Answer:
A.
Explanation:
Water was added to the reaction after the completion of the reaction so as to lower the solubility if the product in the solution therefore, the product can be precipitated out. On adding water the reaction moves in forward direction and more product is formed. (By Le Chatelier's principle). Thus, the precipitation occurs. Hence, option A is correct.
The question is incomplete, the complete question is:
Which statements are consistent with Dalton's atomic theory as it was originally stated? Why?
a. Sulfur and oxygen atoms have the same mass.
b. All cobalt atoms are identical.
c. Potassium and chlorine atoms combine in a 1:1 ratio to form potassium chloride.
d. Lead atoms can be converted into gold.
<u>Answer: </u>The correct options are b) and c).
<u>Explanation:</u>
Some of the postulates of Dalton's atomic theory are:
- All matter is made of very tiny particles called atoms that participate in chemical reactions
- Atoms are indivisible particles that cannot be created or destroyed in a chemical reaction
- Atoms of a given element are identical in mass and chemical properties
- Atoms of different elements have different masses and chemical properties.
- Atoms combine in the ratio of small whole numbers to form compounds.
- The relative number and kinds of atoms are constant in a given compound.
For the given options:
<u>For a:</u>
The statement is inconsistent with the theory as no two elements can have the same mass. Only atoms of the same element can have the same mass.
This is consistent with the theory as atoms of the same element are identical.
This is consistent with the theory as atoms combine in a simple whole number ratio.
The statement is inconsistent with the theory as atoms of one element cannot be changed to atoms of other element.
Hence, the correct options are b) and c).
D. To answer this question refer to the periodic table and think logically about it. Adding one proton increases the atomic number so you go along the row to Nitrogen. If you lose one neutron then the atomic mass decreases by 1 so 14-1 is 13.
Answer : The percent composition of Pb and Sn in atom is, 3.21 % and 96.8 % respectively.
Explanation :
First we have to calculate the number of atoms in 5.5 wt% Pb and 94.5 wt% of Sn.
As, 207.2 g of lead contains atoms
So, 5.5 g of lead contains atoms
and,
As, 118.71 g of lead contains atoms
So, 94.5 g of lead contains atoms
Now we have to calculate the percent composition of Pb and Sn in atom.
and,
Thus, the percent composition of Pb and Sn in atom is, 3.21 % and 96.8 % respectively.
