Papessa [141]3 years ago

The answer is B. A good way determine this is how far right the element is on the periodic table. The further right the element is, the more electronegative it is meaning it is more willing to accept an electron. This can be explained using the valence electrons and how many need to be added or removed to complete the octet. The further right you are, the easier it is for the element to just gain a few electrons instead of loose a bunch. Noble gases are the exception to this since they don't normally react though.

Calculate how many grams of the product form when 16.7 g of calcium metal completely reacts. Assume that there is more than enou
swat32

39.96 g product form when 16.7 g of calcium metal completely reacts.

<h3>What is the stoichiometric process?</h3>

Stoichiometry is a section of chemistry that involves using relationships between reactants and/or products in a chemical reaction to determine desired quantitative data.

Equation:

Ca(s) + Cl_2(g) → CaCl_2(s)

In this case, for the undergoing reaction, we can compute the grams of the formed calcium chloride by noticing the 1:1 molar ratio between calcium and it (stoichiometric coefficients) and using their molar mass of 40 g/mol and 111 g/mol by using the following stoichiometric process:

m_{ca_C_l_2}= 16.7 g Ca x \frac{1 mol \;of \;Ca}{40g Ca} x \frac{1 mol \;of \;CaCl_2}{1 mol \;Ca} x \frac{111g of \;CaCl_2}{1 mol \;CaCl_2}

m_{ca_C_l_2} = 39.96 g

Hence, 39.96 g product form when 16.7 g of calcium metal completely reacts.

Jose’s lab instructor gives him a solution of sodium phosphate that is buffered to a pH of 4. Because of an error that he made w
RoseWind [281]
His measurements are precise since his pH values are close to each other in a way that it was repeated in all measurements. On the contrary to accuracy, it is the closeness to the actual pH value he should have achieved. Therefore, Jose's results are precise but not accurate since his value is not close to the actual value of pH 4.

How many particles are in 23 g of H 2 O?
Sedaia [141]
1 mole of any substance contains 6.022 × 1023 particles.

⚛ 6.022 × 1023 is known as the Avogadro Number or Avogadro Constant and is given the symbol NA

N = n × NA

· N = number of particles in the substance

· n = amount of substance in moles (mol)

· NA = Avogardro Number = 6.022 × 10^23 particles mol-1


For H2O we have:

2 H at 1.0 each = 2.0 amu
1 O at 16.0 each = 16.0 amu
Total for H2O = 18.0 amu, or grams/mole

It takes 18 grams of H2O to obtain 1 mole, or 6.02 x 1023 molecules of water. Think about that before we answer the question. We have 25.0 grams of water, so we have more than one mole of water molecules. To find the exact number, divide the available mass (25.0g) by the molar mass (18.0g/mole). Watch how the units work out. The grams cancel and moles moves to the top, leaving moles of water. [g/(g/mole) = moles].

Here we have 25.0 g/(18.0g/mole) = 1.39 moles water (3 sig figs).

Multiply 1.39 moles times the definition of a mole to arrive at the actual number of water molecules:

1.39 (moles water) * 6.02 x 1023 molecules water/(mole water) = 8.36 x 1023 molecules water.

That's slightly above Avogadro's number, which is what we expected. Keeping the units in the calculations is annoying, I know, but it helps guide the operations and if you wind up with the unit desired, there is a good chance you've done the problem correctly.

N = n × (6.022 × 10^23)


1 grams H2O is equal to 0.055508435061792 mol.

Then 23 g of H2O is 1.2767 mol


To calculate the number of particles, N, in a substance:

N = n × NA

N = 1.2767 × (6.022 × 10^23)

N= 176.26

N=
