Calcium carbonate has the formula: CaCO3
From the periodic table:
mass of calcium = 40 grams
mass of carbon = 12 grams
mass of oxygen = 16 grams
Therefore,
molar mass of CaCO3 = 40 + 12 + 3(16) = 100 grams
molar mass of carbonate = 12 + 3(16) = 60 grams

One mole of calcium carbonate contains one mole of carbonate. Therefore, 100 grams of CaCO3 contains 60 grams of CO3.
If the 0.5376 grams of the unknown substance is CaCO3, then the amount of carbonate will be:
amount of carbonate = (0.5376*60) / 100 = 0.32256 grams

Based on the above calculations, the sample is not CaCO3

Calculate the moles of camphor dissolved in 1.32 L of phenol. The molar mass of camphor is 152 g/mol and the molarity of phenol
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer:

moles of camphor = 0.0522 moles

Explanation:

<u>Data:</u>

MW camphor= 152 g/mol

V solution = 1.32 L

M solution = 6.01 M

moles solute = ?

  • To calculate the moles of camphor, you must first know the grams of solute (camphor) that exist in the solution, this is calculated from the molarity equation:

M=\frac{solute mass}{solution volume}

  • From there the grams of the solute (camphor) are cleared:

solutemass=M*solutionvolume=6.01M*1.32L=7.9332g

  • Then by means of the molecular weight (MW) equation the moles can be obtained:

MW=\frac{mass}{moles}

moles=\frac{mass}{MW} =\frac{7.9332g}{152\frac{g}{mol} } =0.0522 moles

It take 38.70cm³ of 1.90m NaoH to neutralize 10.30cm³ of H2so4 in a battery, calculate the molar concentration of H2so4
zlopas [31]

Answer:

M_{acid}=3.57M

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, since this acid-base neutralization is performed in a 1:2 mole ratio of acid to base as the former is a diprotic acid (two hydrogen ions in the molecule), we can write the following equation:

2M_{acid}V_{acid}=M_{base}V_{base}

In such a way, we can solve for the molarity of the acid, given the molarity and concentration of the NaOH base and the volume of the acid:

M_{acid}=\frac{M_{base}V_{base}}{2V_{acid}}

Thus, we plug in the given data to obtain:

M_{acid}=\frac{38.70cm^3*1.90M}{2(10.30cm^3)} \\\\M_{acid}=3.57M

Best regards!

The table above summarizes data given to a student to evaluate the type of change that took place when substance X was mixed wit
Tamiku [17]

The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

The table above summarizes data given to a student to evaluate the type of change that took place when substance X was mixed with water. The student claimed that the data did not provide enough evidence to determine whether a chemical or physical change took place and that additional tests were needed. Which of the following identifies the best way to gather evidence to support the type of change that occurred when water and Xwere mixed?

A. Measuring the melting point of the mixture of water and X

B. Adding another substance to the mixture of water and X to see whether a solid forms

C Measuring and comparing the masses of the water,  X, and the mixture of water and X

D Measuring the electrical conductivities of X and the mixture of water and X

Answer:

D Measuring the electrical conductivities of X and the mixture of water and X

Explanation:

Unfortunately, I am unable to reproduce the table here. However, from the table,  the temperature of the of the mixture of the solid X and water was 101.6°C. This is above the boiling point of water and way below the temperature of the solid X.

This goes a long way to suggest that there was some kind of interaction between the water and X which accounted for the observed temperature of the system of X in water.

The only way we can be able to confirm if X actually dissolved in water is to measure the conductivity of the water. dissolved solids increase the conductivity of water.
