Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The mass of
Concept introduction:
The density is related to mass and volume as follows:
Here, m is mass and V is volume.
The following conversions are used:
Convert
(b)
Interpretation:
Whether the process resembles for extracting bromine from seawater or not needs to be explained.
Concept introduction:
For the extraction, the extracting substance must be displaced by some other in the solution. Oxidizing agent is a chemical species that oxidizes others and gets reduced. Thus, a higher oxidizing agent cannot be displaced easily.

- Why does white phosphorus consist of tetrahedral P4 molecules while nitrogen consists of diatomic N2 molecules?arrow_forwardThe amount of sodium hypochlorite in a bleach solution can be determined by using a given volume of bleach to oxidize excess iodide ion to iodine; ClO- is reduced to Cl-. The amount of iodine produced by the redox reaction is determined by titration with sodium thiosulfate, Na2S2O3; I2 is reduced to I-. The sodium thiosulfate is oxidized to sodium tetrathionate, Na2S4O6. In this analysis, potassium iodide was added in excess to 5.00 mL of bleach (d=1.00g/cm3) . If 25.00 mL of 0.0700 M Na2S2O3 was required to reduce all the iodine produced by the bleach back to iodide, what is the mass percent of NaClO in the bleach?arrow_forwardWhat is the molecular structure of each of the following molecules? You may wish to review the chapter on chemical bonding and molecular geometry. (a) XeF2. (b) XeF4. (c) XeO3. (d) XeO4. (e) XeOF4arrow_forward
- Compare the nature of the bonds in PbCl2 to that of the bonds in PbCl4.arrow_forwardWhy is SnCl4 not classified as a salt?arrow_forwardWrite balanced chemical equations for the following reactions: (a) cadmium burned in air. (b) elemental cadmium added to a solution of hydrochloric acid. (c) cadmium hydroxide added to a solution of acetic acid, CH3CO2Harrow_forward
- Which is the stronger acid, HClO4 or HBrO4? Why?arrow_forward4.48 Elemental phosphorous is used in the semiconductor industry. It can be obtained from an ore called fluoroapatite via reaction with SiO2 and C: 4Ca5( PO4)3F+18SiO2+30C3P4+30CO+18CaSiO3+2CaF2 Suppose a particular semiconductor production plant requires 1500 kg of P4. If the recovery of P4 from this reaction is 73% efficient, what mass of fluoroapatite is needed?arrow_forwardSodium perchlorate, NaClO4, is produced by electrolysis of sodium chlorate, NaClO3. If a current of 2.50 103 A passes through an electrolytic cell, how many kilograms of sodium perchlorate are produced per hour?arrow_forward
