Answer is D

Explanation:

Answer: option D. the ability of a base to react with a soluble metal salt.


Justification:


NaOH is a strong base, which means that in water it will dissociate according to this reaction:


  • NaOH(aq) → Na⁺ (aq) + OH⁻ (aq)

On the other hand, CuSO₄ is a soluble ionic salt which in water will dissociate into its ions according to this other reaction:

  • CuSO₄(aq) → Cu²⁺ + SO₄²⁻

Hence, in solution, the sodium ion (Na⁺) will  react with the metal salt in a double replacement reaction, where the highly reactive sodium ion (Na⁺) will substitute the Cu²⁺ in the CuSO₄ to form the sodium sulfate salt, Na₂SO₄ (water soluble), and the copper(II) hydroxide, Cu(OH)₂ (insoluble).


That is what the given reaction represents:


  CuSO₄ (aq)     +     2NaOH(aq)    →    Cu(OH)₂(s)       +     Na₂SO₄(aq)

         ↑                                ↑                         ↑                            ↑

soluble metal salt       strong base       insoluble base       solube salt

How many mols of H3PO4 are produced when 284 g P4O10 reacts completely to form H3PO4? P4O10 + 6H2O --> 4H3PO4
LenKa [72]

Answer:

4 moles of H3PO4

Explanation:

Molar mass of P4O10 = 284 g/mol

Number of moles of P4O10  reacted = 284g/284 g/mol = 1 mole of P4O10

From the reeaction equation;

1 mole of P4O10 yields 4 moles of H3PO4

Hence, 284 g of P4O10 yields 4 moles of H3PO4

In this reaction: Mg (s) + I₂ (s) → MgI₂ (s), if 10.0 g of Mg reacts with 60.0 g of I₂, and 53.88 g of MgI₂ form, what is the pe
ad-work [718]

We know the law of conservation of mass

  • It states that mass is neither formed nor destroyed in any chemical reaction.
  • Mass of reactants=Mass of products.

Here

  • Mg and I_2 are reactants
  • MgI_2 is product with some yield.
  • Mass of reactants=10+60.0=70.0g
  • Mass of MgI_2=53.88g
  • Mass of yield=Product-MgI_2=70-53.88=16.12g

Lets find the percentage

\\ \tt\hookrightarrow \dfrac{Mass\:of\:yield}{Total\:mass}\times 100

\\ \tt\hookrightarrow \dfrac{16.12}{70}\times 100

\\ \tt\hookrightarrow 0.23028(010)=23.028\%

1. Which liquid sample is a pure substance?
IRISSAK [1]

The whole Activity , poem and paragraph is missing in the question.

Answer:

(1) Liquid A

(2) Solid A

Explanation:

Using this part of the given poem

Substances and mixtures behave differently,

During boiling and melting most especially

Boiling point of substance is fixed while mixture is not

Substance melts completely but mixture does not

The boiling point of the Pure substance remain fixed after reaching its boiling point this is shown by Liquid A

Solid A is melting completely so Solid A is a pure substance.
