What commercially available compound is used to generate cl2?

Chemistry

Hello!

The commercially available compound that is used to generate Cl₂ is Sodium Hypochlorite

<h2>Why?</h2>

Sodium Hypochlorite is present in commercial bleach. Its chemical formula is NaClO.

Sodium Hypochlorite can react with acids (which can be present in vinegar, glass and window cleaners, drain cleaners or lime, calcium and rust removal products) to form Chlorine gas as shown by the following reaction (for a generic acid HA)

NaClO(aq) + HA(aq) → H₂O(aq) + Cl₂(g) + NaA(aq)

Chlorine gas is very toxic, so bleach should never be mixed with anything but water.

Have a nice day!

<span>Bleach and ammonia can be used to make cl2. Bleach is commercially available and so people should be very careful during these experiments or even when mixing things in the household.</span>

<u>Given:</u>

Mass of calcium nitrate (Ca(NO3)2) = 96.1 g

<u>To determine:</u>

Theoretical yield of calcium phosphate, Ca3(PO4)2

<u>Explanation:</u>

Balanced Chemical reaction-

3Ca(NO3)2 + 2Na3PO4 → 6NaNO3 + Ca3(PO4)2

Based on the reaction stoichiometry:

3 moles of Ca(NO3)2 produces 1 mole of Ca3(PO4)2

Now,

Given mass of Ca(NO3)2 =  96.1 g

Molar mass of Ca(NO3)2 =  164 g/mol

# moles of ca(NO3)2 = 96.1/164 = 0.5859 moles

Therefore, # moles of Ca3(PO4)2 produced = 0.0589 * 1/3 = 0.0196 moles

Molar mass of Ca3(PO4)2 = 310 g/mol

Mass of Ca3(PO4)2 produced = 0.0196 * 310 = 6.076 g

Ans: Theoretical yield of Ca3(PO4)2 = 6.08 g

The common constituent in all acid solutions is
Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

H+/H3O , H2O

Explanation:

The ability to be a proton donor is the Bronsted-Lowry definition of acids. The Lewis definition of an acid is an electron pair acceptor, which covers molecules liKE BF3

The ability to accept a pair of electrons is what is common to all acids, not the ability to be a proton donor.

All acid solutions contain hydronium ions (H3O+), hydroxide ions (OH-) and water molecules. Each different acid solution will then have an anion that is exclusive to that acid. For example, hydrochloric acid solution will contain all of the above and chloride ions (Cl-).

All acids contain the acidic substance dissolved in water. Water naturally dissociates to a small amount, creating hydronium and hydroxide ions. But most of the water remains as water molecules.

Then when we add an acid, like HCl, the oxygen on the water attracts the hydrogen from the HCl. The electrons in the covalent bond remain with the chlorine, giving it a negative charge and thus it becomes the chloride ion (Cl-). The hydrogen now has a positive charge and as said before, is attracted to the water (specifically the lone pair of electrons on the oxygen) to create hydronium ions.

This creates extra hydronium ions, making the solution acidic. But remember, there are still water molecules, hydroxide ions and the negative ion all in solution for all acids.

OLga [1]

Answer:

Avogadro’s number was calculated by determining the number of atoms in 12.00 g of carbon-12.

Explanation:

The number of particles presents in one mole of a substance is known as Avogadro's number.

Avogadro's number is 6.022\times10^2^3 atoms or molecules or ions or particles present in one mole of a substance. It is denoted by the symbol L or N_A.  It is a dimensionless quantity.

Avogadro's number was proposed by Jean Perrin but named in the honor of italian scientist Amedeo Avogadro.

Avogadro's number is the number of atoms present in 12 grams of carbon-12.
