You are given a 1.55 g mixture of calcium nitrate and calcium chloride. You dissolve this mixture in 20 mL of water and add an e

xcess of 0.300 M silver nitrate. You collect and dry the resulting precipitate and determine it has a mass of 0.535 grams. Calculate the percent calcium chloride in the original mixture.

Answer:

13.4 (w/w)% of CaCl₂ in the mixture

Explanation:

All the Cl⁻ that comes from CaCl₂ (Calcium chloride) will be precipitate in presence of AgNO₃ as AgCl.

To solve this problem we must find the moles of AgCl = Moles of Cl⁻. As 2 moles of Cl⁻ are in 1 mole of CaCl₂ we can find the moles of CaCl₂ and its mass in order to find mass percent of calcium chloride in the original mixture.

<em>Moles AgCl - Molar mass: 143.32g/mol -:</em>

0.535g * (1mol / 143.32g) = 3.733x10⁻³ moles AgCl = Moles Cl⁻

<em>Moles CaCl₂:</em>

3.733x10⁻³ moles Cl⁻ * (1mol CaCl₂ / 2mol Cl⁻) = 1.866x10⁻³ moles CaCl₂

<em>Mass CaCl₂ -Molar mass: 110.98g/mol-:</em>

1.866x10⁻³ moles CaCl₂ * (110.98g/mol) = 0.207g of CaCl₂ in the mixture

That means mass percent of CaCl₂ is:

0.207g CaCl₂ / 1.55g * 100 =

<h3>13.4 (w/w)% of CaCl₂ in the mixture</h3>

Some type of path is necessary to join both half-cells in order for electron flow to occur.
klemol [59]

The given statement, some type of path is necessary to join both half-cells in order for electron flow to occur, is true.

Explanation:

Flow of electrons is possible with the help of a conducting medium like metal wire.

A laboratory device which helps in completion of oxidation and reduction-half reactions of a galvanic or voltaic cell is known as salt bridge. Basically, this salt bridge helps in the flow of electrons from anode to cathode and vice-versa.

If salt bridge is not present in an electrochemical cell, the electron neutrality will not be maintained and hence, flow of electrons will not take place.

Thus, we can conclude that the statement some type of path is necessary to join both half-cells in order for electron flow to occur, is true.
