The solubility of water in diethyl ether has been reported to be 1.468 % by mass.' Assuming that 23.0 mL of diethyl ether were a

llowed to become saturated with water before used and that the 1.2 g magnesium was the limiting reagent, what percentage of the product is expected to be lost due to the water in the solvent if the ether is not anhydrous?

Explanation:

As it is given that solubility of water in diethyl ether is 1.468 %. This means that in 100 ml saturated solution water present is 1.468 ml.

Hence, amount of diethyl ether present will be calculated as follows.

                          (100ml - 1.468 ml)

                        = 98.532 ml

So, it means that 98.532 ml of diethyl ether can dissolve 1.468 ml of water.

Hence, 23 ml of diethyl ether can dissolve the amount of water will be calculated as follows.

          Amount of water = \frac{1.468 ml \times 23 ml}{98.532 ml}

                                       = 0.3427 ml

Now, when magnesium dissolves in water then the reaction will be as follows.

                Mg + H_{2}O \rightarrow Mg(OH)_{2}

Molar mass of Mg = 24.305 g

Molar mass of H_{2}O = 18 g

Therefore, amount of magnesium present in 0.3427 ml of water is calculated as follows.

           Amount of Mg = \frac{24.305 g \times 0.3427 ml}{18 g}  

                                    = 0.462 g

Rank the following bonds in order of decreasing bond length, based on periodic trends, starting with the longest bond at the top
sattari [20]

Answer:

H-BI,H-Se,H-S,H-I,H-Br

Explanation:

One thing that must be kept in mind is that atomic size increases down the group and decreases across the period. The bond lengths of species are influenced by the relative sizes of atoms or ions present in the bond.

The bonds in the answer have been arranged on basis of their decreasing atomic size because the greater the atomic size of the atoms, the greater the bond length and vice versa.

What part of the atom is responsible for the behavior of the alpha particles?
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

nucleus

Alpha particles are subatomic fragments consisting of two neutrons and two protons. Alpha radiation occurs when the nucleus of an atom becomes unstable (the ratio of neutrons to protons is too low) and alpha particles are emitted to restore balance.
