Explain why, in a balanced chemical equation C + O2 CO2, we know that 1 gram of C will not react exactly with 1 gram of O2.

Chemistry

Pepsi [2]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

See the answer below

Explanation:

From the equation, 1 mole of C requires 1 mole of O2 for a balanced reaction.

<u>1 g of C will not exactly react with 1 g of O2 because the 1 g of each of the reactants contain different amounts of the substance.</u>

The amount (in moles) of a substance is the mass of that substance divided by the molar mass.

<em>Hence, 1 g of C will contain 1/12 moles of the substance while 1 g of O2 will contain 1/32 moles of the substance. </em>

Which anion will form a precipitate with Ca2+
Juli2301 [7.4K]

Answer is: sulfate anion.

Balanced chemical reaction: Ca²⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻(aq) → CaSO₄(s) .

Calcium sulfate (CaSO₄) has very low solubility in water (Ksp for calcium sulfate is 2.36·10⁻⁴).

Calcium cation (Ca²⁺) will form a precipitate with other anions also:

1) with oxalate anion (C₂O₄²⁻) will form CaC₂O₄(s), calcium oxalate.

2) with phosphate anion (PO₄³⁻) will form Ca₃(PO₄)₂(s), calcium phosphate.

3) with hydroxide anion (OH⁻) will form Ca(OH)₂(s), calcium hydroxide.

4) with carbonate (CO₃²⁻) will form CaCO₃(s), calcium carbonate.

• Explain why each of the following pairs is not likely to form an ionic bond.
Olegator [25]

Answer:

A)Chlorine and Bromine:

They are both non metal hence they form a covalent bond due to covalent bonding.

B)Potassium and Helium:

Helium ion has a small cationic radius and distorted by the potassium ion due to polarization.

C)Sodium and Lithium:

Both are metals hence they form a metallic bond since they share electrons to the electron cloud.
