2. If 6.0g of carbon is heated in air, the mass of the product obtained could be either 22.0g or 14.0g depending on the amount of air present. Show that this verifies the law of multiple proportions.

3. Alaxin, (C5H8)nO5, is a new malaria drug. Determine the molecular formula of alaxin if its relative molecular mass is 284.
(H = 1, C = 12, O = 16)

The modern periodic table has groups.

Amass of 100.0 g of solute is dissolved in water so that 850. ml of a 0.7500 m solution has been prepared. what is the molar mass of the solute?

Consider three unlabeled bottles, each contain small pieces of one of the following metals. - magnesium - sodium - silver the following reagents are used for identifying the metals. - pure water - a solution of 1.0 molar hcl - a solution of concentrated hno3 (a) which metal can be easily identified because it is much softer than the other two? describe a chemical test that distinguishes this metal from the other two, using only one of the reagents above. write a balanced chemical equation for the reaction that occurs. (b) one of the other two metals reacts readily with the hcl solution. identify the metal and write the balanced chemical equation for the reaction that occurs when this metal is added to the hcl solution. use the table of standard reduction potentials (attached) to account for the fact that this metal reacts with hcl while the other does not. (c) the one remaining metal reacts with the concentrated hno3 solution. write a balanced chemical equation for the reaction that occurs. (d) the solution obtained in (c) is diluted and a few drops of 1 m hcl is added. describe what would be observed. write a balanced chemical equation for the reaction that occurs.
