Answer:

We have:

M

)

+

H

C

l

(

)

→

M

2

(

)

+

H

2

(

g

)

LHS

Mg= 1

H= 1

Cl= 1

RHS

Mg= 1

Cl=2

H=2

To make Cl and H have 2 on both sides, we place a 2 in front of the HCl

M

(

g

)

LHS

Mg=1, H=2, Cl=2

RHS

Mg=1, H=1, Cl=2

Thus the equation is balanced and the coefficient of Mg is 1, which is understood so it is not written in the final equation.

Calculate how many grams of o2(g) can be produced from heating 87.4 grams of kclo3(s).
Rufina [12.5K]
<span>34.2 grams Lookup the atomic weights of the involved elements Atomic weight potassium = 39.0983 Atomic weight Chlorine = 35.453 Atomic weight Oxygen = 15.999 Molar mass KClO3 = 39.0983 + 35.453 + 3 * 15.999 = 122.5483 g/mol Moles KClO3 = 87.4 g / 122.5483 g/mol = 0.713188188 mol The balanced equation for heating KClO3 is 2 KClO3 = 2 KCl + 3 O2 So 2 moles of KClO3 will break down into 3 moles of oxygen molecules. 0.713188188 mol / 2 * 3 = 1.069782282 mols So we're going to get 1.069782282 moles of oxygen molecules. Since each molecule has 2 atoms, the mass will be 1.069782282 * 2 * 15.999 = 34.23089345 grams Rounding the results to 3 significant figures gives 34.2 grams</span>

solution of 0.160 MNaOH is used to titrate 21.0 mL of a solution of H2SO4:H2SO4(aq)+2NaOH(aq)→2H2O(l)+Na2SO4(aq)If 38.8 mL of th
stealth61 [152]

Answer:

0.0432 M H2SO4

Explanation:

First, we want to find the moles of MNaOH used. We know that Molarity x Liters = moles. 0.160M x 0.0210L = 0.00336 moles MNaOH

to find the moles of H2SO4, we can use a mol ratio.

0.00336mol MNaOH x (1Mol H2SO4 /2mol MNaOH)

= 0. 00168 mol H2SO4

I found the mol ratio by looking at the coefficients in front of the molecules I knew(MNaOH) and the molecule I needed to find(H2SO4)

then, to find Molarity, we do mol/Liters

0.00168 mol/ 0.0388L =. 0.0432 M H2SO4

You can convert mL to L by dividing by 1000

the significant figures of this problem is 3, so my final answer will also have 3 sig figs.

Which substance is used to remove rust from metal
wel
<span>Chemically speaking, rust is a base and any acid will remove it. The choice of acid is going to be the thing to consider, since acid + base = salt and water. Phosphoric acid left a residue because the salt Iron phosphate is insoluble in water. Iron's soluble salts include the chloride, the sulfate and the nitrate. Industrially speaking, you need to "pickle" your iron. Pickling is a process in which dilute sulfuric acid is used to remove any surface corrosion prior to either painting or plating an iron surface. Sulfuric acid is ordinary battery acid and the salt Iron sulfate is not toxic. Sulfuric acid is one of the most common acids used (besides hydrochloric acid). The dilute kind is not terribly corrosive but concentrated sulfuric acid is a thick, syrupy liquid which can cause some nasty chemical burns if allowed to remain on the skin. It also heats up quite a lot when water is added, so this is an "Acid to water not water to acid" situation. The other choice is Hydrochloric acid, known as muriatic acid. The 20% concentrate is available in nearly any hardware store. It isn't as corrosive as concentrated sulfuric acid, but it has a burning, acrid stench, so never use the concentrate without adequate ventilation. It is ordinarily used to remove hard water deposits (boiler scale) but does a good on on rust as well. Concentrated Iron chloride isn't entirely inert but lots of rinsing will turn it back into harmless rust/sludge, especially if the rince water is naturally hard. Nitric acid will remove corrosion from anything, but it is extremely corrosive, smells worse then Hydrochloric acid and isn't easy to get, since it can be used to create some powerful explosives</span>
