Answer:

The answer to your question is 280 g of Mg(NO₃)₂

Explanation:

Data

Efficiency = 30.80 %

Mg(NO₃)₂ = ?

Magnesium = 147.4 g

Copper (II) nitrate = excess

Balanced Reaction

                     Mg  +   Cu(NO₃)₂    ⇒    Mg(NO₃)₂   +   Cu

                  Reactants           Elements            Products

                         1                          Mg                     1

                         1                          Cu                      1

                         2                          N                       2

                         6                          O                       6

Process

1.- Calculate the theoretical yield

Molecular weight Mg = 24

Molecular weight Mg(NO₃)₂ = 24 + (14 x 2) + (16 x 6)

                                              = 24 + 28 + 96

                                              = 148 g

                           24 g of Mg  --------------------  148 g of Mg(NO₃)₂

                          147.4 g of Mg -------------------   x

                            x = (147.4 x 148) / 24

                            x = 908.96 g of Mg(NO₃)₂

2.- Calculate the Actual yield

yield percent = \frac{actual yield}{theoretical yield}

Solve for actual yield

Actual yield = Yield percent x Theoretical yield

Substitution

Actual yield = \frac{30.8}{100} x 908.96

Actual yield = 279.95 ≈ 280g

The molar mass of H2O is 18.01 g/mol. The molar mass of O2 is 32.00 g/mol. What mass of H2O, in grams, must react to produce 50.
Annette [7]
This reaction is called the electrolysis of water. The balanced reaction is:
2H2O = 2H2 + O2
We are given the amount of O2 produced from the electrolysis reaction. This will be the starting point of our calculation.

50.00 grams O2 ( 1 mol O2 / 32 grams O2) ( 2 mol H2O / 1 mol O2) ( 18.01 g H2O / 1 mol H2O ) = 56.28 g H2O

Tim wants to store 0.122 moles of helium gas at 203 kPa and 401 K. Which is the volume of the helium gas needed for storage?
algol13

 The  volume  of Helium gas needed for storage  is 2.00 L (answer C)


 <u><em> calculation</em></u>

 The volume of Helium is calculated using ideal gas equation

That is Pv =nRT

where;

 P( pressure) = 203 KPa

V(volume)=?

n(number  of moles) =  0.122 moles

R(gas constant) = 8.314  L.Kpa/mol.K

T(temperature)= 401 K

make V the  subject of the formula  by diving both side  by P

V=nRT/p

V={[0.122  moles x 8.314 L. KPa/mol.K  x 401 K]  / 203 KPa} = 2.00 L

Species shown in bold are precipitates.

  • Ca(NO₃)₂ + 2 KOH → Ca(OH)₂ + 2 KNO₃
  • Ca(NO₃)₂ + Na₂C₂O₄ → CaC₂O₄ + 2 NaNO₃
  • Cu(NO₃)₂ + 2 KI → CuI₂ + 2 KI
  • Cu(NO₃)₂ + 2 KOH → Cu(OH)₂ + 2 KNO₃
  • Cu(NO₃)₂ + Na₂C₂O₄ → CuC₂O₄ + 2 NaNO₃
  • Ni(NO₃)₂ + 2 KOH → Ni(OH)₂ + 2 KNO₃
  • Ni(NO₃)₂ + Na₂C₂O₄ → NiC₂O₄ + 2 NaNO₃
  • Zn(NO₃)₂ + 2 KOH → Zn(OH)₂ + 2 KNO₃
  • Zn(NO₃)₂ + Na₂C₂O₄ → ZnC₂O₄ + 2 NaNO₃

<h3>2</h3>

A double replacement reaction takes place only if it reduces in the concentration of ions in the solution. For example, the reaction between Ca(NO₃)₂ and KOH produces Ca(OH)₂. Ca(OH)₂ barely dissolves. The reaction has removed Ca²⁺ and OH⁻ ions from the solution.

Some of the reactions lead to neither precipitates nor gases. They will not take place since they are not energetically favored.


<h3>3</h3>

Compare the first and last row:

Both Ca(NO₃)₂ and Zn(NO₃)₂ react with KOH. However, between the two precipitates formed, Ca(OH)₂ is more soluble than Zn(OH)₂.

As a result, add the same amount of KOH to two Ca(NO₃)₂ and Zn(NO₃)₂ of equal concentration. The solution that end up with more precipitate shall belong to Zn(NO₃)₂.


<h3>4</h3>

Compare the second and third row:

Cu(NO₃)₂ reacts with KI, but Ni(NO₃)₂ does not. Thus, add equal amount of KI to the two unknowns. The solution that forms precipitate shall belong to Cu(NO₃)₂.

On a coordinate plane, which single transformation could map point A (3,-4) onto point A' (1.5,-2)? *
Ksenya-84 [330]

Answer: A dilation with rule: (x,y)\to(\dfrac12x,\dfrac12y)

Explanation:

A dilation is a non-rigid transformation that creates an image that is the same shape as the original but has a different size.

It uses a scale factor k such that

(x,y)\to(kx,ky)

(x,y)= coordinates of original figure

(kx,ky) = corresponding coordinate in the image.

To transform: A (3,-4) onto point A' (1.5,-2).

Using scale factor k= \dfrac12, we have

A(3,-4)\to A'(\dfrac12\times3, \dfrac12\times-4)=A'(1.5,-2)

Required rule: (x,y)\to(\dfrac12x,\dfrac12y)
