Calculate the mass percent of calcium chloride in 8.87 g of calcium chloride in 65.1 g of water

Chemistry
1 answer:
zhannawk [14.2K]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

11.99 % ≅ 12.0%.

Explanation:

∵ mass % = [mass of solute/mass of solution] x 100.

mass of solute (CaCl₂) = 8.87 g & mass of solution = 8.87 g + 65.1 g = 73.97 g.

<em>∴ mass % of (CaCl₂) = [mass of solute/mass of solution] x 100 </em>= ( 8.87 g/ 73.97 g) x 100 = <em>11.99 % ≅ 12.0%.</em>

What is the molarity of a sodium hydroxide solution containing 2 moles of NaOH with a volume of .5L?
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

0.4M NaOH

Explanation:

Molarity, M, is an unit of concentration widely used defined as the ratio between moles of solute (In this case, NaOH) and volume of solution in liters.

As the solution contains 2 moles of NaOH-Moles of solute- in 5L of solution, the molarity is:

2 moles NaOH /  5L =

Which statement describes a step in the formation of an ionic bond?
BartSMP [9]
The correct answer is  a metal atom forms a cation, and a nonmetal atom forms an anion.  This is because metals are less electronegative than nonmetals and will therefore give electrons to nonmetals.  Atoms that give up electrons will have a positive charge therefore becoming a cation while atoms that accept electrons will have a negative charge therefore becoming an anion.


Ions that have the same charge can't be attracted to each other since it takes a positive and negative charge to cause attractive forces. 

A less electronegative atom will transfer electrons to a more electronegative atom.

A metal (cation) can pull electrons from another metal (not an ion) but that does not form an attractive force between the two metals (You will learn more about this when you go over reduction potentials, redox reactions, and electrochemistry).

I hope this helps.  Let me know if anything is unclear.

Which of these statements is false? (A) Acetylene (ethyne) can be converted to the acetylide anion by treating with a strong bas
Free_Kalibri [48]

Answer:

(C) Acetylene (ethyne) can be converted to the acetylide anion by treating with a strong base such as CH₃​​Li.

Explanation:

Acetylene (C₂H₂) can be converted to the acetylide anion (C₂⁻²) when treated with a base because it will donate protons (2H⁺). So it will be a neutralization reaction. NaNH₂ and NaOH are strong bases because they are good electrons donators ( NaNH₂ has pair of electrons on N, and NaOH has the group OH⁻), but CH₃Li has no pair of electrons to donate, so it's not a strong base.
