I believe that the saliva interacting with sugar molecules is what allowed Adolfo’s brain to register the extra-sugary flavor of the punch

A sample of cacl2⋅2h2o/k2c2o4⋅h2o solid salt mixture is dissolved in ~150 ml de-ionized h2o. the oven dried precipitate has a ma
Paraphin [41]

We are given that the balanced chemical reaction is:

cacl2⋅2h2o(aq) + k2c2o4⋅h2o(aq) ---> cac2o4⋅h2o(s) + 2kcl(aq) + 2h2o(l)

We known that the product was oven dried, therefore the mass of 0.333 g pertains only to that of the substance cac2o4⋅h2o(s). So what we will do first is to convert this into moles by dividing the mass with the molar mass. The molar mass of cac2o4⋅h2o(s) is molar mass of cac2o4 plus the molar mass of h2o.

molar mass cac2o4⋅h2o(s) = 128.10 + 18 = 146.10 g /mole

moles cac2o4⋅h2o(s) = 0.333 / 146.10 = 2.28 x 10^-3 moles

Looking at the balanced chemical reaction, the ratio of cac2o4⋅h2o(s) and k2c2o4⋅h2o(aq) is 1:1, therefore:

moles k2c2o4⋅h2o(aq) = 2.28 x 10^-3 moles

Converting this to mass:

mass k2c2o4⋅h2o(aq) = 2.28 x 10^-3 moles (184.24 g /mol) = 0.419931006 g

 

Therefore:

The mass of k2c2o4⋅<span>h2o(aq) in the salt mixture is about 0.420 g</span>

An amount of solid barium chloride, 20.8 g, is dissolved in 100 g water in a coffee-cup calorimeter by the reaction: BaCl2 (s) 
mamaluj [8]

Answer : The enthalpy change during the reaction is -6.48 kJ/mole

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the heat gained by the reaction.

q=m\times c\times (T_{final}-T_{initial})

where,

q = heat gained = ?

m = mass of water = 100 g

c = specific heat = 4.04J/g^oC

T_{final} = final temperature = 26.6^oC

T_{initial} = initial temperature = 25.0^oC

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

q=100g\times 4.04J/g^oC\times (26.6-25.0)^oC

q=646.4J

Now we have to calculate the enthalpy change during the reaction.

\Delta H=-\frac{q}{n}

where,

\Delta H = enthalpy change = ?

q = heat gained = 23.4 kJ

n = number of moles barium chloride = \frac{\text{Mass of barium chloride}}{\text{Molar mass of barium chloride}}=\frac{20.8g}{208.23g/mol}=0.0998mole

\Delta H=-\frac{646.4J}{0.0998mole}=-6476.95J/mole=-6.48kJ/mole

Therefore, the enthalpy change during the reaction is -6.48 kJ/mole

Pure platinum is too soft to be used in jewelry because it scratches easily. To increase the hardness so that it can be used in
Zina [86]

Answer:

percentage mass of platinum in the alloy ≈ 90.60 %

Explanation:

The alloy is 8.528 g sample of an alloy containing platinum and cobalt . The alloy react with excess nitric acid to form cobalt(ii) nitrate . Platinum is resistant to acid so it will definitely not react with the acid only the cobalt metal in the alloy will react with the acid.

The chemical reaction can be represented as follows:

Co (s) + HNO₃ (aq) → Co(NO₃)₂ (aq) +  NO₂ (l) + H₂O (l)

The balanced equation

Co (s) + 4HNO₃ (aq) → Co(NO₃)₂(aq) + 2NO₂ (l) + 2H₂O (l)

Cobalt is the limiting reactant

atomic mass of cobalt = 58.933 g/mol

Molar mass of Co(NO₃)₂ = 58.933 + 14 × 2 + 16 × 6 = 58.933 + 28 + 96 = 182.933  g

58.933 g of cobalt produce 182.933  g of  Co(NO₃)₂

? gram of cobalt will produce 2.49 g of Co(NO₃)₂

cross multiply

grams of cobalt that will react = (58.933 × 2.49)/182.933

grams of cobalt that will react = 146.74317000/182.933

grams of cobalt that will react= 0.8021689362 g

grams of cobalt that will react = 0.802 g

mass of platinum in the alloy  = 8.528 g - 0.802 g = 7.726 g

percentage  mass of platinum in the alloy = 7.726/8.528 × 100 = 772.600/8.528 = 90 .595 %

percentage mass of platinum in the alloy ≈ 90.60 %
