Answer:

Fe²⁺(aq) + 2OH⁻(aq) → Fe(OH)₂(s)

Explanation:

To determine the reaction, we define the reactants:

FeCl₂, NaOH

We dissociate them:

FeCl₂(aq) → Fe²⁺(aq) + 2Cl⁻ (aq)

NaOH (aq) → Na⁺ (aq) + OH⁻(aq)

Salts from chloride are soluble, except for Ag⁺, Pb²⁺, Hg₂²⁺, Cu⁺

The OH⁻ and the Fe²⁺ bonds to make a precipitate.

So, the molecular complete equation is:

FeCl₂(aq) + 2NaOH(aq) → Fe(OH)₂(s) ↓ + 2NaCl(aq)

When we dissociate the elements, we get the net ionic equation but as we produced an state's change, the compound stays the same.

We cancel the spectators ions (the ones, that are repeated)

Fe²⁺(aq) + 2Cl⁻ (aq) + 2Na⁺ (aq) + 2OH⁻(aq) → Fe(OH)₂(s) + 2Na⁺(aq) + 2Cl⁻(aq)

Fe²⁺(aq) + 2OH⁻(aq) → Fe(OH)₂(s)

How much energy is evolved during the formation of 197 g of Fe, according to the reaction below?

hoa [83]

Answer:

ΔH for formation of 197g Fe⁰ = 1.503 x 10³ Kj => Answer choice 'B'

Explanation:

Given Fe₂O₃(s) + 2Al⁰(s) => Al₂O₃(s) + 2Fe⁰(s) + 852Kj

197g Fe⁰ = (197g/55.85g/mol) = 3.527 mol Fe⁰(s)

From balanced standard equation 2 moles Fe⁰(s) => 852Kj, then ...

3.527 mole yield (a higher mole value) => (3.527/2) x 852Kj = 1,503Kj (a higher enthalpy value).

______

NOTE => If 2 moles Fe gives 852Kj (exo) as specified in equation, then a higher energy value would result if the moles of Fe⁰(s) is higher than 2 moles. The ratio of 3.638/2 will increase the listed equation heat value to a larger number because 197g Fe⁰(s) contains more than 2 moles of Fe⁰(s) => 3.527 mole Fe(s) in 197g. Had the problem asked for the heat loss from less than two moles Fe⁰(s) - say 100g Fe⁰(s) (=1.79mole Fe⁰(s)) - then one would use the fractional ratio (1.79/2) to reduce the enthalpy value less than 852Kj.

A 26.08 g mixture of zinc and sodium is reacted with a stoichiometric amount of sulfuric acid. The reaction mixture is then reac

Over [174]

Answer:

Molar percent of sodium in original mixture is 88,50%

Explanation:

The last reaction is:

BaCl₂ + Na₂SO₄ → BaSO₄ + 2 NaCl

The moles of BaCl₂ are:

0,132L × 3,80M = 0,502 moles of BaCl₂

As the amount of BaCl₂ is the maximum possible to produce BaSO₄, the moles of BaCl₂ must be the same than moles of Na₂SO₄.

0,502 moles of BaCl₂ ≡ 0,502 moles of Na₂SO₄

These moles of Na₂SO₄ comes from:

2 Na + H₂SO₄ → Na₂SO₄ + H₂

As the reaction is in stoichiometric amounts, moles of Na are twice the moles of Na₂SO₄

0,502 moles of Na₂SO₄ × $\frac{2molesNa}{1moleNa_{2}SO_{4}}$ × 22,99 g/mole = 23,08 g of Na

Molar percent of sodium in original mixture is:

$\frac{23,08g}{26,08g}*100$ = 88,50%

I hope it helps

Consider the following electron configurations to answer the questions that follow: (i) 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s1 (ii) 1s2 2s2 2p6 3s2 (ii

Ahat [919]

Option (i) would have the highest 2nd Ionization Energy.

Option (i) is Sodium.

Can be Written as 2, 8 , 1

For its 1st Ionization energy... It'd be extremely easy to remove that Electron cos its on the outermost shell.

Now After Removing that Electron...

Sodium's Electronic Configuration Reduces to that of Neon Which is 2, 8.

Neon has a very stable Octet.

It would take an ENORMOUS amount of energy to break its Octet stability... that is... Remove 1 electron from its Octet.

Option (i) [Sodium] has the highest 2nd Ionization Energy

How many moles are found in a 100.0-g sample of CuF2?

ivolga24 [154]

To determine the amount of a substance in units of moles from units of grams, we need to determine the molar mass of the substance. The molar mass is the mass of a given chemical element or chemical compound (g) divided by the amount of substance (mol). For CuF2, the molar mass 101.543 g/mol. We calculate as follows:

100.0 g CuF2 ( 1 mol / 101.543 g) = 0.98 mol CuF2

An atom's nucleus has 92 protons and its mass number is 235. how many neutrons are in the nucleus? what is the name of the atom

STALIN [3.7K]

The mass number is the sum of the protons and neutrons in an atom. 235-92 = 143 neutrons.
Element 92 is Uranium.

Uranium is also the highest atomic number element which exists in nature. All of the rest above element 92 only exist nuclear high-energy reactions (the transuranium elements), and most experience nuclear decay very quickly and form other elements with fewer protons.
