In an experiment, a student was assigned to find the formula of an unknown hydrate that weighed 15.67g. The anhydrate, XCO3 (mol

ar mass = 84.32 g/mol), weighed 7.58 g after all the water was driven off. Determine the moles of water per one mole of anhydrate.

Answer:

5.0 moles of water per one mole of anhydrate

Explanation:

To solve this question we must find the moles of the anhydrate. The difference in mass between the dry and the anhydrate gives the mass of water. Thus, we can find the moles of water and the moles of water per mole of anhydrate:

<em>Moles Anhydrate:</em>

7.58g  * (1mol / 84.32g) = 0.0899 moles XCO3

<em>Moles water:</em>

15.67g - 7.58g = 8.09g * (1mol / 18.01g) = 0.449 moles H2O

Moles of water per mole of anhydrate:

0.449 moles H2O / 0.0899 moles XCO3 =

5.0 moles of water per one mole of anhydrate

Which of the following would have the slowest rate of diffusion at a given temperature
MrMuchimi

Chlorine will have the slowest rate of diffusion because it has the highest   relative molecular mass of 71 followed by O₂ with 32, then Neon 20 then He with 2

The rate of diffusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of its relative molecular mass.
