Answer:
0.93 grams per milliliter
Explanation:
Density is the division of mass by volume. It is how "hefty" an object is; for example, wood isn't very "hefty" but metal is. The density is measured in mass over volume, so it is 9.3/10. After applying units, it is 0.93 grams per milliliter.
Answer:
a. 2 HgO(s) ⇒ 2 Hg(l) + O₂(g)
b. 0.957 g
Explanation:
Step 1: Write the balanced equation
2 HgO(s) ⇒ 2 Hg(l) + O₂(g)
Step 2: Convert 130.0 °C to Kelvin
We will use the following expression.
K = °C + 273.15
K = 130.0°C + 273.15
K = 403.2 K
Step 3: Calculate the moles of O₂
We will use the ideal gas equation.
P × V = n × R × T
n = P × V/R × T
n = 1 atm × 0.0730 L/0.0821 atm.L/mol.K × 403.2 K
n = 2.21 × 10⁻³ mol
Step 4: Calculate the moles of HgO that produced 2.21 × 10⁻³ moles of O₂
The molar ratio of HgO to O₂ is 2:1. The moles of HgO required are 2/1 × 2.21 × 10⁻³ mol = 4.42 × 10⁻³ mol.
Step 5: Calculate the mass corresponding to 4.42 × 10⁻³ moles of HgO
The molar mass of HgO is 216.59 g/mol.
4.42 × 10⁻³ mol × 216.59 g/mol = 0.957 g
Answer:
As metals are giant lattice structures, the number of electrostatic forces to be broken is extremely large, and so metals have high melting and boiling points. This means that the melting point and boiling point of metals are more similar to those for ionic compounds than for covalent substances.
Explanation:
The key to most "how do I separate." questions is solubility.
The trick is to add a liquid that will only dissolve one substance but not another.
Let's say you had a beaker full of sand, table salt (NaCl), and acetanilide. Is there anything you can add that would only dissolve one of these three substances?
Yes, there is! Acetanilide like most organic compounds, isn't soluble in water. But salt is soluble in water. So to the mixture, I would add water, and then pass the water through a filter. The filter paper will "catch" the sand and acetanilide, but the table salt will remain dissolved in the water. If you then let that water evaporate (either via boiling or under vacuum), you will recover your salt.
So now, how to do you separate the sand from the acetanilide? Sand isn't really soluble in anything, but acetanilide is soluble in organic solvents, such as ethanol. So to the mixture of sand and acetanilide, add ethanol, and pass it through a filter. The sand will once again get stuck in the filter paper, and your acetanilide will be dissolved in ethanol. Remove the ethanol (via vacuum, or rotovap) and you will be left with acetanilide.
