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%

An element X combines with oxygen to form a compound of formula XO2. If 24.0 grams of element X combines with exactly 16.0 grams
tensa zangetsu [6.8K]

Answer:

atomic mass of X is 48.0 amu

Explanation:

Let y be the atomic mass of X

Molar mass of O_2 is = 2×16 = 32 g / mol

X + O2 -----> XO_2

According to the equation ,

y g of X reacts with 32 g of O_2

24 g of X reacts with Z g of O_2

Z = ( 32×24) / y

But given that 24.0 g of X exactly reacts with 16.0 g of O_2

So Z = 16.0

⇒ (32×24) / y = 16.0

⇒ y = (32×24) / 16

y= 48.0

So atomic mass of X is 48.0 amu

Which of the following BEST explains why the tectonic plates of Earth move?
RoseWind [281]

Answer:

The plates can be thought of like pieces of a cracked shell that rest on the hot, molten rock of Earth’s mantle and fit snugly against one another. The heat from radioactive processes within the planet’s interior causes the plates to move, sometimes toward and sometimes away from each other.

Do wind up clocks need batteries? -like the non wired ones.
Sphinxa [80]
No, why? Cause if you're winding up the clock it's basically doing what it needs to do. So there's no need for batteries.. I hope my sad sentence make sense :p

In ____________ reactions, certain molecules are broken down; in the process they release energy which is captured when high-ene
Rudik [331]

Answer:

Exergonic ,Endergonic,low concentration area,high

Explanation:

In exergonic reaction,certain molecules are broken down;in the process they release energy which is captured when high energy molecules(such as ATP and NADH) are formed.

                          The breakdown of these molecules can be coupled to thermodynamically unfavorable processes such as Endergonic reactions or pumping og hydrogen ion from low concentration areas to high concentration areas.

Given the balanced equation representing a reaction: 2na(s) + cl2(g) → 2nacl(s) + energy if 46 grams of na and 71 grams of cl2 r
igor_vitrenko [27]
Answer is: 2) 117g.
2Na + Cl₂ → 2NaCl
Step 1: calculate amount of substance of sodium and chlorine.
n(Na) = m(Na)÷M(Na) = 46g ÷ 23 g/mol = 2 mol.
n(Cl₂) = m(Cl₂)÷M(Cl₂) = 71g ÷ 71 g/mol = 1 mol.
Step 2: calculate amount of substance and mass of sodium-chloride.
Because both sodium and chlorine react completely, we can use both n to compare with n of NaCl.
n(Na) : n(NaCl) = 2:2, 2 mol : n(NaCl) = 2:2
n(NaCl) = 2mol, m(NaCl) = 2mol ·5805 g/mol = 117 g.
