Reading a Periodic TableUsing Dimensional AnalysisExplanation:

Step 1: Define

30 g SiO₂ (sand)

Step 2: Identify Conversions

Molar Mass of Si - 28.09 g/mol

Molar Mass of O - 16.00 g/mol

Molar Mass of SiO₂ - 28.09 + 2(16.00) = 60.09 g/mol

Step 3: Convert

Set up:                                [tex]\displaystyle 30 \ g \ SiO_2(\frac{1 \ mol \ SiO_2}{60.09 \ g \ SiO_2})[/tex]Multiply/Divide:                  [tex]\displaystyle 0.499251 \ mol \ SiO_2[/tex]

Step 4: Check

Follow sig figs and round. We are given 2 sig figs.

0.499251 mol SiO₂ ≈ 0.50 mol SiO₂

Answer 2

Answer:

[tex]\boxed {\boxed {\sf About \ 0.5 \ moles \ of \ SiO_2}}[/tex]

Explanation:

To convert from grams to moles, we must use the molar mass.

1. Molar Mass

Use the Periodic Table to find the masses of the individual elements (silicon and oxygen) in sand.

Silicon (Si): 28.085 g/mol Oxygen (O): 15.999 g/mol

Examine the formula for sand: SiO₂. There is a subscript of 2 after oxygen, so there must be 2 oxygen atoms. Multiply oxygen's mass by 2 and add silicon's mass to find the molar mass of sand.

SiO₂: 2(15.999 g/mol) + 28.085 g/mol= g/mol

2. Calculate Moles

Use the molar mass as ratio.

[tex]\frac{60.083 \ g \ SiO_2}{1 \ mol \ SiO_2}[/tex]

Multiply by the given number of grams (30)

[tex]30 \ g \ SiO_2 * \frac{60.083 \ g \ SiO_2}{1 \ mol \ SiO_2}[/tex]

Flip the fraction so the grams of sand will cancel.

[tex]30 \ g \ SiO_2 *\frac{1 \ mol \ SiO_2}{60.083 \ g \ SiO_2}[/tex]

[tex]30 *\frac{1 \ mol \ SiO_2}{60.083 }[/tex]

[tex]\frac{30 \ mol \ SiO_2}{60.083 }[/tex]

[tex]0.499309289 \ mol \ SiO_2[/tex]

3. Round

The original measurement of grams has 1 signfiicant figure. We must round our answer to 1 sig fig.

For the answer we found, that is the tenth place. The 9 in the hundredth tells us to round the 4 to a 5.

[tex]\approx 0.5 \ mol \ SiO_2[/tex]

There are about 0.5 moles of SiO₂ in 30 grams.

Use the mole concept to calculate the number of formula units that are in a 1.75-mol sample of NaCl.

Answers

Answer: There are [tex]10.5\times 10^{23}[/tex] formula units in 1.75 mol sample of NaCl.

Explanation:

According to avogadro's law, 1 mole of every substance occupies 22.4 L at STP and contains avogadro's number [tex]6.023\times 10^{23}[/tex] of particles.

1 mole of NaCl contains = [tex]6.023\times 10^{23}[/tex] formula units

Thus 1.75 mol of NaCl contains = [tex]\frac{6.023\times 10^{23}}{1}\times 1.75=10.5\times 10^{23}[/tex] formula units

Thus there are [tex]10.5\times 10^{23}[/tex] formula units in 1.75 mol sample of NaCl.

4. When the mole fraction of solute is 1, there is
(a) a 1:1 ratio of solute to solvent.
(b) no solute present.
(c) only solute present.
(d) only solvent present.
(e) 1 mole of solute and 99 moles of solvent.

Answers

Answer:

(c) only solute present

Explanation:

In chemistry, the mole fraction, denoted by X, refers to the number of moles of a substance in a compound/mixture divided by the total number of substances in the same compound or mixture.

In this case, we can say that mole fraction represents the number of solutes to the number of solutes and solvent in the solution i.e. X = nA/nA + nB

Where; nA = number of solutes

nB = number of solvent

X = mole fraction.

Based on this analogy, When the mole fraction of solute is 1, there is only solute present. That is; X = 1 / 1 + 0

X = 1/1 = 1.

Density is defined by the equation d = m/v. Calculate the density of the wooden block, the rock, and the water by dividing the mass of each object by its volume.

Answers

Answer:

Density, d = 8.92 g/mL

Explanation:

Let mass of the wooden block, m = 46.83  g

The volume of the object, V = 5.25 mL

We need to find the density of the wooden block. The density of an object is given by its mass per unit volume.

density = mass/volume

[tex]d=\dfrac{46.83\ g}{5.25\ mL}\\\\=8.92\ g/mL[/tex]

So, the density of the wooden block is 8.92 g/mL.

3. If 12.5 grams of copper are reacted with excess chlorine gas, then 25.4 grams of
copper (II) chloride are produced. Calculate the theoretical yield and the percent
yield. Cu + Cl2 → CuCl2

Answers

Answer:

Percent yield = 99.6%

Theoretical yield = 25.5 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of copper = 12.5 g

Mass of copper(II) chloride produced = 25.4 g

Theoretical yield = ?

Percent yield = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

Cu + Cl₂       →        CuCl₂

Number of moles of copper:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 12.5 g / 63.5 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.19 mol

Now we will compare the moles of copper and copper chloride.

                  Cu          :           CuCl₂

                     1           :               1

                  0.19        :           0.19

Mass of CuCl₂: Theoretical yield

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.19 mol × 134.45 g/mol

Mass = 25.5 g

Percent yield:

Percent yield = (actual yield / theoretical yield )×100

Percent yield  = ( 25.4 g/ 25.5 g) ×100

Percent yield = 99.6%

: 1

Answers

Answer:

0.01M = [H⁺]; 1x10⁻¹²M = [OH⁻]; Ratio is: 1x10¹⁰

Explanation:

pH is defined as -log [H⁺]

For a pH of 2 we can solve [H⁺] as follows:

pH = -log [H⁺]

2 = -log [H⁺]

10^-2 = [H⁺]

0.01M = [H⁺]

Using Keq of water:

Keq = 1x10⁻¹⁴ = [H⁺] [OH⁻]

1x10⁻¹⁴ / 0.01M = [OH⁻]

1x10⁻¹²M = [OH⁻]

The ratio is:

[H⁺] / [OH⁻] = 0.01 / 1x10⁻¹² =

What is the chemical law?

Answers

Answer:

Chemical laws are those laws of nature relevant to chemistry. The most fundamental concept in chemistry is the law of conservation of mass, which states that there is no detectable change in the quantity of matter during an ordinary chemical reaction. Modern physics shows that it is actually energy that is conserved, and that energy and mass are related; a concept which becomes important in nuclear chemistry. Conservation of energy leads to the important concepts of equilibrium, thermodynamics, and kinetics.

Which Atom experiences a greater shielding effect, Magnesium (Mg) or chlorine (CI)?​

Answers

Answer:

To be stable, an atom or ion should have 8 electrons in the outer shell. This is called the octet rule.

Magnesium is unstable because a magnesium atom has 2 valance electrons in its 3rd shell.

Chlorine is unstable, because a chlorine atom has 7 valance electrons is its 3rd shell.

Chlorine has higher electronegativity than magnesium, so the 2 chlorine atoms will attract 2 electrons from a magnesium atom. This produces a +2 magnesium ion and two -1 chloride ions.

A) A Cl atom donates two electrons to a Mg atom  

B) An Mg atom donates two electrons to a Cl atom.  

C) A Cl atom donates one electron to each of the two Mg atoms.  

D) An Mg atom donates one electron to each of the two Cl atoms. YES

Atoms do not donate any electrons. When a chlorine molecule collides with a magnesium atom, each of the chlorine atoms grab an electron from the outer shell of the magnesium atom. You might think that the magnesium atom would be angry at the chlorine molecule. But, the magnesium atom is much “happier” as a stable +2 ion than a neutral atom. And the chlorine molecule is also “happier” as two -1 chloride ions.

Magnesium chloride is the name for the chemical compounds with the formulas MgCl2 and its various hydrates MgCl2(H2O)x. These salts are typical ionic halides, being highly soluble in water. The hydrated magnesium chloride can be extracted from brine or sea water. Magnesium chloride as the natural mineral bischofite is also extracted (solution mining) out of ancient seabeds; for example, the Zechstein seabed in northwest Europe. Anhydrous magnesium chloride is the principal precursor to magnesium metal, which is produced on a large scale. Hydrated magnesium chloride is the form usually used in prescription oral magnesium supplements.

We are the ones who messed with mother nature. Magnesium chloride was very stable (happy) when it was in the sea water. Humans decided to harvest the MgCl2 and rip it apart to produce little strips of magnesium metal for chemistry class.

In nature, “nobody” freely donates anything to “anyone”. The electrostatic forces in the atoms decide who get the electons.

Explanation:

Given compound Al₂(SO₄)₃

Molar mass of compound:

27×2 + 32×3 + 16×12 = 342 g/mol

Percentage of Al = ( Mass of Al / Total mass ) × 100

Percentage of Al = 54 /342 × 100

Percentage of Al =15.8%

Percentage of S = ( Mass of S / Total mass ) × 100

Percentage of S = 96 /342 × 100

Percentage of S = 28.1 %

Percentage of O = ( Mass of O / Total mass ) × 100

Percentage of O = 192 /342 × 100

Percentage of O = 56.1 %
