a. CaCl₂.2 H₂O (aq) + K₂C₂O₄. H₂O (aq) > 2 KCl + CaC₂O₄ (s) + 3 H₂0 (l)

b. Ca²+ (aq) + C₂O₄²- (aq) > CaC₂O₄ (s)

C. moles of CaCl₂.2 H₂O reacted in the mixture = 0.00222 moles

d. Mass of CaCl₂.2 H₂O reacted = 0.326 g

e. Moles of K₂C₂O₄.2 H₂O reacted = 0.00222 moles

f. Mass of K₂C₂O₄.H₂O reacted = 0.408 g

g. mass of K₂C₂O₄.H₂O remaining unreacted = 0.145 g

h. Percent by mass CaCl₂.2 H₂O = 37.1%

Percent by mass of K₂C₂O₄.H₂O = 62.9%

Explanation:

a. Molecular equation of the reaction is given below :

CaCl₂.2 H₂O (aq) + K₂C₂O₄. H₂O (aq) > 2 KCl + CaC₂O₄ (s) + 3 H₂0 (l)

b. The net ionic equation is given below

Ca²+ (aq) + C₂O₄²- (aq) > CaC₂O₄ (s)

C. mass CaC₂O₄ produced = 0.284 g, molar mass of CaC₂O₄ = 128 g/mol

moles CaC₂O₄ produced = 0.284 g / 128 g/mol = 0.00222 moles

Mole ratio of CaC₂O₄ and CaCl₂.2 H₂O is 1 : 1, therefore moles of CaCl₂.2 H₂O reacted in the mixture = 0.00222 moles

d. Mass of CaCl₂.2 H₂O reacted in the mixture = number of moles × molar mass

Molar mass of CaCl₂.2 H₂O = 147 g/mol

Mass of CaCl₂.2 H₂O reacted = 0.00222 moles × 147 g/mol = 0.326 g

e. Mole ratio of K₂C₂O₄.2 H₂O and CaC₂O₄ is 1 : 1, therefore, moles of K₂C₂O₄.2 H₂O reacted = 0.00222 moles

f. Mass of K₂C₂O₄.H₂O reacted in the mixture = number of moles × molar mass

Molar mass of K₂C₂O₄.H₂O = 184 g/mol

grams K2C2O4-H2O reacted = 0.00222 moles 184 g/mole = 0.408 g

g. Mass of sample = 0.879 g

mass of CaCl₂.2 H₂O in sample completely used up = 0.326 g

mass of K₂C₂O₄.H₂O in sample = 0.879 g - 0.326 g = 0.553 g

mass of K₂C₂O₄.H₂O remaining unreacted = 0.553 g - 0.408 g = 0.145 g

h. Percent by mass CaCl₂.2 H₂O = 0.326 /0.879 x 100% = 37.1%

Percent by mass of K₂C₂O₄.H₂O = 0.553/0.879 × 100% = 62.9%

answer: e.   sour taste

explanation: acids are those substances which dissociates in water to give ions. as they dissociate to give ions, they act as electrolytes and thus are electrically conductive. acids are sour in taste. example: hcl

bases are those substances which dissociates in water to give ions or accepts ions. as they dissociate to give ions, they act as electrolytes and thus are electrically conductive. bases are bitter in taste. bases are slippery in nature.

gas

explanation:

smoke is the matter of a gas
