In this experiment Lavoisier found that mercury(II) oxide, when heated, decomposed into liquid mercury and an invisible and previously unknown substance: oxygen gas. 1. Write a balanced chemical equation, including physical state symbols, for the D-0 decomposition of solid mercury(II) oxide (HgO) into liquid mercury and gaseous dioxygen. 2. Suppose 54.0 mL of dioxygen gas are produced by this reaction, at a temperature of 50.0 °C and pressure of exactly 1 atm. Calculate the mass of mercury(II) oxide that must have reacted.

- A steady-state process to recover crystalline potassium chromate (K,CrOz) from an aqueous solution of this salt is required. Four thousand kilograms per hour of a solution that is one-third K,CrO, by mass is joined by a recycle stream containing 36.4% K2CrO7, and the combined stream is fed into an evaporator. The concentrated stream leaving the evaporator contains 49.4% K,CrO; this stream is fed into a crystallizer in which it is cooled (causing crystals of K,CrO, to come out of solution) and then filtered. The filter cake consists of K,CrO, crystals and a solution that contains 36.4% K,CrO, by mass; the crystals account for 95% of the total mass of the filter cake. The solution that passes through the filter, also 36.4% K,CrO,, is the recycle stream. 1- Draw the flowchart of the system and put all known information. 2- Calculate the rate of evaporation, the rate of production of crystalline K,CrO7, the feed rates that the evaporator and the crystallizer must be designed to handle, and…arrow_forward12:06 A * A * ll 68%i Zoom v Leave • REC Breakout Rooms GROUP WORK An iron ore was analyzed by dissolving a 1.1324 g sample in concentrated HCI.

Aluminum sulfate can be made by the following reaction: 2AlCl3(aq)+3 H2SO4(aq)➡Al(SO4)3(aq)+6HCl(aq). It is quit soluble in water, so to isolate it the solution has to be evaporated to dryness. This drives off the volatile HCl, but the residual solid has to be heated to a little over 200 celsius to drive off the water. In one experiment, 25.0 g of AlCl3 were mixed with 30.0 g of H2SO4. Eventually, 28.46 g of pure Al2(SO4)3 were isolated. Calculate the percentage yield. 2.
