In reality, a hydrate of iron(III) nitrate had to be used, not the anhydrous salt. As you may guess, some of the hydrate’s mass

is water, and some is iron(III) nitrate. How many grams of Fe(NO3)3•9H2O needed to be dissolved in water to make 2 L of 0.0020 M Fe(NO3)3? Molecular weight of the nonahydrate is 404.0 g/mol. Hint: try to set up an equation using x, and solving it. Assume that the density of your solution is 1.000 g/mL.

<u>Answer:</u> The mass of nonahydrate iron (III) nitrate is 16.2 g

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles for given molarity, we use the equation:

\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}

Molarity of Fe(NO_3)_3 = 0.0020 M

Volume of solution = 2 L

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.0200M=\frac{\text{Moles of }Fe(NO_3)_3}{2L}\\\\\text{Moles of }Fe(NO_3)_3=(0.0200mol/L\times 2L)=0.04mol

The chemical equation for the decomposition of hydrated iron (III) nitrate follows:

Fe(NO_3)_3.9H_2O\rightarrow Fe(NO_3)_3+9H_2O

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of iron (III) nitrate is produced from 1 mole of hydrated iron (III) nitrate

So, 0.04 moles of iron (III) nitrate will be produced from = \frac{1}{1}\times 0.04=0.04mol of hydrated iron (III) nitrate

To calculate the mass from given number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

Molar mass of nonahydrate iron (III) nitrate = 404.0 g/mol

Moles of nonahydrate iron (III) nitrate = 0.04 moles

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.04mol=\frac{\text{Mass of nonahydrate iron (III) nitrate}}{404.0g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of nonahydrate iron (III) nitrate}=(0.04mol\times 404.0g/mol)=16.2g

Hence, the mass of nonahydrate iron (III) nitrate is 16.2 g

Answer:

I could create a slower reaction because the particles might be moving slower due to the cold. if it was warm there will be a faster reaction. similar to the elements movements in solids and liquids.

lara31 [8.8K]
Neil Bohr contributed towards science in many ways, but his contributions did not include the charge of an electron. Neil Bohr recognized a relationship between the chemical properties of a substance and the number of valence shell electrons. Moreover, he introduced the atomic model in 1913 and provided the liquid-drop model to explain nuclear fusion.
