1.4 Calculate the reacting masses as given in the questions. (a) In the reaction below, 42.5g of ZnCl2 was formed. The relative formula masses are given as: ZnCl2 = 136.4 and FeCl2 = 126.6 ZnO + FeCl2 → ZnClz + FeO (i) Calculate the number of moles of ZNCI2 in 42.5g Answer: mol (ii) Calculate the number of moles of FeCl2 needed in the reaction. Answer:............. mol (iii) Calculate the mass of FeCl2 needed in the reaction. Answer: ......
States of Matter
The substance that constitutes everything in the universe is known as matter. Matter comprises atoms which in turn are composed of electrons, protons, and neutrons. Different atoms combine together to give rise to molecules that act as a foundation for all kinds of substances. There are five states of matter based on their energies of attraction, namely solid, liquid, gases, plasma, and BEC (Bose-Einstein condensates).
Chemical Reactions and Equations
When a chemical species is transformed into another chemical species it is said to have undergone a chemical reaction. It consists of breaking existing bonds and forming new bonds by changing the position of electrons. These reactions are best explained using a chemical equation.
