The minerals that one might be examining if you place some hydrochloric acid on a sample and it fizzes are Calcite and Dolomite.
Calcite and dolomite are very similar minerals. Both have the same hardness, the same rhombohedral cleavage, and are found in identical geologic settings. The best way to tell one from the other is the acid test; A drop of 1 M HCl on calcite produces an instant , obvious Fizz; a drop on dolomite produces slow or no obvious bubbling.
Answer:
Mass = 1.33 g
Explanation:
Given data:
Mass of argon required = ?
Volume of bulb = 0.745 L
Temperature and pressure = standard
Solution:
We will calculate the number of moles of argon first.
Formula:
PV = nRT
R = general gas constant = 0.0821 atm.L/mol.K
By putting values,
1 atm ×0.745 L = n × 0.0821 atm.L/mol.K× 273.15 K
0.745 atm. L = n × 22.43 atm.L/mol
n = 0.745 atm. L / 22.43 atm.L/mol
n = 0.0332 mol
Mass of argon:
Mass = number of moles × molar mass
Mass = 0.0332 mol × 39.95 g/mol
Mass = 1.33 g
