Answer:

54.1 % Ca, 43.2 % O, 2.7% H

Explanation:

Molecular formula for calcium hydroxide is Ca(OH)₂

As we don't have a mass of Ca(OH)₂ to find out the percentage composition, we consider that the question refers to 1 mol of compound.

1 mol of hydroxide weighs 74.08 g

1 mol of hydroxide has 1 mol of Ca, therefore 40.08 g are Ca

2 moles of O therefore 32g are O

2 moles of H therefore 2 g are H

Percentage composition is known as (Mass of element/Total mass) . 100

(40.08 / 74.08) . 100 = 54.1 %

(32 / 74.08) . 100 = 43.2 %

(2 / 74.08) . 100 = 2.7%

Which substance is insoluble and floats in water? A) Ice shavings B) Wood shavings C) Salt crystals D) Sugar crystals

saw5 [17]

Answer: B) Wood Shavings

Reason/Explanation:
Notice what options A, C, and D have on common. Ice, salt and sugar. Those are all dissolvable. Insoluble means un-able to dissolve. It can't dissolve. Wood shavings can't dissolve in water. They will just float. Sugar, salt and ice will all dissolve. Wood shavings won't.

How many grams of hydrogen chloride can be produced from 1.00g of hydrogen and 55.0g of chlorine? what is the limiting reactant?

zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

$m_{HCl}=36.1gHCl$

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given information, it turns out possible for us to calculate the required grams of HCl by firstly identifying the limiting reactant via the moles of each reactant as they are in a 1:1 mole ratio:

$n_{H_2}=1.00gH_2*\frac{1molH_2}{2.02gH_2}=0.500molH_2\\\\ n_{Cl_2}=55.0gCl_2*\frac{1molCl_2}{70.9gCl_2}=0.776molCl_2$

Thus, we infer the hydrogen is the limiting reactant and therefore we use its 1:2 mole ratio with HCl whose molar mass is 36.46 g/mol:

$m_{HCl}=0.500molH_2*\frac{2molHCl}{1molH_2}*\frac{36.46gHCl}{1molHCl}\\\\m_{HCl}=36.1gHCl$

Regards!

Concentration of 10.00 mL of HBr if it takes 5 mL of a 0.253 M LiOH solution to<br> neutralize it?

Sonbull [250]

In a titration, for an acid to neutralize a base, at the equivalence point, there should be an equal number of moles of H+ and OH-.

Moles of OH- can be found by multiplying the concentration of the base by the volume. (You will need to keep in mind the stoichimetric coefficients if the strong base is Ca(OH)₂, Ba(OH)₂, or Sr(OH)₂.

Moles of OH- = moles of H+
(0.253 M) * 0.005 L = 0.01000 L * c
c = 0.1265 M

The concentration of HBr is 0.127 M.
