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%

Heat is being transferred from the ground to the air above it by conduction. Explain how this is possible.
Klio2033 [76]

Answer:

Conduction directly affects air temperature only a few centimeters into the atmosphere. During the day, sunlight heats the ground, which in turn heats the air directly above it via conduction. At night, the ground cools and the heat flows from the warmer air directly above to the cooler ground via conduction.

What is the volume of 3.00 M sulfuric aid that contain 9.809 g of H2SO4 (98.09g/mol)
Slav-nsk [51]

Given :

Molarity of sulfuric acid solution is 3.0 M.

Amount of sulfuric acid present in solution is 9.809 g.

To Find :

The volume of solution.

Solution :

We know, molarity is given by :

Molarity = \dfrac{number \ of \ moles \times 1000}{Volume\ ( ml )}\\\\M = \dfrac{w \times 1000}{M.M \times V}\\\\3 = \dfrac{9.809\times 1000}{98.09 \times V}\\\\V = \dfrac{1000}{10\times 3}\  ml\\\\V = 33.33 \ ml

Therefore, volume required is 33.33 ml .

A chemical change combining two elements results in?
Neporo4naja [7]

Answer:

When two distinct elements are chemically combined for example, chemical bonds form between their atoms, the result is called a chemical compound. Most elements on Earth bond with other elements to form chemical compounds, such as sodium and Chloride, which combine to form table salt.
