Answer:

  • <u>No, you cannot dissolve 4.6 moles of copper sulfate, CuSO₄, in 1750mL of water.</u>

Explanation:

This question is part of a Post-Lab exercise sheet.

Such sheet include the saturation concentrations for several salts.

The saturation concentration of Copper Sulfate, CuSO₄, indicated in the table is 1.380M.

That means that 1.380 moles of copper sulfate is the maximum amount that can be dissolved in one liter of solution.

Find the molar concentration for 4.6 moles of copper sulfate in 1,750 mL of water.

You need to assume that the volume of water (1750mL) is the volume of the solution. This is, that the 4.6 moles of copper sulfate have a negligible volume.

<u>1. Volume in liters:</u>

  • V = 1,750 mL × 1 liter / 1,000 mL = 1.75 liter

<u />

<u>2. Molar concentration, molarity, M:</u>

  • M = number of moles of solute / volume of solution in liters

  • M = 4.6 moles / 1.75 liter = 2.6 M

Since the solution is saturated at 1.380M, you cannot reach the 2.6M concentration, meaning that you cannot dissolve 4.6 moles of copper sulfate, CuSO₄ in 1750mL of water.

Consider the reaction that occurs when copper is added to nitric acid. Upper C u (s) plus 4 upper H upper N upper O subscript 3
Nitella [24]

Answer:

Cu

Explanation:

In the given reaction of the addition of copper to nitric acid,

Cu(s) + 4HNO3(aq) -> Cu(NO3)2(aq) + 2NO2(g) + 2H2O(l)

Cu or copper would be characterized as the reducing agent in this reaction. It is the chemical substance that is losing electrons and being oxidized due to this reduction/loss in this redox reaction as it is the metal that loses electrons by reacting with the non-metals.

A solution is prepared by dissolving 0.23 mol of hypochlorous acid and 0.27 mol of sodium hypochlorite in water sufficient to yi
finlep [7]

Answer:

hypochlorite ion

Explanation:

The hypochlorous acid, HClO, is a weak acid with Ka = 1.36x10⁻³, when this acid is in solution with its conjugate base, ClO⁻ (From sodium hypochlorite, NaClO) a buffer is produced. When a strong acid as HCl is added, the reaction that occurs is:

HCl + ClO⁻ → HClO + Cl⁻.

Where more hypochlorous acid is produced.

That means, the HCl reacts with the hypochlorite ion present in solution

How do particles in a solid move?
satela [25.4K]

Answer:

The particles in a solid vibrate in place.

Explanation:

The particles in a solid are close and tightly packed together so they have no room to flow past each other like the particles in a liquid can.

Hope this helps!

How does hydrogen bonding affect the physical properties of substances?
alekssr [168]
The melting and boiling point depend on the strength of the ihydrogen bonds. Hydrogen bonding will cause the higher the melting and boiling points because more energy is needed to break bonds between molecules.
Hydrogen bonds affect solubility in water, molecules with hydrogen bonds dissolve better in water.
