A formula unit is the same as the empirical formula of a compound or an ionic molecule. It is the lowest ratio of the atoms in the compound or ion. Zinc acetate ions dissociates into zinc ions and acetate ions. The dissociation reaction is expressed as follows:
Zn(O2CCH3)2 = Zn2+ + 2(O2CCH3)1-
We determine the amount of acetate ions produced as follows:
Moles Zn(O2CCH3)2 = (3 formula units Zn(O2CCH3)2) ( 1 mol / 6.022x10^23 formula units) = 4.98x10^-24 mol Zn(O2CCH3)2
moles (O2CCH3)1- = 4.98x10^-24 mol Zn(O2CCH3)2 ( 2 mol (O2CCH3)1- / 1 mol Zn(O2CCH3)2 ) = 9.96x10^-24 mol (O2CCH3)1-
# of acetate ions = 9.96x10^-24 mol (O2CCH3)1- ( 6.022x10^23 ions / 1 mol (O2CCH3)1-) = 6 acetate ions
Answer:
4.33 L
Explanation:
Assuming ideal behaviour and that all 0.300 moles of gas reacted, we can solve this problem using Avogadro's law, which states that at constant temperature and pressure:
Where in this case:
We <u>input the given data</u>:
- 2.16 L * 0.601 mol = V₂ * 0.300 mol
And <u>solve for V₂</u>:
Answer:
Choice B
They are polar climates because they are dry
and cold
