uncovered beaker, after the reaction the beaker weighed 5 gms which of the following is the best explanation?
A Some of the mass of the reactants was lost as heat and evaporated into the air.
B. The reaction produce a gas as a product.

Answer:

B. The reaction produce a gas as a product.

Explanation:

According to the law of conservation of mass, the total mass of reactants must be equal to the total mass of products because mass is neither created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction.

The total mass of the reactants is 7 grams. The total mass of the products and the beaker is 5 grams. This means that the mass of products is less than the mass of reactants.

The only plausible explanation for this is that the reaction produced a gaseous product which escaped because the system is an open system thereby leading to a  lesser measured mass of products since mass can not be created nor destroyed.

Urea makes up a significant amount of urine, and is the chemical that the body uses to rid cells of unwanted carbon dioxide and
Ira Lisetskai [31]
Urea is highly soluble in water. When it is allowed to dissolve in water in the presence of heat, it will yield ammonia and carbon dioxide. The reaction is shown below:

<span>NH2-CO-NH2 + H2O </span>⇒ 2 NH3 + CO2

As you can observe in the stoichiometric equations, 1 molecule of water can dissolve with 1 mole of urea.

What is/are the principal product(s) formed when excess methylmagnesium iodide reacts with p-hydroxyacetophenone?
Montano1993 [528]

The end product will depend upon

a) the amount of the reagent taken

b) the final treatment of the reaction

If we have just taken methylmagnesium iodide and p-hydroxyacetophenone, then we will get methane and hydroxyl group substituted with MgI in place of hydrogen

Figure 1

However if we have taken excess of methylmagnesium iodide which is Grignard's reagent followed by hydrolysis we will get different product

Buckets of paint can be classified as what type of mixture?
marysya [2.9K]

Answer:

Homogeneous

Explanation:

Homogeneous mixtures are uniform in composition. They have the same proportion of components throughout. Homogeneous mixtures are called solutions.  Sugar, paint, alcohol, gold are all examples of homogeneous mixtures because they look the same throughout.

Consider the following scenario
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

See explaination

Explanation:

Going by the clues that it is between Silver Flouride (AgF) and Sodium Fluoride (NaF) and since it is an aqueous solution , the 1 liter bottle is likely to be Sodium Chloride( NaCl). Going by the reaction,

AgF + NaCl= AgCl + NaF

Here, the color of AgCl is white, hence the solution cannot be AgCl.

Determination of NaCl

Determination of NaCl can be done by Mohr's Method or Volhard's method. But results in Volhard's method are more accurate . Its uses the method of back titration with Potassium Thiocynate which forms a AgCl precipitate . Prior to titration,excess AgNO3 ( The problem also has a clue that excess reagents are present in the lab ) is added to the NaCl solution so that all the Cl- ions react with Ag+. Fe3+ is then added as an indicator and the solution is titrated with KSCN to form a silver thiocyannite precipitate (AgSCN). Once all the silver has reacted, a slight excess of SCN- reacts with Fe3+ to form Fe(SCN)3 dark red complex. The concentration of Cl- is determined by subtracting the titer findings of Ag+ ions that reacted to form AgSCN from the Ag NO3 moles added to the solution. This is used because pH of the solution is acidic. If the pH of solution is basic, Mohr's method is used.

Reactions

Ag+ (aq)+ Cl-(aq) = AgCl(aq)

Ag+(aq) + SCN-(aq) = AgSCN(aq)

Fe3+(aq) + SCN-(aq) = [FeSCN]2- (aq)
