Hg(No3)2 +NaSO4 --->2NaNO3 + HgSO4(s)
calculate the moles of each reactant
moles=mass/molar mass
moles of Hg(NO3)2= 51.429g/ 324.6 g/mol(molar mass of Hg(NO3)2)=0.158 moles
moles Na2SO4 16.642g/142g/mol= 0.117 moles of Na2SO4
Na2SO4 is the limiting reagent in the equation and by use mole ratio Na2So4 to HgSO4 is 1:1 therefore the moles of HgSO4 =0.117 moles
mass of HgSO4=moles x molar mass of HgSo4= 0.117 g x 303.6g/mol= 35.5212 grams
Answer:
The removal of one or more electrons from a neutral atom results in a cation.
Explanation:
When you remove electrons from a neutral atom, the atom becomes more positive. Electrons have a negative charge and the protons inside of the nucleus have a positive charge. When electrons are removed, the positive charges from the protons outweigh the negative charges. This results in a positively charged atom, called a cation.
Answer:
This observation can be explained under the following reasons:
- High sodium content
- Lowered heat temperature
- Organic burn
Explanation:
High sodium content from the potato fluid causes the flame to turn yellow, as indicative of the presence of sodium (flame test).
The colour change could also be attributed to the drastic lowering of the burner heat. Finally, pure organics like wood and fats burn red, a would be the case with fluids from the boiled potatoes.
I hope this explanation was helpful.
