Water containing more than 3.0 grains of dissolved solids per gallon is considered to be hard [1 grain (gr) = 64.8 mg]. So, if a

kettle contains 18 gal of tap water, which is allowed to evaporate. The solid material left behind has a mass of 1.7 g. Is such tap water considered to be hard?

Answer:

  • <em><u>Yes, such tap water is considered to be hard.</u></em>

Explanation:

The <em>solid material left behind</em>, after the <em>18 gal of tap water</em> was <em>evaporated,</em> is the amount of dissolved solids in that quantity of water.

You must convert the amount in grams (1.7g) into grains:

  • 17.g × 1,000mg/g × 1 gr/64.8mg = 262.34 gr

That is in 18 gallons. Then, divide by 18 gal to obtain the number of grains dissolved per gallon:

  • 262.34gr / 18 gal ≈ 15 gr per gallon.

That is much greater than 3.0 grains per gallon; thus,<em> such tap water is considered to be hard.</em>

A solution of NaCl ( aq ) is added slowly to a solution of lead nitrate, Pb ( NO 3 ) 2 ( aq ) , until no further precipitation o
dezoksy [38]

Answer:

0.218 M of Pb(NO3)2

Explanation:

Equation of the reaction

Pb(NO3)2(aq) + 2NaCl(aq) --> PbCl2(s) + 2NaNO3(aq)

1 mole of Pb(NO3)2 reacts to precipitate 1 mole of PbCl2

Molar mass of PbCl2 = 207 + (35.5*2)

= 278 g/mol

Number of moles of PbCl2 precipitated = mass/molar mass

= 12.11/278

= 0.04356 mol

Since 0.04356 moles of PbCl2 was precipitated, therefore by stoichiometry; 0.04356 moles of Pb(NO3)2 reacted.

Molarity is defined as the number of moles of solute in 1 liter of solution.

Molarity = number of moles/volumes

= 0.04356/0.2

= 0.218 M

Campare and Conteast Physical and chemical properties.
I am Lyosha [343]

Answer:

Physical properties are changes in color, weight, mass, density, volume, whether it is freezing, tarnishing, boiling, etc. while chemical properties are changes in the compound of the object such as whether an object is/isn't flammable, affected by acid, it dissolves, ferments, rots, ignites in water, etc.

Explanation:

Physical property examples: a piece of steel is cut in half, a sugar cube is ground up into a powder, ice melts into water, clouds form in the sky, you mow the lawn, the water turned purple when you dropped red and blue dye in it, leaves grow in the spring, ethyl alcohol boils at 79° C, you cut apples up

Chemical property examples: pancakes cook on the griddle, fireworks explode in th sky, Alka-Seltzer gives off carbon dioxide when added to water, roasting a marshmellow, milk sours when left on the counter, burning wood in a bonfire, salt dissolves in water, food is digested in the stomach
