1) Write the balanced chemical equation
2HCl + Na2 CO3 ----------> 2NaCl + H2CO3
2) Write the molar ratios:
2 mol HCl : 1 mol Na2CO3 : 2 mol NaCl : 1 mol H2CO3
3) Convert 0.15g of sodium carbonate to number of moles
3a) Calculate the molar mass of Na2CO3
Na: 2 * 23 g/mol = 46 g/mol
C: 12 g/mol =
O: 3 * 16 g/mol = 48 g/mol
molar mass = 46g/mol + 12g/mol + 48g/mol = 106 g/mol
3b.- Calculate the number of moles of Na2CO3
# moles = grams / molar mass = 0.15 g / 106 g/mol = 0.0014 mol Na2CO3
4) Calculate the number of moles of HCl from the molar proportion:
[0.0014 mol Na2CO3] * [2 mol HCl / 1 mol Na2CO3] = 0.0028 mol HCl
5) Calculate the volume of HCl from the definition of Molarity
Molarity, M = # moles / volume in liters
=> Volume in liters = # moles / M = 0.0028 mol / 0.1 M = 0.028 liters
0.028 liters * 1000 ml / liter = 28 ml.
Answer: 28 mililiters of 0.1 M HCl.
a pure compound because an element is untouched and is just itself
Answer:
renewable resources are abundant???
Answer:
- <u>Tellurium (Te) and iodine (I) are two elements </u><em><u>next to each other that have decreasing atomic masses.</u></em>
Explanation:
The <em>atomic mass</em> of tellurium (Te) is 127.60 g/mol and the atomic mass of iodine (I) is 126.904 g/mol; so, in spite of iodine being to the right of tellurium in the periodic table (because the atomic number of iodine is bigger than the atomic number of tellurium), the atomic mass of iodine is less than the atomic mass of tellurium.
The elements are arranged in increasing order of atomic number in the periodic table.
The atomic number is equal to the number of protons and the mass number is the sum of the protons and neutrons.
The mass number, except for the mass defect, represents the atomic mass of a particular isotope. But the atomic mass of an element is the weighted average of the atomic masses of the different natural isotopes of the element.
Normally, as the atomic number increases, you find that the atomic mass increases, so most of the elements in the periodic table, which as said are arranged in icreasing atomic number order, match with increasing atomic masses. But the relative isotope abundaces of the elements can change that.
It is the case that the most common isotopes of tellurium have atomic masses 128 amu and 130 amu, whilst most common isotopes of iodine have an atomic mass 127 amu. As result, tellurium has an average atomic mass of 127.60 g/mol whilst iodine has an average atomic mass of 126.904 g/mol.
