Washing soda, a compound used to prepare hard water for washing laundry, is a hydrate, which means that a certain number of wate

r molecules are included in the solid structure. Its formula can be written as Na₂CO₃⋅xH₂O, where x is the number of moles of H₂O per mole of Na₂CO₃. When a 3.837 −g sample of washing soda is heated at 25 ∘C, all the water of hydration is lost, leaving 1.42 g of Na₂CO₃.
What is the value of x?

Answer:

moles H₂O = 10

Explanation:

The mass of Na₂CO₃⋅xH₂O is 3.837 g and the mass of Na₂CO₃ is 1.42g

Therefore the mass of xH₂O is 3.837 - 1.42 = 2.417 g

The molar mass of Na₂CO₃ is 106 g/mol and for H₂O is 18 g/mol

The moles of Na₂CO₃ and H₂O in the sample are:

Na₂CO₃ = 1.42 / 106 = 0.01340 moles

H₂O = 2.417 / 18 = 0.1343

Now using rule of three :

1 mole of Na₂CO₃ has x moles of H₂O

0.01340 moles of Na₂CO₃ has 0.1343 moles of H₂O

x = 1 * 0.1343 / 0.01340 = 10

what is cotinental drift defin this term whith three scientific evidnce in 3-5 sentences HELP ME I'LL MAKE YOUR BRAINEST AND YOU
FinnZ [79.3K]
Continental drift is the movement of Earth’s continents over long periods of time. An evidence for this is that some continents look like puzzle pieces that can fit together, such as South America and Africa. Another evidence is that fossils of the same type have been found in different continents, far apart - suggesting that the two continents once were joined. Another evidence is that identical rocks were found at both sides of the Atlantic Ocean by Alfred Wegener, the main developer of the continents drift theory.

Silver chloride is formed by mixing silver nitrate and barium chloride solutions. What volume of 1.50 M barium chloride solution
konstantin123 [22]

Answer:

1.22 mL

Explanation:

Let's consider the following balanced reaction.

2 AgNO₃ + BaCl₂ ⇄ Ba(NO₃)₂ + 2 AgCl

The molar mass of silver chloride is 143.32 g/mol. The moles corresponding to 0.525 g are:

0.525 g × (1 mol/143.32 g) = 3.66 × 10⁻³ mol

The molar ratio of AgCl to BaCl₂ is 2:1. The moles  of BaCl₂ are 1/2 × 3.66 × 10⁻³ mol = 1.83 × 10⁻³ mol.

The volume of 1.50 M barium chloride containing 1.83 × 10⁻³ moles is:

1.83 × 10⁻³ mol × (1 L/1.50 mol) = 1.22 × 10⁻³ L = 1.22 mL
