Why is a homogeneous mixture not considered a pure substance? Question 6 options: A pure substance can be separated by physical
krok68 [10]

1. Why is a homogeneous mixture not considered a pure substance?

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

  • A pure substance can be separated by chemical means, while a mixture can be separated by physical means.

2. What is true if mass is conserved in a reaction?

<em><u>Answer:</u></em>

  • There are equal numbers of atoms on both sides.

3. <em>Methane reacts with oxygen then what are the products?</em>

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

  • carbon dioxide and water

4. Which one of the following is not a homogeneous mixture?

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

  • vegetable soup

5. The substance is not uniform in appearance and each part of the mixture contains a combination of different ingredients in different ratios.

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

  • heterogeneous mixtures

6. If a solution is saturated, which of these is true?

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

  • More solvent can be dissolved

7. Which of these substances are molecules?

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

  • All compounds are molecules but not all molecules are compounds. Molecular oxygen (O2) and molecular nitrogen (N2) are not compounds because each is composed of a single element. So correct option is 3 and 4.

8. What makes a solution a homogeneous mixture?

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

  • It is uniform in composition.

9. When a solute is added to a solution, why does it remain homogeneous?

<em>Answer:</em>

  • The solute dissolves.

10. The chemical formula of glucose is C6H12O6, so it is classified as a(n)

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

  • pure substance.

11. <em>How many chlorine (Cl) atoms would be in 4 molecules of salt (4 NaCl)?</em>

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

  • 4

12. <em>In a solution of salt and water, which component is the solute?</em>

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

  • Salt

13. These substances are all   H2O2,   Li , NaCl , O2

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

  • Pure Substances

14. If you have 5 grams of product after a chemical reaction, how many grams of reactants did you have at the start of the reaction?

<em>Answer:</em>

  • 5

15. What is the difference between a compound and a mixture?

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

  • A compound is a pure substance, but a mixture is not.

16. A firework exploding would be an example of a(n) ________.

<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

  • Exothermic reaction

17. If Lavoisier heated 100 grams of powdered mercuric oxide to produce 93 grams of liquid mercury, how much oxygen would be released?

Solution

                       2HgO ==> 2Hg + O2

Mass of HgO = 100 g

Molar mass of HgO = 216.59 g/mol

Moles = mass/molar mass = 0.46 moles

From balance chemcial equation

   HgO :  O2

      2  =    1

    0.46 = (1 × 0.46 ) ÷ 2 = 0.23 moles

mass of O2 = moles× molar mass = 0.23 × 32 = 7.36 g

18. Using the Law of Conservation of Matter, determine the number of grams of iron sulfide (FeS) that will be produced in this reaction.

<em><u>Solution</u></em>

                         12g Fe + 64g S → _____ g FeS

  • According to Law of Conservation of Matter, The total mass of reactant is equal to total mass of  product , so the number of grams of iron sulfide (FeS) that will be produced in this reaction as follow.

                              12 + 64 = 76 g of FeS


Hope this Help.

A galvanic (voltaic) cell consists of an electrode composed of zinc in a 1.0 M zinc ion solution and another electrode composed
MariettaO [177]

Answer:

The E°cell for the galvanic cell is 1.56 V.

Explanation:

A galvanic cell is a device that uses redox reactions to convert chemical energy into electrical energy. The chemical reaction used is always spontaneous.

Oxide-reduction reactions, also called redox, involve the transfer or transfer of electrons between two or more chemical species. In these reactions two substances interact: the reducing agent and the oxidizing agent.

The gain of electrons is called reduction and the loss of electrons oxidation. That is to say, there is oxidation whenever an atom or group of atoms loses electrons (or increases its positive charges) and in the reduction an atom or group of atoms gains electrons, increasing its negative charges or decreasing the positive ones.

The species that supplies electrons is the reducing agent (that is, it is that species that oxidizes, yielding electrons and increasing its positive charge, or decreasing the negative one causing the reduction of the other species) and the one that gains them is the oxidizing agent ( that is, it is that species that is reduced, capturing electrons and increasing its negative charge, or decreasing its positive charge, causing oxidation of the other species).

The galvanic cell works as follows: In the anodic half-cell oxidations occur, while in the cathodic half-cell reductions occur. The anode electrode, conducts the electrons that are released in the oxidation reaction, to the metallic conductors. These electrical conductors conduct the electrons and carry them to the cathode electrode; the electrons thus enter the cathode half-cell and the reduction takes place in it.

To determine the oxidizing and reducing agent you must first know the reduction potentials. For this you consult the list of standard reduction potentials. In this list you can see that the semi-reactions that occur with their corresponding potentials are:

Ag⁺ + e⁻ ⇒ Ag E°= 0.80 V

Zn²⁺ + 2 e⁻ ⇒ Zn E° -0.76 V

The species that has the greatest potential for reduction will be the species that will be reduced, that is, it will be the oxidizing agent. In this case, it will be the experience corresponding to silver (Ag). Therefore, to obtain the redox reaction, the half-reaction corresponding to zinc (Zn) must be reversed to be an oxidation, keeping its E ° value constant. Then:

Reduction: Ag⁺ + e⁻ ⇒ Ag E°= 0.80 V

Oxidation: Zn ⇒ Zn²⁺ + 2 e⁻ E° -0.76 V

So: <em>E°cell=Ereduction - Eoxidation</em>

Or what is the same<em> E°cell=Ecathode - Eanode </em>because the reduction always occurs in the cathode and oxidation in the anode.

E°cell=0.80 V - (-0.76) V

<em>E°cell= 1.56 V</em>

Then <u><em>the E°cell for the galvanic cell is 1.56 V.</em></u>
