Suppose you begin with 1.50~g of the hydrate copper(II)sulfate · x-hydrate (CuSO4· x H2O), where x is an integer. After dehydrat

ion you find that you are left with 0.96~g of the an-hydrate CuSO4. What is the unknown integer x. Round your answer to the nearest integer, enter only an integer.
Suppose you begin with of the hydrate KAl(SO4)2 · 12H2O. After dehydration you find that you are left with 3.0~g of the an-hydrate KAl(SO4)2. How many grams did you start with? Write the value to the correct number of significance figures.

These are two questions and two answers.

Question 1.

Answer: x = 5

Explanation:

1) Data:

m₁ = 1.50 g

compound₁: CuSO₄· x H₂O

m₂ = 0.96g

compound₂ = CuSO₄

x = ? (round to the nearest integer)

2) Solution:

i) molar mass of CuSO₄ = 63.546g/mol + 32.065g/mol + 4×15.999g/mol = 159.607g/mol

ii) number of moles of CuSO₄

number of moles = mass in grams / molar mass = 1.50 g/ 159.607 g/mol = 0.006265 mol

iii) molar mass of H₂O = 18.015 g/mol

iv) mass of H₂O = 1.50g - 0.96g = 0.54g

v) number of moles of H₂O = mass in grams / molar mass = 0.54 g / 18.015 g/mol = 0.0300 mol

vi) Ratio moles H₂O / moles CuSO₄ = 0.0300 / 0.0062625 ≈ 5

∴ x = 5.

Question 2.

Answer: 5.5 g

1) Data:

compound₁ = KAl(SO₄)₂ · 12H₂O.

compound₂ = KAl(SO₄)₂

m₂ = 3.0 g KAl(SO₄)₂

m₁ = ? (two significant figures)

2) Solution:

i) molar mass of KAl(SO₄)₂ = 39.098g/mol + 26.982g/mol + 2×32.065g/mol + 8×15.999g/mol = 258.202

ii) number of moles of KAl(SO₄)₂ = mass in grams / molar mass = 3.0g / 258.202 = 0.011619 mol

iii) number of moles of H₂O = 12 × number of moles of KAl(SO₄)₂ = 12 × 0.011619*12 mol = 0.1394 moles

iv) mass of H₂O = number of moles × molar mass = 0.1394 moles × 18.015 g/mol = 2.5 g (rounded to two significant figures)

v) mass of the original compound = mass of KAl(SO₄)₂ + mass of H₂O = 5.5g

Answer:

From least polar covalent to most polar covalent;

S-I< Br-Cl < N-H< Te-O

From most ionic to least ionic

Cs-F> Sr-Cl> Li- N> Al-O

Explanation:

Electro negativity refers to the ability of an atom in a bond to attract the shared electrons of the bond towards itself.

Electro negativity difference between two atoms is a key player in the nature of bond that exists between any two atoms. A large difference in electron negativity leads to an ionic bond while an intermediate difference in electro negativity leads to a polar covalent bond.

Based on electro negativity differences, the bonds in the answer have been arranged in order of increasing polar covalent nature or decreasing ionic nature.

For each chemical equation below, write the number of product molecules that will form from the reaction.
Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

a. 5 moles of CO₂

b. 2 moles of NaCl

c. 3 moles of H₂CO₃

Explanation:

1a. Carbon reacts with oxygen to produce carbon dioxide according to equation below:

C + O₂ ----> CO₂

From the equation of reaction, one mole of carbon reacts with one mole of oxygen to produce one mole of carbon dioxide.

In the given reaction, therefore, 5 moles of carbon will only react with 5 moles of oxygen to produce 5 moles of carbon dioxide. Oxygen is in excess, carbon is the limiting reactant and 5 moles of carbon dioxide are produced. The equation is given below :

5 C + 6 O₂ ---> 5 CO₂

1b. Sodium reacts with chlorine to produce sodium chloride according to the equation below:

2 Na + Cl₂ ---> NaCl

From the equation of reaction, 2 moles of sodium reacts with one mole of chlorine to produce one mole of sodium chloride.

In the given reaction, therefore, 4 moles of sodium will react with only 2 moles of chlorine to produce 2 moles of sodium chloride. Chlorine is in excess, sodium is the limiting reactant and 2 moles of sodium chloride are produced. The equation is given as follows: 4 Na + 8 Cl₂ ---> 2 NaCl

1c. Carbon dioxide reacts with water to produce carbonic acid according to the equation: CO₂ + H₂O ---> H₂CO₃

From the equation of reaction one mole of carbon dioxide reacts with one mole of water to produce one mole of carbonic acid.

In the given reaction, therefore, 3 moles of carbon dioxide will react with only 3 moles of water to produce 3 moles of carbonic acid. Water is in excess, carbon dioxide is the limiting reactant and 3 moles of carbonic acid are produced. The equation is given as follows: 3 CO₂ + 4 H₂O ---> 3 H₂CO₃
