Sindrei [870]3 years ago

Answer:

Pb(NO3)2+2NaCl \to PbCl2+NaNO3

Explanation:

Lead(II) nitrate is $Pb(NO_{3})_{2}$

Sodium Chloride is $NaCl$

This is a double displacement reaction. Hence anions or cations of both the compounds are displaced to form the products.

$Pb^{+2}$ and $Cl^{-}$ combine to form PbCl_{2}$

$Na^{+} and \,NO_{3}^{-} combine\, to\, form\, NaNO_{3}$

Therefore the balanced equation is

$Pb(NO_{3})_{2}(aq)+2NaCl(aq) \to PbCl_{2}(s)+2NaNO_{3}(aq)$

Molten gallium reacts with arsenic to form the semiconductor, gallium arsenide, GaAs, used in light-emitting diodes and solar ce

Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

a) 1.2g of arsenic b) 0.64g of arsenic c) 3.481g of gallium d) 3.806g of gallium e) 2.61g arsenic

Explanation:

The balanced equation is:

Ga + As = GaAs, 1:1 mole ratio

a) mass (gallium)/ molar mass of Ga = 4/ 69.723 = 0.0574mol

Mass (arsenic)/ molar mass of As = 5.5/74.9216 = 0.0734, subtracting the moles from each other (knowing already that the ratio is 1:1), arsenic is in excess by 1.2g

b) repeating the procedure (changing the values)

It will be 0.0574 to 0.06593

Arsenic is in excess by 0.00854

0.00854* mass of arsenic (such must be done for the first remaining mole) = 0.64g

c) the mole ratio is 0.0574: 0.00747

Gallium is in excess by 0.05

Mass of excess gallium = 0.05* 69.723 = 3.481g

d) using the mass given, the new ratio is

0.128: 0.0734

Gallium is in excess by 0.054mol

Mass of excess gallium = 0.054*69.723 = 3.806g

e) using the mass again, the new ratio is 0.0574: 0.02,

Gallium is in excess by 0.0374*69.723 = 2.61g

What is the mole fraction of O2O2 in a mixture of 15.1 gg of O2O2, 8.19 gg of N2N2, and 2.46 gg of H2H2

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

Mole fraction O₂= 0.43

Explanation:

Mole fraction is the moles of gas/ total moles.

Let's determine the moles of each:

Moles O₂ → 15.1 g / 16 g/mol = 0.94

Moles N₂ → 8.19 g / 14 g/mol = 0.013

Moles H₂ → 2.46 / 2 g/mol = 1.23

Total moles = 2.183

Mole fraction O₂= 0.94 / 2.183 → 0.43

Explain how fluorine and aluminum would exchange valence electrons to form an ionic compound.

o-na [289]

Answer :

Explanation :

The aluminium and fluorine react to give ionic compound aluminium fluoride.

Aluminium has 1 valence electrons in their shell and fluorine has 7 valence electrons in their shell.

For the complete octet, both aluminium and fluorine exchange valence electrons to form an ionic compound.

The aluminium donates its three valence electrons to three fluorine atoms and they form one $Al^{3+}$ and three $F^-$ ions.

Electron transfer image is shown below.
