Chapter 12, Problem 20E
Amorphous silica, SiO2, has a density of about 2.2g\cm3, whereas the density of crystalline quartz, another form of SiO2, is 2.65 g\cm3. Which of the following statements is the best explanation for the difference in density?
- Amorphous silica is a network-covalent solid, but quartz is metallic.
- Amorphous silica crystallizes in a primitive cubic lattice.
- Quartz is harder than amorphous silica.
- Quartz must have a larger unit cell than amorphous silica
- The atoms in amorphous silica do not pack as efficiency in three dimensions as compared to the atoms in quartz.

- Question 19 0/2 pts 3 Details You have a mixture of sodium chloride (NaCl) and potassium chloride (KCl) dissolved in water and want to separate out the Cl- ions by precipitating them out using silver ions (Ag+). The chemical equation for the net ionic reaction of NaCl and KCl with silver nitrate, AgNO3, is shown below. Ag+(aq) + Cl(aq) → AgCl(s) The total mass of the NaCl/KCl mixture is 1.299 g. Adding 50.42 mL of 0.381 M solution precipitates out all of the Cl-. What are the masses of NaCl and KCl in the mixture? Atomic masses: g: Mass of NaCl g: Mass of KCL Ag = 107.868 g mol- 1 Cl = 35.453 g mol- 1 K = 39.098 g mol- N = 14.007 g mol−1 Na = 22.99 g mol−1 0 = 15.999 g mol 1 Question Help: ✓ Message instructor Submit Questionarrow_forwardPart 1.

Show only the diastereomers (you do not have to draw the pairs of enantiomers). If you believe that multiple products are formed in approximately equal amounts (hence neither is the major product), draw the structures of the products, and show the detailed mechanism of these reactions to justify the formation of the multiple products. If you believe no product is formed, explain why briefly. (6 mark for each, except f and g, which are 10 mark each)arrow_forward
