2 Al + 6 HCl → 2 AlCl₃ + 3 H₂ (single displacement)
Ca + Br₂ → CaBr₂ (synthesis)
4 NH₃ + 5 O₂ → 4 NO + 6 H₂O (combustion)
2 NaCl → 2 Na + Cl₂ (decomposition)
FeS + 2 HCl → FeCl₂ + H₂S (double displacement)
single displacement - is a chemical reaction of the following type: A + BC → AC + B
double displacement - is a chemical reaction of the following type: AB + CD → AC + BD
synthesis - the chemical product is obtained by combining in a synthesis the constituent elements
combustion - usually a exothermic reaction of a particular compound with oxygen
decomposition - degradation of a compound in simpler elements
The fusion reaction in the sun is a combination of hydrogen atoms fusing to create helium. The fusion reaction in larger stars involve much heavier elements like oxygen and iron. In supernovas, often elements like gold are produced
Explanation:
- When a bond is formed by transfer of electrons from one atom to another then it results in the formation of an ionic bond.
An ionic bond is generally formed by a metal and a non-metal.
For example, lithium is an alkali metal with atomic number 3 and its electronic distribution is 2, 1.
And, chlorine is a non-metal with atomic number 17 and its electronic distribution is 2, 8, 7.
So, in order to complete their octet lithium needs to lose an electron and chlorine needs to gain an electron.
Hence, both of then on chemically combining together results in the formation of an ionic compound that is, lithium chloride (LiCl).
An ionic compound is formed by LiCl because lithium has donated its valence electron to the chlorine atom.
- On the other hand, if a bond is formed by sharing of electrons between the two chemically combining atoms then it is known as a covalent bond.
For example,
is a covalent compound as electrons are being shared by each oxygen atom.
Given parameters:
Volume of CuSO₄ = 250mL
Concentration of CuSO₄ = 2.01M
Unknown:
Mass of CuSO₄.5H₂O = ?
To solve this problem, we must write the chemical relationship between both species.;
CuSO₄.5H₂O → CuSO₄ + 5H₂O
Now that we know the expression, it is possible to solve for the unknown mass.
First find the number of moles of CuSO₄;
Number of moles = Concentration x Volume
Take 250mL to L so as to ensure uniformity of units;
Volume = 250 x 10⁻³L
Input the parameters and solve for number of moles;
Number of moles = 250 x 10⁻³ x 2.01 = 0.5mol
From the equation;
1 mole of CuSO₄ is produced from 1 mole of CuSO₄.5H₂O
So 0.5 moles of CuSO₄ will be produced from 0.5 moles of CuSO₄.5H₂O
Now let us find the molar mass of CuSO₄.5H₂O = 63.6 + 32 + 4(16) + 5(2x1 + 16) = 249.6g/mole
Mass of CuSO₄.5H₂O = number of moles x molar mass
= 0.5 x 249.6
= 124.8g
The mass of CuSO₄.5H₂O is 124.8g
Answer:
The amount of energy liberated will be 49.38 J.
Explanation:
The amount of energy liberated (gibbs free energy) can be calculated using the following equation:
ΔG° = -nFε
n: amount of moles of electrons transfered
F: Faraday's constant
ε: cell potential
20.0 g of Zn is equal to 0.30 mol.
Two electrons are transfered during the reaction.
Therefore, n = 2x0.30 ∴ n = 0.60
ΔG° = - 0.60 x 96.485 x 0.853
ΔG° = 49.38 J
