2. What ions are present in what ratio in a solution of aqueous calcium chloride?
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

\mathrm{Ca}^{2+} \text { and } \mathrm{Cl} \text { - ions are present in } 1: 2 \text { ratio in a solution of aqueous calcium chloride. }

Explanation:

Here in Calcium Chloride ionic bond is present in between calcium and chlorine atoms. As we know according to Octet rule calcium have two excess atoms and for matching nearest noble gas electronic configuration. It donate two electrons to gain more stability and form \mathrm{Ca}^{2+}, while chlorine is deficient from one electron to meet nearest noble gas electronic configuration therefore two chlorine atoms accept excess electron from calcium individually and form two\mathrm{Cl}^{-} ions.

\text { Equation is as follows: } \mathrm{Ca}^{2+}+2 \mathrm{Cl}^{-} \rightarrow \mathrm{CaCl}_{2}

Hence aqueous solution of calcium chloride breaks the ionic bond pairing in one \mathrm{Ca}^{2+}and two\mathrm{Cl}^{-}ions: \mathrm{CaCl}_{2} \longrightarrow \mathrm{H}_{2} \mathrm{O} \quad \mathrm{Ca}^{2+}(\mathrm{ag})+2 \mathrm{Cl}(\mathrm{ag})

Naphthalene, commonly found in moth balls, is composed of 93.7% carbon and 6.3% hydrogen. The molar mass of naphthalene is 128 g
Vikki [24]

Answer:

Molecular formula naphthalene → C₁₀H₈

Empirical formula naphthalene → C₅H₄

Explanation:

Centesimal composition means that in 100 g of compound we have x g of the element. Therefore in 100 g of naphthalene we have:

93.7 g of C

6.3 g of H

Let's make a rule of three:

In 100 g of naphthalene we have 93.7 g of C  and 6.3 g of H

In 128 g of naphthalene we would have:

128 . 93.7 / 100 = 120 g of C

128.  6.3 / 100 = 8 g of H

We convert the mass to moles, by molar mass:

120 g . 1mol / 12 g = 10 moles C

8 g . 1mol/ 1g = 8 moles H

Molecular formula naphthalene → C₁₀H₈

Empirical formula naphthalene → C₅H₄

(The sub-index of each element is divided by the largest possible number)

If you start with 30 moles of O2, how many moles of SiO2 can you make?
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

30moles of SiO₂

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Number of moles of O₂  = 30moles

Unknown:

Number of moles of SiO₂  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we need to write the reaction expression:

       Si +  O₂  →  SiO₂  

The reaction is balanced;

      1 mole of O₂ will produce 1 mole of SiO₂

     30mole of O₂ will produce 30moles of SiO₂
