Explanation / Answer

13)

the first reaction is

2 NaHC03 ---> Na2C03 + H20 + C02

we know that

moles = mass / molar mass

so

moles of NaHC03 taken = 0.652 / 84

moles of NaHC03 taken = 7.76 x 10-3

now

from the first reaction

we can see that

moles of Na2C03 formed = 0.5 x moles of NaHC03 taken

so

moles of Na2C03 = 0.5 x 7.76 x 10-3 = 3.88 x 10-3

now

mass = moles x molar mass

so

mass of Na2C03 = 3.88 x 10-3 x 105.99

mass of Na2C03 = 0.411 g

so

A) 0.411 g Na2C03

14)

now

Na2C03 + 2 HCl ---> 2 NaCl + H20 + C02

we can see that

moles of NaCl = 2 x moles of Na2C03

moles of NaCl = 2 x 3.88 x 10-3 = 7.66 x 10-3

now

mass = moles x molar mass

so

mass of NaCl = 7.66 x 10-3 x 58.44 = 0.44765

so

0.44765 grams of NaCl should be formed

but

given only 0.27 grams is formed

now

% yield = actual x 100 / theoretical

% yield = 0.27 x 100 / 0.44765

% yield = 60.3

so

B) 60 %


15)

BaCL2 ---> Ba+2 + 2Cl-

we can see that

[Cl-] = 2 x [BaCl2]

[Cl-] = 2 x 5.25

[Cl-] = 10.5


D) 10.5 M Cl-


16)

C)


18) given reaction is

CaC03 + heat ---> CaO + C02

it is decomposition reaction

the answer is B

19) we know that

% yield = actual x 100 / theoretical

85 = actual x 100 / 0.25

actual = 0.2125

so

C) 0.21 g


20)

we know that

oxidizing agent undergoes reduction

in the given reaction

nitrogen undergoes reduction

so

HN03 is the oxidizing agent

so

B) HN03 (aq)
