<u>Answer:</u>

The percent composition of this compound is 94%

<u>Explanation:</u>

The reaction can be formed as

2 \mathrm{Fe}+3 \mathrm{Cl}_{2} \rightarrow 2 \mathrm{FeCl}_{3}

\frac{\text { Weight of } \mathrm{Cl}_{2}}{\text { 3* Molar Mass of } \mathrm{Cl}_{2}}=\frac{\text { Weight of } \mathrm{Fe}}{2 * \text { Molar Mass of Fe }}

\frac{\text { Weight of } \mathrm{Cl}_{2}}{3 *(2 * 35.5)}=\frac{3.56}{2 * 55.8}

\text { Weight of } C l_{2}=\frac{3.56 * 3 * 71}{2 * 55.8}=6.79 \mathrm{g}

\mathrm{n}\left(\mathrm{Cl}_{2}\right)=\mathrm{m}\left(\mathrm{Cl}_{2}\right) / \mathrm{M}\left(\mathrm{Cl}_{2}\right)=6.79 / 71=0.1 \mathrm{m}

\mathrm{n}(\mathrm{Fe})=\mathrm{m}(\mathrm{Fe}) / \mathrm{M}(\mathrm{Fe})=3.56 / 55.8=0.06 \mathrm{m}

Based on no. of iron reacted,  

\mathrm{n}(\text { moles of } \mathrm{Fe})=\mathrm{n}\left(\text { moles of } \mathrm{FeCl}_{3}\right)

n = m/M

\mathrm{m}\left(\mathrm{FeCl}_{3}\right)=\mathrm{n}^{*} \mathrm{M}=0.06^{*} 162.5=9.75 \mathrm{g}

% composition ofFeCl_3  

=  (9.75 / 10.39)^{*} 100

= 94%

A mixture of hydrochloric and sulfuric acids is prepared so that it contains 0.315 M HCl and 0.125 M H2SO4. What volume of 0.55
Xelga [282]

<u>Answer:</u> The volume of NaOH required is 402.9 mL

<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)}}     .....(1)

  • <u>For HCl:</u>

Molarity of HCl solution = 0.315 M

Volume of solution = 503.4 mL = 0.5034 L   (Conversion factor: 1 L = 1000 mL)

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

0.315M=\frac{\text{Moles of HCl}}{0.5034L}\\\\\text{Moles of HCl}=(0.315mol/L\times 0.5034L)=0.1586mol

  • <u>For sulfuric acid:</u>

Molarity of sulfuric acid solution = 0.125 M

Volume of solution = 503.4 mL = 0.5034 L

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

0.125M=\frac{\text{Moles of }H_2SO_4}{0.5034L}\\\\\text{Moles of }H_2SO_4=(0.125mol/L\times 0.5034L)=0.0630mol

As, all of the acid is neutralized, so moles of NaOH = [0.1586 + 0.0630] moles = 0.2216 moles

Molarity of NaOH solution = 0.55 M

Moles of NaOH = 0.2216 moles

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

0.55M=\frac{0.2216}{\text{Volume of solution}}\\\\\text{Volume of solution}=\frac{0.2216}{0.55}=0.4029L=402.9mL

Hence, the volume of NaOH required is 402.9 mL

Explain how/why you categorized the substances the way you did. What characteristics of the substances helped you predict whethe
Rasek [7]

The presence of hydrogen and hydroxyl ions determines the acidic and basic nature of a solution.

<h3>What determine acidic and basic nature of a solution?</h3>

The use of the pH scale is one way of determining the acidic and basic nature of solution. If the pH of a solution is less than 7, it is considered as acidic and if the pH is 7, the solution is neutral.

While if the pH is greater than 7,the solution is basic so we can conclude that the presence of hydrogen and hydroxyl ions determines the acidic and basic nature of a solution.

How do the elements in each group differ? How are they similar?
bulgar [2K]

Answer:

All the elements in one group have the same number of valence electrons. ... Since elements in a group have the same number of valence electrons, they behave similarly in chemistry. An example would be the alkali metals (excepting hydrogen. Hydrogen is in this group only because it has one valence electron.
