Answer: X could represent the element of oxidation state (+2) such as (Mg2+, Pb2+, Ba2+, Ca2+, Ba2+, Zn2+, ....etc)

Explanation:

The formula of the compound XSO4 is a neutral compound that the algebraic summation of the oxidation states of different elements in it must be zero.

The group SO4 has the oxidation state (2-), that S has (6+) oxidation state and O has (2-) oxidation state, so the oxidation of SO4 = (6+) + (-2*4) = -2.

It is clear that X must have the oxidation state 2+.

So, X could be represents by many different elements such as (Mg2+, Pb2+, Ba2+, Ca2+, Ba2+, Zn2+, Fe2+, ....etc)

X represents group 5A by my periodic table. P2O5 is an example. Since there's charge specified, it must be a neutral atom. For this, each of the X would need a +5 charge. On the other hand, if it's in group 15, then it can form a covalent bond, since each atom in group 15 can share 5 atoms.

What is the volume of 220 grams of an object with a density of 55g/cm square

AnnyKZ [126]

I'm assuming that you meant 55 g/cm^3. Density= $\frac{Mass}{Volume}$ . This is the definition of density. If you rearrange this equation by multiplying each side of the equation by the volume, you get: (Density)(Volume)=Mass. Divide each side by the density to get: Volume=Mass/Density. Now just plug everything in:
V=220 (grams)/55 (grams/cm^3)=4 cm^3

If the mass of the baking soda before the reaction was 10 grams and the mass of the vinegar was 15 grams and all of the baking s

Masteriza [31]

Answer:

8.946g NaHCO₃,

14.475g H₂O,

1.025g CH₃COO⁻Na⁺,

0.500g CO₂.

Explanation:

Baking soda (NaHCO₃) reacts with vinegar (CH₃COOH 5%) producing CH₃COO⁻Na⁺, H₂O and CO₂, thus:

NaHCO₃ + CH₃COOH → CH₃COO⁻Na⁺ + H₂O + CO₂

10g of NaHCO₃ are:

10g × (1mol / 84g) = 0.119 moles NaHCO₃

Moles of CH₃COOH in 15g of vinegar are:

15g vinegar × 5% = 0.75g CH₃COOH × (1mol / 60g) = 0.0125moles CH₃ COOH

After reaction, moles of NaHCO₃ that remains are:

0.119mol - 0.0125mol = 0.1065 moles NaHCO₃

In mass:

0.1065mol ₓ (84g / 1mol) = 8.946g NaHCO₃

Acetic acid reacts completely producing 0.0125moles of CH₃COO⁻Na⁺, water and CO₂. In mass:

CH₃COO⁻Na⁺ = 0.0125mol ₓ (82.03g / 1mol) = 1.025g CH₃COO⁻Na⁺

H₂O = 0.0125mol ₓ (18.01g / 1mol) = 0.225g H₂O

CO₂ = 0.0125mol ₓ (40g / 1mol) = 0.500g CO₂

Now, 95% of vinegar is water (Doesn't react), that is:

15g × 95% = 14.25g H₂O. Total mass of water is:

14.25g + 0.225g = 14.475g H₂O

Total mass is:

8.946g + 14.475g H₂O + 1.025g + 0.500g ≈ 25g. The same than initial mass following law of conservation of matter.
