Answer: $6.38\times 10^{23}$ molecules of water are produced.

Explanation:

To calculate the moles :

$\text{Moles of solute}=\frac{\text{given mass}}{\text{Molar Mass}}$

$\text{Moles of} Fe(OH)_3=\frac{75.50g}{106.8g/mol}=0.707moles$

The balanced chemical reaction is:

$2Fe(OH)_3\rightarrow Fe_2O_3+3H_2O$

According to stoichiometry :

2 moles of $Fe_2O_3$ produce = 3 moles of $H_2O$

Thus 0.707 moles of $Fe_2O_3$ will produce= $\frac{3}{2}\times 0.707=1.06moles$ of $H_2O$

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance contains avogadro's number $6.023\times 10^{23}$ of particles.

Thus 1.06 moles of $H_2O$ contains = $\frac{6.023\times 10^{23}}{1}\times 1.06=6.38\times 10^{23}$ molecules

Compare and contrast the Bohr model and the electron cloud models of the atom.

bogdanovich [222]

Here we have to compare the Bohr atomic model with electron cloud model.

In the Bohr's atomic model the electrons of an element is assumed to be particle in nature. Which was unable to explain the deBroglie' hypothesis or the uncertainty principle and has certain demerits.

The uncertainty principle reveals the wave nature of the electrons or electron clod model. The Bohr condition of a stable orbits of the electron can nicely be explained by the electron cloud model, the mathematical form of which is λ = nh/mv, where, λ = wavelength, n is the integral number, h = Planck's constant, m = mass of the electron and v = velocity of the electron.

The integral number i.e. n is similar to the mathematical form of Bohr's atomic model, which is mvr = nh/2π. (r = radius of the orbit).

Thus, the electron cloud model is an extension of the Bohr atomic model, which can explain the demerits of the Bohr model. Later it is revealed that the electron have both particle and wave nature. Which is only can explain all the features of the electrons around a nucleus of an element.

How many moles of hcl are required to make 500 ml of a 3.0 mol/l solution of hcl?

LiRa [457]

Answer:

1.5 moles

Explanation:

To find the number of moles of HCl in 500 mL of a 3 M solution of HCl, we consider moles in 1 liter/ 1000 mL.

3 moles HCl is contained in 1000 mL

x moles is HCl is contained in 500 mL

$= \frac{3 \: \times \: 500}{1000} \: moles \\ = 1.5 \: moles$

Hence the number of moles of HCl in 500 mL is 1.5 moles.

Sodium bicarbonate is sometimes used to neutralize acid spills. If 2.0 L of 1.0 M H2SO4 is spilled, what mass of sodium bicarbon

UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

168.0 g

Explanation:

First thing, write a balanced chemical equation:

$H_{2}SO_{4}+ 2NaHCO_{3} ----> Na_{2}SO_{4} + 2H_{2}O+2CO_{2}$

n(H2SO4) = concentration * volume

= 1.0 M * 2.0 L

= 2.0 mol

According to the balanced equation, 1 mol of acid requires 2 mol of sodium bicarbonate. This means that 2 mol of acid requires 2 mol of sodium bicarbonate. What mass of sodium bicarbonate is this?

mass (NaHCO3) = number of moles * molar mass

= 2.0 mol * 84.0065 g/mol

= 168.0 g

The potential energy on a spring is proportional to the square of which of these quantities

erica [24]

The magnitude of the force required to change the length of a spring-like object is directly proportional to the spring constant and the displacement of the spring. Elastic potential energy is directly proportional to the square of the change in length and the spring constant.
