Explain what a chemical reaction is and moles

Chemistry
1 answer:
Delvig [45]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

A process during which chemical bonds between atoms are broken and new ones are formed, producing one or more substances.

Moles are the amount of substance that contains as many particles.

Explanation:

A chemical reaction is when a chemical change occurs for example when a nail comes into contact with air and is then exposed to air it begins to rust. It forms a red-brown substance which changes the chemical composition of the original compound.

Examples of chemical reactions:

Combustion

Oxidation (rusting)

Cooking an egg

Photosynthesis

Digestion

Fireworks

Paper Burnin

The mole is the amount of substance that contains as many particles (molecules, ions or atoms) as there are in 12g of carbon.

1 mol is the amount of substance that contains the same number of particles as there are atoms in 12.0 g of carbon-12 and that number is referred to as Avogardo's constant (6.022 x 10^{23}).

Percent concentration is one of the most common and basic concentration measurement used by general public. true or false?
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

  • <u>TRUE:</u> <em>Percent concentration is one of the most common and basic concentration measurement used by general public</em>

Explanation:

In chemistry there are many <em>concentration measurements</em> used to describe the mixtures. Some of them are, percent, molarity, molality, and molar fraction, among others.

Percent concentration is a popular one because it is commonly understood and used by the non specialist people, i.e. general public.

The percent concentration of a component is defined as: (amount of component in the mixture / amount of mixture) × 100.

The amounts may be measured in mass units (e.g grams) or volume units (e.g. mililiters).

For solutions, mass percent concentration is:

  • % = (mass of solute / mass of solution) × 100.

And voluem percen contration is:

  • % = (volume of solute / volume of solution) × 100

Since percentage is used in many profesional and personal activities, most persons use it.

For example, rubbing alcohol, that everyone buys in pharmacies, is 70%; vinager, used in the food, is acetic acid at 5% - 8%.

How does the tilt of earth <br>affect the climate?
masha68 [24]
The tilt of the earth provides the earth with seasons. As the earth revolved around the sun different portions (northern or Southern Hemisphere) is exposed more directly to the suns radiation, thus it is hotter in those regions. (Why the United States experiences winter in December but Australia experience summer in December.)

How many sodium ions are in 4543.3 g of NaCl?
Stella [2.4K]

Answer:

4.68x10²⁵ ions of Na⁺

Explanation:

First of all, we dissociate the salt:

NaCl(aq) → Na⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq)

An aqueous solution of NaCl dissociates in chlorides anions and sodium cations. Ratio is 1:1, per 1 mol of NaCl, we have 1 mol of Na⁺

We determine the moles of salt: 4543.3 g . 1mol / 58.45 g = 77.7 moles

77.7 moles are the amount of NaCl, therefore we have 77.7 moles of Na⁺.

We count the ions:

1 mol fo Na⁺ has 6.02x10²³ ions

77.7 moles of Na⁺ must have (77.7 . 6.02x10²³) / 1 = 4.68x10²⁵ ions of Na⁺
