Butter goes rancid if we keep it outside the fridge.

Chemistry
1 answer:
rjkz [21]3 years ago
3 0
Salted butter does not need to be stored in the fridge since the risk of bacterial growth is so low. ... However, it will stay fresh longer if it is kept in the refrigerator. Refrigeration slows down the process of oxidation, which will eventually cause butter to go rancid.

I hope this helps!

A 1.26-g sample of an alkaline earth metal chloride is treated with excess silver nitrate. All of the chloride is recovered as 3
erastova [34]

Answer:

The metal is calcium (to form CaCl2)

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Mass of sample of an alkaline earth metal chloride = 1.26 grams

Silvernitrate (AgNO3) = in excess

All of the chloride is recovered as 3.26 g of silver chloride.

Step 2: The equation

XCl2 + 2AgNO3 → X(NO3)2+ 2 AgCl

Step 3: Calculate moles AgCl

Moles AgCl = mass AgCl / molar mass AgCl

Moles AgCl = 3.26 grams / 143.32 g/mol

Moles AgCl = 0.0227 moles

Step 4: Calculate moles XCl2

For 1 mol XCl2 we'll have 2 moles AgCl

For 2*0.0227 moles we need 0.0227/2 = 0.01135 moles

Step 5: Calculate molar mass XCl2

Molar mass XCl2 = mass / moles XCl2

Molar mass XCl2 = 1.26 grams / 0.01135 moles

Molar mass XCl2 = 111 g/mol

Step 6: Calculate of metal X

Molar mass X = molar mass XCl2 - molar mass Cl2

Molar mass X = 111 - 70.9 = 40.1 g/mol

The metal is calcium (to form CaCl2)

Write the balanced chemical equation for the following reaction. Phases are optional. Solid iron(I) oxide reacts with hydrogen g
Sphinxa [80]

Answer:

Fe_2O_3(s)+3H_2(g)\rightarrow 2Fe(s)+3H_2O(l)

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, when writing chemical reactions from the given names we must make sure we know the proper formula for each reacted and produced species; thus, since solid iron (III) oxide is Fe_2O_3, hydrogen gas is H_2, solid iron is Fe and liquid water is just H_2O, we can write:

Fe_2O_3(s)+H_2(g)\rightarrow Fe(s)+H_2O(l)

However, since different amount of atoms of iron, hydrogen and oxygen are present at each side of the equation, we balance it by adding the following coefficients to each molecule:

Fe_2O_3(s)+3H_2(g)\rightarrow 2Fe(s)+3H_2O(l)

And now it is balanced with two iron atoms, three oxygen atoms and six hydrogen atoms at both reactants and products.

Best regards!
