Hello! Let me try to answer this :)
Thanks and please correct if there are any mistakes ^ ^
<h3>Answer:</h3>
162.43 g of FeCl₂
<h3>
Explanation:</h3>
Step 1: Calculate mass of Fe;
As,
Density = Mass ÷ Volume
Or,
Mass = Density × Volume
Where Volume is the volume of water displaced = 10.4 mL
Putting values,
Mass = 7.86 g.mL⁻¹ × 10.4 mL
Mass = 81.744 g of Fe
Step 2: Calculate amount of FeCl₂;
The balance chemical equation is as follow,
Fe + 2 HCl → FeCl₂ + H₂ ↑
According to this equation,
55.85 g (1 mol) Fe produced = 110.98 g (1 mol) of FeCl₂
So,
81.744 g Fe will produce = X g of FeCl₂
Solving for X,
X = (81.744 g × 110.98 g) ÷ 55.85 g
X = 162.43 g of FeCl₂
Chemical reactions are basically divided into two major classes depending on whether the reaction lose energy or gain energy from the environment during the course of the reaction. The two classes of reaction are exothermic and endothermic reaction.
An exothermic reaction is a type of reaction in which the reaction system lose energy to the environment and thus, the energy content of the reactants is more than that of the product formed. Because of this, the enthapyl change of an exothermic reaction is always negative.
An endothermic reaction is a type of reaction in which the reaction system absorb energy from the environment. Thus, the energy contents of the products is always higher than that of the reactants and the enthapyl change of the reaction is always positive. During the course of the reaction, the reaction container is usually cold to the touch because energy is been absorbed from the environment.
1) List the reactants: sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO₃) and citric acid (H₃C₆H₅O₇).
Reactants undergo change during a chemical reaction.
2) List the products: water (H₂O), carbon dioxide (CO₂) and sodium citrate (Na₃C₆H₅O₇).
Products are the substances formed from chemical reactions.
3) The balanced chemical equation:
3NaHCO₃ + H₃C₆H₅O₇ → 3H₂O + 3CO₂ + Na₃C₆H₅O₇.
