Many plants are poisonous because their stems and leaves contain oxalic acid, H2C2O4, or sodium oxalate, Na2C2O4. When ingested,

these substances cause swelling of the respiratory tract and suffocation. A standard analysis for determining the amount of oxalate ion, C2O 2− 4 , in a sample is to precipitate this species as calcium oxalate, which is insoluble in water. Write the net ionic equation for the reaction between sodium oxalate and calcium chloride, CaCl2, in aqueous solution.

Answer:

Explanation:

Calcium chloride is a soluble salt which dissociates into calcium and chloride ions when dissolved in water.

CaCl₂(aq) ----> Ca²⁺(aq) + 2Cl⁻(aq)

Similarly, sodium oxalate when dissolved in water dissociates into sodium and oxalate ions.

Na₂CO₄(aq) ----> 2Na⁺(aq) + C₂O₄²⁻(aq)

However, in a double displacement reaction where the two solutions of the salts are mixed, the insoluble salt calcium oxalate is precipitated. The net ionic equation for the reaction is shown below:

Ca²⁺(aq) + C₂O₄²⁻(aq) ----> CaC₂O₄(s)

An ice cube with a volume of 45.0ml and a density of 0.9000g/cm3 floats in a liquid with a density of 1.36g/ml. what volume of t
Grace [21]

Answer : The volume of the cube submerged in the liquid is, 29.8 mL

Explanation :

First we have to determine the mass of ice.

Formula used :

\text{Mass of ice}=\text{Density of ice}\times \text{Volume of ice}

Given:

Density of ice = 0.9000g/cm^3=0.9000g/mL

Volume of ice = 45.0 mL

\text{Mass of ice}=0.9000g/mL\times 45.0mL

\text{Mass of ice}=40.5g

The cube will float when 40.5 g of liquid is displaced.

Now we have to determine the volume of the cube is submerged in the liquid.

\text{Volume of ice}=\frac{\text{Mass of liquid}}{\text{Density of liquid}}

\text{Volume of ice}=\frac{40.5g}{1.36g/mL}

\text{Volume of ice}=29.8mL

Thus, the volume of the cube submerged in the liquid is, 29.8 mL

Consider isotopes ions protons and electrons. how many of these did dalton not discuss in his atomic theory?
MAVERICK [17]

Answer: He did not discuss about any of these.

Explanation: Dalton proposed some of the postulates for his atomic theory. They are:

1) Matter is made up of atoms which are not divisible.

2) Atoms of different elements combine in a fixed ratio to form compounds.

3) The atomic properties of given element are same including mass. This states that all the atoms of an element have same mass but the atoms of different elements have different masses.

4) No atoms are either created or destroyed during a chemical reaction.

5) Atoms of an element are identical in mass, size and other chemical and physical properties.

As it is visible from the postulates, he only discussed only about the atoms but not subatomic particles or isotopes.

A saturated solution of potassium iodide contains, in each 100 mL, 100 g of potassium iodide. The solubility of potassium iodide
Oksanka [162]

Answer:

Specific gravity of the saturated solution is 2

Explanation:

The specific gravity is defined as the ratio between density of a solution (In this case, saturated solution of potassium iodide, KI) and the density of water. Assuming density of water is 1:

Specific gravity  = Density

The density is the ratio between the mass of the solution and its volume.

In 100mL of water, the mass of KI that can be dissolved is:

100mL * (1g KI / 0.7mL) = 143g of KI

That means all the 100g of KI are dissolved (Mass solute)

As the volume of water is 100mL, the mass is 100g (Mass solvent)

The mass of the solution is 100g + 100g = 200g

In a volume of 100mL, the density of the solution is:

200g / 100mL = 2g/mL.

The specific gravity has no units, that means specific gravity of the saturated solution is 2
