Explain your reasoning for your formula prediction for Ba+2 and S-2

Chemistry
2 answers:
Luba_88 [7]3 years ago

Answer: BaS

Explanation:

For formation of a neutral ionic compound, the charges on cation and anion must be balanced. The cation is formed by loss of electrons by metals and anions are formed by gain of electrons by non metals.  

Here barium is having an oxidation state of +2 called as Ba^{2+} cation and sulphide S^{2-} is an anion with oxidation state of -2. Thus they combine and their oxidation states are exchanged and written in simplest whole number ratios to give neutral BaS.

The cations and anions being oppositely charged attract each other through strong coloumbic forces and form an ionic bond.

The bond dissociation energy to break 4 bond(s) in 1 mole of CH₄ molecules is:_____ **Any help would be greatly appreciated!**
frozen [14]

Answer:

The bond dissociation energy to break 4 bonds in 1 mol of CH is 1644 kJ

Explanation:

Since there are 4 C-H bonds in CH₄, the bond dissociation energy of 1 mol of CH₄ is 4 × bond dissociation energy of one C-H bond.

From the table one mole is C-H bond requires 411 kJ, that is 411 kJ/mol. Therefore, 4 C-H bonds would require 4 × 411 kJ = 1644 kJ

So, the bond dissociation energy to break 4 bonds in 1 mol of CH₄ is 1644 kJ

Chalcopyrite is an ore with the composition cufes2. what is the percentage of iron in a 39.6 g sample of this ore? answer in uni
iren2701 [21]
<span>Well it depends on percentage by what, but I'll just assume that it's percentage by mass. For this, we look at the atomic masses of the elements present in the compound. Cu has an atomic mass of 63.546 amu Fe has 55.845 amu and S has 36.065 amu Since there are 2 molecules of Sulfur for each one of Cu and Fe, we'll multiply the Sulfur atomic weight by 2 to obtain 72.13 amu So we have not established the mass of the compound in amus 63.546 + 55.845 + 72.13 = 191.521 That is the atomic mass of Chalcopyrite. and Iron's atomic mass is 55.845 So to get the percentage, or fraction of iron, we take 55.845 / 191.521 Which comes out to 29.15% by mass Mass of the sample is not needed for this calculation, but since the question mentions it I would go ahead and check if the question isn't also asking for the mass of Iron in the sample as well, in which case you just find the 29.15% of 67.7g</span>

If 5.85 grams of cobalt metal react with 15.8 grams of silver nitrate, how many grams of silver metal can be formed and how many
vladimir2022 [97]
Answers:
<span>Answer 1: 10.03 g of siver metal can be formed.</span>
Answer 2: 3.11 g of Co are left over.

Work:

1) Unbalanced chemical equation (given):

<span>Co + AgNO3 → Co(NO3)2 + Ag

2) Balanced chemical equation
</span>
<span>Co + 2AgNO3 → Co(NO3)2 + 2Ag

3) mole ratios

1 mol Co : 2 mole AgNO3 : 1 mol Co(NO3)2 : 2 mol Ag

4) Convert the masses in grams of the reactants into number of moles

4.1) 5.85 grams of Co

# moles = mass in grams / atomic mass

atomic mass of Co = 58.933 g/mol

# moles Co = 5.85 g / 58.933 g/mol = 0.0993 mol

4.2) 15.8 grams of Ag(NO3)

# moles Ag(NO3) = mass in grams / molar mass

molar mass AgNO3 = 169.87 g/mol

# moles Ag(NO3) = 15.8 g / 169.87 g/mol = 0.0930 mol

5) Limiting reactant

Given the mole ratio 1 mol Co : 2 mol Ag(NO3) you can conclude that there is not enough Ag(NO3) to make all the Co react.

That means that Ag(NO3) is the limiting reactant, which means that it will be consumed completely, whilce Co is the excess reactant.

6) Product formed.

Use this proportion:

2 mol Ag(NO3)           0.0930mol Ag(NO3)    
--------------------- =      ---------------------------
    2 mol Ag                              x

=> x = 0.0930 mol

Convert 0.0930 mol Ag to grams:

mass Ag = # moles * atomic mass = 0.0930 mol * 107.868 g/mol = 10.03 g

Answer 1: 10.03 g of siver metal can be formed.

6) Excess reactant left over

    1 mol Co                             x
----------------------- =  ----------------------------
2 mole Ag(NO3)       0.0930 mol Ag(NO3)

=> x = 0.0930 / 2 mol Co = 0.0465 mol Co reacted

Excess = 0.0993 mol - 0.0465 mol = 0.0528 mol

Convert to grams:

0.0528 mol * 58.933 g/mol = 3.11 g

Answer 2: 3.11 g of Co are left over.
