Answer:

164.3g of NaCl

Explanation:

Based on the chemical equation:

CaCl2 + 2NaOH → 2NaCl + Ca(OH)2

where 1 mole of CaCl2 reacts with 2 moles of NaOH

To solve this question we must convert the mass of CaCl2 to moles. Using the chemical equation we can find the moles of NaCl and its mass:

Moles CaCl2 -Molar mass: 110.98g/mol-

156.0g CaCl₂ * (1mol / 110.98g) = 1.4057 moles CaCl2

Moles NaCl:

1.4057 moles CaCl2 * (2mol NaCl / 1mol CaCl2) = 2.811 moles NaCl

Mass NaCl -Molar mass: 58.44g/mol-

2.811 moles NaCl * (58.44g / mol) = 164.3g of NaCl

What is the number if moles of nitrogen gas which react with 18 g of magnesium to form magnesium nitride compound?(mg=24,N=14)

makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

It is true. a) 0.25 mol

Explanation:

Hello there?

To begin solving this problem, you have to write down the chemical equation and make sure it is well balanced.

The chemical equation is;

3Mg(s) + N2(g) => Mg3N2(s)

1 mole of Mg = 24g

We have 18g of Magnesium (Mg) reacting with Nitrogen gas (N2)

From our equation,

Mole ratio = 3 : 1, (Mg : N2)

1 mol Mg = 24g

x mol Mg = 18g

x mol Mg = (18/24) = 0.75 mol Mg

But mole ratio = 3 : 1 (Mg : N2)

This means that 3 => 0.75 mol Mg

What about ratio 1 of N2?

N2 = (0.75 mol ÷ 3)/1

= 0.25 mol N2

I hope this helps you to understand better. Have a nice studies.

Consider the diagram of the Earth, Sun, and Moon system. Which phenomenon is MOST DIRECTLY caused by the revolution of the Earth

zlopas [31]

It is commonly known that our Galaxy rotates upon the sun because of gravity. The diagrams' arrows sort of describe it. Id suggest Gravity as the answer.

A cylinder with a moving piston expands from an initial volume of 0.250 L against an external pressure of 2.00 atm. The expansio

kondor19780726 [428]

Answer:

The final volume of the cylinder is 1.67 L

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Initial volume = 0.250 L

external pressure = 2.00 atm

Expansion does 288 J of work on the surroundings

Step 2: Definition of reversible work:

Wrev = -P(V2-V1) = -288 J

The gas did work, so V2>V1 (volume expands) and the work has a negative sign.(Wrev<0)

V2 = (-Wrev/P) + V1

⇒ with Wrev = reverse work (in J)

⇒ with P = the external pressure (in atm)

⇒ with V1 = the initial volume

We can see that your pressure is in atm and energy in J

To convert from J to L * atm we should use a convenient conversion unit using the universal gas constants :

R = 8.314472 J/mol *K and R= 0.08206 L*atm/K*mol

V2 =- (-288 J * (0.08206 L*atm/K*mol /8.314 J/mol *K))/2.00 atm + 0.250L

V2 = 1.67 L

The final volume of the cylinder is 1.67 L

Why is Avogadro’s number referred to as a mole? If you could change this terminology, what would you change it to and why?

stepan [7]

The number of particles (molecules, atoms, compounds, etc.) per mole of a substances is known as Avagadro number. It is equal to 6.022×10^23 mol-1 and is expressed as NA.

Number of moles is the amount of a substance that contains as many particles as there are atoms in 12 grams of pure carbon-12. So, 1 mol contains 6.022×10^23 elementary entities of the substance. Since 6.022 x 10^23 is the Avagadro number, one mole is equal to Avagadro number.

One mole of a substance is the ratio of mass of the substance by the molecular mass of the substance. Thus the mass of one mole of a substance is equal to the substance's molecular weight. Thus one mole of a substance is the atomic mass unit of a substance and since one mole is equivalent to the Avagadro number,we can conclude that one Avagadro number is one atomic mass unit of the substance.
