So I saw this question: If 28.0 grams of Pb(NO3)2 react with 18.0 grams of NaI, what mass of PbI2 can be produced? Pb(NO3)2 + Na

I → PbI2 + NaNO3
I saw an answer that question but I need one part explained. The answer balanced the equation, but I do not know how they did that or why. They added a 2 to both sides and I do not know where it came from or why it made it balanced.

mass of PbI₂ = 27.6606 g

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Pb(NO₃)₂ + NaI → PbI₂ + NaNO₃

28.0 grams of Pb(NO₃)₂ react with 18.0 grams of NaI

Required

mass of PbI₂

Solution

Balanced equation

Pb(NO₃)₂ + 2NaI → PbI₂ + 2NaNO₃

The principle of a balanced reaction is the number of atoms in the reactants = the number of atoms in the product

mol Pb(NO₃)₂ :

= 28 : 331,2 g/mol

= 0.0845

mol NaI :

= 18 : 149,89 g/mol

= 0.12

Limiting reactant : mol : coefficient

Pb(NO₃)₂ : 0.0845 : 1 = 0.0845

NaI : 0.12 : 2 = 0.06

NaI limiting reactant (smaller ratio)

mol PbI₂ based on NaI

= 1/2 x 0.12 = 0.06

Mass PbI₂ :

= 0.06 x 461,01 g/mol

= 27.6606 g

Hafnium has six naturally occurring isotopes: 0.16% of 174Hf, with an atomic weight of 173.940 amu; 5.26% of 176Hf, with an atom
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

177.277amu

Explanation:

the total occuring isotopes for Hafnium is =6.

First isotope had an atomic weight of 173.940amu

Second isotope =175.941amu

Third isotope =176.943amu

Fourth isotope=177.944amu

Fifth isotope. =178.946amu

sixth isotope .179.947amu

<em>Avera</em><em>ge</em><em> </em><em>ato</em><em>mic</em><em> </em><em>wei</em><em>ght</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>Haf</em><em>nium</em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>sum</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>all</em><em> </em><em>the </em><em>atomi</em><em>c</em><em> </em><em>weights</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>iso</em><em>topes</em><em>/</em><em> </em><em>Tota</em><em>l</em><em> </em><em>occu</em><em>ring</em><em> </em><em>isotopes</em>

Thus, 173.940amu+175.941amu+176.943amu+177.944amu+178.946amu+179.947amu.= 1063.661amu

Average atomic weight= 1063.661amu /6 = 177.2768333amu

= 177.277amu to 3 decimal places.

Which bond is most polar c-o h-o n-o s-o
scZoUnD [109]

Answer:

Option 4 with o-h in the most polar bond, since the two atoms in the bond have the greatest difference in electronegativity.  This is assuming there are no other factors in other atoms bound to either of the elements in the bond.
