Answer:

When a sodium atom transfers an electron to a chlorine atom, forming a sodium cation (Na+) and a chloride anion (Cl-), both ions have complete valence shells, and are energetically more stable. The reaction is extremely exothermic, producing a bright yellow light and a great deal of heat energy.

A student has a mixture of salt (NaCl) and sugar (C12H22O11). To determine the percentage, the student measures out 5.84 grams o
julsineya [31]

Answer:

The volume of 1.0 AgNO₃ that would be required to precipitate 5.84 grams of NaCl is 99.93 ml

Explanation:

Here we have the reaction of AgNO₃ and NaCl as follows;

AgNO₃(aq) + NaCl(aq)→ AgCl(s) + NaNO₃(aq)

Therefore, one mole of silver nitrate, AgNO₃, reacts with one mole of sodium chloride, NaCl, to produce one mole of silver choride, AgCl, and one mole of sodium nitrate, NaNO₃,

Therefore, since 5.84 grams of NaCl which is 58.44 g/mol, contains

Number \, of \, moles, n  = \frac{Mass}{Molar \ mass} =  \frac{5.84}{58.44} = 0.09993 \ moles \ of \ NaCl

0.09993 moles of NaCl will react with 0.09993 moles of AgNO₃

Also, as 1.0 M solution of AgNO₃ contains 1 mole per 1 liter or 1000 mL, therefore, the volume of AgNO₃ that will contain 0.09993 moles is given as follows;

0.09993 × 1 Liter/mole= 0.09993 L = 99.93 mL

Therefore, the volume of 1.0 AgNO₃ that would be required to precipitate 5.84 grams of NaCl is 99.93 ml.

Why is it difficult to undergo nucleophilic substitution in haloarene?​
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

In Haloarenes the C atom to which the X group is attached is SP2 hybridized thus it is become difficult to replace it by the Nucleophile. Since arenes and Vinyl halides are electron rich molecules due to presenceof n bonds, they repel Nucleophile attacking them.

Anybody know chemistry Grahams law ?
sukhopar [10]
There is two different types but i’ll just do both meanings just incase.

Graham's Law of Diffusion: the rate of diffusion of one gas through another is inversely proportional to the square root of the density of the gas.

Graham's Law of Effusion: the rate of effusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of the density of the gas.

hopes this helps..!
