You are given an aqueous solution and are asked to analyze it for the presence (or absence) of Ag+(aq), Ca2+(aq), and/or Hg2+(aq

) ions. There are no other metal ions in the solution.  You add aqueous hydrochloric acid (HCl) to the solution, and nothing appears to happen.  You add aqueous sulfuric acid (H2SO4) to the solution, and a white precipitate forms.  You remove (via filtration) the white precipitate, and then add aqueous hydrogen sulfide (H2S) to the solution that remains. A black precipitate forms. Based on these observations, which ions are present in the original solution? (a) Ag+(aq), Ca2+(aq), and Hg2+(aq) (b) only Ag+(aq) and Hg2+(aq) (c) only Ca2+(aq) and Hg2+(aq) (d) only Ag+(aq) and Ca2+(aq) (e) only Hg2+(aq)

Answer:

(c) only Ca2+(aq) and Hg2+(aq)

Explanation:

  • In the first step, hydrochloric acid (HCl) is added to the solution. In this case the equilibrium that could take place is:

Ag⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq) ↔ AgCl(s)

But no precipitate was formed, so Ag⁺(aq) is absent.

  • By adding H₂SO₄(aq) the next equilibrium that could take place is:

Ca⁺²(aq) + SO₄⁻²(aq)  ↔ CaSO₄(s)

A white precipitate was formed, so Ca⁺² is present in the solution.

  • The following could take place after adding H₂S(aq):

Hg²⁺(aq) + S⁻² ↔ HgS(s)

A black precipitate formed, so Hg⁺² is present as well.

A calorie is another term for carbohydrate.TF
Hunter-Best [27]
<span>This is false. A carbohydrate is a carbon-based molecule that can be utilized by living organisms in order to produce energy. A calorie is a unit of energy often used to measure the amount of energy within food. Another example of energy unit is the Joule, more commonly used within physics.</span>

Sometimes you are given a measured amount of two or more reactants and asked how much product can be formed. Explain what steps
Westkost [7]

Explanation:

To solve this problem, follow these steps;

  • Obtain a balanced equation of the reaction and familiarize with the reactants and products.
  • Find the number of moles of the reacting species since they are the known matter in terms of quantity.
  • From the number of moles, determine the limiting reactant.
  • The limiting reactant is the one given in short supply.
  • Such reactant determines the extent of the reaction.
  • Compare the moles of this specie to that of the products using the balanced equation.
  • Obtain the mole of the desired product and find the mass or desired quantity.
  • simply work from the known specie to the unknown

If 16.5g of c6h14o2 are reacted vwith .499 mol of o2. How many moles of co2 should be produced
Fed [463]

Answer:

moles of carbon dioxide produced are 410.9 mol.

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of C₆H₁₄O₂ = 16.5 g

Moles of O₂ = 499 mol

Moles of CO₂ = ?

First of all we will write the balance chemical equation.

2C₆H₁₄O₂  +  17O₂  →   14CO₂  +  12H₂O

moles of C₆H₁₄O₂  = mass × molar mass

moles of C₆H₁₄O₂ =  16.5 g × 118 g/mol

moles of C₆H₁₄O₂ = 1947 mol

Now we compare the moles of CO₂ with moles of O₂ and C₆H₁₄O₂ from balance chemical equation.

                 O₂      :     CO₂

                 17       :      14

                499     :      14/17× 499 = 410.9 moles

          C₆H₁₄O₂   :   CO₂

                    2    :      14

                 1947 :     14/2× 1947 =  13629 moles

Oxygen will be limiting reactant so moles of carbon dioxide produced are 410.9 mol.

What is the relationship between relative size of an ion and its neutral atom and the charge on the ions?
Vsevolod [243]
<span>With the addition of an electron causing a negative charge, an ion is larger than normal but with loss of an atoms electron, the positive ion is smaller. if the atom loses an electron, the ion is relatively smaller than the atom and it becomes positive. if the atom gains an electron, the ion is relatively bigger than the atom and it becomes negative.</span>
