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

Which elements form ions that are usually colored in solid compounds and in solution? A. alkali metals B. alkaline earth metals
ollegr [7]

Answer:

C. transition elements

Explanation:

Transition elements are groups of metallic elements that have partially filled d orbitals. They occupy the d-block of the periodic table (Group 3-12). Examples of elements that fall under this category are Nickel (Ni), Cobalt (Co), Copper (Cu), Zinc (Zn) etc. Transition metals have outstanding properties that distinguishes them from other elements.

One of these properties is their ability to form colored compounds due to their unfilled d electron shells. They form ions that are usually colored in solid compounds and in solution.

How many grams of P4O10 (292.88 g/mol) form when phelpsphorous (P4, 125.52 g/mol) reacts with 16.2 L of O2 (33.472 g/mol) ) at s
nevsk [136]

Answer:

40.5 g of P₄O₁₀ are produced

Explanation:

We state the reaction:

P₄ + 5O₂ → P₄O₁₀

We do not have data from P₄ so we assume, it's the excess reactant.

We need to determine mass of oxygen and we only have volumne so we need to apply density.

Density = mass / volume, so Mass = density . volume

Denstiy of oxygen at STP is: 1.429 g/L

1.429 g/L . 16.2L = 23.15 g

We determine the moles: 23.15 g . 1mol / 33.472g = 0.692 moles

5 moles of O₂ can produce 1 mol of P₄O₁₀

Our 0.692 moles may produce (0.692 . 1)/ 5 = 0.138 moles

We determine the mass of product:

0.138 mol . 292.88 g/mol = 40.5 g

Which of the following statements about the procedure for distillation is false?
madreJ [45]

Answer: B) You are to continue heating the round-bottom flask until all liquid has been distilled.

Explanation:

Fractional distillation refers to a method that's useful for the separation of mixtures of solvents whereby there is less than 40°C in the boiling point difference.

With regards to the options given, the incorrect statement about the procedure for distillation is that you are to continue heating the round-bottom flask until all liquid has been distilled. This isn't correct.
