Answer:

For the first oxide, 1 g gives 0.888 g of copper.

Dividing by 0.888 tells us that 1.126 g gives 1 g of copper so has 0.126 g of oxygen.

For the second oxide, 1 g gives 0.798 g of copper.

Dividing by 0.798 tells us that 1.253 g gives 1 g of copper so has 0.253 g of oxygen.

So 1 g of copper combines with either 0.126 g or 0.253 g of oxygen.

Within the limits of experimental error, 0.253 is twice 0.126, confirming the law of multiple proportion.

Answer: let the two oxides of Cu be named A and B

oxide A

mass of Cu in 1g of oxide A = 0.888g

mass of O in 1g of oxide A =1-0.888=0.112g

oxide B

mass of Cu in 1g of   oxide B = 0.799g

mass of O in g of oxide B = 1-0.799=0.201g

In oxide A , 1g Cu is combined with oxygen = 0.112 x 1/0.888 = 0.126g

In oxide B , 1g Cu is combined with oxygen = 0.201 x 1/0.799 = 0.252g

the different weight of oxygen combined with a fixed weight (1g) of Cu are in ratio 0.126 : 0.252  or 1: 2

A sample of sulfurous acid (H2SO3) has a mass of 1.31 g.
lakkis [162]

Answer:

a) 2 (H+) ions

b) 1 (SO3²-) ions

c) 1.36 × 10^-22 grams.

Explanation:

According to this question, sulfurous acid has a chemical formula; H2SO3. It is made up of hydrogen and sulfite ion. Hydrogen ion (H+) is the cation while sulfite ion (SO32-) is the anion.

Based on the chemical formula, there are 2 moles of hydrogen ions that reacts with 1 mole of sulfite ion as follows:

2H+ + SO3²- → H2SO3

Hence;

- there are 2 hydrogen ions (2H+) present in H2SO3.

- there is 1 sulfite ion (SO3²-) present in H2SO3.

c) The mass of one formula unit of H2SO3 is calculated thus:

= 1.008 (2) + 32.065 + 15.999(3)

= 2.016 + 32.065 + 47.997

= 82.08 a.m.u

Since, 1 gram is = 6.02 x 10^23 a.m.u

82.08 a.m.u = 82.08/6.02 × 10^-23

= 13.6 × 10^-23

= 1.36 × 10^-22 grams.

How many grams of nitric acid HNO₃, are required to neutralize (completely react with) 4.30 grams of Ca(OH)2 according to the ac
Brrunno [24]

Answer:

7.32g of HNO3 are required.

Explanation:

1st) From the balanced reaction we know that 2 moles of HNO3 react with 1 mole of Ca(OH)2 to produce 2 moles of H2O and 1 mole of Ca(NO3)2.

From this, we find that the relation between HNO3 and Ca(OH)2 is that 2 moles of HNO3 react with 1 mole of Ca(OH)2.

2nd) This is the order of the relations that we have to use in the equation to calculate the grams of nitric acid:

• starting with the 4.30 grams of Ca(OH)2.

,

• using the molar mass of Ca(OH)2 (74g/mol).

,

• relation of the 2 moles of HNO3 that react with 1 mole of Ca(OH)2 .

,

• using the molar mass of HNO3 (63.02g/mol).

4.30g\text{ Ca\lparen OH\rparen}_2*\frac{1\text{ mol Ca\lparen OH\rparen}_2}{74g\text{ Ca\lparen OH\rparen}_2}*\frac{2\text{ moles HNO}_3}{1\text{ mole Ca\lparen OH\rparen}_2}*\frac{63.02g\text{ HNO}_3}{1\text{ mole HNO}_3}=7.32g\text{ HNO}_3

So, 7.32g of HNO3 are required.

If a sample of sodium chloride with a mass of
alex41 [277]
Original molarity was 1.7 moles of NaCl

Final molarity was 0.36 moles of NaCl

Given Information:

Original (concentrated) solution: 25 g NaCl in a 250 mL solution, solve for molarity

Final (diluted) solution: More water is added to make the new total volume 1.2 liters, solve for the new molarity

1. Solve for the molarity of the original (concentrated) solution.

Molarity (M) = moles of solute (mol) / liters of solution (L)

Convert the given information to the appropriate units before plugging in and solving for molarity.

Molarity (M) = 0.43 mol NaCl solute / 0.250 L solution = 1.7 M NaCl (original solution)

2. Solve for the molarity of the final (diluted) solution.

Remember that the amount of solute remains constant in a dilution problem; it is just the total volume of the solution that changes due to the addition of solvent.

Molarity (M) = 0.43 mol NaCl solute / 1.2 L solution

Molarity (M) of the final solution = 0.36 M NaCl

I hope this helped:))
