Answer:

They will be considered ions of the same element.

Explanation:

Ions form from elements when they gain or loss an electron, causing the number of protons (positively charged) to be unequal to the number of electrons (negatively charged), resulting in a net charge.

If there are more electrons than protons (from an element gaining 1 or more electrons), the ion is negatively charged and is called an anion.

If there are more protons than electrons (via the loss of electrons), the ion is positively charged and is called a cation.

Ammonia and oxygen react to produce nitric oxide and water. Which of the following chemical equations describes this reaction an

aksik [14]

Answer:

Option B. 4NH3(g) + 5O2(g) —> 4NO(g) + 6H2O(g)

Explanation:

The reaction between ammonia, NH3 and oxygen, O2, will produce nitric oxide and water as shown below:

NH3(g) + O2(g) —> NO(g) + H2O(g)

Now, let us balance the equation.

This is illustrated below:

NH3(g) + O2(g) —> NO(g) + H2O(g)

There are 3 atoms of H on the left side and 2 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by putting 4 in front of NH3 and 6 in front of H2O as shown below:

4NH3(g) + O2(g) —> NO(g) + 6H2O(g)

There are 4 atoms of N on the left side and 1 atom on the right side. It can be balance by putting 4 in front of NO as shown below:

4NH3(g) + O2(g) —> 4NO(g) + 6H2O(g)

Now, the are 2 atoms of O on the left side and a total of 10 atoms on the right side. It can be balance by putting 5 in front of O2 as shown below:

4NH3(g) + 5O2(g) —> 4NO(g) + 6H2O(g)

Now, we can see that the equation is balanced.

Therefore, option B gives the balanced chemical equation for the reaction.

If 12.5 grams of strontium hydroxide is reacted with 150 mL of 3.5 M carbonic acid, identify the limiting reactant.

vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

Sr(OH)2

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the number of mole of carbonic acid in 150mL of 3.5 M carbonic acid solution. This is illustrated below:

Molarity = 3.5M

Volume = 150mL = 150/1000 = 0.15L

Mole of carbonic acid, H2CO3 =..?

Mole = Molarity x Volume

Mole of carbonic acid, H2CO3 = 3.5 x 0.15 = 0.525 mole.

Next, we shall convert 0.525 mole of carbonic acid, H2CO3 to grams.

Mole of H2CO3 = 0.525 mole

Molar mass of H2CO3 = (2x1) + 12 + (16x3) = 62g/mol.

Mass of H2CO3 =..?

Mass = mole x molar mass

Mass of H2CO3 = 0.525 x 62 = 32.55g

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

Sr(OH)2 + H2CO3 → SrCO3 + 2H2O

Next, we shall determine the mass of Sr(OH)2 and H2CO3 that reacted from the balanced equation. This is illustrated below:

Molar mass of Sr(OH)2 = 88 + 2(16 + 1) = 88 + 2(17) = 122g/mol

Mass of Sr(OH)2 from the balanced equation = 1 x 122 = 122g

Molar mass of H2CO3 = (2x1) + 12 + (16x3) = 62g/mol.

Mass of H2CO3 from the balanced equation = 1 x 62 = 62g.

From the balanced equation above, 122g of Sr(OH)2 reacted with 62g of H2CO3.

Finally, we shall determine the limiting reactant as follow:

From the balanced equation above, 122g of Sr(OH)2 reacted with 62g of H2CO3.

Therefore, 12.5g of Sr(OH)2 will react with = (12.5 x 62)/122 = 6.35g.

We can see evidently from the calculations made above that it will take 6.35g out 32.55g of H2CO3 to react with 12.5g of Sr(OH)2. Therefore, Sr(OH)2 is the limiting reactant and H2CO3 is the excess reactant

Suppose of copper(II) acetate is dissolved in of a aqueous solution of sodium chromate. Calculate the final molarity of acetate

uranmaximum [27]

Answer:

0.0714 M for the given variables

Explanation:

The question is missing some data, but one of the original questions regarding this problem provides the following data:

Mass of copper(II) acetate: $m_{(AcO)_2Cu} = 0.972 g$

Volume of the sodium chromate solution: $V_{Na_2CrO_4} = 150.0 mL$

Molarity of the sodium chromate solution: $c_{Na_2CrO_4} = 0.0400 M$

Now, when copper(II) acetate reacts with sodium chromate, an insoluble copper(II) chromate is formed:

$(CH_3COO)_2Cu (aq) + Na_2CrO_4 (aq)\rightarrow 2 CH_3COONa (aq) + CuCrO_4 (s)$

Find moles of each reactant. or copper(II) acetate, divide its mass by the molar mass:

$n_{(AcO)_2Cu} = \frac{0.972 g}{181.63 g/mol} = 0.0053515 mol$

Moles of the sodium chromate solution would be found by multiplying its volume by molarity:

$n_{Na_2CrO_4} = 0.0400 M\cdot 0.1500 L = 0.00600 mol$

Find the limiting reactant. Notice that stoichiometry of this reaction is 1 : 1, so we can compare moles directly. Moles of copper(II) acetate are lower than moles of sodium chromate, so copper(II) acetate is our limiting reactant.

Write the net ionic equation for this reaction:

$Cu^{2+} (aq) + CrO_4^{2-} (aq)\rightarrow CuCrO_4 (s)$

Notice that acetate is the ion spectator. This means it doesn't react, its moles throughout reaction stay the same. We started with:

$n_{(AcO)_2Cu} = 0.0053515 mol$

According to stoichiometry, 1 unit of copper(II) acetate has 2 units of acetate, so moles of acetate are equal to:

$n_{AcO^-} = 2\cdot 0.0053515 mol = 0.010703 mol$

The total volume of this solution doesn't change, so dividing moles of acetate by this volume will yield the molarity of acetate:

$c_{AcO^-} = \frac{0.010703 mol}{0.1500 L} = 0.0714 M$
