A mixture of MgBr2 and inert material is analyzed to determine the Mg content. First the mixture is dissolved in water. Then all

of the bromide ion is precipitated as AgBr by the addition of an excess of silver nitrate. MgBr2(aq) + 2AgNO3(aq) 2AgBr(s) + Mg(NO3)2(aq) In one experiment, a 0.8107 g sample of the mixture resulted in 1.1739 g of AgBr. Determine the percent (by mass) of Mg in the mixture.

Answer:

9.24% the percent of Mg in the mixture.

Explanation:

Mass of silver bromide = 1.1739 g

Moles of silver bromide = \frac{1.1739 g}{188 g/mol}=0.006244 mol

1 mole of AgBr has 1 mole of bromine atom.Then 0.006244 moles AgBr has 0.006244 mole bromine atom.

Moles of bromine atoms = 0.006244 moles

Magnesium bromide has 2 moles of bromine atom.Then 0.006244 moles of bromine atoms will be in :

\frac{0.006244 mol}{2}=0.003122 mol

Magnesium bromide has 1 mole magnesium atom, then 0.003122 moles of magnesium bromide will have :

1\times 0.003122 mol=0.003122 mol magnesium atom

Mass of 0.003122 moles of magnesium :

0.003122 mol × 24 g/mol = 0.07493 g

Mass of the sample = 0.8107 g

Percentage of magnesium in the sample ;

=\frac{0.07493 g}{0.8107 g}\times 100=9.24\%

9.24% the percent of Mg in the mixture.

When the pressure that a gas exerts on a sealed container changes from 22.5 psi to ? psi, the temperature changes from 110 degre
natta225 [31]
Using Gay-Lussac's Law, pressure is proportional to (absolute) temperature in Kelvin. We first convert the temperature values to Kelvin: 110 C = 383.15 K, while 65 C = 338.15 K.
P1/T1 = P2/T2
22.5/383.15 = P2/338.15
P2 = 19.9 psi

sashaice [31]

Ephedrine, a central nervous system stimulant, is used in nasal sprays as a decongestant. This compound is a weak organic base:

C10H15ON (aq) + H2O (l) -> C10H15ONH+ (aq) + OH- (aq)

A 0.035 M solution of ephedrine has a pH of 11.33.

a) What are the equilibrium concentrations of C10H15ON, C10H15ONH<span>+, and OH-</span>?

b) Calculate <span>Kb</span> for ephedrine.

c(C₁₀H₁₅NO) = 0,035 M.<span>
pH = 11,33.
pOH = 14 - 11,33 = 2,67.
[OH</span>⁻] = 10∧(-2,67) = 0,00213 M.<span>
[OH</span>⁻] = [C₁₀H₁₅NOH⁺] = 0,00213 M.<span>
[</span>C₁₀H₁₅NO] = 0,035 M - 0,00213 M = 0,03287 M.<span>
Kb = [OH</span>⁻] · [C₁₀H₁₅NOH⁺] / [C₁₀H₁₅NO].<span>
Kb = (</span>0,00213 M)² / 0,03287 M = 1,38·10⁻⁴.

How many hydrogen atoms are in 5.80 mol of ammonium sulfide
IRINA_888 [86]

Moles of ammonium sulfide =  5.80 mol

The formula of ammonium sulfide is (NH₄)₂S

So each molecule of ammonium sulfide has (4 x 2)  or 8 atoms of H

One mole of ammonium sulfide has 8 moles of H

5.80 mol of ammonium sulfide has (8 x 5.8) or 46.4 moles of H

As per the definition of Avogadro's number, 1 mole = 6.022 x 10²³ atoms

46.4 moles of H x (6.022 x 10²³ atoms/ 1 mole of H)

= 2.8 x 10²⁵ H atoms

Therefore, 2.8 x 10²⁵ H atoms are in 5.80 mol of ammonium sulfide.
