Answer:

17.76g

Explanation:

We need to write a balanced chemical equation for the reaction:

2Al(OH)3 + 3Ca(NO3)2 ——> 3Ca(OH)2 + 2Al(NO3)3

In the reaction above, it can be seen that 2 moles of aluminum hydroxide yielded 3 moles of calcium hydroxide. This is the theoretical viewpoint.

Now we need to know what actually happened. We need to calculate the actual number of moles of aluminum hydroxide reacted l. We can get this by dividing the mass by the molar mass.

The molar mass of aluminum hydroxide is 27+ 3( 16+1)

= 27 + 51 = 78g/mol

The number of moles is thus: 12.55/78 = 0.16 moles

Now if 2 moles of aluminum hydroxide gave 3 moles of calcium hydroxide, 0.16moles will give : (0.16*3)/2 = 0.24moles

Now we can calculate the mass of calcium hydroxide formed. The mass of calcium hydroxide formed is the number of moles multiplied by the molar mass.

The molar mass of calcium hydroxide is; 40 + 2(17) = 74g/mol

The mass is thus =74 * 0.24 = 17.76g

Based on patterns in the periodic table, which ion has a stable valence electron configuration?
kifflom [539]

The ions of Noble gases, <em>group VIII</em> elements have a full octet configuration on their outermost shell and as such are highly stable.

The periodic table is a systematic arrangement of elements in order of their atomic numbers into a set of 8 columns each called groups and a set of 7 rows each called a period.

Elements are arranged in different groups according to the number of Valence electrons they have.

  • For instance, elements in the group I of the periodic table are highly electropositive and as such are highly reactive.

The same is evident in group 7 elements are highly electronegative and have high electron affinity and as such are unstable and reactive.

  • However, Noble gases, <em>group VIII</em> elements have a full octet configuration on their outermost shell and as such are highly stable.

Consequently, the <em>Noble gases ion</em> has a stable Valence electron configuration.

What is the salt formers group number is?
NeTakaya

The halogens are five non-metallic elements found in group 17 of the periodic table. The term "halogen" means "salt-former" and compounds containing halogens are called "salts". All halogens have 7 electrons in their outer shells, giving them an oxidation number of -1.

What are the observable indicators that can be evidence a chemical change might have occurred?
kozerog [31]

solution:

The four observations that indicate a chemical change are:  

1) Precipitate is formed  

2) Odour  

3) Heat is emitted ( change in temperature)  

4)Formation of a Gas

Changes of state may of course be merely physical—as for example when liquid water is boiled to form a vapor. (These and other examples of physical changes resulting from temperature changes are discussed in the essays on Properties of Matter; Temperature and Heat.) The vapor produced by boiling water, as noted above, is still water; on the other hand, when liquid water is turned into the elemental gases hydrogen and oxygen, a more profound change has occurred.  

Likewise the addition of liquid potassium chromate (K2CrO4) to a solution of barium nitrate (Ba[NO3]2 forms solid barium chromate (BaCrO4). In the reaction described, a solution is also formed, but the fact remains that the mixture of two solids has resulted in the formation of a solid in a different solution. Again, this is a far more complex phenomenon than the mere freezing of water to form ice: here the fundamental properties of the materials involved have changed.  

The physical change of water to ice or steam, of course, involves changes in temperature; likewise, chemical changes are often accompanied by changes in temperature, the crucial difference being that these changes are the result of alterations in the chemical properties of the substances involved. Such is the case, for instance, when wood burns in the presence of oxygen: once wood is turned to ash, it has become an entirely different mixture than it was before. Obviously, the ashes cannot be simply frozen to turn them back into wood again. This is an example of an irreversible chemical reaction.  

Chemical reactions may also involve changes in color. In specific proportions and under the right conditions, carbon—which is black—can be combined with colorless hydrogen and oxygen to produce white sugar. This suggests another kind of change: a change in taste. (Of course, not every product of a chemical reaction should be tasted—some of the compounds produced may be toxic, or at the very least, extremely unpleasant to the taste buds.) Smell, too, can change. Sulfur is odorless in its elemental form, but when combined with hydrogen to form hydrogen sulfide (H2S), it becomes an evil-smelling, highly toxic gas.
