How many moles of water will be produced when 15.0 g of calcium chloride dihydrate are heated ?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Vanyuwa [196]2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

0.204 mol

Explanation:

Step 1: Write the balanced equation for the heating of calcium chloride dihydrate

CaCl₂.2H₂O ⇒ CaCl₂ + 2H₂O

Step 2: Calculate the moles of calcium chloride dihydrate

The<em> molar mass of CaCl₂.2H₂O</em> is 147.01 g/mol. The moles corresponding to 15.0 g of CaCl₂.2H₂O are:

15.0g \times \frac{1mol}{147.01g} = 0.102 mol

Step 3: Establish the molar ratio of CaCl₂.2H₂O to H₂O

According to <em>the balanced equation</em>, the molar ratio of CaCl₂.2H₂O to H₂O is 1:2.

Step 4: Use the molar ratio to calculate the moles of water produced from 0.102 moles of calcium chloride dihydrate

0.102molCaCl_2.2H_2O \times \frac{2molH_2O}{1molCaCl_2.2H_2O} = 0.204molH_2O

Cu2 -&gt; Cu2+ is it getting oxidized?
KIM [24]

Answer:

Explanation:

Cu²⁺ + 2e⁻  →  Cu   ( copper gets reduced )

Cu  → Cu²⁺ + 2e⁻ (  copper gets oxidized )

Oxidation:

Oxidation involve the removal of electrons and oxidation state of atom of an element is increased.

Reduction:

Reduction involve the gain of electron and oxidation number is decreased.

Consider the following reactions.

4KI + 2CuCl₂  →   2CuI  + I₂  + 4KCl

the oxidation state of copper is changed from +2 to +1 so copper get reduced.

CO + H₂O   →  CO₂ + H₂

the oxidation state of carbon is +2 on reactant  side and on product side it becomes  +4 so carbon get oxidized.

Na₂CO₃ + H₃PO₄  →  Na₂HPO₄ + CO₂ + H₂O

The oxidation state of carbon on reactant side is +4. while on product side is  also +4 so it neither oxidized nor reduced.

H₂S + 2NaOH → Na₂S + 2H₂O

The oxidation sate of sulfur is -2 on reactant side and in product side it is also -2 so it neither oxidized nor reduced.

Kenya has a pile of salt on the counter. She uses a pinch of it for a meal. Which of the following physical properties of the sa
AlladinOne [14]
The following choices are all extensive properties, meaning they do not change with the amount of the substance. Although, 3 of the properties, namely, density, solubility and thermal conductivity are temperature-dependent. Since the problem did not mention of heating, let's assume Kenya just used it directly for her meal. Among the choices, I think shape would change. Once you place it in the meal, you can no longer pinpoint the salt because it's shape has been changed.

Compare the first ionization energy of sodium to that of potassium
stellarik [79]

Answer:

Sodium is higher than Potassium in thesame group

Explanation:

Sodium and potassium are the elements present in the first group of the periodic table. In group, atomic size increases from top to bottom this implies that even atomic radius increases. This causes less attraction force by nucleus on the electrons of outermost orbit of the atom and hence reduces the first ionisation energy, which is the energy required to remove the electron from the outermost orbit of an atom. So, as potassium is below sodium in the group, sodium has greater ionisation energy than potassium
