Answer:- Mass of the alloy is 2.8 kg.

Solution:- Mass of Cr in the alloy is 325 g and mass of Fe in the alloy is 2.5 kg. Mass of alloy would be the sum of masses of constituent metals.

Masses of the metals are not in the same units. So, we need to make the units equal. The want answer in kg so let's convert mass of Cr from g to kg.

Since, 1000 g = 1 kg

So, 325g\frac{1kg}{1000g}

= 0.325 kg

Mass of alloy = mass of Cr + mass of Fe

mass of alloy = 0.325 kg + 2.5 kg = 2.825 kg

If we consider significant figures then as per the rules, the answer should not have more than one decimal place.

So, 2.825 kg is round off to 2.8 kg and hence the mass of the alloy is 2.8 kg.

JulsSmile [24]

Since the reaction shown in the question is an acid - base reaction in the Lewis sense; the Lewis acid here is AlCl3  while the Lewis base here is Cl^- .

<h3>What is  a Lewis acid?</h3>

A Lewis acid is a substance that accepts electron pair while a Lewis base donates an electron pair.

Now consider the given reaction; AlCl3 +Cl^- ------> AlCl 4 ^-. The Lewis acid here is AlCl3  while the Lewis base here is Cl^- .

One of the hydrates of MnSO4 is manganese(II) sulfate tetrahydrate . A 71.6 gram sample of MnSO4 4 H2O was heated thoroughly in
Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

48.32 g of anhydrous MnSO4.

Explanation:

Equation of dehydration reaction:

MnSO4 •4H2O --> MnSO4 + 4H2O

Molar mass = 55 + 32 + (4*16) + 4((1*2) + 16)

= 223 g/mol

Mass of MnSO4 • 4H2O = 71.6 g

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

= 71.6/223

= 0.32 mol.

By stoichiometry, since 1 mole of MnSO4 •4H2O is dehydrated to give 1 mole of anhydrous MnSO4

Number of moles of MnSO4 = 0.32 mol.

Molar mass = 55 + 32 + (4*16)

= 151 g/mol.

Mass = 151 * 0.32

= 48.32 g of anhydrous MnSO4.
