There are many minerals which contain silver. A 2.00 g sample of one of these, stephanite, is placed in water and all of its sil

ver ions are released. It takes 2.89 mL of 2.19 M magnesium chloride to precipitate all the silver ions just released as the solid silver chloride. Calculate the mass percent of silver in stephanite to the correct number of significant figures. Assume that stephanite contains no chloride ions.

Answer:

68.3%

Explanation:

First, let us look at the equation of reaction involving silver and magnesium chloride:

2Ag + MgCl2 ----> 2AgCl + Mg

1 mole of MgCl2 is required to precipitate 2 moles of Ag completely from the solution. That is a ratio of 1 to 2.

Now, mole of MgCl2 used to precipitate all the Ag

             = molarity x volume

                      = 2.19 M x 2.89/1000

                         = 0.0063291 mole

Since 1 mole of MgCl2 would always require 2 moles of Ag, 0.0063291 mole will therefore require:

      0.0063291 x 2 = 0.0126 mole of Ag

This means that 0.0126 mole of Ag is present in stephanie.

Mass of silver in stephanie = mole x molar mass

                              = 0.0126 x 107.8682

                                      = 1.365 g

Thus, 1.365 g of silver is present in 2.00 g sample of stephanie.

Mass percent of silver in stephanie = 1.365/2.00 x 100

                                         = 68.25% = 68.3% to the correct number of significant figure.

The graph below shows the volume and the mass of four different substances at STP.
sladkih [1.3K]
The formula of density is mass / volume

This means that
- high mass, low volume = high density
- high mass, high volume = so-so
- low mass, high volume = low density

From the graph shown, 
D has the lowest density because it has low mass yet high volume.

Zinc has a specific heat capacity of 0.390 J/goC. What is its molar heat capacity? Enter your answer numerically to three signif
ch4aika [34]

Answer:

The answer to your questions is  Cm = 25.5 J/mol°C  

Explanation:

Data

Heat capacity = 0.390 J/g°C

Molar heat capacity = ?

Process

1.- Look for the atomic number of Zinc

     Z = 65.4 g/mol

2.- Convert heat capacity to molar heat capacity

       (0.390 J/g°C)(65.4 g/mol)

- Simplify and result

   Cm = 25.5 J/mol°C

klasskru [66]

Answer:

Well you can not serve it because it is a slow cooker it cooks slow and the refrigerator uses power.Stove tops use power too, I wouldn't feed it to the dog because it whatever you made could possibly make the dog sick and throwing it away is a waste of money. Out of all of those explanations choose the best one. Which ever one you pick whether right or wrong, think about it.

Select the molecule where free rotation around one or more bonds is not possible. Group of answer choices N2H4 C2Cl4 NH3 C2H6 CC
Alexandra [31]

Answer:

C₂Cl₄

Explanation:

To know if free rotation around a bond in a compound is possible, we need to see the structure of the compound (picture in attachment).

In single bonds, which are formed by σ bonds, the atoms are not fixed in a single position, and free rotation is permitted.

Double and triple bonds are formed by a σ bond and one or two π bonds, respectively. These bonds do not allow rotation, since it is not possible to twist the ends without breaking the π bond.

The chloroethylene (C₂Cl₄) has two carbons with an sp2-sp2 hybridization, they are bonded together by a double bond. <u>Free rotation on this bond is not possible, because six atoms, including the carbon atoms, doubly bonded and the four chlorine atoms bonded to them, must be on the same plane. </u>
