A chemist mixes solid AgCl, CuCl2, and MgCl2 in enough water to give a final volume of 50.0 mL.

(a) With ions shown as spheres and solvent molecules omitted for clarity, which of the following best represents the resulting mixture?

(b) If each sphere represents 5.0x10-3mol of ions, what is the total concentration of dissolved(separated) ions?

(c) What is the total mass of solid?

Short Answer

Expert verified

a. Figure A represents the resulting mixture.

b. The concentration of the ions which are dissolved is 1.2 M.

c. The total mass of the solid is 2.9 g.

Step by step solution

01

(a) Determination of resulting mixture

In figure A, solid AgCl is formed and the remaining ions are Cu2+, Cl-, and Mg2+.

In figure B, solid MgCl2 is formed and the remaining ions are Cu2+ and Cl-.

In figure C, solid CuCl2 is formed and the remaining ions are Ag+, Cl-, and Mg2+.

In figure D, solid CuCl2 is formed and the remaining ions are Cl-, and Mg2+.

According to the solubility rules, AgCl is insoluble and MgCl2 and CuCl2 are soluble. SO, in the mixture, AgCl should be insoluble and MgCl2 and CuCl2 should be present in the form of ions.

Thus, figure A represents the resulting mixture.

02

(b) Determination of total concentration of ions

In figure A, there are 12 spheres. It means that each sphere consist of 5.0x10-3mol of ions.

Total number of moles of ions are,

5.0×10-3mol1sphere×12spheres=0.060moles

Now, the concentration of the ions is,

Concentration=numberofmolesVolumeinL=0.060mol0.05L=1.2M

Thus, the concentration of the ions which are dissolved is 1.2 M.

03

(c) Determination of mass of solid

In figure A, there are 4 spheres of Ag. The mass of solid AgCl is,

4Agspheres×5.0×10-3molAg1sphere×1molAgCI1molAg×143.4gAgCI1molAgCI=2.9gAgCI

Thus, the total mass of the solid is 2.9 g.

Question: The amount of ascorbic acid (vitamin C; C6H8O6) in tablets is determined by reaction with bromine and then titration of the hydrobromic acid with standard base:

C6H8O6+Br2→C6H6O6+2HBrHBr+NaOH→NaBr+H2O

A certain tablet is advertised as containing 500 mg of vitamin C. One tablet was dissolved in water and reacted with Br2. The solution was then titrated with 43.20 mL of 0.1350 MNaOH. Did the tablet contain the advertised quantity of vitamin C?

Question: State a general equation for a neutralization reaction.

Thyroxine (C15H11I4NO4) is a hormone synthesized by the thyroid gland and used to control many metabolic functions in the body. A physiologist determines the mass percent of thyroxine in a thyroid extract by igniting 0.4332 g of extract with sodium carbonate, which converts the iodine to iodide. The iodide is dissolved in water, and bromine and hydrochloric acid are added, which convert the iodide to iodate.

(a) How many moles of iodate form per mole of thyroxine?

(b) Excess bromine is boiled off and more iodide is added, which reacts as shown in the following unbalancedequation:

IO3-(aq)+H+(aq)+I-(aq)→I2(aq)+H2O(I)

How many moles of iodine are produced per mole of thyroxine?

(Hint:Be sure to balance the charges as well as the atoms.) What are the oxidizing and reducing agents in the reaction?

(c) The iodine reacts completely with 17.23 mL of 0.1000 Mthiosulfate as shown in the following unbalancedequation:

I2(aq)+S2O32-(aq)→I-(aq)+S4O62-(aq)

What is the mass percent of thyroxine in the thyroid extract?

How many total moles of ions are released when each of the following samples dissolves completely in water?

(a) 0.734 mol of Na2HPO4

(b) 3.86 g of CuSO4.5H2O

(c) 8.66×1020formula units of localid="1656604875395" NiCl2

Complete the following precipitation reactions with balanced molecular, total ionic, and net ionic equations:

(a)Hg2(NO3)2(aq)+KI(aq)→(b)FeSO4(aq)+Sr(OH)2(aq)→
