Why isn't the atomic mass of most of the elements on the Periodic Table an integer (not a decimal)?

How many grams of Na2SO4 can be produced from 423.67 g of NaCl?

san4es73 [151]

Mass of Na2SO4= 514.18 grams

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

423.67 g of NaCl

Required

mass of Na2SO4

Solution

Reaction

2NaCl + H2SO4 → Na2SO4 + 2HCl

mol NaCl :

= 423.67 g : 58.5 g/mol

= 7.24

From the equation, mol Na2SO4 :

= 1/2 x mol NaCl

= 1/2 x 7.24

= 3.62

Mass Na2SO4 :

= 3.62 mol x 142,04 g/mol

= 514.18 grams

Can someone explain the steps for balancing chemical equations in depth?

m_a_m_a [10]

Answer:

Steps explained below

Explanation:

To explain balancing of chemical equations, I will make use of an example equation where Hydrogen and oxygen react to form water.

H2 + O2 = H2O

Now, the equation I've listed above is an unbalanced chemical equation. It can be balanced by the following steps;

Step 1: Identify the elements on both the left Hand side and the right hand side.

In this case;

on the left hand side, we have H and O.

On the right hand side, we have H and I also.

Step 2: Identify the number of atoms of each element on both the left and right hand sides.

On the left, H has 2 atoms and O has 2 atoms.

On the right, H has 2 atoms and O has 1 atom.

Step 3: For the equation to be balanced, the number of atoms of each element on the right and left hand side must be the same.

Thus,

O on the left hand side has 2 atoms but on the right hand side it has 1 atom. Thus, we will multiply O on the right by 2 to balance what we have on the left.

So, we now have;

H2 + O2 = 2H2O

Step 4: Check equation: We now have;

H2 + O2 = 2H2O

Our left hand side remains 2 atoms of H and 2 atoms of O. But on the right, we now have;

2 atoms O and 4 atoms of H.

Which means atoms of H is not balanced with the left side.

Step 5: rebalance equation: To rebalance, we multiply H on the left by 2 to give us 2 × 2 = 4 atoms.

Thus, we now have;

2H2 + O2 = 2H2O

What is the molecular geometry around each carbon atom in a saturated hydrocarbon?

Lelu [443]

Answer:
Molecular geometry around each carbon atom in a saturated hydrocarbon is Tetrahedral.

Explanation:
 In saturated hydrocarbons (-CH₂-) the central atom (carbon) is bonded to either three or two hydrogen atoms and one or two carbon atoms. So, the central atom is having four electron pairs and all pairs are bonding pairs and lacks any lone pair of electron. According to Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion (VSEPR) Theory the central atom with four bonding pair electrons and zero lone pair electrons will attain a tetrahedral geometry with bond angles of 109°.
