Answer:
A solution is a heterogeneous mixture
Explanation:
This statement that a solution is a heterogeneous mixture is completely and totally wrong.
A solution is a homogeneous mixture.
Homogeneous mixtures have their constituents existing in just one phase.
- It is a homogeneous mixture of solutes and solvents.
- In a solution, the solutes particles are distributed uniformly in the solvent.
- The solute is the substance that is dissolved to make the solution.
- Solutes are usually present in a small amount than the solvent.
- The solvent acts as the dispersing medium which allows the solute to go into the solution.
- The solute can be solid, liquid or gas.
Percentage Yield = (Actual Yield ÷ Theoretical Yield) × 100
The Actual Yield is given in the question as 21.2 g of NaCl. However, in order to find the theoretical yield, you have to write a balanced equation and use the mole ratio to calculate the mass of NaCl that would be produced.
Balanced Equation: CuCl + NaNO₃ → NaCl + CuNO₃
Moles of CuCl = Mass of CuCl ÷ Molar Mass of CuCl
= 31.0 g ÷ (63.5 + 35.5)g/mol
= 0.31 mol
the mole ratio of CuCl to NaCl is 1 : 1,
∴ if moles of CuCl = 0.31 mol,
then moles of NaCl = 0.31 mol
Now, Mass of NaCl = Moles of NaCl × Molar Mass of NaCl
= 0.31 mol × (23 + 35.5) g/mol
= 18.32 g
⇒ the THEORETICAL Yield of NaCl, in this case, is 18.32 g.
Now, since Percentage Yield = (Actual Yield ÷ Theoretical Yield) × 100
⇒ Percentage Yield of NaCl = (21.2g ÷ 18.32g) × 100
= 115.7 %
NOTE: Typically, the percentage yield of a reaction is less than 100%, however in a case where the mass of the substance is weighed with impurities, then that mass may be in excess of 100% as seen here.
Answer:
CuCl2 + 2NaNO3 - > Cu(NO3)2 + 2NaCl
It is a liquid because when you have a liquid, there is no definite shape. Therefore, this would be the answer because it takes the shape of its container.
Final answer: a. Liquid
A) Ca(OH)2 + CO2 —> CaCO3 + H2O
B) when Ca(OH)2 is reacted with CO2, the CaCO3 produced is a precipitate which turns the solution milky
