A balanced chemical equation must account for every atom involved in a chemical reaction.

1 answer:

4 0

True. If the balanced chemical equation did not account for all of the atoms in a reaction, the reaction could not be used for any type of quantitative analysis. It would also not be really useful since it is supposed to show how the molecules interact and in what quantities.

A diver exhales a bubble with a volume of 250 mL at a pressure of 2.4 atm and a temperature of 15 °C. What is the volume of the

alexdok [17]

Answer : The volume of the bubble is, 625 mL

Explanation :

Combined gas law is the combination of Boyle's law, Charles's law and Gay-Lussac's law.

The combined gas equation is,

$\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}$

where,

$P_1$ = initial pressure of gas = 2.4 atm

$P_2$ = final pressure of gas = 1.0 atm

$V_1$ = initial volume of gas = 250 mL

$V_2$ = final volume of gas = ?

$T_1$ = initial temperature of gas = $15^oC=273+15=288K$

$T_2$ = final temperature of gas = $27^oC=273+27=300K$

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

$\frac{2.4atm\times 250mL}{288K}=\frac{1.0atm\times V_2}{300K}$

$V_2=625mL$

Therefore, the volume of the bubble is, 625 mL

8.43g of CaCl2·2H2O is dissolved in 40.0g of H2O. What is the molality of the solution? (Note that the H2O in the CaCl2·2H2O mus

lara31 [8.8K]

Answer:

[CaCl₂·2H₂O] = 1.43 m

Explanation:

Molality is mol of solute / kg of solvent.

Mass of solvent = 40 g

Let's convert g to kg → 40 g / 1000 = 0.04 kg

Let's determine the moles of solute (mass / molar mass)

8.43 g / 146.98 g/mol = 0.057 mol

Molality = 0.057 mol / 0.04 kg → 1.43

Answer:

3.14 grams of ammonium thiocyanate must be used to react completely with 6.5 g barium hydroxide octahydrate.

Explanation:

$Ba(OH)_2.8H_2O(s)+NH_4SCN(s)\rightarrow Ba(SCN)_2(s)+8H_2O(l)+NH_3(g)$

The balance chemical equation is :

$Ba(OH)_2.8H_2O(s)+2NH_4SCN(s)\rightarrow Ba(SCN)_2(s)+10H_2O(l)+2NH_3(g)$

Mass of barium hydroxide octahydrate = 6.5 g

Moles of barium hydroxide octahydrate = $\frac{6.5 g}{315 g/mol}=0.020635 mol$

According to reaction, 2 moles of ammonium thiocyanate reacts with1 mole of barium hydroxide octahydrate. The 0.020635 moles of barium hydroxide octahydrate will react with:

$\frac{2}{1}\times 0.020635 mol=0.04127 mol$
