Describe how to do a flame test on a sample of a salt

Chemistry
1 answer:
Katen [24]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:Hope this helps!

Explanation:

You can use a flame test to help identify the composition of a sample. The test is used to identify metal ions (and certain other ions) based on the characteristic emission spectrum of the elements. The test is performed by dipping a wire or wooden splint into a sample solution or coating it with the powdered metal salt. The color of a gas flame is observed as the sample is heated. If a wooden splint is used, it's necessary to wave the sample through the flame to avoid setting the wood on fire. The color of the flame is compared against the flame colors known to be associated with the metals.

Which best describes an oxidizing agent?
stellarik [79]

Answer:B) a reactant that undergoes reduction

Explanation:

Oxidation reaction is defined as the reaction in which a substance looses electrons. The oxidation state of the substance increases during oxidation.

M\rightarrow M^++e^-

Reduction reaction is defined as the reaction in which a substance gains electrons. The oxidation state of the substance gets reduced during reduction.

N^++e^-\rightarrow N

Overall reaction: M+N^+\rightarrow M^++N

The substance M which itself gets oxidized, reduces other and is called as reducing agent. The substance N which itself gets reduced, oxidizes other and is called as oxidizing agent.

For an aqueous solution of sodium chloride (NaCl) .Determine the molarity of 3.45L of a solution that contains 145g of sodium
worty [1.4K]
Molar mass NaCl = 58.44 g/mol

number of moles:

mass NaCl / molar mass

145 / 58.44 => 2.4811 moles of NaCl

Volume = 3.45 L

Therefore :

M = moles / volume in liters:

M = 2.4811 / 3.45

M = 0.719 mol/L⁻¹

sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

The answer to your question is:

a) 31.75 cm

b) 0.475 miles

c) 2.44 yards

d) 11496.04 inches

Explanation:

Convert

a)           12.5 in to cm

         1 in ------------------- 2.54 cm

       12.5 in ----------------    x

            x = 12.5(2.54)/1 = 31.75/ = 31.75 cm

b)          2513 ft to miles

           1 mile -------------- 5280 ft

           x miles ------------ 2513 ft

        x = 2513(1)/5280 = 0.475 miles

c) 2.23 m to yards

              1 m -------------   1,094 yards

            2.23 m ----------     x

       x= 2.23x1.094/1 = 2.44 yards

d)  292 m to inches

            1 m ---------------- 39.37 inches

          292 m -------------     x

    x = 292 x 39.37/1 = 11496.04 inches
