A hydrated form of copper sulfate (CuSO4·x H2O) is heated to drive off all the water. If we start with 8.79 g of hydrated salt a

nd have 6.57 g of anhydrous CuSO4 after heating, find the number of water molecules associated with each CuSO4 formula unit.

Answer:

3 water molecules

Explanation:

The molar ratio between CuSO₄ and H₂O needs to be calculated.

The mass of water that was removed by heating is calculated, then converted to moles. The molecular weight of water is 18.02g/mol.

(8.97 g - 6.57 g) = 2.22 g H₂O

(2.22 g)/(18.02g/mol) = 0.1232 mol H₂O

The moles of anhydrous copper sulfate are calculated. The molecular weight is 159.609 g/mol

(6.57 g)/(159.609 g/mol) = 0.04116 mol CuSO₄

Now the molar ratio between CuSO₄ and H₂O can be calculated:

0.1232 mol H₂O ÷ 0.04116 mol CuSO₄ = 3 H₂O / CuSO₄

__MgCl2 +

Answer:

24.5 g of NaCl

Explanation:

We begin from the balanced reaction:

3MgCl₂ +   2Na₃PO₄  →    6NaCl   +  Mg₃(PO₄)₂

If the sodium phosphate is in excess, then the limting reagent is the magnessium chloride.

We convert mass to moles:

20 g . 1mol / 95.2g = 0.210 moles.

3 moles of MgCl₂ can produce 6 moles of NaCl

0.210 moles of salt, may produce (0.210 . 6) /3 = 0.420 moles

Ratio of reactant is twice the product

We convert the moles to mass:

0.420 mol .  58.45 g/mol = 24.5 g

Explain specifically how an electron gives off light in an atom.
exis [7]

Answer:

Then, at some point, these higher energy electrons give up their "extra" energy in the form of a photon of light, and fall back down to their original energy level.

Explanation:

When properly stimulated, electrons in these materials move from a lower level of energy up to a higher level of energy and occupy a different orbital.

Ar (g) is placed in a 3.80 L container at 320 K. The gas pressure is 0.496 atm.
nata0808 [166]

Answer:

PV=nRt

Therefore n(number of moles)=PV/RT

=>(0.49×3.80)/(0.08206×320)

Therefore Number of moles is = 0.071mols

Explanation: By using the Real gas equation..

PV=NRT .

We can solve for the number of moles of Ar by making N the subject..

Always make sure you pressure is In atm, your Volume is in Litres and temperature in degree Kelvin.

Also Recall the universal gas constant R used in this type of questions which is 0.08206.

Hence l, by making N the subject we get our answer as
