Question 6 of 10

A 5.000 g mixture contains strontium nitrate and potassium bromide. Excess lead(II) nitrate solution is added to precipitate out

scZoUnD [109]

Answer: The mass percent of potassium bromide in the mixture is 9.996%

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$ .....(1)

For lead (II) bromide:

Given mass of lead (II) bromide = 0.7822 g

Molar mass of lead (II) bromide = 367 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of lead (II) bromide}=\frac{0.7822g}{367g/mol}=0.0021mol$

The chemical equation for the reaction of lead (II) nitrate and potassium bromide follows:

$2KBr+Pb(NO_3)_2\rightarrow PbBr_2+2KNO_3$

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of lead (II) bromide is produced from 2 moles of potassium bromide

So, 0.0021 moles of lead (II) bromide will be produced from = $\frac{2}{1}\times 0.0021=0.0042mol$ of potassium bromide

Now, calculating the mass of potassium bromide by using equation 1, we get:

Molar mass of KBr = 119 g/mol

Moles of KBr = 0.0042 moles

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.0042mol=\frac{\text{Mass of KBr}}{119g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of KBr}=0.4998g$

To calculate the percentage composition of KBr in the mixture, we use the equation:

$\%\text{ composition of KBr}=\frac{\text{Mass of KBr}}{\text{Mass of mixture}}\times 100$

Mass of mixture = 5.000 g

Mass of KBr = 0.4998 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\%\text{ composition of KBr}=\frac{0.4998g}{5.000g}\times 100=9.996\%$

Hence, the percent by mass of KBr in the mixture is 9.996 %

The products

alexandr1967 [171]

Answer:

The products of self-ionization of water are OH⁻ and H⁺.

Explanation:

The water is self ionized according to the equation:

H₂O → OH⁻ + H⁺.

The ionic product for water (Kw) = [OH⁻][H⁺] = 10⁻¹⁴.

Kw is also called "self-ionization constant" or "auto-ionization constant".

Unit: Stoichiometry

Reika [66]

Answer:

1. 2.41 × 1023 formula units

2. 122 L

3. 7.81 L

Explanation:

1. Equation of the reaction: 2 Na(NO3) + Ca(CO3) ---> Na2(CO3) + Ca(NO3)2

Mole ratio of NaNO3 to CaCO3 = 2 : 1

Moles of CaCO3 = mass/molar mass

Mass of CaCO3 = 20 g; molar mass of CaCO3 = 100 g

Moles of CaCO3 = 20 g/100 g/mol = 0.2 moles

Moles of NaNO3 = 2 × 0.2 moles = 0.4 moles

1 Mole of NaNO3 = 6.02 × 10²³ formula units

0.4 moles of NaNO3 = 0.4 × 6.02 × 10²³ = 2.41 × 1023 formula units

2. Equation of reaction : 2 H2O ----> 2 H2 + O2

Mole ratio of oxygen to water = 1 : 2

At STP contains 6.02 × 10²³ molecules = 1 mole of water

6.58 × 10²⁴ molecules = 6.58 × 10²⁴ molecules × 1 mole of water/ 6.02 × 10²³ molecules = 10.93 moles of water

Moles of oxygen gas produced = 10.93÷2 = 5.465 moles of oxygen gas

At STP, 1 mole of oxygen gas = 22.4 L

5.465 moles of oxygen gas = 5.465 moles × 22.4 L/1 mole = 122 L

3.Equation of reaction: 6 K + N2 ----> 2 K3N

Mole ratio of Nitrogen gas and potassium = 6 : 1

Moles potassium = mass/ molar mass

Mass of potassium = 90.0 g, molar mass of potassium = 39.0 g/mol

Moles of potassium = 90.0 g / 39.0 g/mol = 2.3077moles

Moles of Nitrogen gas = 2.3077 moles / 6 = 0.3846 moles

At STP, 1 mole of nitrogen gas = 22.4 L

0.3486 moles of oxygen gas = 0.3486 moles × 22.4 L/1 mole = 7.81 L

Which atom’s ionization energy is greater than that of phosphorus (P)? A. Ba B. K C. As D. Cl

WINSTONCH [101]

Answer is: D. Cl (chlorine).

The ionization energy (Ei) is the minimum amount of energy required to remove the valence electron, when element lose electrons, oxidation number of element grows (oxidation process).

Barium, potassium and arsenic are metals (easily lost valence electrons), chlorine is nonmetal (easily gain electrons).

Alkaline metals (in this example, potassium) have lowest ionizations energy and easy remove valence electrons (one electron), earth alkaline metals (in this example, barium) have higher ionization energy than alkaline metals, because they have two valence electrons.

Nonmetals (in this example chlorine) are far right in the main group and they have highest ionization energy, because they have many valence electrons.
