Answer:

Explanation:

Covalent Compounds in Water. When covalent compounds dissolve in water they break apart into molecules, but not individual atoms. Water is a polar solvent, but covalent compounds are usually nonpolar. This means covalent compounds typically don't dissolve in water, instead making a separate layer on the water's surface

27. The density of nickel is 8.91 g/cm3. How large a cube, in cm3, would contain 2.00 x 10^24 atoms of nickel? Use dimensional a

jok3333 [9.3K]

Answer : The volume of the cube is, $21.88cm^3$

Solution : Given,

Density of nickel = $8.91g/cm^3$

Number of nickel atoms = $2\times 10^{24}$

Molar mass of nickel = 58.7 g/mole

First we have to calculate the moles of nickel.

As, $6.022\times 10^{23}$ atoms form 1 mole of nickel

So, $2\times 10^{24}$ atoms form $\frac{2\times 10^{24}}{6.022\times 10^{23}}=3.321$ moles of nickel

The moles of nickel = 3.321 moles

Now we have to calculate the mass of nickel.

$\text{ Mass of Ni}=\text{ Moles of Ni}\times \text{ Molar mass of Ni}$

$\text{ Mass of Ni}=(3.321moles)\times (58.7g/mole)=194.94g$

The mass of nickel = 194.94 g

Now we have to calculate the volume of nickel.

$Density=\frac{Mass}{Volume}$

$8.91g/cm^3=\frac{194.94g}{Volume}$

$Volume=21.88cm^3$

Therefore, the volume of the cube is, $21.88cm^3$

2) Calculate the mass(g) of the following substances:<br> b) 0.119 mole MgCl2

VARVARA [1.3K]

Answer:

MgCl2 = 24 + 2(35.5)

= 95

mass of substance = mol × molar mass

= 0.119 × 95

= 11.305 g

Answer:

The correct answer is reduction.

Explanation:

Nitrogen gas reacts with hydrogen gas and get reduced to form ammonia. In this reaction.This is important reaction of atmospheric nitrogen fixation.The reaction is carried out by many nitrogen fixing bacteria such as Azotobacter,Clostridium etc.

N2+3H2+6e- = 2NH3
