Answer:

34 mL

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the number of mole in 1.25 g of sodium carbonate, Na₂CO₃. This can be obtained as follow:

Mass of Na₂CO₃ = 1.25 g

Molar mass of Na₂CO₃ = (23×2) + 12 + (16×3)

= 46 + 12 + 48

= 106 g/mol

Mole of Na₂CO₃ =?

Mole = mass /molar mass

Mole of Na₂CO₃ = 1.25 / 106

Mole of Na₂CO₃ = 0.012 mole

Next, we shall determine the number of mole HCl needed to react with 0.012 mole of Na₂CO₃.

The equation for the reaction is given below:

Na₂CO₃ + 2HCl —> H₂CO₃ + 2NaCl

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of Na₂CO₃ reacted with 2 moles of HCl.

Therefore, 0.012 mole of Na₂CO₃ will react with = 0.012 × 2 = 0.024 mole of HCl.

Next, we shall determine the volume of HCl required for the reaction. This is illustrated:

Mole of HCl = 0.024 mole

Molarity of HCl = 0.715 M

Volume of HCl =?

Molarity = mole /Volume

0.715 = 0.024 / volume of HCl

Cross multiply

0.715 × volume of HCl = 0.024

Divide both side by 0.715

Volume of HCl = 0.024 / 0.715

Volume of HCl = 0.034 L

Finally, we shall convert 0.034 L to mL

This can be obtained as follow:

1 L = 1000 mL

Therefore,

0.034 L = 0.034 L × 1000 mL / 1 L

0.034 L = 34 mL

Therefore, 34 mL of HCl is needed for the reaction.

Please Help!! How does alpha decay change the nucleus of radioactive atom.

cluponka [151]

Answer:

When atom undergoes the alpha emission the original atom convert into the atom having mass number less than 4 and atomic number 2 less than the starting atom.

Explanation:

Alpha radiations are emitted as a result of radioactive decay. The atom emit the alpha particles consist of two proton and two neutrons. Which is also called helium nuclei. When atom undergoes the alpha emission the original atom convert into the atom having mass number less than 4 and atomic number 2 less than the starting atom.

Properties of alpha radiation:

Alpha radiations can travel in a short distance.

These radiations can not penetrate into the skin or clothes.

These radiations can be harmful for the human if these are inhaled.

These radiations can be stopped by a piece of paper.

Barium nitrate and sodium sulfate solutions can be used to precipitate barium sulfate. How many grams

-Dominant- [34]

Answer:

40.8g of sodium sulfate must be added

Explanation:

The reaction of barium nitrate, Ba(NO₃)₂ with sodium sulfate, Na₂SO₄ is:

Ba(NO₃)₂ + Na₂SO₄ → 2 NaNO₃ + BaSO₄(s)

That means, for a complete reaction of an amount of barium nitrate you must add the same amount in moles of sodium sulfate. To solve this problem we need to convert the mass of barium nitrate to moles = Moles of sodium sulfate that must be added:

Moles Ba(NO₃)₂ -Molar mass: 261.3g/mol-:

75g * (1mol / 261.3g) = 0.287 moles = Moles Na₂SO₄

Mass Na₂SO₄ -Molar mass: 142.04g/mol-:

0.287 moles * (142.04g / mol) =

<h3>40.8g of sodium sulfate must be added</h3>

A solution contains one or more of the following ions: Ag+, Ca2+, and Fe2+. When sodium chloride is added to the solution, no pr

Ksju [112]

Answer:

the ion present in the original solution is Ca2+

Explanation:

Precipitation reactions occur when cations and anions in aqueous solution combine to form an insoluble ionic solid called a precipitate.

Step1 : If we add Nacl to the solution, there is no precipitate formed

⇒The only possible ion that can form a precipate with Cl- is Ag+; since there is no precipitate formed, Ag+ is not present

Step2 : If we add Na2SO4 to the solution, a white precipitate is formed

The possible ions to bind at SO42- are Ca2+ and Fe2+

But the white precipitate formed, points in the direction of Ca2+

⇒This means calcium is present

Step3 : If we add Na2CO3 to the filtered solution, there is a precipate formed

Ca2+ will bind also with CO32- and form a precipitate

So the ion present in the original solution is Ca2+

Which element has Atoms with the strongest association for electrons in A chemical bond

Marat540 [252]

The most electronegative element will have atoms with strongest association for electrons. Electronegativity is the ability of an atom to attract electrons and form bonds with electrons. . In the periodic table the left hand side favors the loss of electrons because less energy is required to lose an electron than to gain an electron. On the other han, the right hand side favors gaining electrons since less energy is required than when losing electrons.

Henceforth, from left to right in the periodic table the tendency to gain electrons increases. In contrast, going down a group there is decreased association for electrons, because atomic radius increases which suggests that valence electrons are further away from the nucleus.This makes fluoride the ion with strongest association of electrons. The noble gases have a complete shell so cannot attract electrons to themselves, which means they have no electronegativity.
