Answer:

Potassium chloride > Butanol >Propane > Ethane

Explanation:

Water is a polar solvent and it is likely to dissolve polar molecules.

KCl is ionic in nature and is completely polar and the solubility of the salt, potassium chloride is the highest.

Butanol can form hydrogen bonding with the water despite having a carbon chain. Thus, butanol will be at second.

Taking about, ethane and propane, both are non polar and least likely to dissolve in water. But, the extent of the London forces increases with the increase in the molecular weight. So, propane will dissolve faster than ethane.

The order is:

Potassium chloride > Butanol >Propane > Ethane

When 50.0 ml of a 0.3000 m agno3 solution is added to 50.0 ml of a solution of mgcl2, an agcl precipitate forms immediately. the
frosja888 [35]
<span>0.0165 m The balanced equation for the reaction is AgNO3 + MgCl2 ==> AgCl + Mg(NO3)2 So it's obvious that for each Mg ion, you'll get 1 AgCl molecule as a product. Now calculate the molar mass of AgCl, starting with looking up the atomic weights. Atomic weight silver = 107.8682 Atomic weight chlorine = 35.453 Molar mass AgCl = 107.8682 + 35.453 = 143.3212 g/mol Now how many moles were produced? 0.1183 g / 143.3212 g/mol = 0.000825419 mol So we had 0.000825419 moles of MgCl2 in the sample of 50.0 ml. Since concentration is defined as moles per liter, do the division. 0.000825419 / 0.0500 = 0.016508374 mol/L = 0.016508374 m Rounding to 3 significant figures gives 0.0165 m</span>

The density of aluminium is 2.7 g/cm3. Find the mass in grams of a bar of aluminum measuring 2.7 cm by 1.2 cm by 14.3 cm.
Fofino [41]

Answer:125.0964g

Explanation:

Density = mass/volume

Density = 2.7 gcm-3

Volume=2.7*1.2*14.3=46.332

Mass=?

Mass= density* volume

= 2.7× 46.332=125.0964g

Write a balanced chemical equation, including physical state symbols, for the decomposition of solid calcium carbonate (CaCO_3)
nadya68 [22]

Answer:

CaCO₃(s) → CaO(s) + CO₂(g)

Explanation:

The decomposition reaction always make two compounds from one.

The products always have simpler chemical structure, originated from a determined compound. This can happens  spontaneously or by a third party.

A notable example of decomposition is hydrolysis. As for example the case of water, which decomposes and generates oxygen and hydrogen gas

2H₂O (l) → 2 H₂ (g) + O₂ (g)

In this case, the calium carbonate decomposes into CaO and CO₂

These two, are the products of the decomposition.

Of course, the unique reactant is the Calcium Carbonate

The balanced equation is:

CaCO₃(s) → CaO(s) + CO₂(g)
