When water was added to a 4.00 gram mixture of potassium oxalate hydrate (molar mass 184.24 g/mol) and calcium hydrate shown below , 1.20 g of calcium oxalate hydrate (146.12 g/mol molar mass) was recovered. if the mole: mole ratio of potassium oxalate to calcium oxalate is 1: 1 , what percentage of the 4g-mixture is potassium oxalate

% (COOK)2H2O = 37.826 %

Explanation:

mix: (COOK)2H2O + Ca(OH)2 → CaC2O4 + H2O

∴ mass mix = 4.00 g

∴ mass (CaC2O4)H2O = 1.20 g

∴ Mw (COOK)2H2O = 184.24 g/mol

∴ Mw (CaC2O4)H2O = 146.12 g/mol

∴ r = mol (COOK)2H2O / mol (CaC2O4)H2O = 1

⇒ mass (COOK)2H2O = (1.20 g (CaC2O4)H2O)×(mol (CaC2O4)H2O / 146.12 g (CaC2O4)H2O)×(mol (COOK)2H2O/mol (CaC2O4)H2O)×(184.24 g (COOK)2H2O/mol (COOK)2H2O)

⇒ mass (COOK)2H2O = 1.513 g

⇒ % (COOK)2H2O = ( 1.513 g / 4 g )×100

⇒ % (COOK)2H2O = 37.826 %

they are both synthetic elements

explanation:

d

the number of protons in the nucleus of a given element. has slight luster and conducts electricity at high temperatures like metal.but like a nonmetal,boron is brittle and does not conduct electricity well at low temperatures. in graphite, carbon is a soft,brittle solid.it is reflective,ductile,or malleable.
