Dissolving brass requires an oxidizing acid such as concentrated nitric acid. Nitrogen dioxide is produced as a byproduct in thi

polet [3.4K]

Answer:

Cu + 4 HNO₃ → Cu(NO₃)₂ + 2 NO₂ + 2 H₂O

Explanation:

Step 1: Write down the chemical formulas of given substances,

Copper Metal = Cu

Nitric Acid = HNO₃

Copper (II) Nitrate = Cu(NO₃)₂

Nitrogen Dioxide = NO₂

Water = H₂O

Step 2: Write down the unbalance Chemical equation,

Cu + HNO₃ → Cu(NO₃)₂ + NO₂ + H₂O

Step 3: Balance Cu atoms on both sides;

The number of Cu atoms on both sides are same. Hence, there number will remain the same.

Step 4: Balance N atoms on both sides;

As there is 1 N atom on left hand side and 3 N atoms on right hand side, so we will multiply HNO₃ by 3 to balance N on both sides, hence,

Cu + 3 HNO₃ → Cu(NO₃)₂ + NO₂ + H₂O

Step 5: Balance O atoms on both sides;

As there are 9 O atom on left hand side and 9 O atoms on right hand side, so they are balance.

Step 6: Balance H atoms on both sides;

As there are 3 H atom on left hand side and 2 H atoms on right hand side, so we will multiply H₂O by 2 as,

Cu + 3 HNO₃ → Cu(NO₃)₂ + NO₂ + 2 H₂O

By doing so the number of O atoms got imbalanced, so to balance O atoms again we will multiply HNO₃ by 4 as,

Cu + 4 HNO₃ → Cu(NO₃)₂ + NO₂ + 2 H₂O

Now, The Cu and H atoms are balanced, and the O atoms are greater on left hand side and the N atoms are greater on right hand side, therefore we will multiply NO₂ by 2 to balance both N and O as,

Cu + 4 HNO₃ → Cu(NO₃)₂ + 2 NO₂ + 2 H₂O

What is the mass of 4.99×1021 platinum atoms?

charle [14.2K]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 1.62 \ g \ Pt}}$

Explanation:

We are asked to find the mass of a number of platinum (Pt) atoms.

<h3>1. Convert Atoms to Moles </h3>

First, we convert atoms to moles using Avogadro's Number or 6.022 × 10²³. This is the number of particles (atoms, molecules, formula units, etc.) in 1 mole of a substance. In this case, the particles are platinum atoms.

We will convert using dimensional analysis so we set up a ratio using the information we know (6.022 × 10²³ platinum atoms in 1 mole of platinum).

$\frac {6.022 \times 10^{23} \ atoms \ Pt}{ 1 \ mol \ Pt}$

We are converting 4.99 ×10²¹ atoms of Pt to moles of Pt, so we multiply by this value.

$4.99 \times 10^{21} \ atoms \ Pt *\frac {6.022 \times 10^{23} \ atoms \ Pt}{ 1 \ mol \ Pt}$

Flip the ratio so the units of atoms of platinum cancel.

$4.99 \times 10^{21} \ atoms \ Pt *\frac { 1 \ mol \ Pt}{6.022 \times 10^{23} \ atoms \ Pt}$

$4.99 \times 10^{21} *\frac { 1 \ mol \ Pt}{6.022 \times 10^{23}}$

$\frac { 4.99 \times 10^{21}}{6.022 \times 10^{23}} \ mol \ Pt$

Divide.

$0.008286283627 \ mol \ Pt$

<h3>2. Convert Moles to Grams </h3>

Next, we convert moles to grams using the molar mass. This is the mass of 1 mole of a substance. This is found on the Periodic Table because it is equivalent to the atomic mass, but the units are grams per mole instead of atomic mass units. Look up platinum's molar mass.

Pt: 195.08 g/mol

Set up another ratio using this new information (195.08 grams of Pt in 1 mole of Pt).

$\frac {195.08 \ g \ Pt}{ 1 \ mol \ Pt}$

Multiply by the number of moles we just calculated.

$0.008286283627 \ mol \ Pt*\frac {195.08 \ g \ Pt}{ 1 \ mol \ Pt}$

The units of moles of platinum cancel.

$0.008286283627*\frac {195.08 \ g \ Pt}{ 1 }$

$0.008286283627* {195.08 \ g \ Pt}$

$1.61648821\ g \ Pt$

<h3>3. Round</h3>

The original measurement of atoms ( 4.99 ×10²¹ ) has 3 significant figures, so our answer must have the same. For the number we found, that is the hundredth place. The 6 in the thousandth place tells us to round the 1 up to a 2.

$1.62 \ g \ Pt$

There are approximately <u>1.62 grams of platinum</u> in 4.99 ×10²¹ atoms of platinum.
