stich3 [128]

$\qquad\qquad\huge\underline{{\sf Answer}}$

Here we go ~

1 mole of $\sf{ COCl_2}$ has 6.022 × 10²³ molecules of the given compound.

So, 0.78 mole of $\sf{COCl_2}$ will have ~

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \: 0.78 \times 6.022 \times 10 {}^{23}$

$\qquad \sf \dashrightarrow \: \approx4.7 \times 10 {}^{23} \: \: \: molecules$

The solubility of copper chloride at 20 °C is 73 g/100 g of water. Kiera adds 100 g of copper chloride to 100 g of water and sti

OLEGan [10]

Answer:

$m_{undissolved}=27g$

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given information of the solubility of copper chloride, as the maximum amount of this salt one can dissolve without having a precipitate, we infer that since just 73 grams are actually dissolved, the following amount will remain solid as a precipitate:

$m_{undissolved}=100g-73g\\\\m_{undissolved}=27g$
