Answer: MgSO_4.7H_2O

Explanation:

MgSO_4 is an ionic compound because aluminium element is a metal and hydrogen element is a non-metal. The bond formed between a metal and a non-metal is always ionic in nature.

The nomenclature of ionic compounds is given by:

1. Positive is written first.

2. The negative ion is written next and a suffix is added at the end of the negative ion. The suffix written in case of SO_4^{2-} is '-ate'.

Hence, the name of MgSO_4 is magnesium sulphate.

The water of crystallization is written as hydrate with the number of water molecules. As the name is heptahydrate, that means 7 water molecules are present.

Therefore, the correct answer is MgSO_4.7H_2O

Calculate the mass of aluminum in 500 g of Al(C2H3O2)3
Luden [163]
Answer: 66.2 g

Explanation:

1) The ratio of Al in the molecule is  1 mol to 1 mol .

2) The mass of 1 mol of molecules of Al (CH2H3O2)3 is the molar mass of the compound.

3) You calculate the molar mass of the compound using the atomic masses of each atom, in this way:

Al: 27 g/mol
C: 2 * 3 * 12 g/mol = 72 g/mol
H: 3 * 3 * 1 g/mol = 9 g/mol
O: 2 * 3 * 16 g/mol = 96 g/mol

Molar mass = 27 g/mol + 72 g/mol + 9 g/mol + 96 g/mol = 204 g/mol

4) Set a proportion:

    27 g/mol                x
-------------------- =  ----------
   204 g/mol            500 g

5) Solve for x:

x = 500 g * 27 g/mol / 204 g/mol = 66.2 g

A solution is prepared by dissolving 0.23 mol of hypochlorous acid and 0.27 mol of sodium hypochlorite in water sufficient to yi
finlep [7]

Answer:

hypochlorite ion

Explanation:

The hypochlorous acid, HClO, is a weak acid with Ka = 1.36x10⁻³, when this acid is in solution with its conjugate base, ClO⁻ (From sodium hypochlorite, NaClO) a buffer is produced. When a strong acid as HCl is added, the reaction that occurs is:

HCl + ClO⁻ → HClO + Cl⁻.

Where more hypochlorous acid is produced.

That means, the HCl reacts with the hypochlorite ion present in solution
