Answer:

Explanation:

The standard reduction potentials are

Au³⁺(aq ) + 3e⁻ ⟶ Au(s); 1.42

Hg²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻ ⟶ Hg(l); 0.85

Ag⁺(aq) + e⁻ ⟶ Ag(s); 0.80

Cu²⁺(aq) + 2e⁻ ⟶ Cu(s); 0.34

Mg2+(aq) + 2e- ⟶ Mg(s); -2.38

The more negative the standard reduction potential, the stronger the metal is as a reducing agent.

Mg is the only metal with a standard reduction potential lower than that of Cu, so

Only Mg will react spontaneously with Cu²⁺.

Mrrafil [7]

Answer:

0.4694 moles of CrCl₃

Explanation:

The balanced equation is:

Cr₂O₃(s) + 3CCl₄(l) → 2CrCl₃(s) + 3COCl₂(aq)

The stoichiometry of the equation is how much moles of the substances must react to form the products, and it's represented by the coefficients of the balanced equation. So, 1 mol of Cr₂O₃ must react with 3 moles of CCl₄ to form 2 moles of CrCl₃ and 3 moles of COCl₂.

The stoichiometry calculus must be on a moles basis. The compounds of interest are Cr₂O₃ and CrCl₃. The molar masses of the elements are:

MCr = 52 g/mol

MCl = 35.5 g/mol

MO = 16 g/mol

So, the molar mass of the Cr₂O₃ is = 2x52 + 3x35.5 = 210.5 g/mol.

The number of moles is the mass divided by the molar mass, so:

n = 49.4/210.5 = 0.2347 mol of Cr₂O₃.

For the stoichiometry:

1 mol of Cr₂O₃ ------------------- 2 moles of CrCl₃

0.2347 mol of Cr₂O₃----------- x

By a simple direct three rule:

x = 0.4694 moles of CrCl₃

A 1.68 g sample of water is injected into a closed evacuated 5.3 liter flask at 65°C. What percent (by mass) of the water will b

Angelina_Jolie [31]

Answer:

50.4 % of the water will be vapor

Explanation:

<u>Step 1:</u> Data given

Mass of water = 1.68 grams

volume of the flask = 5.3 L

Temperature = 65°C

Vapor pressure of water at 65°C = 187.5 mmHg = 0.2467 atm

<u>Step 2:</u> Calculate moles of H2O

p*V=n*R*T

⇒ p = the pressure of water = 0.2467 atm

⇒ V = the volume of the flask = 5.3 L

⇒ n = moles of water

⇒ R = gas constant = 0.08206 L*atm/ K*mol

⇒ T = the temperature = 65°C = 338 Kelvin

n = (p*V)/(R*T)

n = (0.2467 * 5.3) /(0.08206* 338)

n = 0.047 moles

<u>Step 3:</u> Calculate mass of water

Mass of water = moles of water * molar mass of water

Mass of water = 0.047 moles *18.02 g/mol

Mass of water = 0.84694 grams

<u>Step 4:</u> Calculate the percent of water vaporized

% = (0.84694 grams/1.68 grams) *100%

% = 50.4%

50.4 % of the water will be vapor
