Year In Review – Assignment III

5. 40.0 mL of 2.0 M AlCl3 is diluted with water to make 1.2 L of solution.

What is
a. the molarity of the Cl─ in the diluted solution?
b. the mass of the AlCl3 in the solution?

If 5.00 g of AgNO3 is added to the solution, what is:

c. the balanced equation for the double replacement reaction that occurs?
d. the net ionic equation?
e. the concentration of all spectator ions in the final solution?
f. the formula mass of the precipitate?
g. the yield (mass) of precipitate formed in the reaction.
h. the limiting reactant?
i. the % yield given an experimental yield of 3.90 g precipitate.

Consult the solubility curves below to answer the following questions.

j. What is the molar concentration of a saturated solution of silver nitrate at 10oC?

k. Cerium sulfate displays “retrograde” solubility. What does this mean?
l. Propose an explanation for the solubility pattern of cerium sulfate (hint: Le
Chatelier)
6. In an old storeroom, we found six gas samples placed at random into six tanks of
different capacities (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6 L).
Also at random, one identification label with a letter (A, B, C, D, E, or F) is placed
on each tank.
The gas samples are helium, nitrogen, chlorine, argon, air, and oxygen.

On the basis of the following clues, match the sample and label corresponding to
each tank.

• Tanks A and D have capacities larger than 3 L but only A contains a pure gas
with diatomic molecules.
• The biggest tank is labeled with a vowel and contains a noble gas.
• The 2-L tank contains mostly molecules of N2.
• The smallest tank does not have the label B or F.
• The main component of air is in tank B and the halogen is in a flask smaller
than 4 L.
• The 5-L tank is not labeled with a vowel and contains an element first
discovered in the sun.
