A student attempts to separate 4.656 g of a sand/salt mixture just like you did in this lab. After carrying out the experiment,

she recovers 2.775 g of sand and 0.852 g of salt.a. What was the percent composition of sand in the mixture according to the student's data? b. What was the percent recovery?

Answer:

Explanation:

a ) Total mixture = 4.656 g

Sand recovered = 2.775 g

percent composition of sand in the mixture

= (2.775 g / 4.656 g ) x 100

= 59.6 % .

b )

Total of sand and salt recovered = 2.775 g + .852 g = 3.627 g .

Total mixture = 4.656 g

percent recovery = (3.627 / 4.656 ) x 100

= 77.9 % .

The molar mass of H2O is 18.01 g/mol. The molar mass of O2 is 32.00 g/mol. What mass of H2O, in grams, must react to produce 50.
Annette [7]
This reaction is called the electrolysis of water. The balanced reaction is:
2H2O = 2H2 + O2
We are given the amount of O2 produced from the electrolysis reaction. This will be the starting point of our calculation.

50.00 grams O2 ( 1 mol O2 / 32 grams O2) ( 2 mol H2O / 1 mol O2) ( 18.01 g H2O / 1 mol H2O ) = 56.28 g H2O

<h3>Answer:</h3>

Single displacement reaction

<h3>Explanation:</h3>
  • Single replacement reaction is a type of reaction in which a reactive element displaces a less reactive element from its compound.
  • The reaction given above; Al + H₂SO₄ → Al₂(SO₄)₃ + H₂ is a single replacement reaction.
  • This is because Aluminium takes the place of hydrogen atoms in sulfuric acid to form aluminium sulfate and hydrogen gas.
  • Double replacement reaction is where cations or anions are exchanged between two compounds to form new compounds.
  • For example the reaction; NaCl(aq) + AgNO₃(aq) → NaNO₃(aq) + AgCl(aq) is a double displacement reaction.
