Answer:
0.7g of HCl
Explanation:
First, let us write a balanced equation for the reaction between HCl and Al(OH)3.
This is illustrated below:
Al(OH)3 + 3HCl —> AlCl3 + 3H2O
Next, let us obtain the masses of Al(OH)3 and HCl that reacted together according to the equation. This can be achieved as shown below:
Molar Mass of Al(OH)3 = 27 + 3(16+1)
= 27 + 3(17) = 27 + 51 = 78g/mol.
Molar Mass of HCl = 1 + 35.5 = 36.5g/mol
Mass of HCl from the balanced equation = 3 x 36.5 = 109.5g
Now we can obtain the mass of HCl that would react with 0.5g of Al(OH)3. This can be achieved as follow:
Al(OH)3 + 3HCl —> AlCl3 + 3H2O
From the equation above,
78g of Al(OH)3 reacted with 109.5g of HCl.
Therefore, 0.5g of Al(OH)3 will react with = (0.5 x 109.5)/78 = 0.7g of HCl
Answer:
The ion will repel the substance because it has more protons than electrons.

Answer:
Empirical CHO
molecular C4H4O4
Explanation:
From the question, we know that it contains 41.39% C , 3.47% H and the rest oxygen. To get the % composition of the oxygen, we simply add the carbon and hydrogen together and subtract from 100%.
This means : O = 100 - 41.39 - 3.47 = 55.14%
Next is to divide the percentage compositions by their atomic masses.
C = 41.39/12 = 3.45
O = 55.14/16 = 3.45
H = 3.47/1 = 3.47
Now we divide by the smallest value which is 3.45. We can deduce that this will definitely give us an answer of 1 all through as the values are very similar.
Hence the empirical formula of Maleic acid is CHO
Now we go on to deduce the molecular formula.
To do this we need the molar mass. I.e the amount in grammes per one mole of the compound.
Now we can see that 0.378mole = 43.8g
Then 1 mole = xg
x = (43.8*1)/0.378 = 115.87 = apprx 116
[CHO]n = 116
(12 + 1 + 16]n = 116
29n = 116
n = 116/29 = 4
The molecular formula is thus C4H4O4
