Hydrated salts are when salt crystals have water molecules bound. Anhydrous salts are when the water has been removed.
mass of water removed = hydrated salt - anhydrate salt
= 11.75 g - 9.25 g = 2.50 g
number of water moles = 2.50 g / 18 g/mol = 0.139 mol
number of cobalt (II) chloride moles = 9.25 g / 130 g/mol = 0.0712 mol
ratio of water moles to CoCl₂ moles - 0.139 mol / 0.0712 mol = 1.95
rounded off 2 moles of water for every 1 mol of CoCl₂
formula - CoCl₂.2H₂O
name - Cobalt(II) chloride dihydrate
Answer:
A. Intramolecular interactions are generally stronger.
B. a. Only intermolecular interactions are broken when a liquid is converted to a gas.
Explanation:
<em>A. Which is generally stronger, intermolecular interactions or intramolecular interactions?</em>
Intramolecular interactions, in which electrons are gained, lost or shared, constitute true bonds and are one or two orders of magnitude stronger than intermolecular interactions.
<em>B. Which of these kinds of interactions are broken when a liquid is converted to a gas?</em>
When a liquid vaporizes, the intermolecular attractions are broken, that is, molecules get more separated. However, true bonds are not broken which is why the molecules keep their chemical identity.
Answer:
The first one
Explanation:
Elements are as simple as it gets
Yes thats true! You always have to think about the question or project before you start a science experiment! :)
False that atom is the smallest identifiable unit of a compound.
The smallest identifiable unit of a compound is the Element. Element is the one which make up the compound and element is made up by atoms. Example of element is oxygen and hydrogen which make up water (H2O) which is a compound.
