The correct answer is reaction 2 most likely occurred in their experiment.

So the given two reactions are as follows:

1) Au³⁺(aq) + Co(s) --> Au(s) + Co³⁺(aq)

2) 2Au³⁺(aq) + 3Co(s) --> 2Au(s) + 3Co³⁺(aq)

Mass of Co = 6.087 g

Molar mass of Co = 58.933 g/mol

Moles of Co =\frac{6.087 g}{58.933 g/mol} = 0.1032

Mass of Au = 13.572 g

Molar mass of Au = 196.967 g/mol

Moles of Au = \frac{13.572 g}{196.967 g/mol} = 0.069

Now based on reaction 1) the molar ratio between Co and Au is 1:1

So as per this reaction 0.1032 moles of Co would produce 0.1032 mole of Au

Again based on reaction 2) the molar ratio between Co and Au is 3:2

So as per this reaction 0.1032 moles of Co would produce \frac{2 x 0.1032}{3} mole of Au

or, As per the second reaction 0.1032 moles of Co would produce 0.0688 moles of Au

What is the molarity of a 3.0 solution of magnesium chloride prepared with 9.0 molecules of MgCl2 A. 6.0 M B. 3.0 M C. 27.0 M D.
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

Option B. 3.0 M

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Volume of solution = 3.0 L

Mole of MgCl₂ = 9 moles

Molarity =?

Molarity can simply be defined as the mole of solute per unit litre of the solution. Mathematically, it can be expressed as:

Molarity = mole of solute /Volume of solution

With the above formula, we can obtain the molarity of the solution as follow:

Volume of solution = 3.0 L

Mole of MgCl₂ = 9 moles

Molarity =?

Molarity = mole of solute /Volume of solution

Molarity = 9 / 3

Molarity = 3 mol/L = 3.0 M

Thus, the molarity of the solution is 3 M
