Both calcium chloride and sodium chloride are used to melt ice and snow on roads in the winter. A certain company was marketing a mixture of these two compounds for this purpose. A chemist, wanting to analyze the mixture, dissolved 2.463 g of it in water and precipitated calcium oxalate by adding sodium oxalate,
The titration required 21.62 mL of the
(a) How many moles of
(b) How many grams of calcium chloride were in the original 2.463 g sample?
(c) What was the percentage by mass of calcium chloride in the sample?

- Write the net ionic equation for the reaction, if any, that occurs on mixing (a) solutions of sodium hydroxide and magnesium chloride. (b) solutions of sodium nitrate and magnesium bromide. (c) magnesium metal and a solution of hydrochloric acid to produce magnesium chloride and hydrogen. Magnesium metal reacting with HCl.arrow_forwardA soluble iodide was dissolved in water. Then an excess of silver nitrate, AgNO3, was added to precipitate all of the iodide ion as silver iodide, AgI. If 1.545 g of the soluble iodide gave 2.185 g of silver iodide, how many grams of iodine are in the sample of soluble iodide? What is the mass percentage of iodine, I, in the compound?arrow_forward1. Sometimes a reaction can fall in more than one category. Into what category (or categories) does the reaction of Ba(OH)2(aq) + H+PO4(aq) fit? acid-base and oxidation-reduction oxidation-reduction acid-base and precipitation precipitationarrow_forward
- A 300.0-g sample of a solid is made up of a uniform mixture of NaNO3, MgCl2, and BaCl2. A 100.0-g sample of the mixture is dissolved in water and treated with an excess of KOH. The precipitate from the reaction has a mass of 13.47 g. The remaining 200.0-g sample is also dissolved in water and treated with an aqueous solution of AgNO3. The resulting precipitate has a mass of 195.8 g. What are the masses of NaNO3, MgCl2, and BaCl2 in the 300.0-g sample?arrow_forwardArsenic acid, H3AsO4, is a poisonous acid that has been used in the treatment of wood to prevent insect damage. Arsenic acid has three acidic protons. Say you take a 25.00-mL sample of arsenic acid and prepare it for titration with NaOH by adding 25.00 mL of water. The complete neutralization of this solution requires the addition of 53.07 mL of 0.6441 M NaOH solution. Write the balanced chemical reaction for the titration, and calculate the molarity of the arsenic acid sample.arrow_forwardAn aqueous sample is known to contain either Mg2+ or Ba2+ ions. Treatment of the sample with Na2CO3 produces a precipitate, but treatment with ammonium sulfate does not. Use the solubility rules (see Table 4.1) to determine which cation is present.arrow_forward
- Bone was dissolved in hydrochloric acid, giving 50.0 mL of solution containing calcium chloride, CaCL2. To precipitate the calcium ion from the resulting solution, an excess of potassium oxalate was added. The precipitate of calcium oxalate, CaC2O4, weighed 1.437 g. What was the molarity of CaCl2 in the solution?arrow_forwardChlorisondamine chloride (C14H20Cl6N2) is a drug used in the treatment of hypertension. A 1.28-g sample of a medication containing the drug was treated to destroy the organic material and to release all the chlorine as chloride ion. When the filtered solution containing chloride ion was treated with an excess of silver nitrate, 0.104 g silver chloride was recovered. Calculate the mass percent of chlorisondamine chloride in the medication, assuming the drug is the only source of chloride.arrow_forwardAzurite is a copper-containing mineral that often forms beautiful crystals. Its formula is Cu3(CO3)2(OH)2. Write balanced equation for the reaction of this mineral with hydrochloric acid.arrow_forward
- Magnesium metal (a component of alloys used in aircraft and a reducing agent used in the production of uranium, titanium, and other active metals) is isolated from sea water by the following sequence of reactions: Mg2+(aq)+Ca(OH)2(aq)Mg(OH)2(s)+Ca2+(aq)Mg(OH)2(s)+2HCl(aq)MgCl2(s)+2H2O(l)MgCl2(l)electrolysisMg(s)+Cl2+Cl2(g) Sea water has a density of 1.026 g/cm3 and contains 1272 parts per million of magnesium a5 Mg2+(aq) by mass. What mass, in kilograms, of Ca(OH)2; is required to precipitate 99.9% of the magnesium in 1.00103 L of sea water?arrow_forwardTwenty-five mL of a 0.388 M solution of Na2SO4 is mixed with 35.3 mL of 0.229 M Na2SO4. What is the molarity of the resulting solution? Assume that the volumes are additive.arrow_forwardWrite a balanced equation for the reaction of hydroiodic acid, HI, with calcium hydroxide, Ca(OH)2. Then, write the balanced complete ionic equation and the net ionic equation for this neutralization reaction.arrow_forward
