Describe the process used to measure out a specific mass of a solid

1 answer:

7 0

Although the process varies slightly from one material to another, the general process is as follows:

1) Choose an appropriate container for the solid. This may be a petri dish or a beaker in which you want to prepare the solution of the solid or any other lab equipment.

2) Place the container on a mass balance, then turn the balance on. The mass balance will automatically zero-out the mass of the container, so that any mass that you add on the container will be the mass of the solid. Alternatively, you may first measure the mass of the empty container alone.

3) Add the solid using a lab spatula. The solid should be added more slowly when the reading on the scale comes close to the desired value.

4) Remove the container from the mass balance after the desired amount of solid has been added.

Which transition metals usually form only one monatomic cation? select all that apply.

lyudmila [28]

Zn, Cd, and Ag are transition metals that usually form only one monoatomic cation.

A monatomic cation is a cation made of only one atom.

Cations are positively charged ions, in this example Ag⁺, Cd²⁺ and Zn²⁺.

These cations form only one type of ion, while iron and copper form more than one type of cations.

Iron and copper form cations with different charges (Fe²⁺, Fe³⁺, Cu⁺, Cu²⁺).

It depends on electron configuration which type would be formed.

Electron configuration of zinc atom: ₃₀Zn 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 3d¹⁰ 4s²

Transition metals are elements in the d-block of the Periodic table.

25/2 and 96/X
CROSS MULTIPLY.

2x=2,400.
divide by 2.
x=1,200.

you take the GIVEN MASS of an element, and you put it on top, the coefficient is what it’s over. i believe this is right

Type the correct answer in the box. Express your answer to three significant figures. Iron(II) chloride and sodium carbonate rea

Ad libitum [116K]

Answer:

The reaction can produce 287 grams of iron(II) carbonate

Explanation:

To solve this question we must find the moles of iron(II) chloride that react. Using the chemical equation we can find the moles of iron(II) carbonate and its mass -Molar mass FeCO3: 115.854g/mol-

<em>Moles FeCl2:</em>

1.24L * (2.00mol / L) = 2.48 moles FeCl2

As 1 mol FeCl2 produce 1 mol FeCO3, the moles of FeCO3 = 2.48 moles

2.48mol * (115.854g / mol) =

How many grams of iki would it take to obtain a 100 ml solution of 0.300 m iki? how many grams of iki would it take to create a

GalinKa [24]

0.300 M IKI represents the concentration which is in molarity of a potassium iodide solution. This means that for every liter of solution there are 0.300 moles of potassium iodide. Knowing that molarity is a ratio of solute to solution.

By using a conversion factor:

100 ml x (1L / 1000 mL) x (0.300 mol Kl / 1 L) x (166.0g / 1 mol Kl) = 4.98 g

Therefore, in the first conversion by simply converting the unit of volume to liter, Molarity is in L where the volume is in liters. The next step is converted in moles from volume by using molarity as a conversion factor which is similar to how density can be used to convert between volume and mass. After converting to moles it is simply used as molar mass of Kl which is obtained from periodic table to convert from mole to grams.

In order to get the grams of IKI to create a 100 mL solution of 0.600 M IKI, use the same formula as above:

100 ml x (1L / 1000 mL) x (0.600 mol Kl / 1 L) x (166.0g / 1 mol Kl) = 9.96 g
