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\%

The sun's energy would be circulated through convection. This is because whenever you see the word "circulate", there is a pretty good chance it has something to do with convection.

When electrons are filling energy levels, the lowest energy sublevels are occupied first. This is ____________.
Nimfa-mama [501]

When electrons are filling energy levels, the lowest energy sublevels are occupied first. This is Hund's rule.

Hund's rules state that:

Every orbital in a sublevel has to be singularly occupied before any other orbital is able to be doubly occupied.

All of the electrons in single occupied orbitals have to have the same spin to maximize the total spin.

What is the concentration of a solution with a volume of 660L that contains 33.4g of AlCO3?
lana [24]

Answer:

The concentration of the solution is 5.8168 × 10^{-4} mol.dm^{-3}

Explanation:

Here, we want to calculate the concentration of the solution.

The unit of this is mol/dm^3

So the first thing to do here is to calculate the number of moles of the solute present, which is the number of moles of AlCO3

The number of moles = mass/molar mass

molar mass of AlCO3 = 27 + 12 + 3(16)  = 27 + 12 + 48 = 87g/mol

Number of moles = 33.4/87 = 0.384 moles

This 0.384 moles is present in 660 L

x moles will be present in 1 dm^3

Recall 1 dm^3 = 1L

x * 660 = 0.384 * 1

x = 0.384/660 = 0.00058168 = 5.8168 * 10^-4 mol/dm^3
