Answer:

0.35 g.

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the number of mole of Fe(NO3)3 in 35 mL of 0.250 M Fe(NO3)3 solution.

This is illustrated below:

Molarity of Fe(NO3)3 = 0.250 M

Volume = 35 mL = 35/1000 = 0.035 L

Mole of Fe(NO3)3 =?

Molarity = mole /Volume

0.250 = mole of Fe(NO3)3 / 0.035

Cross multiply

Mole of Fe(NO3)3 = 0.25 x 0.035

Mole of Fe(NO3)3 = 8.75×10¯³ mole

Next, we shall determine the number of mole of KOH in 55 mL of 0.180 M

KOH solution. This is illustrated below:

Molarity of KOH = 0.180 M

Volume = 55 mL = 55/1000 = 0.055 L

Mole of KOH =.?

Molarity = mole /Volume

0.180 = mole of KOH /0.055

Cross multiply

Mole of KOH = 0.180 x 0.055

Mole of KOH = 9.9×10¯³ mole.

Next, we shall write the balanced equation for the reaction. This is given below:

3KOH + Fe(NO3)3 —> Fe(OH)3 + 3KNO3

From the balanced equation above,

3 moles of KOH reacted with 1 mole of Fe(NO3)3 to produce 1 mole of Fe(OH)3.

Next, we shall determine the limiting reactant. This can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

3 moles of KOH reacted with 1 mole of Fe(NO3)3.

Therefore, 9.9×10¯³ mole of KOH will react with = (9.9×10¯³ x 1)/3 = 3.3×10¯³ mole of Fe(NO3)3.

From the above illustration, we can see that only 3.3×10¯³ mole out of 8.75×10¯³ mole of Fe(NO3)3 given is needed to react completely with 9.9×10¯³ mole of KOH.

Therefore, KOH is the limiting reactant and Fe(NO3)3 is the excess reactant.

Next, we shall determine the number of mole of Fe(OH)3 produced from the reaction.

In this case, we shall use the limiting reactant because it will give the maximum yield of Fe(OH)3 as all of it is consumed in the reaction.

The limiting reactant is KOH and the mole of Fe(OH)3 produce can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

3 moles of KOH reacted to produce 1 mole of Fe(OH)3.

Therefore, 9.9×10¯³ mole of KOH will react to produce = (9.9×10¯³ x 1)/3 = 3.3×10¯³ mole of Fe(OH)3.

Finally, we shall convert 3.3×10¯³ mole of Fe(OH)3 to grams. This can be obtained as follow:

Molar mass of Fe(OH)3 = 56 + 3(16 + 1) = 56 + 3(17) = 107 g/mol

Mole of Fe(OH)3 = 3.3×10¯³ mole

Mass of Fe(OH)3 =?

Mole = mass /Molar mass

3.3×10¯³ = Mass of Fe(OH)3 / 107

Cross multiply

Mass of Fe(OH)3 = 3.3×10¯³ x 107

Mass of Fe(OH)3 = 0.3531 ≈ 0.35 g.

Therefore, 0.35 g of Fe(OH)3 was produced from the reaction.

Answer:

\huge\boxed{\sf KCl_{(aq)}+Na_{(aq)} \longrightarrow K_{(l)}+NaCl_{(aq)}}

Explanation:

<u>Chemical formulas for every compound:</u>

Potassium vapor => K_{(l)

Molten soldium chloride => NaCl_{(aq)}

Molten Potassium chloride => KCl_{(aq)}

Molten Sodium Metal => Na_{(aq)}

<u>The reaction will be as follows:</u>

KCl_{(aq)}+Na_{(aq)} \longrightarrow K_{(l)}+NaCl_{(aq)}

This reaction is usually called displacement reaction in which an element displaces another element of a compund.

Shalnov [3]

Explanation:

SOLID

Sodium hydroxide exists in the solid phase at room temperature. You would find it in the lab as hemispherical white solid pellets. The phase of a substance depends on temperature and pressure. As you heat a solid, it will melt and change to the liquid phase.
