Answer:

$m_{Cu(NO_3)_2}=2.36 gCu(NO_3)_2$

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the chemical reaction between copper and nitric acid is:

$2HNO_3+Cu\rightarrow Cu(NO_3)_2+H_2$

By starting with 0.80 g of copper metal (molar mass = 63.54 g/mol) and considering the 1:1 mole ratio between copper and copper (II) nitrate (molar mass = 187.56 g/mol) we can compute that mass via stoichiometry as shown below:

$m_{Cu(NO_3)_2}=0.80gCu*\frac{1molCu}{63.54gCu} *\frac{1molCu(NO_3)_2}{1molCu} *\frac{187.56gCu(NO_3)_2}{1molCu(NO_3)_2} \\\\m_{Cu(NO_3)_2}=2.36 gCu(NO_3)_2$

However, the real reaction between copper and nitric acid releases nitrogen oxide, yet it does not modify the calculations since the 1:1 mole ratio is still there:

$4HNO_3+Cu\rightarrow Cu(NO_3)_2+2H_2O+2NO_2$

Best regards!

Finger [1]

Answer : The molar mass of the solute will be 87.90 g/mol.

Explanation : We know the formula for elevation in boiling point, which is

Δt = i $K_{b}$ m

given that, Δt = 0.357, $K_{b}$ = 5.02 and mass of $CCl _{4}$ = 40,

on substituting the value we get,
0.357 = (1) X (5.02) X (x/ 0.044), on solving we get x = 2.844 X $10^{-3}$ .
Now, 0.250/ 2.844 X $10^{-3}$ = 87.90 g/mol. which is the weight of unknown component.

Answer:

H_2O + 2CrO_4^2- + 3SO_3^2- -> 3SO_3^2- + 2CrO_2^- + 2OH^-

Explanation:

Reduction half reaction

2H_2O + CrO_4^2- + 3e -> CrO_2^- + 4OH^-

Oxidation half reaction

2OH^- + SO_3^2- -> SO_4^2- + H_2O + 2e

Balanced overall equation

H_2O + 2CrO_4^2- + 3SO_3^2- -> 3SO_3^2- + 2CrO_2^- + 2OH^-
