Answer: The correct answer is Option 4.

Explanation:

To calculate volume of a substance, we use the equation:

$\text{Density of a substance}=\frac{\text{Mass of a substance}}{\text{Volume of a substance}}$

We are given:

Mass of sample = 100.5 g

Volume of sample = $7.42cm^3$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Density of sample}=\frac{100.5g}{7.42cm^3}\\\\\text{Density of sample}=13.6g/cm^3$

The known density of the given metals are:

Density of lead = $11.34g/cm^3$

Density of iron = $7.87g/cm^3$

Density of gold = $19.32g/cm^3$

Density of mercury = $13.6g/cm^3$

The calculated density matches the given density of mercury.

Hence, the correct answer is Option 4.

How many grams of carbon (C) would be present in carbon monoxide (CO) that contains 2.666 grams of oxygen (O)? For example if th

oee [108]

Given :

Mass of oxygen containing carbon monoxide (CO) is 2.666 gram .

To Find :

How many grams of carbon (C) would be present in carbon monoxide (CO) that contains 2.666 grams of oxygen (O) .

Solution :

By law of constant composition , a given chemical compound always contains its component elements in fixed ratio (by mass) and does not depend on its source and method of preparation.

So , volume of solution does not matter .

Moles of oxygen , $n=\dfrac{2.666}{16}=0.167\ mole$ .

Now , molecule of CO contains 1 mole of C .

So , moles of C is also 0.167 mole .

Mass of carbon , $m=12\times 0.167=2\ g$ .

Therefore , mass of carbon is 2 grams .

Hence , this is the required solution .

Based on solubility rules what ions in water might interfere with the analysis of calcium ions by precipitation of calcium carbo

Pavlova-9 [17]

First, we must know what happens in the precipitation reaction. This type of reaction is a double replacement reactions. It is consists of two reactant compounds which interchange cations and anions to form two products. One of the products is an insoluble solid called a precipitate. For the precipitation of CaCO₃, there are two consecutive reactions involved:

1. Slaking of quicklime, CaO
CaO + H₂O ⇒ Ca(OH)₂

2. Precipitation
Ca(OH)₂ + CO₂ ⇒ CaCO₃ + H₂O

The ions that make up the H₂O molecule are H⁺ and OH⁻. According to solubility rules, the cation (positively charged ion) is likely to be attracted to an anion (negatively charged ion). Together, they form an ionic bond. This type of bond is when there is a complete transfer of electrons between the two. The Ca²⁺ cation lacks 2 electrons, while the anion OH⁻ has an excess 1 electron. In order to be stable, 1 Ca²⁺ ion and 2 OH⁻ ions must combine.

Therefore, the answer is OH⁻ ion.
