What is the empirical formula for a compound if a sample contains 3.72 g of P and 21.28 g of Cl

fenix001 [56]

M(P)=3.72 g
M(P)=31 g/mol

m(Cl)=21.28 g
M(Cl)=35.5 g/mol

n(P)=m(P)/M(P)
n(P)=3.72/31=0.12 mol

n(Cl)=m(Cl)/M(Cl)
n(Cl)=21.28/35.5=0.60 mol

P : Cl = 0.12 : 0.60 = 1 : 5

PCl₅ - is the empirical formula

The characteristics of two different types of reactions are shown downwards

a_sh-v [17]

Answer:

Valence electrons are involved in Reaction B but not in Reaction A.

Explanation:

The description of reaction A in which protons are lost or gained by the atom of the element is a nuclear reaction. In nuclear reactions, the nucleons which are the protons and neutrons drives the reaction. No valence electrons in the orbiting shells are involved in this kind of reaction. During this type of reaction, an atom changes it identity to that of another.

Reaction B in which no identity change occurs is a chemical reaction. In chemical reactions bonds are formed by the atoms using the valence electrons that orbits round the central nucleus. The atoms remain the same but it chose to attain stability and an inert configuration by losing or gaining electrons.

Can a combination reaction be a redox reaction ?

saul85 [17]

Answer:

Yes A redox reaction can be a combination reaction.

Two elements are mixed in a combination reaction to produce a single product.

Explanation:

Example: water formula

2H2 + O2 → 2H2O

Oxygen is reduced in this reaction when electrons are transferred from hydrogen to oxygen and hydrogen is also oxidized since oxygen from hydrogen accepts electrons. Oxygen is the oxidizing agent and hydrogen is the reducing agent.

2H2 + O2 → 2H2O

If 842 grams of sodium hydroxide reacts with 750.0 grams of aluminum, how many grams of aluminum hydroxide should theoretically

Phantasy [73]

548.55 grams of aluminum hydroxide should theoretically form.

Explanation:

Balanced equation for the reaction:

3 NaOH + Al ⇒ Al(OH)3 +3 Na

DATA GIVEN:

mass of NaOH = 842 grams, atomic mass =39.9 grams/mole

mass of Al = 750 grams, atomic mass = 26.9 grams/mole

aluminum hydroxide theoretical yield = ?

Moles of NaOH reacted

number of moles = $\frac{mass}{atomic mass of 1 mole}$

putting the values in the equation

NaOH = $\frac{842}{39.9}$

= 21.1 MOLES OF NaOH

Al = $\frac{750}{26.9}$

= 27.8 moles

from the equation

from 3 moles of NaOH 1 mole of Al(OH)3 is produced

21.1 moles of NaOH will react to give x moles of Al(OH)3

$\frac{1}{3}$ = $\frac{x}{21.1}$

7.03 moles of Al(OH)3 is formed.

and

1 mole of Al(OH)3 is formed from 1 mole of Al in the reaction

so, 27.8 Moles will react to give give 27.8 moles of Al(OH)3 limiting reagent of the given reaction is NaOH

mass of Al(OH)3 =7.03 x 78 (atomic mass of Al(OH)3)

= 548.55 grams

theoretical yield from the given data is 548.55 grams
