Answer:

18.0 g of mercury (11) oxide decomposes to produce 9.0 grams of mercury

Explanation:

Mercury oxide has molar mass of 216.6 g/ mol. It gas a molecular formula of HgO.

The decomposition of mercury oxide is given by the chemical equation below:

2HgO ----> 2Hg + O₂

2 moles of HgO decomposes to produce 1 mole of Hg

2 moles of HgO has a mass of 433.2 g

433.2 g of HgO produces 216.6 g of Hg

18.0 of HgO will produce 18 × 216.6/433.2 g of Hg = 9.0 g of Hg

Therefore, 18.0 g of mercury (11) oxide decomposes to produce 9.0 grams of mercury

A 52.0-mL volume of 0.35 M CH3COOH (Ka=1.8×10−5) is titrated with 0.40 M NaOH. Calculate the pH after the addition of 23.0 mL of
Georgia [21]

NaOH reacts with CH3COOH in 1:1 molar ratio to produce CH3COONa 

NaOH + CH3COOH → CH3COONa + H2O 

Mol CH3COOH in 52.0mL of 0.35M solution = 52.0/1000*0.35 = 0.0182 mol CH3COOH 

Mol NaOH in 19.0mL of 0.40M solution = 19.0/1000*0.40 = 0.0076 mol NaOH 

These will react to produce 0.0076 mol CH3COONa and there will be 0.0182 - 0.0076 = 0.0106 mol CH3COOH remaining in solution unreacted . Total volume of solution = 52.0+19.0 = 71mL or 0.071L 

Molarity of CH3COOH = 0.0106/0.071 = 0.1493M 

CH3COONa = 0.0076 / 0.071 = 0.1070M 

pKa acetic acid = - log Ka = -log 1.8*10^-5 = 4.74. 

pH using Henderson - Hasselbalch equation: 

pH = pKa + log ([salt]/[acid]) 

pH = 4.74 + log ( 0.1070/0.1493) 

pH = 4.74 + log 0.717 

pH = 4.74 + (-0.14) 

pH = 4.60.

Describe a qualitative test for sulfate in alum crystals using ionic reactions of barium chloride (BaCl2)
Lady bird [3.3K]

A qualitative test for sulfate in alum crystals using ionic reactions of barium chloride (BaCl2) is given Ba²⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻ (aq)  →   BaSO₄(s).

<h3>What is qualitative test?</h3>

Qualitative test measures changes in color, melting point, odor, reactivity, radioactivity, boiling point, bubble production, and precipitation of the sample.

<h3>Qualitative test for sulfate in alum crystals </h3>

When an aqueous solution of a barium salt (BaCl₂) is mixed with an aqueous solution containing sulfate, a white precipitate of insoluble BaSO₄ forms according to the net ionic equation given below;

Ba²⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻ (aq)  →   BaSO₄(s)

Thus, a qualitative test for sulfate in alum crystals using ionic reactions of barium chloride (BaCl2) is given Ba²⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻ (aq)  →   BaSO₄(s).
