Some salts make hydrates when there is moisture around. Some hydrate samples can absorb lights in visible legion. Therefore, they show some colors. Thus, hydrates can be used to detect the moisture in the environment. Let's say you are working in a laboratory with a group and you are the only student who has taken chemistry courses. Your laboratory received a sample of cobaltçii) chloride which has the formula Cocl2-XH20. Let's say your boss asked you to find the formula of this hydrate salt sample since you are the only chemist there. From your laboratory experience, simply explain the experimental procedure you would follow to find the formula of this unknown sample. Then, use the given data for the calculation part. Mass of crucible: 32.27g Mass of crucible + unknown hydrate: 33.92 g Color of unknown hydrate: purple Mass of crucible + anhydrous form of hydrate: 33.41 g Color of anhydrous form: sky blue

A platinum-containing compound, known as Magnuss green salt, has the formula [Pt(NH3)4][PtCl4] (in which both platinum ions are Pt2+). Name the cation and the anion.
The first laboratory experiments to produce compounds containing noble gas atoms aroused great excitement, not because the compounds might be useful but because they demonstrated that the noble gases were not completely inert. Since that time, however, important uses have been found for a number of noble gas compounds. For example, xenon difluoride, XeF2, is an excellent fluorinating agent (a substance that adds fluorine atoms to other substances). One reason it is preferred over certain other fluorinating agents is that the products of its fluorinating reactions are easily separated from the gaseous xenon. The following unbalanced equation represents one such reaction: S3O9 + XeF2 → S2O6F2 + Xe Balance this equation. What is the minimum number of moles of XeF2 necessary to react with 4 moles of S3O9? What is the maximum number of moles of S2O6F2 that can form from the complete reaction of 4 moles of S3O9 and 7 moles of XeF2? How many moles of xenon gas form from the complete…

You are spending the summer working for a chemical company. Your boss has asked you to determine where a chlorine ion of effective charge -e would situate itself near a carbon dioxide ion. The carbon dioxide ion is composed of 2 oxygen ions each with an effective charge -2e and a carbon ion with an effective charge +3e. These ions are arranged in a line with the carbon ion sandwiched midway between the two oxygen ions. The distance between each oxygen ion and the carbon ion is 3.0 x 10-11 m. Assuming that the chlorine ion is on a line that is perpendicular to the axis of the carbon dioxide ion and that the line goes through the carbon ion, what is the equilibrium distance for the chlorine ion relative to the carbon ion on this line? For simplicity, you assume that the carbon dioxide ion does not deform in the presence of the chlorine ion. Looking in your trusty physics textbook, you find the charge of the electron is 1.60 x 10-19 C.
Metals can be rolled into sheets and stamped into various forms. In contrast, diamond is very hard and brittle. Which explanation for these different properties is correct? Metals have semi-ionic bonds, whereas diamond has covalent bonds. The electrons of a metal are held more tightly to the parent atom than the electrons of carbon. Hence, the bonds in a metal are stronger than the bonds in diamond. Metals are made of metal atoms, whereas diamond is made of non-metal carbon atoms. The electrons that surround a metal atom are free to move through the metal. The bonding electron pairs in a diamond are held tightly between two carbon atoms in an overall tetrahedral pattern. Diamond has strong double bonds between carbon atoms. Metal bonds are normally single covalent bonds, which bend easily.

Here is a list of five compounds: MX, M,X, MX, M,X, and MX3. M represents a metal ion, but not necessarily the same. Depending on the salt, M could stand for Na, K X represents an anion, but not necessarily the same. Depending on the salt, X could stand for cI, Br, so, 2+ .... ... In other words, the nature of the cation and the anion in each salt is rather unimportant, only the cation to anion ratio matters. All five compounds have the same K, sp' Select all compounds that have the lowest solubility (in mol/L). Select one or more: a. MX, b. M,X C. Because all five substances have the same K they also have the same solubility in mol/L. d. MX e. Because all five substances have the same K they also have the same solubility in g/100g water. sp' Of.MX, g. Cannot be answered without knowing the numerical value for K h. M,X
