Answer:
Different isotopes of an element generally have the same physical and chemical properties because they have the same numbers of protons and electrons.
The question has missing information, the complete question is:
Cobalt(II) chloride forms several hydrates with the general formula CoCl₂.xH₂O, where x is an integer. If the hydrate is heated, the water can be driven off, leaving pure CoCl₂ behind. Suppose a sample of a certain hydrate is heated until all the water is removed, and it's found that the mass of the sample decreases by 22.0%. Which hydrate is it? That is, what is x?
Answer:
CoCl₂.26H₂O
Explanation:
The molar masses of the compounds that forms the hydrate are:
Co = 59 g/mol
Cl = 35.5 g/mol
H = 1 g/mol
O = 16 g/mol
The molar mass of CoCl₂ is 130 g/mol and of H₂O is 18 g/mol, thus for the hydrate, it will be 130 + 18x g/mol.
Let's suppose 1 mol of the compound. Thus, the mass of the hydrate is: 130 + 18x, and the mass of CoCl₂ will be 130 g. Because the mass decreassed by 22.0% :
0.22*(130 + 18x) = 130
130 + 18x = 590.91
18x = 460.91
x ≅ 26
Thus, the hydrate is CoCl₂.26H₂O
Answer:
23.8g
Explanation :
Convert 2.0M into mol using mol= concentration x volume
2.0M x 0.1L (convert 100mL to L since the units for M is mol/L)
= 0.2 mol
We can now find grams by using the molar mass of KBr
=119.023 g/mol (Found online) webqc.org
but can be be calculated by using the molecular weight of K and Br found on the periodic table
We can now calculate the grams by using grams=mol x molar mass
119.023g/mol x 0.2mol
= 23.8046 g
=23.8g (rounded to 1decimal place)
