You are given a solid that is a mixture of Na2SO4 and K2SO4. A 0.205-g sample of the mixture is dissolved in water. An excess of

an aqueous solution of BaCl2 is added. The BaSO4 that is formed is filtered, dried, and weighed. Its mass is 0.298 g. What mass of SO4 22 ion is in the sample? What is the mass percent of SO4 22 ion in the sample? What are the percent compositions by mass of Na2SO4 and K2SO4 in the sample

Answer:

Mass of SO₄⁻² = 0.123 g.

Mass percentage of SO₄⁻² = 41.2%

Mass of Na₂SO₄ = 0.0773 g

Mass of K₂SO₄ = 0.1277 g

Explanation:

Here we have

We place Na₂SO₄ = X and

K₂SO₄ = Y

Therefore

X +Y = 0.205 .........(1)

Therefore since the BaSO₄ is formed from BaCl₂, Na₂SO₄ and K₂SO₄ we have

Amount of BaSO₄ from Na₂SO₄ is therefore;

X\times\frac{Molar \, Mass \, of \, BaSO_4}{Molar \, Mass \, of \, Na_2SO_4}

Amount of BaSO₄ from K₂SO₄ is;

Y\times\frac{Molar \, Mass \, of \, BaSO_4}{Molar \, Mass \, of \, K_2SO_4}

Molar mass of

BaSO₄ = 233.38 g/mol

Na₂SO₄ = 142.04 g/mol

K₂SO₄ = 174.259 g/mol

X\times\frac{Molar \, Mass \, of \, BaSO_4}{Molar \, Mass \, of \, Na_2SO_4} = X\times\frac{233.38 }{142.04} = 1.643·X

Y\times\frac{Molar \, Mass \, of \, BaSO_4}{Molar \, Mass \, of \, K_2SO_4} = Y\times\frac{233.38 }{174.259 } = 1.339·Y

Therefore, we have

1.643·X + 1.339·Y = 0.298 g.....(2)

Solving equations (1) and (2) gives

The mass of SO₄⁻² in the sample is given by

Mass of sample = 0.298

Molar mass of BaSO₄ = 233.38 g/mol

Mass of Ba = 137.327 g/mol

∴ Mass of SO₄ = 233.38 g - 137.327 g = 96.05 g

Mass fraction of SO₄⁻² in BaSO₄ = 96.05 g/233.38 g = 0.412

Mass of SO₄⁻² in the sample is 0.412×0.298 = 0.123 g.

Percentage mass of SO₄⁻² = 41.2%

Solving equations (1) and (2) gives

X = 0.0773 g and Y = 0.1277 g.

.) Neon and HF have approximately the same molecular masses. a.)Explain why the boiling points of Neon and HF differ b.)Compare
lisov135 [29]

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

a) The magnitude of intermolecular forces in compounds affects the boiling points of the compound. Neon has London dispersion forces as the only intermolecular forces operating in the substance while HF has dipole dipole interaction and strong hydrogen bonds operating in the molecule hence HF exhibits a much higher boiling point than Ne though they have similar molecular masses.

b) The boiling points of the halogen halides are much higher than that of the noble gases because the halogen halides have much higher molecular masses and stronger intermolecular forces between molecules compared to the noble gases.

Also, the change in boiling point of the hydrogen halides is much more marked(decreases rapidly)  due to decrease in the magnitude of hydrogen bonding from HF to HI. The boiling point of the noble gases increases rapidly down the group as the molecular mass of the gases increases.
