Answer: There are 2.29\times 10^{23} formula units

Explanation:

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance occupies 22.4 L at STP and contains avogadro's number 6.023\times 10^{23} of particles.

To calculate the moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}=\frac{36.0g}{95g/mol}=0.38moles

1 mole of MgCl_2 contains = 6.023\times 10^{23} formula units

Thus 0.38 moles of MgCl_2 contains = \frac{6.023\times 10^{23}}{1}\times 0.38=2.29\times 10^{23} formula units

Thus there are 2.29\times 10^{23} formula units

The proposed mechanism for a reaction is: Step 1: A + B X (fast) Step 2: X + C Y (slow) Step 3: Y D (fast) What is the overall r
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

(slow)xy2+z→xy2z (fast) c step1:step2:xy2+z2→xy2z2

Explanation:

Step1: xy2+z2→xy2z2 (slow)

Step2: xy2z2→xy2z+z (fast)

2XY 2 + Z 2 → 2XY 2 Z

Rate= k[xy2][z2]

 

When the two elementary steps are summed up, the result is equivalent to the stoichiometric equation. Hence, this mechanism is acceptable. The order of both elementary steps is 2, which is ‘≤3’; this also makes this mechanism acceptable. Furthermore, the rate equation aligns with the experimentally determined rate equation, and this also makes this mechanism acceptable. Therefore, since all the three rules have been observed, this mechanism is possible.

Explain the meaning of the terms "saturated," "unsaturated," and "supersaturated"
dmitriy555 [2]
Saturated Solution: A solution with solute that dissolves until it is unable to dissolve anymore, leaving the undissolved substances at the bottom. Unsaturated Solution: A solution ( with less solute than the saturated solution )that completely dissolves, leaving no remaining substances. Supersaturated Solution.

Find the mass of 0.235 moles of SiO2? (NOTE: use correct significant figures!)
marta [7]

Answer: 14.1g

Explanation:

Given that,

number of moles of SiO2 = 0.235 moles

Mass in grams = Z (let unknown value be Z)

Molar mass of SiO2 = ?

To get the molar mass of SiO2, use the atomic mass

Silicon = 28g;

Oxygen = 16g

i.e Molar mass of SiO2 = 28g + (16g x 2)

= 28g + 32g

= 60g/mol

Now, apply the formula

Number of moles = Mass / molar mass

0.235 moles = Z / 60g/mol

Z = 0.235 moles x 60g/mol

Z = 14.1 g

Thus, the mass of SiO2 is 14.1 grams.

Calculate the number of Na ions and Cl ions and total number of ions in 14.5g of NaCl.​
Elanso [62]

Answer:

Number of Na ions in 14.5 g of NaCl is 1.49 × 10²³.

Number of Cl ions in 14.5 g of NaCl is 1.49 × 10²³.

Total number of ions =  1.49 × 10²³  +  1.49 × 10²³ = 2.98 × 10²³.

Explanation:

1 mole of any compound contains 6.023 × 10²³ molecules.

molecular weight of NaCl is 23 + 35.5 = 58.5 g.

so, 58.5 grams of NaCl makes 1 mole

⇒ 14.5 g of NaCl = \frac{14.5}{58.5} =  0.248 moles.

⇒ 0.248 mole contains 0.248 × 6.023×10²³ molecules

=  1.49 × 10²³ molecules.

And 1 molecule contains 1 Na ion and 1 Cl ion.

⇒ number of Na ions in 14.5 g of NaCl is 1.49 × 10²³.

⇒ number of Cl ions in 14.5 g of NaCl is 1.49 × 10²³.

Total number of ions =  1.49 × 10²³  +  1.49 × 10²³ = 2.98 × 10²³.
