A student is given 1.4583 g of pure CuO. To recover the Cu present in the compound, the dark powdery solid was dissolved in 15.0

mL of 6 M HCl and the solution was diluted to 50.0 mL with water. How many grams of Mg is needed to displace all of the copper (II) ions from the solution? Mg(s) + Cu2+(aq) --> Cu(s) + Mg2+(aq)

Answer:

0.4402 grams of Mg is needed to displace all of the copper (II) ions from the solution.

Explanation:

Moles of CuO = \frac{1.4583 g}{79.5 g/mol}=0.01834 mol

1 mole of CuO has 1 mole of Cu^{2+} ions, then 0.01834 molesof CuO will have 0.01834 moles of

Mg(s) + Cu^{2+}(aq)\rightarrow Cu(s) + Mg^{2+}(aq)

According to reaction , 1 mole of copper (II) ion reacts with 1 mole of magnesium solid .

Then 0.01834 moles of copper (II) ion will react with :

\frac{1}{1}\times 0.01834 mol=0.01834 mol of magnesium.

Mass of 0.01834 moles of magnesium :

0.01834 mol × 24 g/mol = 0.4402  g

0.4402 grams of Mg is needed to displace all of the copper (II) ions from the solution.

In a reaction, chlorine accepts an electron to form Cl-. What is true about the atomic size of the chlorine ion?
Lynna [10]

Answer is: The atomic size of the chlorine ion is larger than the size of the chlorine atom.

Covalent radii of chlorine atom (Cl) is 0.099 nm and ionic radii of chlorine anion (Cl⁻) is 0.181 nm.

Difference between an chlorine atom and chlorine anion is the number of electrons that surround the nucleus.

Chlorine atom has 17 electrons and chlorine anion has 18 electrons.

A mountain climber at the peak of a mountain has _____<br> energy.
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

Potential energy

Explanation:

A mountain climber at the peak of a mountain has potential energy.

The potential energy of a body is stored energy in a body. It is function of mass and position of the body.

 Mathematically;

       P.E  = mgh

m is the mass

g is the acceleration due to gravity

h is the height

A gas with a volume of 8 L at a temperature of 473K is switched to a new container with a temperature of 350K. If the pressure r
Digiron [165]

Answer:

The new  volume is 5.92 L,  which is approximately 6 L

Explanation:

As the gas temperature increases, the molecules move faster and take less time to reach the walls of the container. This means that the number of crashes per unit of time will be greater. That is, there will be an increase (for an instant) in the pressure inside the container and the volume will increase.

So Charles's Law is one of the gas laws that relates the volume and temperature of a certain amount of gas at constant pressure and says that:

  • If the temperature increases the volume increases
  • If the temperature decreases the volume decreases

Mathematically this is expressed by:

\frac{V}{T}=k

When you want to study two different states, an initial and a final one of a gas, this law is expressed by:

\frac{V1}{T1} =\frac{V2}{T2}

In this case:

  • V1: 8 L
  • T1: 473 K
  • V2: ?
  • T2: 350 K

Replacing:

\frac{8 L}{473K} =\frac{V2}{350K}

Solving:

V2=350K*\frac{8L}{473K}

V2=5.92 L

<u><em>The new  volume is 5.92 L,  which is approximately 6 L</em></u>
