To measure the amount of nickel in some industrial waste fluid, an analytical chemist adds 0.110 M sodium hydroxide (NaOH) solut

ion to a 25.0 g sample of the fluid and collects the solid nickel(I) hydroxide (Ni (OH2) product. When no more Ni(OH)2 is produced, he filters, washes and weighs it, and finds that 343. mg has been produced The balanced chemical equation for the reaction is: Ni2+(aq) + 2NaOH(aq) Ni(OH)2(s) + 2 Na.

Answer:

This is a precipitation reaction in which Ni(OH)₂ precipitates.

8.68%

Explanation:

Let's consider the following reaction.

Ni²⁺(aq) + 2 NaOH(aq) ⇄ Ni(OH)₂(s) + 2 Na⁺(aq)

This is a precipitation reaction in which Ni(OH)₂ precipitates.

We can establish the following relations:

  • The molar mass of Ni(OH)₂ is 92.71 g/mol.
  • 1 mole of Ni(OH)₂ is produced per 1 mole of Ni²⁺.
  • The molar mass of Ni²⁺ is 58.69 g/mol.

When 343 mg (0.343 g) of Ni(OH)₂ are collected, the mass of Ni²⁺ that reacted is:

0.343gNi(OH)_{2}.\frac{1molNi(OH)_{2}}{92.71gNi(OH)_{2}} .\frac{1molNi^{2+} }{1molNi(OH)_{2}} . \frac{58.69gNi^{2+}}{1molNi^{2+}} =0.217gNi^{2+}

The mass percent of nickel in the 25.0g-sample is:

\frac{0.217g}{2.50g}.100\%=8.68\%

CH3CH2OH + 302 → 2C02 + 3H2O
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

Oxygen Gas

Explanation:

The balanced equation shows us the reactant ratio of the reaction.

This means that for every one mole of CH3CH2OH, we need 3 moles of O2 to react with it. Because we need more O2, (3x as much) than ethanol and we have the same given amount (1 mole of each), the oxygen will be the limiting reagent. (1 mole of oxygen would only require 1/3 moles of ethanol to react).

Hope this helped!

If the atomic weight/atomic mass is 0 what does it mean?
Gwar [14]

Answer: Neutron matter is equivalent to a chemical element with atomic number 0, which is to say that it is equivalent to a species of atoms having no protons in their atomic nuclei. Neutron matter decays quickly into hydrogen. Neutron matter has no electronic structure on account of its total lack of electrons.
