Let us assume that there is a 100g sample of Opal. The masses of each element will be:
29.2g Si
33.3g O
37.5g H2O
Now we divide each constituent's mass by its Mr to get the moles present
Si: (29.2 / 28) = 1.04
O: (33.3 / 16) = 2.08
H2O: (37.5 / 18) = 2.08
Now we divide by the smallest number and obtain:
Si: 1
O: 2
H2O: 2
Thus, the empirical formula of Opal is:
SiO2 . 2H2O
Answer:
a
Explanation:
the answer is a i'm pretty sure it might be wrong tho i'm sorry
There is a special temperature for every substance called the melting point. When a solid reaches the temperature of its melting point, it can become a liquid.
Answer:
The following reaction will occur at cathode:
Explanation:
The two half reaction during electrolysis of aqueous nickel sulfate will be
a) anode reaction :
Water will undergo oxidation and will evolve oxygen gas at anode as shown in the given reaction:
b) Cathode reaction: The reduction of Nickel ion will occur by gain of two electrons as shown in the given equation:
Thus the overall reaction will be:
