A solid mixture weighs 0.6813 g. It contains gallium bromide (GaBr3) and other inert impurities. When the solid mixture was diss

olved in water and treated with excess silver nitrate (AgNO3), 0.368 g of AgBr was precipitate. A balanced chemical equation describing the reaction is provided below. GaBr3(aq) + 3 AgNO3(aq) ⟶ 3 AgBr(s) + Ga(NO3)3(aq) What is the percent of mass of GaBr3 in the solid mixture?

Answer:

The percent of mass of GaBr₃ in the solid mixture is 30.2 %.

Explanation:

GaBr₃(aq) + 3 AgNO₃(aq) ⟶ 3 AgBr(s) + Ga(NO₃)₃(aq)

MW GaBr₃ = 309.4 g/mol

MW AgBr = 187.8 g/mol

187.8 g AgBr _______ 1 mol

0.368 g AgBr _______    x

x = 2.0 x 10⁻³ mol AgBr

1 mol GaBr₃ ____ 3 mol AgBr

        y          ____ 2.0 x 10⁻³ mol AgBr

y = 6.7 x 10⁻⁴ mol GaBr₃

1 mol GaBr₃ ____________ 309.4 g

6.7 x 10⁻⁴ mol GaBr₃ ______ w

w = 0.206 g GaBr₃

0.6813 g _____ 100%

0.206 g _____ z

z = 30.2 %

Answer:

29.6%

Explanation:

Let's consider the following balanced equation.

GaBr₃(aq) + 3 AgNO₃(aq) ⟶ 3 AgBr(s) + Ga(NO₃)₃(aq)

We can establish the following relations.

  • The molar mass of AgBr is 187.77 g/mol.
  • The molar ratio of AgBr to GaBr₃ is 3:1.
  • The molar mass of GaBr₃ is 309.44 g/mol.

The mass of GaBr₃ that produced 0.368 g of AgBr is:

0.368gAgBr.\frac{1molAgBr}{187.77gAgBr} .\frac{1molGaBr_{3}}{3molAgBr} .\frac{309.44gGaBr_{3}}{1molGaBr_{3}} =0.202gGaBr_{3}

The mass percent of GaBr₃ in the 0.6813 g-sample is:

(0.202g/0.6813g) × 100% = 29.6%

What is the total amount of heat required to completely melt 347 grams of ice at its melting point
jolli1 [7]
In order to calculate the amount of heat energy required to melt 347 grams of ice, we need to will apply the equation:
Q = ml, where m is the mass of substance and l is its latent heat of fusion. For ice, the latent heat of fusion is 334 joules per gram. Therefore:
Q = 347 x 334
Q = 112,558 joules of energy

Answer:

The answer to your question is  molality = 0.61

Explanation:

Freezing point is the temperature at which a liquid turns into a solid if a solute is added to a solution, the freezing point changes.

Data

Kf = 1.86 °C/m

molality = ?

ΔTc = 1.13°C

Formula

ΔTc = kcm

Solve for m

m = ΔTc/kc

Substitution

m = 1.13 / 1.86

Simplification and result

m = 0.61

draw the lewis structure for CO2, H2CO3, HCO3-, and CO3 2-.Rank these in order of increasing attraction to water molecules. Expl
gavmur [86]

Answer:

The structures are attached in file.

Hydrogen bonding and intermolecular forces is the reason for ranks allotted.

Explanation:

In determining Lewis structure, we calculate the overall number of valence electrons available for bonding.  Making carbon (the least electronegative atom) the central atom in the structure, we allocate valence electrons until each atom has achieved stability.

In order of decreasing affinity to water molecules:

CO_{3}^{2-}  > HCO_{3} ^{2-} > H_{2} CO_{3}

This is due to the fact that the CO_{3}^{2-}will accept protons more readily than the bicarbonate ion, HCO_{3} ^{2-}. Carbonic acid, H_{2} CO_{3} will not accept any more protons, hence it is the least attractive to water molecule, even though soluble.

a carbon-12 atom has a mass defect of 0.9564 amu. what is its nuclear binding energy? round to 3 significant figures.
emmasim [6.3K]

Answer:

Explanation:

A carbon-12 atom has a mass defect of 0.09564 amu. What is its nuclear binding energy? Round to 3 significant figures. x 10 J per carbon-12 atom

First use the formula;

1 amu =934 MeV

therefore 0.09564 will have

934 x 934

= 89.3 MeV
