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>

Which statements are true regarding redox reactions? (Note that in redox reactions, the molecule that "causes" another to gain o
Dvinal [7]

Answer:A, C, D, E, F

Explanation:

A. True: Oxidizing agents are electron acceptors. They accept electrons and the get reduced. This means their oxidation number reduces

B. False: Reducing agents do not accept H+ ions. Reducing agents remove oxygen from another substance or give hydrogen to it.

C. True: oxidizing agents oxidizes other molecules but they accept electrons and get reduced themselves. If a molecule accepts electrons it has been reduced.

D True: Redox reactions MAY and may not involve the transfer of hydrogen ions depending on the reactants (H+). But redox in terms of acid and base means the donating and receiving of protons(H+)

E. True: A molecule that has gained H atoms is said to be reduced. Oxidizing agents are always the proton acceptor.

F. True: Oxidizing agents May and may not accept H+. In terms of acid and base oxidizing agents accept protons(H+)
