The amount ofcalcium present in milk can be determined by adding oxalate to asample and measuring the massof calcium oxalate pre

Sauron [17]

Answer: The mass percent of calcium in milk is 0.107 %

Explanation:

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

$\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}$ .....(1)

Given mass of calcium oxalate = 0.429 g

Molar mass of calcium oxalate = 128.1 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$\text{Moles of calcium oxalate}=\frac{0.429g}{128.1g/mol}=0.0033mol$

The given chemical equation follows:

$Na_2C_2O_4(aq.)+Ca^{2+}(aq.)\rightarrow CaC_2O_4(s)+2Na^+(aq.)$

Sodium oxalate is present in excess. So, it is considered as an excess reagent. And, calcium ion is a limiting reagent because it limits the formation of product.

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

1 mole of calcium oxalate is produced from 1 mole of calcium ion

So, 0.0033 moles of calcium oxalate is produced from = $\frac{1}{1}\times 0.0033=0.0033mol$ of calcium ions

Now, calculating the mass of calcium ions by using equation 1, we get:

Moles of calcium ions = 0.0033 moles

Molar mass of calcium ions = 40 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

$0.0033mol=\frac{\text{Mass of calcium ions}}{40g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of calcium ions}=(0.0033mol\times 40g/mol)=0.132g$

To calculate the mass percentage of calcium ions in milk, we use the equation:

$\text{Mass percent of calcium ions}=\frac{\text{Mass of calcium ions}}{\text{Mass of milk}}\times 100$

Mass of milk = 125 g

Mass of calcium ions = 0.132 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$\text{Mass percent of calcium ions}=\frac{0.132g}{125g}\times 100=0.107\%$

Hence, the mass percent of calcium in milk is 0.107 %

Whats the difference between Homogeneous and Hetrogeneuos?

irakobra [83]

Answer:

Homogeneous - With a uniform appearance

Heterogeneous - With visible differences in the mixture

Explanation:

Referring to mixtures, homogeneous looks the same throughout, while heterogeneous has particles or whatnot.

Basically:

Homo means same

Hetero means different

How many moles of CO2 must dissolve in excess water to produce 12 moles of H2CO3?

vodka [1.7K]

Answer:

12 moles of CO₂.

Explanation:

We'll begin by writing the balanced equation for the reaction. This is illustrated below:

CO₂ + H₂O —> H₂CO₃

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of CO₂ dissolves in water to produce 1 mole of H₂CO₃.

Finally, we shall determine the number of moles of CO₂ that will dissolve in water to produce 12 moles of H₂CO₃. This can be obtained as follow:

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of CO₂ dissolves in water to produce 1 mole of H₂CO₃.

Therefore, 12 moles of CO₂ will also dissolve in water to produce 12 moles of H₂CO₃.

Thus, 12 moles of CO₂ is required.
