We will assume that the solvent is water. So, if we have 100 grams of the solution, 19 grams will be sodium hydroxide, while the remaining 81 grams will be water.

The molar weight of sodium hydroxide, NaOH, is 40. The molar weight of water is 18. Finding the moles of each:

NaOH:
19 / 40 = 0.475

Water:
81 / 18 = 4.5

Total moles present:
4.5 + 0.475 = 4.975 moles

The mole fraction of NaOH is:
0.475 / 4.975 = 0.0955

The mole fraction of NaOH is 0.0955

Based on the equation, how many grams of Br2 are required to react completely with 36.2 grams of AlCl3?
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

65.08 g.

Explanation:

  • For the reaction, the balanced equation is:

<em>2AlCl₃ + 3Br₂ → 2AlBr₃ + 3Cl₂,</em>

2.0 mole of AlCl₃ reacts with 3.0 mole of Br₂ to produce 2.0 mole of AlBr₃ and 3.0 mole of Cl₂.

  • Firstly, we need to calculate the no. of moles of 36.2 grams of AlCl₃:

<em>n = mass/molar mass</em> = (36.2 g)/(133.34 g/mol) = <em>0.2715 mol.</em>

<u><em>Using cross multiplication:</em></u>

2.0 mole of AlCl₃ reacts with → 3.0 mole of Br₂, from the stichiometry.

0.2715 mol of AlCl₃ reacts with → ??? mole of Br₂.

∴ The no. of moles of Br₂ reacts completely with 0.2715 mol (36.2 g) of AlCl₃  = (0.2715 mol)(3.0 mole)/(2.0 mole) = 0.4072 mol.

<em>∴ The mass of Br₂ reacts completely with 0.2715 mol (36.2 g) of AlCl₃ = no. of moles of Br₂ x molar mass</em> = (0.4072 mol)(159.808 g/mol ) = <em>65.08 g.</em>

4vir4ik [10]
The correct answer among the choices listed above is option D. The average kinetic energy of water molecules as water freeze <span>decreases as water releases energy to its surroundings. Energy is released as the molecules go into a more condensed phase which is the solid.</span>

zmey [24]
The minerals in hard water react with soap and affect its cleaning capacity. It's still possible to use hard water when washing by using more soap. The additional soap will no longer be affected by the minerals in the water, so they can clean just as effectively, but you'll be wasting more soap this way.
