Answer:
3.14
Explanation:
A student was comparing two samples with an equal number of carbon atoms. One sample contained only Carbon-12 atoms. One sample contained only Carbon-14 atoms, which contain two more neutrons than Carbon-12 atoms. The student measured the mass of each sample and testing the reactivity of each sample.
Required:
What would best describe the results of the investigation?
Answer:
a) 7.0.
b) Nickel sulfate hepta hydrate.
c) 280.83 g/mol.
d) 44.9%.
Explanation:
<u><em>a) What is the formula of the hydrate?</em></u>
The mass of the hydrated sample (NiSO₄.xH₂O) = 5.0 g,
The mass of the anhydrous salt (NiSO₄) = 2.755 g,
The mass of water = 5.0 g - 2.755 g = 2.245 g.
∴ no. of moles of water = mass/molar mass = (2.245 g)/(18.0 g/mol) = 0.1247 mol.
∴ no. of moles of anhydrous salt (NiSO₄) = mass/molar mass = (2.755 g)/(154.75 g/mol) = 0.0178 mol.
∴ water of crystallization in the sample (x) = no. of moles of water/no. of moles of anhydrous salt (NiSO₄) = (0.1247 mol)/(0.0178 mol) = 7.0.
<u><em>b) What is the full chemical name for the hydrate?</em></u>
The name of the salt (NiSO₄.7H₂O) is Nickel sulfate hepta hydrate.
<u><em>c) What is the molar mass of the hydrate? </em></u>
(NiSO₄.7H₂O)
The molar mass = molar mass of NiSO₄ + 7(molar mass of H₂O) = (154.75 g/mol) + 7(18.0 g/mol) = 280.83 g/mol.
<em><u>d) What is the mass % of water in the hydrate?</u></em>
The mass % of water = (mass of water)/(mass of hydrated sample) x 100 = (2.245 g)/(5.0 g) x 100 = 44.9%.
The protons come from water. Sulfur oxides dissolve in water to form sulfurous and sulfuric acids, and nitrogen oxides dissolve to form nitrous and nitric acids.
The correct answer is suspensions only. The suspension is a heterogeneous mixture that contains solid particles that are largely enough to undergo sedimentation. Usually, these particles are about one micrometer which makes these solute to be very easy to be free from their solvent and be filtered.
