CaCl2 and KCl are both salts which dissociate in water
when dissolved. Assuming that the dissolution of the two salts are 100 percent,
the half reactions are:
<span>CaCl2 ---> Ca2+ + 2 Cl-</span>
KCl ---> K+ + Cl-
Therefore the total Cl- ion concentration would be coming
from both salts. First, we calculate the Cl- from each salt by using stoichiometric
ratio:
Cl- from CaCl2 = (0.2 moles CaCl2/ L) (0.25 L) (2 moles
Cl / 1 mole CaCl2)
Cl- from CaCl2 = 0.1 moles
Cl- from KCl = (0.4 moles KCl/ L) (0.25 L) (1 mole Cl / 1
mole KCl)
Cl- from KCl = 0.1 moles
Therefore the final concentration of Cl- in the solution
mixture is:
Cl- = (0.1 moles + 0.1 moles) / (0.25 L + 0.25 L)
Cl- = 0.2 moles / 0.5 moles
<span>Cl- = 0.4 moles (ANSWER)</span>
Answer: yes they are
Explanation:
because its so hot and the heat just stays at the bottom
One is a mixture and the other is a compound
