Find the mass of calcium oxide produced from the thermal decomposition of 50 g of calcium carbonate.

Answer:

28 g

Explanation:

The chemical equation of the reaction is given below:

CaCO₃ (s) ⇒ CaO (s) + O₂ (g)

From the chemical equation, 1 mole of CaCO₃ produces 1 mole of CaO.

So, we find the number of moles,n of  CaCO₃ in 50 g from

n = m/M where n = number of moles of  CaCO₃, m = mass of CaCO₃ and M = molar mass of CaCO₃ = 40 g/mol + 12 g/mol + 3 × 16 g/mol = 52 g/mol + 48 g/mol = 100 g/mol

So, n = m/M

= 50 g/100 g/mol

= 0.5 mol

Since From the chemical equation, 1 mole of CaCO₃ produces 1 mole of CaO, then 0.5 × 1 mole of CaCO₃ produces 0.5 × 1 mole of CaO, which is 0.5 mole of CaCO₃ produces 0.5 mole of CaO.

So, we have 0.5 mol of CaO.

We find the mass of CaO from

n =m'/M' where n = number of moles of CaO = 0.5, m' = mass of CaO and M' = molar mass of CaO = 40 g/mol + 16 g/mol = 56 g/mol

So, m' = nM'

= 0.5 mol × 56 g/mol

= 28 g

What is the ph of a 0.45 m solution of aniline (c6h5nh2)? (pkb  9.40)?
mote1985 [20]

Answer is: pH of aniline is 9.13.<span>
Chemical reaction: C</span>₆H₅NH₂(aq)+ H₂O(l) ⇌ C₆H₅NH₃⁺(aq) + OH⁻(aq).

pKb(C₆H₅NH₂) = 9.40.

Kb(C₆H₅NH₂) = 10∧(-9.4) = 4·10⁻¹⁰.

c₀(C₆H₅NH₂) = 0.45 M.

c(C₆H₅NH₃⁺) = c(OH⁻) = x.

c(C₆H₅NH₂) = 0.45 M - x.

Kb = c(C₆H₅NH₃⁺) · c(OH⁻) / c(C₆H₅NH₂).

4·10⁻¹⁰ = x² /  (0.45 M - x). 

Solve quadratic equation: x = c(OH⁻) = 0.0000134 M.

pOH = -log(0.0000134 M.) = 4.87.

pH = 14 - 4.87 = 9.13.

A mixture of two compounds, A and B, was separated by extraction. After the compounds were dried, their masses were found to be:
Arlecino [84]

Answer:

The percent recovery from re crystallization for both compounds A and B is 69.745 and 81.44 % respectively.

Explanation:

Mass of compound A in a mixture  = 119 mg

Mass of compound A after re-crystallization = 83 mg

Percent recovery from re-crystallization :

\frac{\text{Mass after re-crystallization}}{\text{Mass before re-crystallization}}\times 100

Percent recovery of compound A:

\frac{83 mg}{119 mg}\times 100=69.74\%

Mass of compound B in a mixture  = 97 mg

Mass of compound B after re-crystallization = 79 mg

Percent recovery of compound B:

\frac{79 mg}{97 mg}\times 100=81.44\%

What is a positive ion?
BaLLatris [955]

Answer:

If the atom has more electrons than protons, it is a negative ion or ANION. If it has more protons than electrons, it is a positive ion.

Explanation:

Positive ions are typically metals or act like metals. Many common materials contain these ions. Mercury is found in thermometers, for instance, and aluminum is a metal that is found in a surprising amount of things.
