Chemistry

Answer:

210.7~g~MgCO_3

Explanation:

We have to start with the <u>reaction</u>:

MgCO_3~->~MgO~+~CO_2

We have the same amount of atoms on both sides, so, we can continue. The next step is to find the <u>number of moles</u> that we have in the 110.0 g of carbon dioxide, to this, we have to know the <u>atomic mass of each atom</u>:

C: 12 g/mol

O: 16 g/mol

Mg: 23.3 g/mol

If we take into account the number of atoms in the formula, we can calculate the <u>molar mass</u> of carbon dioxide:

(12*1)+(16*2)=44~g/mol

In other words: 1~mol~CO_2=~44~g~CO_2. With this in mind, we can calculate the moles:

110~g~CO_2\frac{1~mol~CO_2}{44~g~CO_2}=25~mol~CO_2

Now, the <u>molar ratio</u> between carbon dioxide and magnesium carbonate is 1:1, so:

2.5~mol~CO_2=2.5~mol~MgCO_3

With the molar mass of MgCO_3 ((23.3*1)+(12*1)+(16*3)=84.3~g/mol. With this in mind, we can calculate the <u>grams of magnesium carbonate</u>:

2.5~mol~MgCO_3\frac{84.3~g~MgCO_3}{1~mol~MgCO_3}=210.7~g~MgCO_3

I hope it helps!

if an iron nail is placed in a glass of water the nail will sink. Is the density of iron smaller than or larger than the density
Gala2k [10]
It has  more density when it sinks because the water pushes away thats why people float they are less dense

The percent yield of a chemical reaction is valuable to many industries. Low percent yields can result in the loss of large amou
aev [14]

Using accurate measurements, using pure chemicals and performing the reaction under the most ideal conditions is important to get a valuable percent yield.

<h3>How we calculate the percent yield?</h3>

Percent yield of any chemical reaction is define as the ratios of the actual yield to the theoretical yield of the product and multiply by the 100.

To get the high percent yield or actual yield of any reaction, we have to perform the reaction under ideal condition because if we not use the standard condition then we get the low rate of reaction. Reactants should be present in the pure form as impurity make unwanted products and reduce the productivity of main product and accurate amount of reactants also important for the spontaneous reaction.

Hence, options (a), (b) & (c) are correct.

What mass of sodium chloride contains 4.59 x 10 24 formula units?
shtirl [24]
The term formula units means molecules.

Then, what you are looking for is the mass in 4.59*10^24  molecules.

The procedure involves to convert the 4.59 * 10^24 molecules into moles and use the molar mass of the sodium chloride.

1) Number of moles = 4.59 * 10^24 molecules / (6.02 * 10^23 molecules/mol) = 7.62 mol

2) Molar mass of NaCl = 22.99 g/mol + 35.45 g/mol = 58.44 g/mol

3) mass of NaCl = molar mass *  number of moles = 58.44 g/mol * 7.62 mol = 445.31 g of NaCl

Answer: 445.31 g of NaCl.

Write the concentration equilibrium constant expression for this reaction.
Akimi4 [234]

In a chemical reaction, the equilibrium constant refers to the value of its reaction quotient at chemical equilibrium, that is, a condition attained by a dynamic chemical system after adequate time has passed, and at which its composition has no measurable capacity to undergo any kind of further modification.  

The given reaction is: HCN (aq) + OH⁻ = CN⁻ (aq) + H2O (l)

The equilibrium constant = product of concentration of products / product of concentration of reactants

(Here, H2O is not considered as its concentration is very high)

So, Keq = [CN⁻] / [HCN] [OH⁻]
