Answer : The molar mass of the unknown gas will be 79.7 g/mol


Explanation : To solve this question we can use graham's law;


Now we can use nitrogen as the gas number 2, which travels faster than gas 1;

So, 167 / 99 = 1.687 So the nitrogen gas is 1.687 times faster that the unknown gas 1

We can compare the rates of both the gases;


So here, Rate of gas 2 / Rate of gas 1 = \sqrt{(molar mass 1 / molar mass 2)}

Now, 1.687 = square root [\sqrt{(molar mass 1) / (28.01 g/mol N_{2})} ]


When we square both the sides we get;


2.845 = (molar mass 1) / (28.01 g/mol N2)


On rearranging, we get,


2.845 X (28.01 g/mol N2) = Molar mass 1

So the molar mass of unknown gas will be = 79.7 g/mol

stepladder [879]

Answer:

7700000000

Explanation:

so 7.7 x 10 to the power of 9 is in standard form

to put it into a number you just need to times it by 1000000000

however your answer will only have 8 zeros because of the decimal point

What’s the fastest way to balance chemical equations
Anon25 [30]

Hey there!

The best way to balance chemical equations is to first start by balancing polyatomic ions such as OH and SO₄.

Next, balance other elements, but save elements that are by themselves for last, such as H₂ or Fe. Once you balance everything else you can do the ones by themselves, it's much easier.

Hope this helps!

How can you tell if a chemical equation is balanced
k0ka [10]

Answer:

A chemical equation is balanced when the number of each kind of atom is the same on both sides of the reaction.

Explanation:

    The law of conservation of matter (except in nuclear reactions) indicates that atoms can neither be created or destroyed.

    The number of atoms that are in the  reactants must be the same as the number of the atoms that are in the product.

    The number and types of molecules can (and will) change. The atoms that make up the molecules are rearranged but the number and kinds of atoms stay the same.

A chemist prepares a solution of magnesium chloride MgCl2 by measuring out 49.mg of MgCl2 into a 100.mL volumetric flask and fil
Flura [38]

Answer:  Molarity of Cl^- anions in the chemist's solution is 0.0104 M

Explanation:

Molarity : It is defined as the number of moles of solute present per liter of the solution.

Formula used :

Molarity=\frac{n\times 1000}{V_s}

where,

n= moles of solute

Moles=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}=\frac{0.049g}{95g/mol}=5.2\times 10^{-4}moles  

V_s = volume of solution in ml = 100 ml

Now put all the given values in the formula of molarity, we get

Molarity=\frac{5.2\times 10^{-4}moles\times 1000}{100ml}=5.2\times 10^{-3}mole/L

Therefore, the molarity of solution will be 5.2\times 10^{-3}mole/L

MgCl_2\rightarrow Mg^{2+}+2Cl^-

As 1 mole of MgCl_2 gives 2 moles of Cl^-

Thus 5.2\times 10^{-3}  moles of MgCl_2 gives =\frac{2}{1}\times 5.2\times 10^{-3}=0.0104

Thus the molarity of Cl^- anions in the chemist's solution is 0.0104 M
