Identify some other substances (besides KCl) that might give a positive test for chloride upon addition of AgNO3. do you think i

t is reasonable to exclude these types of substances as contaminants that would give a false positive when you tested your reaction residue to verify that it is KCl?

Answer:

-The other substances that give a positive test with AgNO3 are other chlorides present, iodides and bromide.

-It is reasonable to exclude iodides and bromides but it is not reasonable to exclude other chlorides

Explanation:

In the qualitative determination of halogen ions, silver nitrate solution(AgNO3) is usually used. Now, various halide ions will give various colours of precipitate when mixed with with silver nitrate. For example, chlorides(Cl-) normally yield a white precipitate, bromides(Br-) normally yield a cream precipitate while iodides (I-) normally yield a yellow precipitate. Thus, all these ions or some of them may be present in the system.

With that being said, if other chlorides are present, they will also yield a white precipitate just like KCl leading to a false positive test for KCl. However, since other halogen ions yield precipitates of different colours, they don't lead to a false test for KCl. Thus, we can exclude other halides from the tendency to give us a false positive test for KCl but not other chlorides.

How many molecules of ammonia are formed in the following equation: N2+3H2→2NH3
Katena32 [7]

Answer:

  • <u>two molecules of ammonia are formed by the reaction of one nitrogen and three hydrogen molecules.</u>

Explanation:

The  balanced chemical equation provides information on:

  • <u>Reactants</u>: those are the compounds that appear of the left side of the equation, each with its chemical formula.

  • <u>Products</u>: those are the compounds that appear on the right side of the equation, again, each with its chemical formula.

  • <u>Ratio</u>: the coefficients of each compound (the number to the left of the chemical formula) represent the ratio of the number of molecules that react and are formed.

In the given equation you have:

  • Equation: N₂ + 3H₂ → 2NH₃

  • The coefficients are 1 for nitrogen, 3 for hydrogen, and 2 for ammonia. Hence, 2 molecules of ammonia are formed by the reaction of 1 molecule of nitrogen and 3 molecules of hydrogen.

What color is the start of the rainbow?
zheka24 [161]

Rainbows go in the order of ROYGBIV, which is an acronym for red, orange, yellow, green, blue, indigo, violet.

So, it would start off with red.

If you want to know why it starts off the rainbow, its because red has the longest wavelength, compared to the rest of the colors. (sorry I'm rambling, I got excited)

Hope this helps.

B. inference because she drew a conclusion based on evidence.

Because the evidence was that she heard the crashing sound, and then when she came into her room saw the broken window and baseball.

It was not an observation because she did not directly see the baseball going through the window
