The three beams on a triple beam balance all are different. Each beam should have a differnet unit of measurement. For example, one beam may count in 100's and the other beam may count in 10's and the last beam may count in 1's.
Answer:
H^+(aq) + OH^-(aq) —> H2O(l)
Explanation:
We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction.
2HCl(aq) + Ca(OH)2(aq) —> CaCl2(aq) + 2H2O(l)
Ca(OH)2 is a strong base and will dissociates as follow:
Ca(OH)2(aq) —> Ca^2+(aq) + 2OH^-(aq)
HCl is a strong acid and will dissociates as follow:
HCl(aq) —> H^+(aq) + Cl^-(aq)
Thus, In solution a double displacement reaction occurs as shown below:
2H^+(aq) + 2Cl^-(aq) + Ca^2+(aq) + 2OH^-(aq) —> Ca^2+(aq) + 2Cl^-(aq) + 2H2O(l)
To get the net ionic equation, cancel out Ca^2+ and 2Cl^-
2H^+(aq) + 2OH^-(aq) —> 2H2O(l)
H^+(aq) + OH^-(aq) —> H2O(l)
The masses can be found by substractions:
- Mass of CaSO₄.H2O (hydrate):
16.05 g - 13.56 g = 2.49 g
15.07 g - 13.56 g = 1.51 g
- The mass of water is equal to the difference between the mass of the hydrate and the mass of the anhydrate:
2.49 g - 1.51 g = 0.98 g
- The percent of water is found by the formula:
massWater ÷ massHydrate * 100%
0.98 g ÷ 2.49 g * 100% = 39.36%
- The mole of water is calculated using water's molecular weight (18g/mol):
0.98 g ÷ 18 g/mol = 0.054 mol water
- A similar procedure is made for the mole of salt (CaSO₄ = 136.14 g/mol)
1.51 g ÷ 136.14 g/mol = 0.011 mol CaSO₄
- The ratio of mole of water to mole of anhydrate is:
0.054 mol water / 0.011 mol CaSO₄ = 0.49
In other words the molecular formula for the hydrate salt is CaSO₄·0.5H₂O
Where does most of the mass of the universe come from? In ordinary matter, most of the mass is contained in atoms, and the majority of the mass of an atom resides in the nucleus, made of protons and neutrons. Protons and neutrons are each made of three quarks.
