Answer:

Aqueous layer (1 M HCI)

Explanation:

First of us I want to remind you of the cliché in chemistry that like dissolves like. In solvent extraction, a mixture is dissolved in a system consisting of two immiscible solvents. One layer is organic while the other layer is aqueous.

Polar substances partition in the aqueous layer while nonpolar substances partition in the organic layer.

Since Copper sulfate is ionic, we will find it in the aqueous layer according to the old chemistry cliche.

3. After 7.9 grams of sodium are dropped into a bathtub full of water, how many grams of hydrogen gas are released?
Pavel [41]

Answer:

3) About 0.35 grams of hydrogen gas.

4) About 65.2 grams of aluminum oxide.

Explanation:

Question 3)

We are given that 7.9 grams of sodium is dropped into a bathtub of water, and we want to determine how many grams of hydrogen gas is released.

Since sodium is higher than hydrogen on the activity series, sodium will replace hydrogen in a single-replacement reaction for sodium oxide. Hence, our equation is:

\displaystyle \text{Na} + \text{H$_2$O}\rightarrow \text{Na$_2$O}+\text{H$_2$}

To balance it, we can simply add another sodium atom on the left. Hence:

\displaystyle 2\text{Na} + \text{H$_2$O}\rightarrow \text{Na$_2$O}+\text{H$_2$}

To convert from grams of sodium to grams of hydrogen gas, we can convert from sodium to moles of sodium, use the mole ratios to find moles in hydrogen gas, and then use hydrogen's molar mass to find its amount in grams.

The molar mass of sodium is 22.990 g/mol. Hence:

\displaystyle \frac{1\text{ mol Na}}{22.990 \text{ g Na}}

From the chemical equation, we can see that two moles of sodium produce one mole of hydrogen gas. Hence:

\displaystyle \frac{1\text{ mol H$_2$}}{2\text{ mol Na}}

And the molar mass of hydrogen gas is 2.016 g/mol. Hence:

\displaystyle \frac{2.016\text{ g H$_2$}}{1\text{ mol H$_2$}}

Given the initial value and the above ratios, this yields:

\displaystyle 7.9\text{ g Na}\cdot \displaystyle \frac{1\text{ mol Na}}{22.990 \text{ g Na}}\cdot \displaystyle \frac{1\text{ mol H$_2$}}{2\text{ mol Na}}\cdot \displaystyle \frac{2.016\text{ g H$_2$}}{1\text{ mol H$_2$}}

Cancel like units:

=\displaystyle 7.9\cdot \displaystyle \frac{1}{22.990}\cdot \displaystyle \frac{1}{2}\cdot \displaystyle \frac{2.016\text{ g H$_2$}}{1}

Multiply. Hence:

=0.3463...\text{ g H$_2$}

Since we should have two significant values:

=0.35\text{ g H$_2$}

So, about 0.35 grams of hydrogen gas will be released.

Question 4)

Excess oxygen gas is added to 34.5 grams of aluminum and produces aluminum oxide. Hence, our chemical equation is:

\displaystyle \text{O$_2$} + \text{Al} \rightarrow \text{Al$_2$O$_3$}

To balance this, we can place a three in front of the oxygen, four in front of aluminum, and two in front of aluminum oxide. Hence:

\displaystyle3\text{O$_2$} + 4\text{Al} \rightarrow 2\text{Al$_2$O$_3$}

To convert from grams of aluminum to grams of aluminum oxide, we can convert aluminum to moles, use the mole ratios to find the moles of aluminum oxide, and then use its molar mass to determine the amount of grams.

The molar mass of aluminum is 26.982 g/mol. Thus:

\displaystyle \frac{1\text{ mol Al}}{26.982 \text{ g Al}}

According to the equation, four moles of aluminum produces two moles of aluminum oxide. Hence:

\displaystyle \frac{2\text{ mol Al$_2$O$_3$}}{4\text{ mol Al}}

And the molar mass of aluminum oxide is 101.961 g/mol. Hence: \displaystyle \frac{101.961\text{ g Al$_2$O$_3$}}{1\text{ mol Al$_2$O$_3$}}

Using the given value and the above ratios, we acquire:

\displaystyle 34.5\text{ g Al}\cdot \displaystyle \frac{1\text{ mol Al}}{26.982 \text{ g Al}}\cdot \displaystyle \frac{2\text{ mol Al$_2$O$_3$}}{4\text{ mol Al}}\cdot \displaystyle \frac{101.961\text{ g Al$_2$O$_3$}}{1\text{ mol Al$_2$O$_3$}}

Cancel like units:

\displaystyle= \displaystyle 34.5\cdot \displaystyle \frac{1}{26.982}\cdot \displaystyle \frac{2}{4}\cdot \displaystyle \frac{101.961\text{ g Al$_2$O$_3$}}{1}

Multiply:

\displaystyle = 65.1852... \text{ g Al$_2$O$_3$}

Since the resulting value should have three significant figures:

\displaystyle = 65.2 \text{ g Al$_2$O$_3$}

So, approximately 65.2 grams of aluminum oxide is produced.

A chemist wants to calculate the amount of heat that is absorbed by a sample of copper as it is melted. Which constant should sh
34kurt

The constant used for the absorption of heat by the sample in melting is +\Delta H_{fus}.  Thus, option A is correct.

The chemical reaction has been defined as the energy in which the energy has been released or absorbed for the breaking of bonds in the reactants and the formation of product.

<h3>Constant for energy absorbed</h3>

The energy has been absorbed in the melting of the copper sample. Thus, the sample has been converted from the solid to the liquid state.

The change in energy with the conversion in solid and liquid state has been termed as heat of fusion.

The energy has been absorbed by the system, thus it has been marked with the positive sign.

Therefore, +\Delta H_{fus} has been the constant used for the absorption of heat by the sample in melting. Thus, option A is correct.

Which salt is produced when NH4OH Reacts with HNO3
borishaifa [10]

Explanation:

When an acid reacts with a base then it results in the formation of salt and water.

HNO_{3} is an acid and NH_{4}OH is a base thus, when we dissolve ammonium hydroxide in nitric acid then it results in the formation of ammonium nitrate and water.

The reaction is as follows.

 NH_{4}OH + HNO_{3} \rightarrow NH_{4}NO_{3} + H_{2}O

Hence, there will be formation of ammonium nitrate (NH_{4}NO_{3}) salt.
