Calculate the mass of aluminum in 500 g of Al(C2H3O2)3

Luden [163]

Answer: 66.2 g

Explanation:

1) The ratio of Al in the molecule is 1 mol to 1 mol .

2) The mass of 1 mol of molecules of Al (CH2H3O2)3 is the molar mass of the compound.

3) You calculate the molar mass of the compound using the atomic masses of each atom, in this way:

Al: 27 g/mol
C: 2 * 3 * 12 g/mol = 72 g/mol
H: 3 * 3 * 1 g/mol = 9 g/mol
O: 2 * 3 * 16 g/mol = 96 g/mol

Molar mass = 27 g/mol + 72 g/mol + 9 g/mol + 96 g/mol = 204 g/mol

4) Set a proportion:

27 g/mol x
-------------------- = ----------
204 g/mol 500 g

5) Solve for x:

x = 500 g * 27 g/mol / 204 g/mol = 66.2 g

2. In Experiment SOL, you investigated the solubility of oxalic acid. Sodium oxalate, Na2C2O¬4, is the sodium salt of this acid.

AnnZ [28]

Answer:

Sodium oxalate is a basic salt. In water it can be dissolved and dissociated.

The oxalic acid in water has two dissociations.

Explanation:

Na2C2O4 ---> 2Na+ + C2O4-2

Sodium oxalate is the conjugate base of a weak acid. In water this salt, dissociates completely giving rise to the sodium and oxalate ions. As Na+ comes from a strong base, in water it does not produce hydrolysis while oxalate does react in water, because it takes a proton from it and it generates a basic hydrolysis releasing OH-.

C2O4-2 + H2O ⇄ HC2O4- + OH-

In water the salt is basic. The pH of an aqueous solution of this salt is basic, since OH- is generated.

The HC2O4- has a second hydrolisis, it takes another proton from water to form oxalic acid.

HC2O4- + H2O ⇄ H2C2O4 + OH-

The oxalic acid acts as a weak acid, it can release 2 protons to water, to make oxalate (its conjugate base).

H2C2O4 + H2O ⇄ H3O+ + HC2O4-

HC2O4- + H2O ⇄ H3O+ C2O4-2

The HC2O4- acts as an ampholyte since it accepts and delivers protons simultaneously.

Explain the difference between mechanical weathering and chemical weathering

Alchen [17]

Answer:

mechanical weathering breaks rocks into smaller forms without any change in their composition whereas chemical weathering breaks down rocks by forming new minerals .

or simply mechanical weathering is the physical breakdown of rocks while chemical weathering is the breakdown of rocks through chemical reactions .
