Copper metal (Cu) reacts with silver nitrate (AgNO3) in aqueous solution to form Ag and Cu(NO3)2. An excess of AgNO3 is present. The balanced chemical equation is shown below.Cu + 2AgNO3 ---> Cu(NO3)2 + 2Ag

The molar mass of Cu is 63.5 g/mol. The molar mass of Ag is 107.9 g/mol. What mass, in grams, of Ag is produced from reaction of 31.75 g of Cu?

26.95
107.9
215.91
431.82

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

we are given the reaction Cu + 2AgNO3 ---> Cu(NO3)2 + 2Ag. This means for every mole Cu used, there are 2 moles of Ag produced. In this case, given 31.75 g Cu, converting to moles through molar mass and using stoichiometric ratio and the molar mass of Ag, the mass Ag produced is 107.9 grams. 
Answer 2
Answer:

The mass in grams of Ag produced from reaction of 31.75g of Cu is 107.9 grams

calculation

Cu+2AgNO3 ---> Cu(NO3)2 + 2Ag

find the moles of Cu that reacted

moles= mass/molar mass

=31.75 g/63.5 g/mol= 0.5 moles

from the equation above the mole ratio of CU:Ag is 1:2 therefore the moles of Ag=0.5 moles x2 = 1 mole

mass of Ag= moles of Ag x molar mass

= 1 mole x107.9g/mol = 107.9 grams

The immediate concern of chlorine exposure is the effects on the ____?

Answers

The effects of the exposure of chlorine happens instantly. The degree of damage would depend on how much was chlorine present, where did it enter and how long was the exposure. Inhalation of the gas would cause tightness in the chest, bronchospasm, and noncardiogenic pulmonary edema. When ingested, it would damage the gastrointestinal tract. Exposure to the gas would irritate eye and the skin. Also, it would cause burns.

Rust on weathered rocks is caused by _____.saltation
oxidation
hydrolysis
abrasion

Answers

Rust on weathered rocks is caused by the process of oxidation. Oxidation is a process of chemical weathering that occurs when oxygen combines with minerals in rocks. rust occurs when oxygen combines with iron in rocks to form the reddish brown iron oxide.

Answer: The correct answer is oxidation.

Explanation:

Rust is a reddish-brown colored compound which is formed by the oxidation of Iron to form ferric oxide. The formula for this chemical compound is Fe-2O_3

Oxidation is defined as the reaction in which addition of oxygen takes place.

The reaction for the formation of rust is given by the equation, we get:

4Fe(s)+3O_2(g)\rightarrow 2Fe_2O_3(s)

By Stoichiometry,

4 moles of iron metal reacts with 3 moles of oxygen gas to form 2 moles of ferric oxide.

Hence, the correct answer is oxidation.
