Our balanced equation is Cu + 2AgNO₃ → Cu(NO₃)₂ + 2Ag.

The coefficients of reactants tell us that 1 mole of Cu reacts per 2 moles of AgNO₃. We want to know the mass of Cu that will react with a mass (specifically, 420 g) of AgNO₃. To start, we must convert the mass of AgNO₃ to moles of AgNO₃:

Moles of AgNO₃ = Mass of AgNO₃ ÷ Molar Mass of AgNO₃

Moles of AgNO₃ = 420 g AgNO₃ ÷ 169.88 g AgNO₃/mol AgNO₃

Moles of AgNO₃ = 2.47 moles of AgNO₃.

Since only half as many moles of Cu is consumed in reacting with the AgNO₃, the number of moles of Cu that will react with 2.47 moles of AgNO₃ would be half of 2.47, or 1.24 moles of Cu.

Finally, we can convert the molar quantity of Cu to mass by multiplying the number of moles of Cu by the molar mass of Cu:

Mass of Cu = Moles of Cu × Molar Mass of Cu

Mass of Cu = 1.24 moles Cu × 63.546 g Cu/moles Cu

Mass of Cu = 78.6 g of Cu

So, 78.6 grams of Cu are needed to react with 420 g of AgNO₃.

---

The way to solve the second question is identical to how we solved the first question. The coefficient of Ag is 2, so the molar ratio between the Ag produced and Cu reacted is 2:1. In other words, half as many moles of Ag produced is equivalent to the number of moles of Cu that was consumed in the reaction.

So, as we did with the first question, we first convert the mass of the Ag produced to moles. The molar mass of Ag is 107.8682 g/mol. Dividing 98.5 g of Ag by the molar mass gives us 0.913 moles of Ag produced. The number of moles of Cu that reacted to produce 0.913 moles of Ag would be 0.913/2 = 0.457 moles of Cu.

Lastly, multiplying 0.457 moles of Cu by the molar mass of Cu, we obtain the mass of Cu (in grams) that reacted: 0.457 × 63.546 = 29.0 g of Cu.

So, 29.0 grams of Cu reacted to produce 98.5 grams of Ag.

Note: I have provided the answers for both questions to three significant figures; while 420 technically has only two significant figures, it would seem consistent to treat it as having three since 98.5 has three digits and three significant figures.

What is the coded properties of liquid solid and gas​
Sophie [7]

Gas :

A state of matter that has no definite shape as well as no definite volume is called gas: it occupied all the space container which it is kept.

Liquid :

A state of matter that has a definite volume but no definite shape is called liquid. it occupies or attains the shape of the container in which it is kept.

Solid:

A state of matter that has both definite shape and volume is called solid.

Liquids are less common than solids, gases, and plasmas. The reason is that the liquid state of any substance can exist only within a relatively narrow range of temperature and pressure.

the same substance may exist in three states. for example, water in the form of ice is solid; in the form of steam is gas, while a usual form of water is liquid.

it is the inter-molecular distances or spaces between the molecules, which makes difference among the three states. in solids, the molecules are closely packed with one another and have minimum inter-molecular distance. in gases, the molecules are free from one another and have very large inter-molecular distance. in liquids the situation is intermediate. they have large inter-molecular distance as compared to solids but much less than gases.
