Answer:

58mL

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Density of water = 1g/mL

Mass of object = 58g

Unknown:

The volume the object must have to be able to float in water = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we know that the object must have density value equal to that of water or less than that of water to be able to float.

We then set its density to that of water;

Density = $\frac{mass}{volume}$

Volume = $\frac{mass}{density}$

So;

Volume = $\frac{58}{1}$ = 58mL

Cu + 2AgNO3 es002-1.jpg 2Ag + Cu(NO3)2 How many moles of copper must react to form 0.854 mol Ag?

marin [14]

Balance Chemical Equation is as follow,

<span> Cu + 2 AgNO</span>₃ → 2 Ag + Cu(NO₃)₂

According to Balance Equation,

2 Moles of Ag is produced by reacting = 1 Mole of Cu
So,
0.854 Moles of Ag will be produced by reacting = X Moles of Cu

Solving for X,
X = (0.854 mol × 1 mol) ÷ 2 mol

X = 0.427 Moles of Cu
Result:
0.854 Moles of Ag are produced by reacting 0.427 Moles of Cu.

Write the complete ionic equations, spectator ions and net ionic equation for the following.

gizmo_the_mogwai [7]

Answer:

Explanation:

1) ZnBr₂ (aq) + AgNO₃ (aq)

Chemical equation:

ZnBr₂ (aq) + AgNO₃ (aq) →Zn(NO₃)₂(aq) + AgBr(s)

Balanced chemical equation:

ZnBr₂ (aq) + 2AgNO₃ (aq) →Zn(NO₃)₂(aq) + 2AgBr(s)

Ionic equation:

Zn²⁺(aq) + Br₂²⁻ (aq) + 2Ag⁺ (aq)+ 2NO⁻₃ (aq) → Zn²⁺(aq) +(NO₃)₂²⁻(aq) + 2AgBr(s)

Net ionic equation:

Br₂²⁻ (aq) + 2Ag⁺ (aq) → 2AgBr(s)

The Zn²⁺((aq) and NO⁻₃ (aq) are spectator ions that's why these are not written in net ionic equation. The AgBr can not be splitted into ions because it is present in solid form.

Spectator ions:

These ions are same in both side of chemical reaction. These ions are cancel out. Their presence can not effect the equilibrium of reaction that's why these ions are omitted in net ionic equation.

2) HgCl₂ (aq) + KI (aq) →

Chemical equation:

HgCl₂ (aq) + KI (aq) → KCl + HgI₂

Balanced chemical equation:

HgCl₂ (aq) + 2KI (aq) → 2KCl(aq) + HgI₂(s)

Ionic equation:

Hg²⁺(aq) + Cl₂²⁻ (aq) + 2K⁺(aq) + 2I⁻ (aq) → HgI₂ (s) + 2K⁺(aq) + 2Cl⁻ (aq)

Net ionic equation:

Hg²⁺(aq) + 2I⁻ (aq) → HgI₂ (s)

The Cl⁻ ((aq) and K⁺ (aq) are spectator ions that's why these are not written in net ionic equation. The HgI₂ (s) can not be splitted into ions because it is present in solid form.

Spectator ions:

These ions are same in both side of chemical reaction. These ions are cancel out. Their presence can not effect the equilibrium of reaction that's why these ions are omitted in net ionic equation.

3) Ca(OH)₂ (aq) + Na₂SO₄ (aq)

Chemical equation:

Ca(OH)₂ (aq) + Na₂SO₄ (aq) → CaSO₄(s) + NaOH(aq)

Balanced chemical equation:

Ca(OH)₂ (aq) + Na₂SO₄ (aq) → CaSO₄(s) + 2NaOH(aq)

Ionic equation:

Ca²⁺(aq) + OH₂²⁻ (aq) + 2Na⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻ (aq) → CaSO₄(s) + 2Na⁺(aq) + 2OH⁻ (aq)

Net ionic equation:

Ca²⁺(aq) + SO₄²⁻ (aq) → CaSO₄(s)

The OH⁻ ((aq) and Na⁺ (aq) are spectator ions that's why these are not written in net ionic equation. The CaSO₄ can not be splitted into ions because it is present in solid form.

Spectator ions:

These ions are same in both side of chemical reaction. These ions are cancel out. Their presence can not effect the equilibrium of reaction that's why these ions are omitted in net ionic equation.
