Determine the mass of salt and the amount of water obtained by the interaction
Determine the mass of salt and the amount of water obtained by the interaction of copper (II) hydroxide with hydrochloric acid, if it is known that a solution weighing 365 g contains 10% acid.
Data: mр is the mass of the acid solution (mр = 365 g); ωHCl – mass fraction of pure acid (ωHCl = 0.1).
Const: MHCl – molar mass of hydrochloric acid (MHCl ≈ 36.5 g / mol); MCuCl2 – molar mass of copper chloride (MCuCl2 ≈ 134.5 g / mol).
1) The mass of pure acid: mHCl = mr * ωHCl = 365 * 0.1 = 36.5 g.
2) Amount of hydrochloric acid substance: νHCl = mHCl / MHCl = 36.5 / 36.5 = 1 mol.
3) Ur-tion of the reaction: Cu (OH) 2 (copper hydroxide) + 2HCl (hydrochloric acid) = CuCl2 (copper chloride) + 2H2O (water).
4) Amount of salt substance (copper chloride): νCuCl2 / νHCl = 1/2 and νCuCl2 = νHCl / 2 = 1/2 = 0.5 mol.
5) Mass of copper chloride: mCuCl2 = νCuCl2 * MCuCl2 = 0.5 * 134.5 = 67.25 g.
6) Amount of water substance: νН2О / νHCl = 2/2 and νН2О = νHCl = 1 mol.
Answer: The mass of salt (copper chloride) is 67.25 g, the amount of water is 1 mol.
