Answer:

The law of reciprocal proportions states that if two elements react individually with a given weight of a third element, the ratio of the masses with which they combine with the third element are either the same or a simple multiple of the ratio of the masses with which they combine with each other

The compounds formed includes;

1) Nitric oxide, NO

Nitrogen = 46.66% × 30.01 = 14

Oxygen = 53.34% × 30.01 = 16

2) Water, H₂O

Hydrogen = 11.21% × 18.01528 = 2

Oxygen = 88.79% × 18.01528 ≈ 16

3) Ammonia, NH₃

Hydrogen = 17.78% × 17.031 ≈ 3

Nitrogen = 82.22% × 17.031 ≈ 14

The ratio of nitrogen to oxygen in nitric oxide = 14:16 = 7:8

The ratio of nitrogen to hydrogen in ammonia = 14:3

The ratio in which hydrogen and oxygen combine with nitrogen = 3/16

The ratio of hydrogen and oxygen combine with each other in water = 2/16

Therefore, the ratio with which hydrogen and oxygen combine with nitrogen, is (2/3) times the ratio with which they combine with each other, which verifies the law of reciprocal proportions

Copper reacts with silver nitrate through single replacement.
-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

  • Part a) 0.0104 moles copper(II) nitrate.

  • Part b)

            i) 0.0418 mole Cu

            ii) 0.0209 mol Ag NO₃

Explanation:

<u>1) Balanced chemical reaction (single replacement):</u>

In a single replacement reaction a more acitve metal (Cu) replaces a less active metal (Ag)

  • Cu + 2 Ag NO₃ → Cu (NO₃)₂ + 2 Ag

<u>2) Mole ratio: </u>

  • 1 mole Cu : 2 mole Ag NO₃ : 2 mole Ag

<u />

<u>3) Moles of Ag</u>

  • n = mass in grams / atomic mass
  • atomic mass of Ag: 107.868 g/mol
  • n = 2.25 g / 107.868 g/mol = 0.0209 mol Ag

<u>4) Moles of copper(II) nitrate:</u>

  • Set the proportion using the mole ratio:
  • 2 mole Ag / 1 mole Cu (NO₃)₂ = 0.0209 mole Ag / x
  • Solve: x = 0.0209 / 2 mole Cu (NO₃)₂ =  0.0104 moles Cu(NO₃)₂

That is the answer of part a: 0.0104 moles copper(II) nitrate.

<u>5) Moles of each reactant</u>

i) Cu:

  • Set a proportion using the theoretical mole ratio

        1 mole Cu / 2 mole Ag = x / 0.0209 mol Ag

  • Solve for x: x = 0.0209 / 2 mole Cu = 0.0418 mole Cu

ii) Ag NO₃

  • Set a proportion using the teoretical mole ratio

   

       2 mole Ag NO₃ / 2 mole Ag = x / 0.0209 mole Ag

  • Solve for x: x = 0.0209 mol Ag NO₃

How can you determine the number of shells in an atom of a certain element, based
netineya [11]

Answer:  At some point in your chemistry education, you may have been introduced to the song “The Elements in which Tom Lehrer does a rapid

fire musical rendition of all the elements' names. Like me, you may even have been offered the opportunity to memorize this song for extra credit. If so, it’s possible that you still remember the names of all the elements, which is an impressive feat—not to mention a fun trick to pull out at parties.

An iron has a net charge of 3+. If this job has 8 protons, how many electrons does it have
kati45 [8]

Answer:

5 electrons

Explanation:

When an atom loses are gain the electrons ions are formed.

There are two types of ions.

Anion

Cation

1 = Anion

It is formed when an atom gain the electrons. when atom gain electron negative charge is created on atom. For example.

X + e⁻ → X⁻

2= Cation

It is formed when an atom loses the electrons. when atom lose electron positive charge is created on atom. For example.

X → X⁺ + e⁻

When an atom loses three electrons +3 charge is created. If this atom have 8 protons it means there were 8 electrons too. When it lost three electrons then remaining number of electrons are 5.

X → X³⁺ + 3e⁻

How tungsten conducts electricity
Elis [28]

Answer:

Yes

Explanation:

The virtue that tungsten is metal it means that it does conduct electricity. Tungsten does conduct electricity currents quite well, such as when compared to iron and nickel. It is, however, not a good conductor as compared to other metals though it does get the job done.

Is BH2F a gas or a liquid and what is the boiling point
hram777 [196]
Hey I tried but could not find your answer, but maybe you could try to calculate the average of bpts of the different elements in the compound to find the boiling point. And when you know the bpt, you can find out whether it is a liquid or gas. But after searching a lot, I found it was a solid. Good luck!
