Answer:

294.87 gm CaCl_2

Explanation:

The computation of the mass of calcium chloride is shown below:

But before that following calculations need to be done

Number of moles of chlorine atom is

= 3.20 × 10^24 ÷ 6.022 × 10^23

= 5.314 moles

As we know that

1 mole CaCl_2 have the 2 moles of chlorine atoms

Now 5.341 mole chloride atoms would be

= 1 ÷ 2 × 5.314

= 2.657 moles

Now

Mass of CaCl_2 = Number of moles × molar mass of CaCl_2

= 2.657 moles × 110.98 g/mol

= 294.87 gm CaCl_2

Explain how boiling points of compounds are used/<br> utilized in the separation process?

Zepler [3.9K]

Answer:Distillation for Boiling Point Determination

Distillation is used to purify a compound by separating it from a non-volatile or less-volatile material. ... The boiling point is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of the liquid phase of a compound equals the external pressure acting on the surface of the liquid.

How many repeat units are required to make a nylon polymer with a formula weight of 15,000 amu?

Y_Kistochka [10]

This problem is giving information about a nylon polymer whose molar mass is 15,000 amu (atomic mass units).

The first subject of matter here, is to recall the monomeric molecular formula of nylon which is C₁₂H₂₂N₂O₂, and the definition of monomer (basic molecule able to react and form a polymer) and polymer (assembling of monomers).

Next, we calculate the molar mass of the monomer of nylon:

$12*12.01+22*1.01+2*14.01+2*16.00=226.31amu$
