How many grams of iron metal do you expect to be produced when 325 grams of an 87.5 percent by mass iron (II) nitrate solution r

Debora [2.8K]

Answer: 88.2 g

Solution:

1) Chemical equation:

2Al (s) + 3Fe(NO3)2 (aq) → 3Fe (s) + 2Al(NO3)3 (aq)

2) Theoretical molar ratios

2 mol Al : 3 mol Fe(NO3)2 : 3 mol Fe : 2 mol Al(NO3)3

3) Starting mass of pure iron nitrate

% = (mass of iron nitrate / mass of solution) * 100 = 87.5

=> mass of iron nitrate = 87.5 * mass of solution / 100

mass of solution = 325 g

=> mass of iron nitrate = 87.5 * 325 g / 100 = 284.375 g

4) moles of iron nitrate

moles = mass in grams / molar mass

molar mass of Fe(NO3)2 = 179.85 g/mol

moles = 284.375 g/ 179.85 g/mol = 1.58 moles Fe(NO3)2

5) proportion:

 x 3 mol Fe
--------------------------- = ----------------------
1.58 mol Fe(NO3)2 3 mol Fe(NO3)2

Clear x:

x = 1.58 mol Fe

6) Convert 1.58 mol Fe into grams

mass = number of moles * atomic mass

atomic mass of iron = 55.845 g / mol

mass = 1.58 moles * 55.845 g/mol = 88.24 g

Rounded to 3 significant figures: 88.2 grams of Fe.

Consider a mixture of NaCl and NaNO3 that is 31.8% Na by mass. Calculate the percentage by mass of NaCl in the mixture.

lutik1710 [3]

Answer: The percentage by mass of NaCl in the mixture is 38.5 %

Explanation:

To calculate the mass percentage of element in compound, we use the equation:

$\text{Mass percent of element}=\frac{\text{Mass of element}}{\text{Mass of compound}}\times 100$ .......(1)

For NaCl:

Mass of sodium element = 23 g

Mass of NaCl = 58.5 g

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Mass percent of sodium element}=\frac{23g}{58.5g}\times 100=39.32\%$

Mass fraction of sodium metal in NaCl = 0.3932

For $NaNO_3$ :

Mass of sodium element = 23 g

Mass of $NaNO_3$ = 85 g

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Mass percent of sodium element}=\frac{23g}{85g}\times 100=27.1\%$

Mass fraction of sodium metal in sodium nitrate = 0.271

Let us assume the mass fraction of NaCl in the mixture is 'x'

So, the mass fraction of $NaNO_3$ in the mixture will be '(1-x)'

We are given:

Percent by mass of Na in the mixture = 31.8 %

Mass fraction of Na in the mixture = 0.318

Evaluating the mass fraction of NaCl in the mixture:

$[(x\times 0.3932)+((1-x)\times 0.271)]=0.318$

x = 0.385

Percent by mass of NaCl in the mixture will be = $(0.385\times 100)=38.5\%$

Hence, the percentage by mass of NaCl in the mixture is 38.5 %

A 50.51g sample of a compound made from phosphorus and chlorine is decomposed. Analysis of the products showed that 11.39 g of p

Alchen [17]

Ans: P = 22.5% and Cl = 77.5%

Given:

Total Mass of sample containing P and Cl = 50.51 g

Mass of P produced = 11.39 g

To determine:

Mass % of P and Cl

Explanation:

Mass % of a given element in a total mass is generally expressed as:

Mass % of element = [mass of element/total mass]*100

Here,

Total mass = mass of P + mass of Cl

mass of Cl = Total - mass of P = 50.51-11.39 = 39.12 g

% P = [11.39/50.51]*100 = 22.5%

%Cl = [39.12/50.51]*100 = 77.5%

What is the negative charge of an atom?

jekas [21]

Answer:

Atom has the tendency to attain stable electronic configuration of the nearest noble gas in accordance with the duplet and octet rule.hence,when an atom gains electron it becomes negatively charged and that is its negative charge making it an anion
