Solutions of mercury (I) nitrate and potassium bromide are mixed

1 answer:

7 0

With that informatio you can:

1) Write the chemical equation
2) Balance the chemical equation
3) State the molar ratios
4) Predict if precipitation occurs.

I will do all four, for you:

1) Chemical equation:

mercury(I) nitrate potassium bromide mercury(I) bromide potassium nitrate
Hg2(NO3)2 + KBr → Hg2Br2 + KNO3

2) Balanced chemical equation

Hg2(NO3)2 + 2KBr → Hg2Br2 + 2KNO3

3) Molar ratios or proportions:

1 mol Hg2(NO3)2 : 2 mol KBr : 1 mol Hg2Br2 : 2 mol KNO3

4) Prediction of precipitation.

You can use the solubility rules or a table of solubilities. I found in a table of solutiblities that mercury(I) bromide is insoluble and potassium bromide is soluble, Then you can predict that the precipitation of mercury(I) bromide will occur.

A sample of xenon gas occupies a volume of 6.80 L at 52.0°C and 1.05 atm. If it is desired to increase the volume of the gas sam

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

207.03°C

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

V1 (initial volume) = 6.80 L

T1 (initial temperature) = 52.0°C = 52 + 273 = 325K

P1 (initial pressure) = 1.05 atm

V2 (final volume) = 7.87 L

P2 (final pressure) = 1.34 atm

T2(final temperature) =?

Using the general gas equation P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2, the final temperature of the gas sample can be obtained as follow:

P1V1/T1 = P2V2/T2

1.05 x 6.8/325 = 1.34 x 7.87/T2

Cross multiply to express in linear form as shown below:

1.05 x 6.8 x T2 = 325 x 1.34 x 7.87

Divide both side by 1.05 x 6.8

T2 = (325 x 1.34 x 7.87) /(1.05 x 6.8)

T2 = 480.03K

Now, let us convert 480.03K to a number in celsius scale. This is illustrated below:

°C = K - 273

°C = 480.03 - 273

°C = 207.03°C

Therefore, the final temperature of the gas will be 207.03°C

Chromium metal is plated onto a car bumper at a current of 10.0 amperes for 100 seconds. The plating bath contains chromium in t

Phoenix [80]

Answer:

0.54g of Cr

Explanation:

Current (I) = 10A

Time (t) = 100s

Molecular mass of Cr = 51.996 amu

Faraday's first law of electrolysis states that

The mass of the substance (m) of a given substance deposited at an electrode is directly proportional to the quantity of electricity or charge (Q) passed

m = nQ

M = mass of the substance

n = electrochemical constant

Q = charge passed through it

Q = IT

Q = (10 * 100) = 1000C

1 moles = molarmass = Faraday's constant (96500C)

Molar mass = Faraday's constant (96500C)

51.996 g = 96500C

How many grams will be liberated with 1000C

51.996g = 96500C

Xg = 1000C

X = (1000 * 51.996) / 96500

X = 51996 / 96500

X = 0.5388g = 0.54 g of Cr will be deposited

Which compound 2-bromo-2-methylpropane or 2-chloro-2-methylpropane?

AURORKA [14]

The 2-bromo-1-chloro-2-methylpropane molecule contains a total of 14 atom(s). There are 4 Carbon atom(s), 8 Hydrogen atom(s), 1 Chlorine atom(s) and 1 Bromine atom(s). A chemical formula of 2-bromo-1-chloro-2-methylpropane can therefore be written as C4H8BrCl. Is it also commonly called as Propane.

Match each gas law with the correct statement.

Serhud [2]

The correct match are as follows:

Boyles Law is about a gas at constant temperature. Therefore, the correct match would be the volume of a gas varies inversely with pressure if the temperature is kept constant.

Charles Law would be that the volume of a gas varies directly with temperature if the pressure is kept constant.

Gay-lussac's law would be that the pressure of a gas varies directly with temperature if the volume is kept constant.
