Answer:

1.33 Å

Explanation:

Given that the edge length , a of the KCl which forms the FCC lattice = 6.28 Å

Also,

For the FCC lattice in which the anion-cation contact along the cell edge , the ratio of the radius of the cation to that of anion is 0.731.

Thus,

\frac {r^+}{r^-}=0.731 .................1

Also, the sum of the radius of the cation and the anion in FCC is equal to half of the edge length.

Thus,

r^++r^-=\frac {a}{2}  ...................2

Given that:

Cl^-\ (r^-) = 1.82\ \dot{A}

To find,

K^+\ (r^+) = ? \dot{A}

Using 1 and 2 , we get:

1.731\ r^+=0.731\times \frac {6.28}{2}

<u>Size of the potassium ion = 1.33 Å</u>

How many grams of HF are needed to react with 3.0 moles of Sn? *
Lostsunrise [7]

Answer:

120g

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is given below:

Sn + 2HF —> SnF2 + H2

Next, we shall determine the number of mole of HF needed to react with 3 moles of Sn.

From the balanced equation above, 1 mole of Sn reacted with 2 moles of HF.

Therefore, 3 moles of Sn will react with = 3 x 2 = 6 moles of HF.

Finally, we shall convert 6moles of HF to grams

This is illustrated below:

Number of mole of HF = 6moles

Molar Mass of HF = 1 + 19 = 20g/mol

Mass of HF =..?

Mass = number of mole x molar Mass

Mass of HF = 6 x 20

Mass of HF = 120g

Therefore, 120g of HF is needed to react with 3 moles of Sn
