<span>Mixing an acid and a base results in neutralization, but the results are potentially dangerous. No matter which acid or base is used, the resulting solution is water and varying types of salt. The process of neutralization often involves the substances heating up when they come together. If the solution heats up too much or too fast, a violent explosion or the creation of harmful or flammable gases is a possibility. This occurs when the chemicals are mixed too quickly, the acid and base are too strong or if there is no available salt to be made in the solution.</span>

How many atoms are there in 4.13 moles of nickel (Ni)
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

24.87× 10²³ atoms of Ni

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of atoms of Ni= ?

Number of moles of Ni = 4.13 mol

Solution:

we will calculate the number of atoms of Ni by using  Avogadro number.

It is the number of atoms , ions and molecules in one gram atom of element, one gram molecules of compound and one gram ions of a substance.

The number 6.022 × 10²³ is called Avogadro number.

1 mole = 6.022 × 10²³ atoms

4.13 mol ×  6.022 × 10²³ atoms /1 mol

24.87× 10²³ atoms of Ni

Mercury chloride is a commercial fungicide. If the molar mass is 470 g/mol and the percent composition is 85.0% Hg and 15.0% Cl,
ElenaW [278]
Data: molar mass 470 g/mol

Percent composition:

Hg = 85.0%
Cl = 15.0%

Solution:

1)  Convert % to molar ratios

A. Base: 100 g

=> Hg = 85.0 g / 200.59 g/mol = 0.4235 mol

     Cl = 15.0 g / 35.45 g/mol = 0.4231 mol

B. divide by the higher number and round to whole number

Hg = 0.4325 / 0.4231 = 1.00

Cl = 0.4231 / 0.4231 = 1.00

=> Empirical formula = Hg Cl

2) Find the mass of the empirical formula:

HgCl: 200.59 g/mol + 35.45 g/mol = 236.04

3) Determine how many times is the empirical mass contained in the molecular mass:

470 g/mol / 236.04 = 1.99 ≈ 2

=> Molecular formula = Hg2 Cl2.

Answers:

Empirical formula HgCl
Molecular Formula Hg2Cl2

Two systems with heat capacities 19.9 J mol-1 K-1 and 28.2 ] mol 1 K-1 respectively interact thermally and come to an equilibriu
MAVERICK [17]

Answer : The initial temperature of system 2 is, 19.415^oC

Explanation :

In this problem we assumed that the total energy of the combined systems remains constant.

-q_1=q_2

m\times c_1\times (T_f-T_1)=-m\times c_2\times (T_f-T_2)

The mass remains same.

where,

C_1 = heat capacity of system 1 = 19.9 J/mole.K

C_2 = heat capacity of system 2 = 28.2 J/mole.K

T_f = final temperature of system = 30^oC=273+30=303K

T_1 = initial temperature of system 1 = 45^oC=273+45=318K

T_2 = initial temperature of system 2 = ?

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get

-19.9J/mole.K\times (303-318)K=28.2J/mole.K\times (303-T_2)K

T_2=292.415K

T_2=292.415-273=19.415^oC

Therefore, the initial temperature of system 2 is, 19.415^oC
