agcl molar masA 250.0 g sample of a white solid is known to be a mixture of KNO3, BaCl2, and NaCl. When 100.0 g of this mixture

is dissolved in water and allowed to react with excess H2SO4, 67.3 g of a white precipitate is collected. When the remaining 150.0 g of the mixture is dissolved in water and allowed to react with excess AgNO3, 197.6 g of a second precipitate is collected. (a) What are the formulas of the two precipitates? (b) What is the mass of each substance in the original 250 g mixture?

Answer:

a. BaSO₄ and AgCl.

b. 150.0g of BaCl₂, 50.0g of NaCl and 50.0g of KNO₃

Explanation:

Barium, Ba, from BaCl₂ reacts with the SO₄²⁻ of H₂SO₄ to produce BaSO₄, an insoluble white salt.

The reaction is:

BaCl₂ + H₂SO₄ → BaSO₄ + 2HCl

Also, Chlorides from BaCl₂ (2Cl⁻) and NaCl (1Cl⁻) react with AgNO₃ to produce AgCl, another white insoluble salt, thus:

Cl⁻ + AgNO₃ → AgCl + NO₃⁻

a. Thus, formulas of the two precipitates are: BaSO₄ and AgCl

b. Moles of BaSO₄ in 67.3g (Molar mass BaSO₄: 233.38g/mol) are:

67.3g × (1 mol / 233.38g) = 0.2884 moles of BaSO₄ = moles of BaCl₂ <em>Because 1 mole of BaCl₂ produces 1 mole of BaSO₄</em>

Now, as molar mass of BaCl₂ is 208.23g/mol, the mass of BaCl₂ in the mixture of 100.0g is:

0.2884 moles of BaCl₂ ₓ (208.23g /mol) = 60.0g of BaCl₂ in 100g of the mixture

Moles of the AgCl produced (Molar mass AgCl: 143.32g/mol) are:

197.96g ₓ (1mol / 143.32g) = 1.38 moles of AgCl.

As moles of Cl⁻ that comes from BaCl₂ are 0.2884 moles×2×1.5 (1.5 because the sample is 150.0g not 100.0g as in the initial reaction)

= 0.8652 moles of BaCl₂, that means moles of NaCl are:

1.38mol - 0.8652mol = 0.5148 moles of NaCl (Molar mass 58.44g/mol):

Mass NaCl in 150g =

0.5148mol NaCl × (58.44g/mol) = <em>30.0g of NaCl in 150.0g</em>

<em></em>

That means, in the 250.0g of sample, the mass of BaCl₂ is:

60.0g BaCl₂ ₓ (250.0g / 100g) = <em>150.0g of BaCl₂</em>

Mass of NaCl is:

30.0g NaCl ₓ (250.0g / 150g) =<em> 50.0g of NaCl</em>

<em></em>

As the total mass of the mixture is 250.0g, the another 50.0g must come from KNO₃, thus, there are <em>50.0g of KNO₃.</em>

A decrease in height of a column in a mercury barometer means that
insens350 [35]

Answer:

increase in the air pressure

Explanation:

The barometer is a device that is used for measuring the air pressure. It is a device that uses mercury in order to show the air pressure. The mercury reacts easily to the changes in the air pressure, so it is a nice indicator for it. The air pressure can simply be defined as the weight of the air masses, and the pressure they make it because of it on the objects. The lower the air pressure, the higher up the mercury will go, as it will experience less pressure from the air, and the higher the air pressure, the lower the mercury will drop, as it will experience more pressure from the air.
