 1/100)×3×10⁸ m/s

m = 6.63×10⁻³⁴kg. m².s⁻¹/ 0.099×10⁻⁷m²/s

m = 66.97×10⁻²⁷ Kg/atom

or

6.69×10⁻²⁶ Kg/atom

Now here we will use the Avogadro number.

The given problem will solve by using Avogadro number.

It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance.

The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.

For example,

18 g of water = 1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ molecules of water

Now in given problem,

6.69×10⁻²⁶ Kg/atom × 6.022 × 10²³ atoms/ mol × 1000 g/ 1kg

40.3×10⁻³×10³g/mol

40.3  g/mol

So the given atom is of Ca.

What must take place for copper metal to be oxidized?
Oxana [17]
 <span>The copper would go under oxidation since it will be losing two electrons. Copper starts out with an oxidation number of zero, but in order to balance the compound of CuO with the Oxygen having an oxidation number of -2, a positive 2 is required</span>
