A mixture of CrBr3 and inert material is analyzed to determine the Cr content. First the mixture is dissolved in water. Then all

of the bromide ion is precipitated as AgBr by the addition of an excess of silver nitrate. CrBr3(aq) + 3AgNO3(aq) 3AgBr(s) + Cr(NO3)3(aq) In one experiment, a 0.8409 g sample of the mixture resulted in 1.0638 g of AgBr. Determine the percent (by mass) of Cr in the mixture.

Answer:

Mass% Cr = 85.5%

Explanation:

<u>Given:</u>

Mass of CrBr3 sample = 0.8409 g

Mass of the AgBr precipitate = 1.0638 g

<u>To determine:</u>

The mass percent of Cr in the sample

<u>Calculation:</u>

The reaction of CrBr3 with silver nitrate results in the precipitation of the bromide ion as silver chloride (AgBr) and Cr as soluble Cr(NO3)2

CrBr3(aq) + 3AgNO3(aq)→ 3AgBr(s) + Cr(NO3)3(aq)

Molecular weight of AgBr =187.77 g/mol

Moles of AgBr precipitated is:

Moles(AgBr)=\frac{Mass(AgBr)}{Mol.wt(AgBr)}=\frac{0.8409g}{187.77g/mol}=0.004478moles

Since 1 mole of AgBr contains 1 mole of Cl, therefore:

# moles of Cl = 0.004478 moles

At wt of Cl = 35.45 g/mol

Mass(Chloride)=moles*at.wt = .004478moles*34.45g/mol=0.1543

Mass%(chloride)=\frac{mass(chloride)}{mass(sample)}*100=\frac{0.1543}{1.0638}*100 = 14.50%

Mass%(Cr) = 100 - 14.50=85.5%

Which temperature equation do you use when trying to find Celsius?
Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer: First subtract 32 degrees, then multiply the result by 5/9 (0.556 on a calculator). For example, suppose a thermometer reads 68 degrees Fahrenheit. Subtract 32 from 68, leaving 36. Multiply 36 by 5/9, which equals 20 degrees Celsius.

You are given 24.3 grams of Mg and combine it with 32.1 grams of Sulfur, what is the mass of MgS? *
koban [17]

Answer:

ExplanatioFirst let us compute for the molar mass of Mg(OH)2.

molar mass = 24.3 + 2 (16) + 2(1.0)

molar mass = 58.3 g/mol

 

So the mass is then:

mass = 3.2 mol * (58.3 g/mol)

mass = 186.56 gramsn:

Calculate the number of moles in 7.4g ca(oh)2
SCORPION-xisa [38]
First find the RFM (Relative Formula Mass) using a periodic table 
the RFM of Ca(OH)2 is = 74

then use the equation Moles = Mass / RFM

Moles = 7.4 / 74 = 0.1mol
