A laboratory technician combined sodium hydroxide with excess iron(II) nitrate. A reaction took place according to this chemical

equation: 2NaOH + Fe(NO3)2 → NaNO3 + Fe(OH)2.
The reaction produced 3.70 grams of iron(II) hydroxide.

Assuming the reaction came to completion, what was the initial mass of sodium hydroxide? Use the periodic table.

A. 1.6 g
B. 2.0 g
C. 3.3 g
D. 4.0 g

 The initial  mass  of sodium hydroxide  is  3.3 g (answer C)

 <u><em>calculation</em></u>

Step 1 : find the  moles of iron (ii) hydroxide (  Fe(OH)₂

moles =  mass÷  molar mass

from periodic table the  molar mass of Fe(OH)₂  = 56 + [16 +1]2  = 90 g/mol

moles  is therefore = 3.70 g÷ 90 g/mol = 0.041 moles

Step 2:  use the mole ratio to  calculate the moles of  sodium hydroxide (NaOH)

   from given equation  NaOH : Fe(OH)₂    is 2 :1

therefore the moles of NaOH = 0.041 x 2 = 0.082 moles

Step 3: find  mass of NaOH

mass = moles x molar mass

from the periodic table the  molar mass of NaOH = 23 +16 +1  = 40 g/mol

mass  = 0.082  moles x 40 g/mol = 3.3 g ( answer C)

Calculate the molarity of a solution consisting of 25.0 g of KOH in 3.00 L of solution.
melomori [17]

Answer:

0.15M

Explanation:

The equation for molarity is M= n/L. Where "M" is Molarity, "n" is the number of moles of solute, and "L" is the total liters in solution.

You need to calculate the number of moles from the given grams. The molar mass of KOH is (39.098+ 16 +1.008)= 56.106g. To calculate the mols of KOH, \frac{25.0g}{1} × \frac{1 mol}{56.106g} = 0.44558... mol, you see that the grams unit cancel out leaving you with mol as the unit.

The volume is given in L already so no need to do any conversion. M= \frac{0.4558mol}{3.00L} = 0.1485M ≈ 0.15M

Which characteristic is a property of water?
Rus_ich [418]

Answer: The correct answer is option (A).

Explanation:

Polar molecules are molecules in which formation of partial charges takes place due to which dipole moment gets created in a molecule. Molecules with polar bonds that s bond with partly ionic character. And water is of the example of polar molecule.

Electronegative oxygen atom in water molecule attracts the electron bond pair towards itself which generates partial negative charge on oxygen atom and partial positive charge on both hydrogen atoms.

Where as water has higher value surface tension due to strong intermolecular association of the water molecule due to presence of hydrogen bonding.And it is more denser is liquid state than in its solid state.

Hence,the correct answer is option (A).

Given the chemical formulas of the following compounds, name each compound and state the rules you used to determine each name.
Svetlanka [38]
When naming an ionic compound, write the name of the cation, which is the metal first. Then, write the name of the anion, which is the nonmetal. However, you remove the last 2-3 letters and replace suffixes. 

1. RbF --> Rubidium Fluoride
Change fluorine to fluoride
2. CuO --> Copper (II) Oxide
Change oxygen to oxide. Oxide has a charge of -2. Since no subscripts are written, it means they have the same opposite charge. So, we use Copper (II).

NH₄ is ammonia, but we change it to ammonium for polyatomic ions.
