8 0

<u>Answer:</u> The molecular equation is written below.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Molecular equation is defined as the equation in which ionic compounds are expressed as compounds instead of constituent ions.

The balanced molecular equation for the reaction of zinc and hydrochloric acid follows:

Zn(s)+2HCl(aq.)\rightarrow ZnCl_2(aq.)+H_2(g)

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of zinc metal reacts with 2 moles of hydrochloric acid to produce 1 mole of zinc chloride and 1 mole of hydrogen gas.

Hence, the molecular equation is written above.

What is the percent by mass of water in Na S04.10H20?
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

                    Percent by mass of water is 56%

Explanation:

                    First of all calculate the mass of hydrated compound as,

Mass of Sodium = Na × 2 = 22.99 × 1 = 45.98 g

Mass of Sulfur = S × 1 = 32.06 × 1 = 32.06 g

Mass of Oxygen = O × 14 = 16 × 14 = 224 g

Mass of Hydrogen = H × 20 = 1.01 × 20 = 20.2 g

Mass of Na₂S0₄.10H₂O = 322.24 g

Secondly, calculate mass of water present in hydrated compound. For this one should look for the coefficient present before H₂O in molecular formula of hydrated compound. In this case the coefficient is 10, so the mass of water is...

Mass of water = 10 × 18.02

Mass of water = 180.2 g

Now, we will apply following formula to find percent of water in hydrated compound,

           %H₂O  =  Mass of H₂O / Mass of Hydrated Compound × 100

Putting values,

                                      %H₂O  = 180.2 g / 322.24 g × 100

                                           %H₂O =  55.92 % ≈ 56%

Does the temperature of the solvent (water) affect the rate of dissolving?​
gregori [183]
Yes. Heating up the solvent gives the molecules more kinetic energy. The more rapid motion means that the solvent molecules collide with the solute with greater frequency and the collisions occur with more force. Both factors increase the rate at which the solute dissolves.

In order to survive, plants absorb sunlight, water, and nutrients from the soil. What property is this?
zvonat [6]

Plants are unique organisms that can absorb nutrients and water through their root system, as well as carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Soil quality and climate are the major determinants of plant distribution and growth.
