Answer:
EVAPORATES IN THE PROCESS OF TRANSPIRATION
Explanation:
Plants takes in water from the soul via it's root system. Small amount of the water are used for growth and metabolism of the plants. Some are used in the process of photosynthesis. The bulk of the remaining are lost through transpiration. This takes place in the stomata of the plants. The stomata are numerous on the leaf surfaces and are guarded by cells which allow for opening and closing of the stomata. Transpiration helps the plants to remove CO2 produced by photosynthesis, cools the plant and also changes osmotic pressure of the plant which allows for the flow of nutrients and water from the root to the leaves, flowers, fruits.
Answer:
a) 7.0.
b) Nickel sulfate hepta hydrate.
c) 280.83 g/mol.
d) 44.9%.
Explanation:
<u><em>a) What is the formula of the hydrate?</em></u>
The mass of the hydrated sample (NiSO₄.xH₂O) = 5.0 g,
The mass of the anhydrous salt (NiSO₄) = 2.755 g,
The mass of water = 5.0 g - 2.755 g = 2.245 g.
∴ no. of moles of water = mass/molar mass = (2.245 g)/(18.0 g/mol) = 0.1247 mol.
∴ no. of moles of anhydrous salt (NiSO₄) = mass/molar mass = (2.755 g)/(154.75 g/mol) = 0.0178 mol.
∴ water of crystallization in the sample (x) = no. of moles of water/no. of moles of anhydrous salt (NiSO₄) = (0.1247 mol)/(0.0178 mol) = 7.0.
<u><em>b) What is the full chemical name for the hydrate?</em></u>
The name of the salt (NiSO₄.7H₂O) is Nickel sulfate hepta hydrate.
<u><em>c) What is the molar mass of the hydrate? </em></u>
(NiSO₄.7H₂O)
The molar mass = molar mass of NiSO₄ + 7(molar mass of H₂O) = (154.75 g/mol) + 7(18.0 g/mol) = 280.83 g/mol.
<em><u>d) What is the mass % of water in the hydrate?</u></em>
The mass % of water = (mass of water)/(mass of hydrated sample) x 100 = (2.245 g)/(5.0 g) x 100 = 44.9%.
Answer:
- <em>The mystery substance is</em> <u>C. Bromine (Br) </u>
Explanation:
<em>Argon (Ar) </em>is a noble gas. Whose freezing point is -189 °C (very low), thus it cannot be the frozen substance. Also, it is not reactive, thus is would have not reacted with iron. Hence, argon is not the mystery substance.
<em>Scandium (Sc) </em>is a metal from group 3 of the periodic table, thus is will not react with iron. Thus, scandium is not the mystery substance.
Both <em>bromine</em> and <em>iodine</em> are halogens (group 17 of the periodic table).
The freezing point of bromine is −7.2 °C, and the freezing point of iodine is 113.7 °C. Thus, both could be solids (frozen) in the lab.
The reactivity of the halogens decrease from top to bottom inside the group. Bromine is above iodine. Then bromine is more reactive than iodine.
Bromine is reactive enough to react with iron. Iodine is not reactive enough to react with iron.
You can find in the internet that bromine vapour over hot iron reacts producing iron(III) bromide. Also, that bromine vapors are red-brown.
Therefore, <em>the mystery substance is bromine (Br).</em>
