A mixture contains only NaCl and Al2(SO4)3. A 1.45-g sample of the mixture is dissolved in water, and an ex- cess of NaOH is add

ed, producing a precipitate of Al(OH)3. The precipitate is filtered, dried, and weighed. The mass of the precipitate is 0.107 g. What is the mass percent of Al2(SO4)3 in the sample?

Answer:

The mass percent of aluminum sulfate in the sample is 16.18%.

Explanation:

Mass of the sample = 1.45 g

Al_2SO_3+6NaOH\rightarrow 2Al(OH)_3+3Na_2SO_4

Mass of the precipitate = 0.107 g

Moles of aluminum hydroxide = \frac{0.107 g}{78 g/mol}=0.001372 mol

According to reaction, 2 moles of aluminum hydroxide is obtained from 1 mole of aluminum sulfate .

Then 0.001372 moles of aluminum hydroxide will be obtained from:

\frac{1}{2}\times 0.001372 mol=0.000686 mol

Mass of 0.000686 moles of aluminum sulfate :

= 0.000686 mol × 342 g/mol = 0.2346 g

The mass percent of aluminum sulfate in the sample:

=\frac{ 0.2346 g}{1.45g}\times 100=16.18\%

inessss [21]

Answer:

Sample A - Mixture

Sample B - (can't decide)

Explanation:

We know a mixture as a sample that is made up of two or more substances. Based on the results from the experiment conducted on sample A, the sample is a mixture. Each colour that appeared on the paper represents one of the components of the mixture.

For Sample B, at a particular sharp temperature, the crystals begin to appear. That temperature at which the first crystal appears is actually the melting point of the solid. We were also told that only half of the clear liquid was crystallized meaning that other substances may still be contained in the remaining liquid. Crystallization is a separation technique that depends on differences in melting points of substances. We can't decide if the sample is pure because we have no further information about what happened to the remaining liquid. That would have told us if the liquid remaining was just the solvent used to dissolve B which could have also been evaporated to leave only the pure sample.
