A student has a mixture of salt (NaCl) and sugar (C12H22O11). To determine the percentage, the student measures out 5.84 grams o

julsineya [31]

Answer:

The volume of 1.0 AgNO₃ that would be required to precipitate 5.84 grams of NaCl is 99.93 ml

Explanation:

Here we have the reaction of AgNO₃ and NaCl as follows;

AgNO₃(aq) + NaCl(aq)→ AgCl(s) + NaNO₃(aq)

Therefore, one mole of silver nitrate, AgNO₃, reacts with one mole of sodium chloride, NaCl, to produce one mole of silver choride, AgCl, and one mole of sodium nitrate, NaNO₃,

Therefore, since 5.84 grams of NaCl which is 58.44 g/mol, contains

$Number \, of \, moles, n = \frac{Mass}{Molar \ mass} = \frac{5.84}{58.44} = 0.09993 \ moles \ of \ NaCl$

0.09993 moles of NaCl will react with 0.09993 moles of AgNO₃

Also, as 1.0 M solution of AgNO₃ contains 1 mole per 1 liter or 1000 mL, therefore, the volume of AgNO₃ that will contain 0.09993 moles is given as follows;

0.09993 × 1 Liter/mole= 0.09993 L = 99.93 mL

Therefore, the volume of 1.0 AgNO₃ that would be required to precipitate 5.84 grams of NaCl is 99.93 ml.

What is the pH of a 0.00001 M solution of HCI?

ale4655 [162]

Answer:

0.00001= 1 x 10^-5. Since HCl is an acid, 1 x10^-5 is the H+ concentration. Write only the number of the exponent. Therefore, pH = 5.

I need help with my homework.Calculate the number of formula units in: 41.5 grams CaBr2

lana66690 [7]

Answer:

$\text{ }1.25\times10^{23}\text{ formula units}$

Explanation:

Here, we want to calculate the number of formula units in the given molecule

We start by getting the number of moles

To get the number of moles, we have to divide the mass given by the molar mass

The molar mass is the mass per mole

The molar mass of calcium bromide is 200 g/mol

Thus, we have the number of moles as follows:

$\frac{41.5}{200}\text{ = 0.2075 mol}$

The number of formula units in a mole is:

$1\text{ mole = 6.02 }\times10^{22}\text{ formula units}$

The number of formula units in 0.2075 mole will be:

$0.2075\text{ }\times6.02\times10^{23}\text{ = }1.25\times10^{23}\text{ formula units}$

What is the empirical formula for a compound that contains 10.89% magnesium 31.77% chloride and 57.34% oxygen

Blizzard [7]

Answer: $Mg_{1}Cl_{2}O_{8}$

Explanation:

If percentage are given then we are taking total mass is 100 grams.So, the mass of each element is equal to the percentage given.

Mass of Mg = 10.89 g

Mass of Cl = 31.77 g

Mass of O = 57.34 g

Step 1 : convert given masses into moles.

Moles of Mg= $\frac {\text{ given mass of Mg}}{\text{ molar mass of Mg}}= \frac {10.89g}{24g/mole}=0.45moles$

Moles of Cl = $\frac {\text{ given mass of Cl}}{\text{ molar mass of Cl}}= \frac {31.77g}{35.5g/mole}=0.89moles$

Moles of O = $\frac {\text{ given mass of O}}{\text{ molar mass of O}}=\frac {57.34g}{16g/mole}=3.58moles$

Step 2 : For the mole ratio, divide each value of moles by the smallest number of moles calculated.

For Mg = $\frac {0.45}{0.45}=1$

For Cl = $\frac {0.89}{0.45}=2$

For O= $\frac {3.58}{0.45}=8$

The ratio of Mg :Cl : O= 1 : 2 : 8

Hence the empirical formula is $Mg_{1}Cl_{2}O_{8}$
