Assume that the ratio of moles of Cl to moles of Cu are 2.39. If we can represent the formula by CuClx, what is the value for x?

Round your answer to the nearest whole number. Do NOT include units. So, if you think the formula is CuCl6, you enter the number 6.

Answer:

x=2.

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since we have a mole ratio of moles of Cl to moles of Cu as 2.39, it is possible to write the following:

\frac{2.39molCl}{1molCu}

Thus, since the two possible copper chlorides are CuCl and CuCl₂, we can therefore infer that x=2 since it is close but not as close as it should to the whole number 2.

Best regards!

weeeeeb [17]
Biuret reagent will indicate the presence of protein in a given sample. It is also known as the Piotrowski's test. This reagent consists of copper (II) sulfate and sodium hydroxide. It detects peptide bonds by the reaction of the copper ions in an alkaline solution. The copper ions would form violet colored complexes when peptide is present in the solution. From this test, concentration can be calculated since the intensity of the color depends on the amount of peptide bonds and according to the Beer-Lambert law concentration and the absorption of light is proportional. The concentration is calculated by a spectrophotometric technique at a wavelength of 540 nm.

A mixture of two miscible liquids with a widely different boiling point is distilled. The temperature of distilled liquid is obs
svetoff [14.1K]

Answer:

The difference in temperature is significant means that the lower-boiling liquid finishes distilling at a temperature that is too low for the higher-boiling liquid to be in vapor form yet.

Explanation:

The temperature will rise as the vapor of lower-boiling liquid rushes into the distillation head. However once the lower-boiling liquid is done distilling, there is a temperature drop because while the lower temperature liquid is done distilling, the temperature is still too low for the higher-boiling liquid to be rushing in as a vapour, so the temperature drops.
