Certain metal oxide has the formula MO where M denotes the metal. A 73.35−g sample of the compound is strongly heated in an atmo

sphere of hydrogen to remove oxygen as water molecules. At the end, 64.21 g of the metal is left over. If O has an atomic mass of 16.00 amu, calculate the atomic mass of M and identify the element.

Answer:

atomic mass 112.4 and Cadmium (Cd)

Explanation:

You have 73.35 g of MO.

After the reaction the O is removed and you only have M which the mass is 64.21 g.

With that you can calculate the mass of O removed:

Mass of O = 9.14 g

Mass = AM * moles ; (AM : Atomic Mass)

9.14 = 16 * moles

moles = 9.14 / 16

moles = 0.57125

The formula of the metal oxide is MO, meaning it has 1 mole of M per mole of O. 73.35 had 0.57125 moles of O, then it also had 0.57125 moles of M, and the remaining mass of 64.21 g represents those moles

Mass = AM * moles ; (AM : Atomic Mass)

64.21 = AM * 0.57125

AM = 64.21/0.57125 = 112.4 amu

The metal with an atomic mass of 112.4 is Cadmium (Cd), therefore the metal oxide is CdO

A solution has a pOH of 8.7 so what is the pH of the solution? Is the solution acidic, basic, or neutral?
RSB [31]
PH + pOH = 14

pH = 14 - pOH

pH = 14 - 8.7

pH = 5,3

This solution is <u>acidic</u>.

If pH<7 - acidic
If pH=7 - neutral
If pH>7 - basic

1. Provide a definition of an Arrhenius acid and an Arrhenius base. What has science determined to be the limitations of these d
lara [203]

Answer:

See Explanation ( = same answer for earlier question)

Explanation:

The Arrhenius acid-base theory defines an acid as a compound which when added into water increases the hydronium ion (H₃O⁺) concentration and the base as a compound which when added into water increases the hydroxide (OH⁻) ion concentration. As such, an acid-base reaction is limited to proton transfer to only OH⁻ ions forming water. Such would imply that all acid-base reactions produce water only in addition to a salt. This is not always the case as conjugate base anions for many substances can receive proton transfer.

Example: The reaction HOAc + NaCN => HCN + OAc-  will occur in aqueous media because the proton (H⁺) on acetic acid (HOAc) will transfer to the cyanate ion forming hydrocyanic acid (HCN). Such occurs because the CN⁻ ion is a stronger conjugate base than the acetate ion (OAc⁻) and forms the more stable weak acid.  Such is the basis of the Bronsted-Lowry Acid-Base system and states that an acid (proton donor) will transfer its ionizable hydrogen to a conjugate base (proton acceptor) if the transfer forms a weaker acid.
