a sample of copper wire with a mass of 1.659 g is heated with excess powdered sulfur until the copper has combined with the sulf

ur, and all the extra sulfur has been burned off. The final product (a sulfide of copper) has a mass of 2.080 g. Calculate the empirical formula of the product, and name it.

First you figure out how many grams of sulfur has been used.
2.080g - 1.659g = 0.421g of S used
Now change all of your grams to mols.
1.659g of Cu / 63.546g/mol = 0.02611mol of Cu
0.421g of S / 32.065g/mol = 0.01313 mol of S
From this you can see that S has less so we divide both numbers by the number of moles of S so we can get a ratio of S to Cu.
0.01313/0.01313 = 1 for S
0.02611/0.01313 = 2 for Cu
So the empirical formula would be Cu2S or copper sulfide.

Answer:

Na+Cl- + Ag+no3- ---> Na+No3- + Ag+Cl-

A spectator ion is an ion that exists as a reactant and a product in a chemical equation

Explanation:

When a solution of sodium hydroxide, NaOH, is mixed with hydrochloric acid, HCl, the compounds dissociate into the ions Na+, OH-, H+ and Cl-. The hydrogen and hydroxide ions react to form water, but the sodium and chlorine ions stay in solution unchanged.

MgCl2 + AgNO3 → AgCl + Mg(NO3)2
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

MgCl2 + 2AgNO3 → 2AgCl + Mg(NO3)2

Explanation:

I'm assuming you want to balance it so...

The first thing I see is that there are two chlorines on the reactant side and one on the product side

Adding a coefficient of 2 would get 2AgCl2

Now there are two silvers on the reactant side, so add a 2 to AgNO3 on the products side. Now they are all balanced.

If that is not what you are looking for let me know!

A given sample of a gas has a volume of 3 liters at a
ycow [4]

Answer:

B) 12

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial volume  = 3L

Initial pressure  = 4atm

Final pressure  = 6atm

Unknown:

Final volume  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we apply Boyle's law which states that "the volume of a fixed mass of a gas varies inversely as the pressure changes if the temperature is constant".

   P₁V₁  = P₂V₂

 P and V are pressure and temperature values

 1 and 2 are initial and final states.

    PV product  = 3 x 4 = 12

What is the reason for the low solubility of LiF (0.27 g
Brut [27]

Answer:

The answer is C. The high solvation energy for LI+

Explanation:

LiF has lower solubility because of the high solvation energy of Li+ ion. This is due to the smaller  size and very big charge compared to Cs+ ion which has a bigger size and solvent molecules easily surround it.

Solvation energy is simply the amount energy that is required to make a solute dissolve in a solvent.
