Answer:

Explanation:

Mixtures are impure substances with the following properties:

Their composition is indefinite i.e they consisit of two or more elements or compounds in any proportion by mass.
Their constituents retains their identity i.e physical properties are retained.
They can easily be seperated by physical methods into their constituents.

It is important to seperate materials from mixtures because mixtures do not undergo chemical changes when they combine. This implies that they can easily be seperated using simple seperation techniques with the constituents still retaining their properties.

When 0.200 grams of Al reacts with 15.00 mL of a 0.500 M copper(II) chloride solution, how many moles of solid Cu would be produ

Naddik [55]

When The balanced equation is:
2Al + 3CuCl2 ⇒3 Cu + 2AlCl3
So, we want to find the limiting reactant:
1- no. of moles of 2Al = MV/n = (Wt * V )/ (M.Wt*n*V) = Wt / (M.Wt *n)

where M= molarity, V= volume per liter and n = number of moles in the balanced equation.
by substitute:
∴ no. of moles of 2Al = 0.2 / (26.98 * 2)= 0.003706 moles.
2- no.of moles of 3CuCl2= M*v / n = (0.5*(15/1000)) / 3= 0.0025 moles.
So, CuCl2 is determining the no.of moles of the products.
∴The no. of moles of 3Cu = 0.0025 moles.
∴The no.of moles of Cu= 3*0.0025= 0.0075 moles.
and ∵ amount of weight (g)= no.of moles * M.Wt = 0.0075 * M.wt of Cu
= 0.0075 * 63.546 =0.477 g

What conversion factor is present in almost all stoichiometry calculations?

luda_lava [24]

<h3><u>Answer;</u></h3>

Molar mass

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>

Stoichiometry involves the study of quantitative relationships between the amounts of reactants used and products formed by a chemical reaction.
A conversion factor is a ratio of coefficients found in a balanced reaction, which can be used to inter-convert the amount of products and reactants.
Molar ratios, or conversion factors, identify the number of moles of each reactant needed to form a certain number of moles of each product.
