How many equivalents are in 0.60 mole of Mg2+

1 answer:

5 0

Equivalents express the combining power of an element for example what mass of an element can combine with or displace one gram of hydrogen or eight grams of oxygen.

Since Mg is divalent, one gram of Mg2+ can combine with 2 grams of hydrogen

Therefore, 0.6 mole of Mg2+ can combine with 0.6 x 2 = 1.2 moles of hydrogen

Hence there are 1.2 equivalents in 0.60 mole of Mg2+

2k+Cl2=2KCI how many grams of KCl is produced from 8.50 g of K and excess Cl2

ZanzabumX [31]

Answer:

Mass = 16.4 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of K = 8.50 g

Mass of KCl produced = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2K + Cl₂ → 2KCl

Number of moles of K:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 8.50 g/ 39 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.22 mol

Now we will compare the moles of potassium and potassium chloride.

K : KCl

2 : 2

0.22 : 0.22

Mass of KCl:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.22 mol × 74.55 g/mol

Mass = 16.4 g

3.5g of a Certain compound X, known to be made of carbon, hydrogen, and perhaps oxygen, and to have a molecular molar mass of 15

shutvik [7]

Answer:

C₅H₁₀O₅

Explanation:

1. Calculate the mass of each element in 2.78 mg of X.

(a) Mass of C

$\text{Mass of C} = \text{5.13 g CO}_{2}\times \dfrac{\text{12.01 g C}}{\text{44.01 g }\text{CO}_{2}}= \text{1.400 g C}$

(b) Mass of H

$\text{Mass of H} = \text{2.10 g H$_{2}$O}\times \dfrac{\text{2.016 g H}}{\text{18.02 g H$_{2}$O}} = \text{0.2349 g H}$

(c) Mass of O

Mass of O = 3.5 - 1.400 - 0.2349 = 1.87 g

2. Calculate the moles of each element

$\text{Moles of C = 1400 mg C}\times\dfrac{\text{1 mmol C}}{\text{12.01 mg C }} = \text{116.6 mmol C}\\\\\text{Moles of H = 234.9 mg H} \times \dfrac{\text{1 mmol H}}{\text{1.008 mg H}} = \text{233.1 mmol H}\\\\\text{Moles of O = 1870 mg O} \times \dfrac{\text{1 mmol O}}{\text{16.00 mg O}} = \text{116 mmol O}$

3. Calculate the molar ratios

Divide all moles by the smallest number of moles.

$\text{C: } \dfrac{116.6}{116.6}= 1\\\\\text{H: } \dfrac{233.1}{116.6} = 1.999\\\\\text{O: } \dfrac{116}{116.6} = 1.00$

4. Round the ratios to the nearest integer

C:H:O = 1:2:1

5. Write the empirical formula

The empirical formula is CH₂O.

6. Calculate the molecular formula.

EF Mass = (12.01 + 2.016 + 16.00) u = 30.03 u

The molecular formula is an integral multiple of the empirical formula.

MF = (EF)ₙ

$n = \dfrac{\text{MF Mass}}{\text{EF Mass }} = \dfrac{\text{150 u}}{\text{30.03 u}} = 5.00 \approx 5$

MF = (CH₂O)₅ = C₅H₁₀O₅

The molecular formula of X is C₅H₁₀O₅.
