Answer: The metallic oxide formed will be $Cu_2O$

Explanation:

We are given a metallic oxide, having general chemical formula $M_2O_n$

We are given:

Mass of metallic oxide = 1.187 g

Mass of metal = 1.054 g

Mass of oxygen = 1.187 - 1.054 = 0.133 g

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$ .......(1)

Given mass of oxygen = 0.133 g

Molar mass of oxygen = 16 g/mol

Putting values equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of oxygen}=\frac{0.133g}{16g/mol}=0.0083mol$

Number of moles of metal in the oxide is twice than the number of moles of oxygen

Number of moles of metal = $(2\times 0.0083)=0.0166$ moles

Now, calculating the molar mass of metal by using equation 1, we get:

Moles of metal = 0.0166 moles

Mass of metal = 1.054 g

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.0166mol=\frac{1.054g}{\text{Molar mass of metal}}\\\\\text{Molar mass of metal}=\frac{1.054g}{0.0166mol}=63.49g/mol$

The metal having 63.49 g/mol as molar mass is copper

Hence, the metallic oxide formed will be $Cu_2O$

Mass O = 1.187 - 1.054 = 0.133 g
Moles O = 0.133 g / 16 g/mol = 0.00831 
Moles metal = 2 x 0.00831 = 0.0166 
Atomic mass metal = 1.054 g / 0.0166 = 63.4 g/mol 
( this is the atomic mass of Cu) 
so the metal oxide is Cu2O

In an acid-base titration, a student uses 21.35 mL of 0.150 M NaOH to neutralize 25.00 mL of H2SO4. How many moles of acid are i

GalinKa [24]

Answer: There are 0.006 moles of acid in the flask.

Explanation:

Given: $V_{1}$ = 21.35 mL, $M_{1}$ = 0.150 M

$V_{2}$ = 25.0 mL, $M_{2}$ = ?

Formula used to calculate molarity of $H_{2}SO_{4}$ is as follows.

$M_{1}V_{1} = M_{2}V_{2}$

Substitute the values into above formula as follows.

$M_{1}V_{1} = M_{2}V_{2}\\0.15 M \times 21.35 mL = M_{2} \times 25.0 mL\\M_{2} = 0.1281 M$

As molarity is the number of moles of a substance present in a liter of solution.

Total volume of solution = $V_{1} + V_{2}$

= 21.35 mL + 25.0 mL

= 46.36 mL (1 mL = 0.001 L)

= 0.04636 L

Therefore, moles of acid required are calculated as follows.

$Molarity = \frac{no. of moles}{Volume (in L)}\\0.1281 M = \frac{no. of moles}{0.04635 L}\\no. of moles = 0.006 mol$

Thus, we can conclude that there are 0.006 moles of acid in the flask.

A container initially holds 1.24mol of hydrogen gas and has a volume of 27.8L. Hydrogen gas was added to the container, and the

Fantom [35]

Answer:

After increasing the volume, we have 1.81 moles of hydrogen gas in the container

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Number of moles hydrogen gas (H2) = 1.24 moles

Volume of hydrogen gas (H2° = 27.8 L

The final volume is increas to 40.6 L

Step 2: Calculate the new number of moles

V1/n1 = V2/n2

⇒with V1 = the initial volume = 27.8 L

⇒with n1 = the initial number of moles H2 = 1.24 moles

⇒with V2 = the final volume = 40.6 L

⇒with n2 = the new number of moles = TO BE DETERMINED

27.8L / 1.24 moles = 40.6 L / n2

n2 = 40.6 / (27.8/1.24)

n2= 1.81 moles

After increasing the volume, we have 1.81 moles of hydrogen gas in the container
