Greetings!

To determine the number of atoms present in 80.45 grams of magnesium, we require Avogadro's number and the weight of a single mole of magnesium.

Avogadro's number is 6.02 x 10^23 atoms, and the mass of one mole of magnesium is 24.31 grams.

1. First, divide by the weight of one mole of magnesium

80.45 / 24.31 ≈ 3.309 moles (rounded to appropriate significant figures)

2. Multiply the number of moles by Avogadro's number

3.309 x (6.02 x 10^23) ≈ 1.99 x 10^24 (rounded to appropriate significant figures)

Thus, in 80.45 grams of magnesium, there are approximately 1.99 x 10^24 atoms.

Why are salt and sugar both able to dissolve in water, even though the solutes have different types of chemical bonding?
castortr0y [3046]

Response: Water is a polar substance, facilitating the dissolution of ionic compounds due to the principle that similar types mix.

Ionic interactions occur between salt and water

Sugar contains hydroxyl groups that can form hydrogen bonds with water molecules.

[Hydrogen bond: this refers to the attraction between a hydrogen atom bonded to a highly electronegative atom (like F, O, or N) and another highly electronegative atom (F, O, or N)]

Thus, due to the presence of hydrogen bonds, sugar dissolves in water.

Clarification: Water molecules are polar, exhibiting partial positive charges on the hydrogen atoms and a partial negative charge on the oxygen atom. This allows them to interact with ionic compounds such as salt (NaCl). These interactions occur through the partial charges on water, which attract opposite charges. When dissolved in water, NaCl dissociates into sodium and chloride ions; sodium ions are surrounded by negatively charged oxygen from water, while chloride ions are surrounded by positively charged hydrogens from water. As a result, salt dissolves in water.

Sugar, being a covalent compound, has bonds where electrons are shared unevenly, creating slight positive and negative charges. This characteristic allows sugar to interact with the polar ends of water, facilitating its dissolution. Therefore, it can be stated that sugar dissolves in water due to both substances being polar.

In summary, water is capable of dissolving most polar or ionic substances, as seen with sugar and salt.

Suppose that a certain fortunate person has a net worth of $77.0 billion ($). If her stock has a good year and gains $3.20 billi
VMariaS [2998]

Answer:

The revised net worth rounded to three significant figures is $80.2 billion.

The donation to charity amounts to $100,250,000.

Explanation:

Initial net worth is $77.0 billion.

Stock gains are $3.20 billion.

Calculating new net worth: $77.0 billion + $3.20 billion = $80.20 billion.

Hence, new net worth to three significant figures is $80.2 billion.

One-eighth of a percent is calculated as (1/8 x 1) / 100 = 0.00125.

The charitable contribution amounts to 0.00125 X $80.2 billion = $100,250,000.

Alternatively, $80,200,000,000 divided by 100 results in $802,000,000.

A 25.0 g sample of an alloy was heated to 100.0 oC and dropped into a beaker containing 90 grams of water at 25.32 oC. The tempe
KiRa [2933]

Response:

The specific heat of the alloy C_{a} = 0.37 \frac{KJ}{Kg K}

Clarification:

Weight of the alloy m_{a} = 25 gm

Initial temperature T_{a} = 100°c = 373 K

Weight of the water m_{w} = 90 gm

Initial temperature of water T_{w} = 25.32 °c = 298.32 K

Final temperature T_{f} = 27.18 °c = 300.18 K

Using the energy balance equation,

Heat released by the alloy = Heat absorbed by the water

m_{a} C_{a} [[T_{a} - T_{f}] = m_{w} C_w (T_{f} -T_{w} )

25 × C_{a} × ( 373 - 300.18 ) = 90 × 4.2 (300.18 - 298.32)

C_{a} = 0.37 \frac{KJ}{Kg K}

This gives us the specific heat of the alloy.

A mass of 5.4 grams of aluminum (al) reacts with an excess of copper (ii) chloride (cucl2) in solution, as shown below. 3cucl2 2
eduard [2782]

Answer:

The mass of copper generated is 19.07g

Explanation:

Let's write out the chemical equation;

3CuCl2 + 2Al → 2AlCl3 + 3Cu

3:   2:   2: 3

After confirming that the reaction is balanced, we can continue.

The problem asks for the mass of Cu produced from 5.4g of Al reacting.

Based on the equation, what is the relation between Al and Cu?

2 moles of Al would yield 3 moles of Cu

Expressing this in mass terms, we find;

mass = number of moles * molar mass

Mass of Aluminium = 2 * 26.98 = 53.98 g

Mass of Copper = 3 * 63.546 = 190.638g

This indicates that;

53.98 g of Al would react to create 190.638g of Cu

So, how much Cu would result from 5.4 g of Al?

This leads us to;

53.98 = 190.638

5.4 = x

By cross multiplication, we determine;

x = (190.638 * 5.4) / 53.98

x = 19.07 g

The mass of copper created is 19.07g
