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.

Imagine that you are outside in the cold. Your nose starts to tingle and hurt. What might you be experiencing?
KATRIN_1 [288]
D. Being cold temperatures can result in a cold nose. With prolonged exposure The body will start to lose heat faster than it can generate it, this is the result of hypothermia.

Which of the following is a possible set of quantum numbers for an electron (n,l,m0,ms) ?
Mashutka [201]

Answer is: (3, 2, 0, -1/2).

The principal quantum number (n) is one of four quantum numbers which are assigned to each electron in an atom to describe that electron's state.

For principal quantum number n=3:  

1) azimuthal quantum number (l) can be l = 0...n-1:  

l = 0, 1, 2.  

The azimuthal quantum number determines its orbital angular momentum and describes the shape of the orbital.  

2) magnetic quantum number (ml) can be ml = -l...+l.  

ml = -2, -1, 0, +1, +2.

Magnetic quantum number specify orientation of electrons in magnetic field and number of electron states (orbitals) in subshells.  

3) the spin quantum number (ms), is the spin of the electron.  

ms = +1/2, -1/2.  

(1, 1, 0, +1/2)  is not correct because orbital quantum number cannot be l = 1 for n = 1.

(2, 1, 2, +1/2)  is not correct because magnetic quantum number cannot be ml = 2 for orbital quantum number l = 1.

(3, -2, 1, -1/2) is not correct because orbital quantum number cannot be l = -2 for principal quantum number n = 3.

describe how the current modern atomic theory and model differs from the model jj Thompson proposed ?
myrzilka [38]
J.J Thompson’s model shows a sphere with electrons that are moving around freely. However, Thompson’s model does not show protons or neutrons. The model that we have today gives a clearer structure showing protons, neutrons, and electrons inside an atom.

A 5.0 L flask contains 0.60 g of 02 at a temperature of 22*C, what is the pressure inside the flask?
Kruka [31]

Answer:

The pressure inside the flask is 0,09 atm

Explanation:

We calculate the number of moles of O2, we convert the Temperature into unit KELVIN and use the formula of the ideal gases to calculate the pressure:

Weight 1 mol of 02= 15,999g x2= 32g

32g---1mol 02

0,60g---x=(0,60gx1mol O2)/32g= 0,019mol O2

T(K)=273+22=295K

PV=nRT

Px5.0l= 0,019mol x 0,082 lxatm/Kxmolx295 K

P=(0,019mol x 0,082 lxatm/Kxmolx295 K)/5.0l

P=0,09atm
