Metal X is soft and can be cut with a knife. It reacts vigorously with air and water. Identify metal X-

iron
copper
Sodium
gold

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The metal is most likely Sodium.

Explanation:

Iron is not soft enough to be cut with a knife and will not react violently with water.  When Iron reacts with water it just slowly rusts.

Copper is somewhat malleable, however, does not really react with water and only forms an oxide layer in the air.

Sodium is soft enough to be cut with a knife (I know this because I have worked with it and seen people work with it).  It is also an alkali metal which are known to explode when in water.

Gold is malleable but does not really react with anything and is considered inert.

a lizard drinks water that contains H-2. The H-2 decays and approximately 6.25% remain after 30 seconds. What is the 1/2 life for H-2?​

Answers

Answer:

7.5 sec.

Explanation:

A = A₀e⁻^kt => k = ln(A/A₀)/-t => ln(6.25/100)/-30s = 0.0924 s⁻¹

k·t₀.₅=0.693 => t₀.₅=0.693/k = (0.693/0.0924)s = 7.5 s

The half life of an isotope can be calculated from the decay constant of . The half life of H-2 if only 6.25 % remains after 30 seconds is 17.25 seconds.  

What is half life?

Unstable radioactive isotopes undergo nuclear decay by emitting charged particles such as alpha particles or beta particles. The nuclear decay process results in a stable isotope or new atom.

It is given that the final amount of the isotope is 6.25% and and the time taken for the decay is 30 seconds. Let the initial amount be 100%.

The decay constant k can be calculated as follows:

k = 1/t log (100/6.25)

  =  1/30 s log 16

  = 0.0401 s⁻¹

   

Now, the half life time can be determined as below:

half life t1/2 = 0.693 /k

                   = 0.693 /0.0401 s⁻¹

                   = 17.25 seconds.

Hence, the half life time of the given H-2 isotope is 17.25 seconds.

How many grams of NO2 are needed to form 88.0 g of HNO3?

Answers

Answer:

64.4g

Explanation:

The chemical reaction that will produce HNO₃ from NO₂ is given below:

        3NO₂  +  H₂O →  2HNO₃  + NO

Given;

Mass of HNO₃  = 88g

  Now;

To solve this problem, find the number of moles of HNO₃;

  Number of moles  = [tex]\frac{mass}{molar mass}[/tex]  

      Molar mass of HNO₃ = 1 + 14 + 3(16) = 63g/mol

 Number of moles  = [tex]\frac{88}{63}[/tex]   = 1.40mol

From the balanced reaction;

    2 mole of HNO₃ is produced from 3 mole of NO₂

   1.4 mole of HNO₃ will be produced from [tex]\frac{1.4 x 3} {2}[/tex]   = 2.1mole of NO₂  

Mass of NO₂ = number of moles x molar mass

  Molar mass of NO₂ = 14 + 2(16) = 46g/mol

  Mass of NO₂ = 1.4 x 46  = 64.4g

Write the balanced equation for the reaction that occurs when aluminum bromide is mixed with potassium sulfate forming potassium bromide and aluminum sulfate

Answers

Answer:

  2AlBr₃  +  3K₂SO₄ →   6KBr  +  Al₂(SO₄)₃

Explanation:

Given species;

  Reactants

    Aluminum bromide  = AlBr₃

    Potassium sulfate = K₂SO₄

Products

    Potassium bromide  = KBr

    Aluminum sulfate = Al₂(SO₄)₃

 So, the reaction equation is given as:

          AlBr₃  +  K₂SO₄ →   KBr  + Al₂(SO₄)₃

To balance this chemical equation, let us an algebraic approach;

        aAlBr₃  +  bK₂SO₄ →   cKBr  +  dAl₂(SO₄)₃

Conserving Al;

        a  = 2d

   Conserving Br;

        3a  = c

   Conserving K;

       2b  = c

     Conserving S;

       b  = 3d

     Conserving O;

      4b  = 12d

    if a  = 1;

        c = 3

       b = [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex]

        d  = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]  

 Now, multiply through by 2;

  a  = 2, b  = 3, c = 6 and d = 1

      2AlBr₃  +  3K₂SO₄ →   6KBr  +  Al₂(SO₄)₃

What is the oxidation number of vanadium in V₂O₅?

Answers

Answer:

+4

Explanation:

Treatment of the ammonium metavanadate with hot hydrochloric acid partly reduces the vanadium to the +4 oxidation state in the form of the VO2+ ion.

In vanadium oxide we increase both sides by 4. And we discover that x is equal to five. The vanadium's oxidation number is + 5.

What is oxidation ?

Loss of electron is called as oxidation. and addition of oxygen molecule is also the oxidation.

When an object comes into touch with oxygen or another oxidizer, a chemical reaction occurs. Rust and the brown color of a sliced apple are both examples of oxidation.

Antoine Lavoisier used the term "oxidation" to describe the reaction of a material with oxygen. The meaning was later expanded to cover additional reactions in which electrons are lost, regardless of whether oxygen was present, after it was realized that the substance loses electrons when it is oxidized.

Thus,  the oxidation number of vanadium in V₂O₅ is + 5.

A sample of 0.300 moles of nitrogen occupies 0.600 L. Under the same conditions, what number of moles occupies 1.200L

Answers

Answer:

0.600 moles has volume 1.200L

Explanation:

The volume is numerically double the moles

0.600 mol occupies 1.200L

Mathematically:

V1/moles1 = V2/moles2

1.200L / moles1 = 0.600L/ 0.300mol

Moles 0.600L = 1.200L * 0.300mol

Moles = 1.2000L *0.300 mol / 0.600L

moles = 0.600 moles.


You added 20 g of NaCl to 100g of water. What is the percent by mass of the solute? (Hint: You have not been given the total mass of the solution. This must be calculated

Answers

We are given:

Mass of solvent (water) = 100 grams

Mass of solute (NaCl) = 20 grams

Mass of the Solution:

Mass of Solution = Mass of Solute + mass of Solvent

100 + 20 = 120 grams

Mass Percent of NaCl:

We know that

mass percent of NaCl = (Mass of NaCl / Mass of Solution) * 100

replacing the variables

Mass% of NaCl = (20 / 120)*100

Mass% of NaCl = 100 / 6

Mass% of NaCl = 16.67%

Consider separate solutions of NaOH and KClmade by dissolving 100.0 g of each solute in 250.0 mL of solution. Calculate the concentration of each solution in units of molarity.

Answers

Answer:

Explanation:

MW of NaOH = 40 g/mol

MW of KCl = 74.55 g/mp;

250 mL = .25 L

100g NaOH / 40 g = 25 mol

100g KCl/ 74.55g = 1.34 mol

Molarity of NaOH: 25/.25 = 100M

Molarity of KCl: 1.34/.25 = 5.36 M

100M is the concentration of NaOH.

5.36 M is the concentration of  KCl.

Define the molarity of a solution.

Molarity (M) is the amount of a substance in a certain volume of solution. Molarity is defined as the moles of a solute per litres of a solution.

The scientific noun molarity describes the concentration of a substance as measured by the number of moles divided by the volume of the solution in litres.

[tex]Molality = \frac{Moles \;solute}{Volume\; of \;the \;solution \;in \;litres}[/tex]

Molecular weight of NaOH = 40 g/mol

Molecular weight of KCl = 74.55 g/mp;

250 mL = .25 L

100g NaOH ÷ 40 g = 25 mol

100g KCl ÷ 74.55g = 1.34 mol

Molarity of NaOH: 25 ÷ .25 = 100M

Molarity of KCl: 1.34 ÷ .25 = 5.36 M

In the reaction 2 Na(s) + F2(g) --> 2NaF (s), Given 12.5 g of fluorine with enough sodium, what mass of sodium fluoride forms?

Answers

Answer:

the mass of sodium fluoride is 15

Explanation:

One mole of F₂ or 38 g produces two moles or 84 g of NaF. Hence, 12.5 g of F₂ will produce 27.6 g of NaF.

What is sodium fluoride?

Sodium fluoride is an ionic compound formed by the reaction of sodium metal and fluorine atom . Sodium metal loses one electron to fluorine and thus two moles of sodium and fluorine molecule produces 2 moles of NaF.

The molar mass of F₂ is 38 g. The molar mass of NaF is 42 g/mol. Thus mass of two moles of NaF is 84 grams. As per the balanced reaction, one mole or 38 g of F₂ produces two moles or 84 g of NaF. Thus mass of NaF is calculated as follows:

Mass of NaF = (12.5 g × 84 g) /38 g.

                     = 27.6 g.

Therefore, the mass of NaF produced by 12.5 g of F₂ in this reaction is 27.6 grams.

An element has a half-life of 5.0 days. How many days would
pass before only 1/8th of the original amount of a sample of this
element remained?

Answers

Answer:

15 days

Explanation:

Given half-life = 5 days => k = 0.693/half-life = 0.693/5 days⁻¹

A = A₀e^-k·t => t = ln(A/A₀) / -k = ln(1/8) / -0.1386 days⁻¹ =  15 days

The element with half life of 5 days have the decay constant of 0.1386 dy⁻¹ will take 15 days to decay to its 1/8th part of initial amount.

What is half life ?

Heavy unstable radioactive isotopes undergo nuclear decay by the emission of charged particles. Nuclear decay is a first order reaction.

Thus, the decay constant k  = 1/t ln W0/Wt

where t is the time of decay, W0 be the initial amount and Wt be the amount after time t.

The half life of the element = 5 days.

decay constant = 0.693/t1/2

k = 0.693/5 days =  0.1386 days⁻¹.

The time taken to decay to 1/8th of its original amount is calculated as follows:

t = 1/k  ln Wo/(Wo/8 )

 = ln 8/0.1386 days⁻¹

 = 15 days.

Therefore, the days before the element decay to its 1/8th of original amount is 15 days.

Rank the following salts in order of increasing lattice energy: lithium chloride, calcium oxide, aluminum oxide, sodium chloride, barium oxide.

Please explain! Thank you.

Answers

Answer:

 barium oxide < calcium oxide<  sodium chloride <   lithium chloride < aluminum oxide

Explanation:

The lattice energy can be defined as the change in internal energy accompanying the formation of a single mole of an ionic solid from its gaseous constituents at 0 K.

The lattice energy depends on the relative sizes of cations and anions in the compound. The smaller the cations and anions, the greater the lattice energy.

If we look as the proposed order of increasing lattice energy of the compounds;  barium oxide < calcium oxide<  sodium chloride <   lithium chloride < aluminum oxide, we will notice that it follows the order of decrease in the sizes of both the ions, Ba^2+ > Ca^2+ > Na+ >Li+ > Al^3+.

The smaller the ions involved, the greater the lattice energy as one can see from the order listed above.

Barium oxide < calcium oxide<  sodium chloride <   lithium chloride < aluminum oxide is the rank of salts in the increasing order of their lattice energy.

What is lattice energy?

Lattice energy is define as the amount of internal energy required for the formation of one mole of ionic compound by its constitute ions.

Lattice energy is inversely proportional to the size of ions present in the ionic compound. In the given question order of size of ions are:

Ba²⁺ > Ca²⁺ > Na⁺ > Li⁺ > Al³⁺

From the above order it is clear that size of aluminum ion is smallest, so lattice energy for this ionic compound is more and sequence of salts in the increasing order of lattice energy is as follow:

barium oxide < calcium oxide<  sodium chloride <   lithium chloride < aluminum oxide

Hence, Aluminum oxide has highest lattice energy and barium oxide has minimum.
