The reaction of acid, assuming HCl and calcium carbonate always produces a gas. The reaction is as follows:
2 HCl + CaCO3 --> CaCl2 + H2CO3
H2CO3, carbonic acid, is a weak acid that is unstable in water solutions at high concentrations. As such, it decomposes:
H2CO3 --> H2O + CO2
Then,
2 HCl + CaCO3 --> CaCl2 + H2O + CO2
The total ionic equation looks as follows:
2H+(aq) + 2 Cl-(aq) + CaCO3(s) --> Ca+2(aq) + 2 Cl-(aq) + H2O(l) + CO2(g)
Clearly, Cl- is a spectator ion as it is unchanged in the reaction. The net ionic reaction looks as follows:
2 H+(aq) + CaCO3(s) --> Ca+2(aq) + H2O(l) + CO2(g)
Answer:
The molecule has a bent geometry
Explanation:
Let us look again at the principles of VSEPR theory. The shape of a molecule depends on the number of electron pairs that surround the valence shell of the central atom in the molecule.
Lone pairs distort the molecular geometry away from what is expected on the basis of VSEPR theory.
The molecule described in the question has the form AEX2. Two substituents and one lone pair form three electron domains around the central atom. The expected geometry is trigonal planar but the observed molecular geometry is bent because of the lone pairs present.
<span>1.86 moles of hydrogen gas.
Since what the HCl is reacting with hasn't been mentioned, I'll assume zine. In that case, the balanced reaction is
Zn + 2HCl ==> ZnCl2 + H2
So for every 2 moles of HCl used, 1 mole of hydrogen gas will be generated. So let's figure out how many moles of HCl we have and then divide by 2.
Molarity is defined as moles/liter. So a 2.75 M HCl solution has 2.75 moles of HCl per liter. So the total number of moles we have is:
2.75 mole/L * 1.35 L = 3.7125 mol
And since we get 1 mole H2 per mole of HCl, we get:
3.7125 mol / 2 = 1.85625 mol
Rounding to 3 significant figures gives us 1.86 moles of hydrogen gas.</span>
Answer:
Explanation:
Volume of silver cube = 2.42³ = 14.17 cm³
mass of silver cube = volume x density
= 14.17 x 10.49 = 148.64 gm
Volume of gold cube = 2.75³ = 20.8 cm³
mass of gold cube = 20.8 x 19.3 = 401.44 gm
specific heat of silver and gold are .24 and .129 J /g°C
mass of 112 mL water = 112 g
Heat absorbed = heat lost = mass x specific heat x temperature fall or rise
Heat lost by metals
= 148.64 x .24 x ( 85.4 -T) + 401.44 x .129 x ( 85.4 - T )
= (35.67 + 51.78 ) x ( 85.4 - T )
87.45 x ( 85.4 - T )
= 7468.23 - 87.45 T
Heat gained by water
= 112 x 1 x ( T - 20.5 )
= 112 T - 2296
Heat lost = heat gained
7468.23 - 87.45 T = 112 T - 2296
199.45 T = 9764.23
T = 48.95° C
