Question
Solid copper(II) chloride forms a hydrate of formula CuCl2 ⋅ xH2O. A student heated a sample of hydrated copper(II) chloride, in order to determine the value of x. The following results were obtained:
mass of crucible = 16.221 g
mass of crucible and hydrated copper(II) chloride = 18.360 g
mass of crucible and anhydrous copper(II) chloride = 17.917 g
At. Mass: Cu 63.55 Cl 35.45 H 1.008 O 16.00
1. Calculate the number of moles of anhydrous copper(II) chloride (answer must be expressed to 5 decimal places)

- 5) King Krator the Merciless has called on Pogo, a humble goldsmith, to make a crown for theKing. He gives Pogo exactly 14 oz of pure gold to fashion the crown and tells him that if hecheats the King, he will pay with his life ! Pogo leaves with the gold; he and his apprenticesspend two weeks in making the crown; finally he returns to the court. When Pogo returns withthe crown, King Krator finds that the crown weighs 397.25 grams, and has a volume of20.58cm3. King Krator asks the court wizard for the density of gold, and Wizard tells the Kingthat gold has a density of 19.3 times that of an equal volume of spring rain. Krator demands aslate, makes a few calculations, then sternly lifts his head to stare at Pogo.

- Oil Ethanol and Water Water A student combines equal volumes of ethanol and water in a beaker and stirs the mixture. The student repeats this process but with equal volumes of oil and water in a different beaker. The student observes the contents of the beakers after they are mixed, as shown in the diagram. Which TWO of the following statements are consistent with the student's observations? Ethanol molecules and water molecules are both polar, so they mix well with each other. Ethanol molecules are nonpolar and water molecules are polar, so they mix well with each other. Oil molecules and water molecules are both polar, so they do not mix well with each other. D Oil molecules are nonpolar and water molecules are polar, so they do not mix well with each other.arrow_forwardCH,2, Zn(Cu) Et,0 CH,l,, Zn(Cu) Et,0arrow_forwardA test of an automobile engine exhaust revealed that 3.7g of NO2 was emitted in 10 minutes of operation.

- If you purchase 1 bottle of 120 tablets of 650. mg sodium bicarbonate in the pharmacy aisle (the cheapest I found was $4.99), you are paying a significant amount of money for the bottling, capsuling and mark-up. You can purchase for $28.99 at www.amazon.com 30.0 pounds of sodium bicarbonate. How many bottles of tablets can you make out of the 30.0 lbs of NaHCO3 if you already have the capsules, labeling and bottles? If you are able to sell each bottle for $4.99 , once subtracting the $28.99 for the cost of the sodium bicarb, what is the gross profit before other bills?arrow_forwardWhich of the following statements is FALSE?

Its decomposition may be represented by 4C H;N3O9 6N2 + 12CO, +10H,0 02 This reaction generates a large amount of heat and gaseous products. It is the sudden formation of these gases, together with their rapid expansion, that produces the explosion.
