When dissolved in water, a neutral molecule of calcium chloride dissociates into three ions - one calcium ion and two chloride i

ons. Each chloride ion has one negative elementary charge unit. What is the charge on the calcium ion, in elementary units?

Explanation:

Calcium chloride is an ionic compound as it is formed by transfer of an electron to each chlorine atom.

So, being an ionic compound calcium chloride is able to dissociate completely into water.

Hence, the dissociation reaction will be as follows.

         CaCl_{2}(s) \rightarrow Ca^{2+}(aq) + 2Cl^{-}(aq)

Since, two electrons has been lost by single calcium atom. Therefore, calcium atom will have a charge of +2.

Thus, we can conclude that the charge on the calcium ion, in elementary units is +2.

Which statement defines specific heat capacity for a given sample
avanturin [10]

The statement that defines the specific heat capacity for a given sample is the quantity of heat that is required to raise 1 g of the sample by 1°C (Kelvin) at a constant pressure.

<h3>What is specific heat capacity?</h3>

Specific heat capacity is the of heat to increase the temperature per unit mass.

The formula to calculate the specific heat is Q = mct.

The options are attached here:

  1. The temperature of a given sample is 1 %.
  2. The temperature that a given sample can withstand.
  3. The quantity of heat that is required to raise the sample's temperature by 1 °C1 °C (Kelvin).
  4. The quantity of heat that is required to raise 1 g of the sample by 1°C (Kelvin) at a constant pressure.

Thus, the correct option is 4. The quantity of heat that is required to raise 1 g of the sample by 1°C (Kelvin) at a constant pressure.

A light bulb has a resistance of 96.8 Ω. What current flows through the bulb when it is connected to a 120 V source of electrica
Finger [1]

Answer:

I = 1.23 A

Explanation:

Given that,

The resistance of the lightbulb, R = 96.8 Ω

Voltage, V = 120 V

We need to find the current flows through the lightbulb. Let the current be I. We can use the ohm's law to find it i.e.

V=IR\\\\I=\dfrac{V}{R}\\\\I=\dfrac{120}{96.8}\\\\I=1.23\ A

So, the current flows through the bulb is 1.23 A.

Write the net ionic equation for the precipitation of cobalt(ii) carbonate from aqueous solution
andrey2020 [161]
Missing question: Write the net ionic equation for the precipitation reaction that occurs when aqueous solutions of ammonium carbonate and cobalt(II) bromide are combined.<span>Balanced chemical reaction:
(NH</span>₄)₂CO₃(aq) + CoBr₂(aq) → CoCO₃(s) + 2NH₄Br(aq).
Net ionic reaction:
2NH₄⁺(aq) + CO²⁻(aq) + Co²⁺(aq) + 2Br⁻(aq) → CoCO₃ + 2NH₄(aq)+ 2Br(aq).
or CO²⁻(aq) + Co²⁺(aq) → CoCO₃(s).

How many milliliters of an aqueous solution of 0.170 M ammonium carbonate is needed to obtain 16.1 grams of the salt
Citrus2011 [14]

There will be needed 982.35 mL of solution to obtain 16.1 grams of the salt.There will be needed mL of

Why?

In order to calculate how many milliliters are needed to obtain 16.1 grams of the salt given its concentration, we first need to find its chemical formula which is the following:

(NH_{4})2CO_{3}

Now that we know the chemical formula of the substance, we need to find its molecular mass. We can do it by the following way:

N_{2}=14g*2=28g\\\\2H_{4}=2*1g*4=8g\\\\C=12.01g*1=12.01g\\\\O_{3}=15.99g*3=47.97g

We have that the molecular mass of the substance will be:

MolecularMass=\frac{28g+8g+12.01g+47.97g}{mol}=95.98\frac{g}{mol}

Therefore, knowing the molecular mass of the substance, we need to calculate how many mols represents 16.1 grams of the same substance, we can do it by the following way:

mol_{(NH_{4})2CO_{3}=\frac{mass_{(NH_{4})2CO_{3}}}{molarmass_{(NH_{4})2CO_{3}}}

mol_{(NH_{4})2CO_{3}=\frac{16.1g}{95.98\frac{g}{mol}}=0.167mol

Finally, if we need to calculate how many milliliters are needed, we need to use the following formula:

M=\frac{moles_{solute}}{volume_{solution}}

M=\frac{moles_{solute}}{volume_{solution}}\\\\volume_{solution}=\frac{moles_{solute}}{M}

Now, substituting and calculating, we have:

volume_{solution}=\frac{0.167mol}{0.170\frac{mol}{L}}\\\\volume_{solution}=0.982L=0.982L*1000=982.35mL

Henc, there will be needed 982.35 mL of solution to obtain 16.1 grams of the salt.

Have a nice day!
