Answer:
The molar mass of the unknown gas is 100.4 g/mol
Explanation:
Step 1: Data given
Molar mass of argon = 39.95 g/mol
After filling with argon the flask gained 3.221 grams
After filling with an unknown gas, the flask gained 8.107 grams
Step 2: Calculate the molar mass of the unknown gas
The gas with the higher molar mass will have the higher density.
Ar - 3.224 g; molar mass = 39.95 g/mol
X = 8.102 g; molar mass = ??
Molar mass of the unknown gas = 8.102g X *(39.95 g/mol / 3.224 g) = 100.4 g/mol
The molar mass of the unknown gas is 100.4 g/mol
The correct answer are
identify the positive ion and charge
balance the charges
identify the negative ion and charge
<span>An element belonging to the halogen family would be expected to have a large ionization energy and a large electron affinity.
Flourine, Chlorine, Bromine, Iodine and astatine are the elements that belongs to the halogen family and mostly they have high values of ionization energy.
The amount of energy released when an electron is added to an atom or molecule to form a negative ion or anion is electron affinity.</span>Chlorine from this family has highest electron affinity.
The mass of 1.72 mol of magnesium fluoride is 107 grams.
To determine the mass of 1.72 mol of magnesium fluoride, we first need the chemical formula of magnesium fluoride. Magnesium forms a +2 ion (Mg+2) and fluoride forms a -1 ion (F-1). Since all compounds formed from ions have to be electrically neutral, we need 2 fluoride ions and 1 magnesium ion. Therefore, the formula for magnesium fluoride is MgF2.
Now we need to determine the molar mass of the compound from the molar mass values from the periodic table. Let's use a table to calculate this molar mass.
Molar mass of MgF2
Element Molar Mass (g/mol) Quantity Total (g/mol)
Mg 24.31 1 24.31
F 19.00 2 38.00
Total molar mass of MgF2 = 24.31 g/mol + 38.00 g/mol = 62.31 g/mol
This is the mass of one mole of the substance. If we have 1.72 mols of it, we multiply 1.72 by 62.31.
1.72 mol (62.31 g/mol) = 107 grams
We rounded to 107 to keep the correct number of significant digits in our answer.
So basically, the change in color effects the amount of cations in the solution making it a physical change rather than a chemical one, defying the law of conservation of mass! I hope this helped! (The only time the change in color affects the amount of cations is in the Alkaline Earth Metals)
