The atomic number defines the number of protons in an atom.
We are given that the balanced chemical reaction is:
cacl2⋅2h2o(aq) +
k2c2o4⋅h2o(aq) --->
cac2o4⋅h2o(s) +
2kcl(aq) + 2h2o(l)
We known that
the product was oven dried, therefore the mass of 0.333 g pertains only to that
of the substance cac2o4⋅h2o(s). So what we will do first is to convert this
into moles by dividing the mass with the molar mass. The molar mass of cac2o4⋅h2o(s) is
molar mass of cac2o4 plus the
molar mass of h2o.
molar mass cac2o4⋅h2o(s) = 128.10
+ 18 = 146.10 g /mole
moles cac2o4⋅h2o(s) =
0.333 / 146.10 = 2.28 x 10^-3 moles
Looking at
the balanced chemical reaction, the ratio of cac2o4⋅h2o(s) and k2c2o4⋅h2o(aq) is
1:1, therefore:
moles k2c2o4⋅h2o(aq) = 2.28
x 10^-3 moles
Converting
this to mass:
mass k2c2o4⋅h2o(aq) = 2.28
x 10^-3 moles (184.24 g /mol) = 0.419931006 g
Therefore:
The mass of k2c2o4⋅<span>h2o(aq) in
the salt mixture is about 0.420 g</span>
Answer:
Explanation:
In one of the process, energy is built up from scratch, in the other one, energy is liberated for use by an organism or body.
The first process deals with a metabolic reaction in which energy is liberated:
C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂ → 6CO₂ + 6H₂O + energy
In the above process, energy is liberated when glucose combines with oxygen. The waste products are carbon dioxide and water. This process liberates heat energy which can be used to do work.
In the reverse process:
6CO₂ + 6H₂O → C₆H₁₂O₆ + 6O₂
This process stores energy in carbon chains as chemical energy. It is this energy that is released in the first process.
Therefore, we can see that the first process liberates energy and the reverse process stores energy.
