You weigh out 0.1183 g of a complex salt to analyze for the percentage of cyanide ion in your complex salt. After dissolving the

complex salt in solution, you determine that it takes 10.02 mL of a 0.08035 M potassium permanganate solution to react with all of the cyanide ion in your complex salt. Using the balanced chemical equation provided, determine the mass percentage of the cyanide ion in your complex salt. (Remember: the mole ratio of MnO4 - to KMnO4 is 1:1)

Answer:

25.35%

Explanation:

Again let me restate the the equation of the reaction;

H2O (ℓ) + 2 MnO4 - (aq) + 3 CN- (aq) → 2 MnO2 (s) + 3 CNO- (aq) + 2 OH- (aq)

Amount of potassium permanganate  reacted = 10.2/1000 * 0.08035 = 8.1957 * 10^-4 moles

If 2 moles of MnO4 - reacts with 3 moles of CN-

8.1957 * 10^-4 moles of MnO4 - reacts with 8.1957 * 10^-4 * 3/2

= 1.229 * 10^-3 moles of CN-

Mass of CN- reacted = 1.229 * 10^-3 moles of CN- * 26.02 g/mol

= 0.03 g

Hence, percentage of the cyanide = 0.03 g/0.1183 g * 100

= 25.35%

g Gaseous ethane will react with gaseous oxygen to produce gaseous carbon dioxide and gaseous water . Suppose 2.71 g of ethane i
Kamila [148]

Answer:

6.05g

Explanation:

The reaction is given as;

Ethane + oxygen --> Carbon dioxide + water

2C2H6 + 7O2 --> 4CO2 + 6H2O

From the reaction above;

2 mol of ethane reacts with 7 mol of oxygen.

To proceed, we have to obtain the limiting reagent,

2,71g of ethane;

Number of moles = Mass / molar mass = 2.71 / 30 = 0.0903 mol

3.8g of oxygen;

Number of moles = Mass / molar mass = 3.8 / 16 = 0.2375 mol

If 0.0903 moles of ethane was used, it would require;

2 = 7

0.0903 = x

x = 0.31605 mol of oxygen needed

This means that oxygen is our limiting reagent.

From the reaction,

7 mol of oxygen yields 4 mol of carbon dioxide

0.2375 yields x?

7 = 4

0.2375 = x

x = 0.1357

Mass = Number of moles * Molar mass = 0.1357 * 44 = 6.05g

If you have a pH of 3.35, what is the hydrogen ion concentration of the solution?
melamori03 [73]

Answer: 4.46 x 10^-4M

Explanation:

The pH of a solution is the concentration of hydrogen ion concentration in the solution. Mathematically, it is expressed as pH = -log(H+), where H+ is the concentration of hydrogen ion

On the pH scale, readings are from 1 to 14.

- pH values less than 7 are regarded as acidic. So, the solution with pH 3.35 is said to be acidic, and will produce hydrogen ions.

3.35 = -log(H+)

(H+) = Antilog (-3.35)

(H+) = 0.000446M

Place (H+) in standard form

(H+) = 4.46 x 10^-4M

Thus, the concentration of hydrogen ion in the solution with pH 3.35 is 4.46 x 10^-4M
