Answer:

a) 7.0.

b) Nickel sulfate hepta hydrate.

c) 280.83 g/mol.

d) 44.9%.

Explanation:

<u><em>a) What is the formula of the hydrate?</em></u>

The mass of the hydrated sample (NiSO₄.xH₂O) = 5.0 g,

The mass of the anhydrous salt (NiSO₄) = 2.755 g,

The mass of water = 5.0 g - 2.755 g = 2.245 g.

∴ no. of moles of water = mass/molar mass = (2.245 g)/(18.0 g/mol) = 0.1247 mol.

∴ no. of moles of anhydrous salt (NiSO₄) = mass/molar mass = (2.755 g)/(154.75 g/mol) = 0.0178 mol.

∴ water of crystallization in the sample (x) = no. of moles of water/no. of moles of anhydrous salt (NiSO₄) = (0.1247 mol)/(0.0178 mol) = 7.0.

<u><em>b) What is the full chemical name for the hydrate?</em></u>

The name of the salt (NiSO₄.7H₂O) is Nickel sulfate hepta hydrate.

<u><em>c) What is the molar mass of the hydrate? </em></u>

(NiSO₄.7H₂O)

The molar mass = molar mass of NiSO₄ + 7(molar mass of H₂O) = (154.75 g/mol) + 7(18.0 g/mol) = 280.83 g/mol.

<em><u>d) What is the mass % of water in the hydrate?</u></em>

The mass % of water = (mass of water)/(mass of hydrated sample) x 100 = (2.245 g)/(5.0 g) x 100 = 44.9%.

What reaction conditions most effectively conver a cabocxylic acid to a methly ester?
VLD [36.1K]

Answer:

Esterification reaction

Explanation:

When we have to go from an acid to an ester we can use the <u>esterification reaction</u>. On this reaction, an alcohol reacts with a carboxylic acid on acid medium to produce an ester and water. (See figure).  

In this case, we need the <u>methyl ester</u>, therefore we have to choose the <u>appropriate alcohol</u>, so we have to use the <u>methanol</u> as reactive if we have to produce the methyl ester.

A student Increases the temperature of a 417 cubic centimeter balloon from 278 K to 231 K. Assuming constant pressure what shoul
WITCHER [35]
Initial Conditions:
Volume= v1= 417 cm³
Temperature= T1 = 278 K
 
Final Conditions:
Temperature= T2 = 231K
Volume = v2 =?

Use the general gas equation;

                                        P1*v1/T1 =  P2*v2/T2
As, the temperature is constant;
 So,
                                               v1/T1 = v2/T2
                                              417/278 = v2/231
                                                  v2= 346.5 cm³

Equation for questions 1-4:
Karolina [17]

Answer:

5.625 moles of oxygen, O₂.

Explanation:

The balanced equation for the reaction is given below:

4Al + 3O₂ —> 2Al₂O₃

From the balanced equation above,

4 moles of Al reacted with 3 moles of O₂.

Finally, we shall determine the number of mole of O₂ required to react with 7.5 moles of aluminum, Al. This can be obtained as illustrated below:

From the balanced equation above,

4 moles of Al reacted with 3 moles of O₂.

Therefore, 7.5 moles of Al will react with = (7.5 × 3)/4 = 5.625 moles of O₂.

Thus, 5.625 moles of O₂ is needed for the reaction.
