Two chemist are trying to determine if their water sample is a mixture or pure substance. In their investigation they first filt

er the sample of dirty water with gravel. The water is then clearer then before. See image. What does this change tell the chemist about the chemical make up of the sample
The dirty water is only a mixture because it was not completely filtered by the gravel.


Dirty water is a mixture of solid particles and liquid. It is both a mixture and pure substance.


More information is needed to answer the question.


The dirty water is only a pure substance now that it has been filtered by the gravel

The correct answer is option B. Dirty water is a mixture of solid particles and liquid. It is both a mixture and pure substance.

The dirty water sample has both gravel and liquid water in it. After filtration the gravel is removed so the water sample looks clearer than before filtration. Liquid water is a pure substance because it is a compound that is made up of elements hydrogen and oxygen. Now the gravel is only physically combined with the liquid water, thus giving the water sample properties of a mixture. And like any mixture, gravel is physically separated through filtration from the liquid water.

Thus the water sample of the chemists is both a mixture and pure substance.

How many grams of Cl2 must react to produce 0.0923 mol of AlCl3? Show work.
alexandr402 [8]

First, let's state the chemical reaction:

2Al+3Cl_2\to2AlCl_3\text{.}

We can find the number of moles of Cl2 required to produce 0.0923 moles of AlCl3, doing a rule of three: 3 moles of Cl2 reacted produces 2 moles of AlCl3:

\begin{gathered} 3molesCl_2\to2molesAlCl_3 \\ \text{?moles Cl}_2\to0.0923\text{ moles }AlCl_3\text{.} \end{gathered}

The calculation would be:

0.0923molesAlCl_3\cdot\frac{3molesCl_2}{2molesAlCl_3}=0.138molesCl_2.

And the final step is to convert this number of moles to grams. Remember that the molar mass can be calculated using the periodic table, so the molar mass of Cl2 is 70.8 g/mol, and the conversion is:

0.138molesCl_2\cdot\frac{70.8gCl_2}{1molCl_2}=9.770gCl_2.

The answer is that we need 9.770 grams of Cl2 to produce 0.0923 moles of AlCl3.

Which experimental feature of the MALDI-MS technique allows the separation of ions formed after the adduction of tissue molecule
34kurt

Answer:

The experimental feature of the MALDI-MS technique which allows the separation of ions formed after the adduction of tissue molecules:

B) Velocity of ions depends on the ion mass-to-charge ratio.

Explanation:

  • The option a is not correct as distance traveled by ions doesn't depend upon the ion charge rather it depends upon time for which you leave the sample to run.
  • The  option b is correct as velocity of ions depends on the ion mass-to-charge ratio because separation is done due to mass to charge ratio feature.
  • The option c is incorrect as time of travel is not inversely proportional to the ion-to-mass ratio because the ion will move across the gel until you stop the electric field.
  • The option d is not correct as electric field between MALDI plate and MS analyzer is though uniform but this feature doesn't allow the separation of ions.

How many total moles of ions are released when the following sample dissolves completely in water?
pogonyaev

Answer:

                      8.55 × 10²⁴ Ions

Explanation:

                    Ammonium Chloride is an ionic compound which contains a monatomic anion (Cl⁻ ; Chloride) and a polyatomic cation (NH₄⁺ ; Ammonium).

Hence, when added in water Ammonium Chloride ionizes as;

                                      NH₄Cl   →    NH₄⁺  +  Cl⁻

Hence, we can say that it produces two ions when dissolved in water.

Also,

We know that 1 mole of any substance contains exactly 6.022 × 10²³ particles which is also called as Avogadro's Number. So in order to calculate the number of ions  contained by 7.1 moles of NH₄Cl, we will use following relation to first calculate the number of molecules as;

          Moles  =  Number of Molecules ÷ 6.022 × 10²³ Molecules.mol⁻¹

Solving for Number of Molecules,

          Number of Molecules  =  Moles × 6.022 × 10²³ Molecules.mol⁻¹

Putting values,

          Number of Molecules  =  7.1 mol × 6.022 × 10²³

          Number of Molecules  =  4.27 × 10²⁴ Molecules

So,

As,

                         1 Molecule of NH₄Cl contained  =  2 Ions

So,

              4.27 × 10²⁴ Molecules of NH₄Cl will contain  =  X ions

Solving for X,

                     X =  2 Ions × 4.27 × 10²⁴ Molecules / 1 Molecule

                    X =  8.55 × 10²⁴ Ions
