When copper oxide is reacted with sulfuric acid, the acid is often gently heated. This is done in order to:

1 answer:

7 0

Copper oxide(solid) + Sulphuric Acid (aqueous)-> Copper Sulphate (aqueous)+ Water(liquid)

In equation form:

CuO +H2SO4 -> CuSO4 + H2O

The colour change you will see is black to blue as Copper oxide is usually found as a black powder. Upon the reaction with sulphuric acid it will change to a cyan blue.

If you heat the made solution of copper sulphate, the water will evaporate and you will be left with white anhydrous copper sulphate crystals.

A radioisotope decays to give an alpha particle andPb-208.

oee [108]

Answer: The original element is $_{84}^{212}\textrm{Po}$

Explanation:

Alpha decay is defined as the process in which alpha particle is emitted. In this process, a heavier nuclei decays into a lighter nuclei. The alpha particle released carries a charge of +2 units.

The released alpha particle is also known as helium nucleus.

$_Z^A\textrm{X}\rightarrow _{Z-2}^{A-4}\textrm{Y}+_2^4\alpha$

For the given alpha decay process of an isotope:

$^{Z}_{A}\textrm{X}\rightarrow ^{208}_{82}\textrm{Pb}+_2^4\alpha$

To calculate A:

Total mass on reactant side = total mass on product side

A = 208 + 4

A = 212

To calculate Z:

Total atomic number on reactant side = total atomic number on product side

Z = 82 + 2

Z = 84

The isotopic symbol of unknown element is $_{84}^{212}\textrm{Po}$

Hence, the original element is $_{84}^{212}\textrm{Po}$

What is the molarity of a solution prepared by dissolving 8 grams of BaCl2 in enough water to make a 450. 0 mL solution? (Hint:

Salsk061 [2.6K]

Molarity is the molar concentration of the solute dissolved in a volume of a solution. The molarity of the solution prepared by dissolving barium chloride will be 0.085 M.

<h3>What is molarity?</h3>

Molarity is the ratio of the moles of the solute to that of the volume of the solution in Liters. It can be given as,

$\rm Molarity = \dfrac{moles}{Volume}$

Here, moles of the barium chloride can be given by the mass and the molar mass and volume is given as 0.450 L.

Substituting values in the equation:

$\begin{aligned}\rm Molarity &= \rm \dfrac{mass}{Molar \;mass\times Volume}\\\\&= \dfrac{8}{208.23\times 0.450}\\\\&= 0.085\;\rm M\end{aligned}$

Therefore, 0.085 M barium chloride is the molar concentration.

A student prepares a aqueous solution of butanoic acid . Calculate the fraction of butanoic acid that is in the dissociated form

ella [17]

Answer:

15.4%

Explanation:

If Ka = 0.54 mM = 1.51x10⁻⁵

Then;

C₄H₈O₂ --------> C₄H₇O₂⁻ + H⁺

I 0.54x10⁻³ 0 0

E 0.54x10⁻³(1-x) 0.54x10⁻³x 0.54x10⁻³x

Recall that x is the percentage degree of dissociation

From the ICE table;

Ka = [C₄H₇O₂⁻] [ H⁺]/[C₄H₈O₂]

1.51x10⁻⁵=(0.54x10⁻³x) (0.54x10⁻³x)/ 0.54x10⁻³(1-x)

1.51x10⁻⁵ = 0.54x10⁻³x^2/1-x

1.51x10⁻⁵(1-x) = 0.54x10⁻³x^2

1.51x10⁻⁵ - 1.51x10⁻⁵x = 0.54x10⁻³x^2

Hence;

0.54x10⁻³x^2 + 1.51x10⁻⁵x - 1.51x10⁻⁵=0

x^2 + 0.028x - 0.028 = 0

Solving the quadratic equation here;

x = 0.154 or −0.182

Ignoring the negative result, x = 0.154

Hence, fraction of butanoic acid that is in the dissociated form in this solution = 15.4%
