Answer the questions for each step in the essay box below. Place about 3 mL of 0.01 M acidified iron (II) sulfate, FeSO4, in a test tube.
Using a clean eyedropper, add 6 drops of 0.01 M potassium permanganate, KMnO4, 1 drop at a time, shaking the test tube after each additional drop.
What do the reactants look like?
What happens when the reactants are combined? Make observations concerning anything that might indicate a chemical reaction, such as production of a gas or a precipitate, color change or temperature change (did the test tube get cold or hot?).
Why do you think a reaction has, or has not, occurred?
Using two clean eyedroppers, add 10 drops of 0.01 M sodium chloride, NaCl, to 10 drops of 0.01 M ammonium nitrate, NH4NO3.
What do the reactants look like?
What happens when the reactants are combined?
Why do you think a reaction has, or has not, occurred?

you need to take a look at the periodic system in order to sort these elements into pairs that would most likely exhibit similar chemical properties. first, you need to find elements that are found in the same group (groups are vertical in the periodic system), and then to see whether they have the same valence number. if they meet these criteria, they will have similar properties.

the first pair: ne (neon) and kr (krypton), are noble gases found in group 8

the second pair: li (lithium) and k (potassium), found in group 1

the third pair: s (sulfur) and te (tellurium), found in group 6

"you start with 15.67 g mgco3-xh2o, when heated and all the water is removed, you are left with 7.58 g mgco3 only.

therefore, you had 15.67 - 7.58 = 8.09g h2o  

moles of each :

7.58g mgco3 = ? moles = 7.58g / 83.4g/mole = 0.09moles  

8 09g h2o = ? moles = 8.09g / 18g/mole = 0.44moles  

molar ratio between the two by dividing both numbers by the smallest number :

0.09 / 0.09 = 1  

0.44 / 0.09 = 4.8
