Answer:
- Part a) 0.0104 moles copper(II) nitrate.
i) 0.0418 mole Cu
ii) 0.0209 mol Ag NO₃
Explanation:
<u>1) Balanced chemical reaction (single replacement):</u>
In a single replacement reaction a more acitve metal (Cu) replaces a less active metal (Ag)
- Cu + 2 Ag NO₃ → Cu (NO₃)₂ + 2 Ag
<u>2) Mole ratio: </u>
- 1 mole Cu : 2 mole Ag NO₃ : 2 mole Ag
<u />
<u>3) Moles of Ag</u>
- n = mass in grams / atomic mass
- atomic mass of Ag: 107.868 g/mol
- n = 2.25 g / 107.868 g/mol = 0.0209 mol Ag
<u>4) Moles of copper(II) nitrate:</u>
- Set the proportion using the mole ratio:
- 2 mole Ag / 1 mole Cu (NO₃)₂ = 0.0209 mole Ag / x
- Solve: x = 0.0209 / 2 mole Cu (NO₃)₂ = 0.0104 moles Cu(NO₃)₂
That is the answer of part a: 0.0104 moles copper(II) nitrate.
<u>5) Moles of each reactant</u>
i) Cu:
- Set a proportion using the theoretical mole ratio
1 mole Cu / 2 mole Ag = x / 0.0209 mol Ag
- Solve for x: x = 0.0209 / 2 mole Cu = 0.0418 mole Cu
ii) Ag NO₃
- Set a proportion using the teoretical mole ratio
2 mole Ag NO₃ / 2 mole Ag = x / 0.0209 mole Ag
- Solve for x: x = 0.0209 mol Ag NO₃
Hi!
The correct option would be A.
This is because the displacement reaction would take place as follows
Ca + ZnCl2 --> CaCl2 + Zn
A displacement reaction is one in which a substitution occurs, as the more reactive element in the mixture replaces one that is less reactive.
In the electrochemical series, we find Ca higher than Zn, which is indicative of Ca being more reactive, and having the capacity to displace Zn to form a compound.
Option D would be incorrect as no such substitution occurs.
Option B would be incorrect because again, there is no substitution occurring, and also because two metals alone (Ca and Zn in our case) can never react to form a compound.
Option C would be incorrect because it is not possible because CaCl and ZnCl are forms that are too unstable to exist due to an overall positive charge.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
C. If Assertion is true statement but Reason is false.
Explanation:
The burning of magnesium in air produces magnesium oxide as shown by the equation;
2Mg(s) + O2(g) -----> 2MgO(s)
The magnesium oxide solid is recovered as a white ash. This is a typical example of an oxidation reaction which is also a combustion reaction.
The reason has nothing at all to do with the assertion hence the answer given.
Magnesium oxide is basic just like the oxides of other metals and dissolves in water to yield an alkali.
I don’t see nun tho where’s the objects
Answer:
44.2 L
Explanation:
Use Charles Law:

We have all the values except for V₂; this is what we're solving for. Input the values:
- make sure that your temperature is in Kelvin
From here, we need to get V₂ by itself. To do this, multiply by 273 on both sides:

Therefore, V₂ = 44.2 L
It's also helpful to know that temperature and volume are linearly related. So, when temperature drops, so will volume and vice versa.
