Consider the reaction: CuCO3*Cu(OH)2(s)--> 2 CuO(s)+H2O(g)+CO2(g)
1.) What is the molar mass of CuCO*Cu(OH)2?

2. What total mass of H2O and CO2 will be produced when 1.000 mole of CuCO3*Cu(OH)2 is decomposed?

Respuesta :

Answer :

Part 1: The molar mass of [tex]CuCO_3.Cu(OH)_2[/tex] is 222 g/mol

Part 2: The mass of [tex]H_2O[/tex] and [tex]CO_2[/tex] is 18 g and 44 g respectively.

Explanation :

Part 1:

As we know that:

Atomic mass of copper, Cu = 64 g/mol

Atomic mass of carbon, C = 12 g/mol

Atomic mass of oxygen, O = 16 g/mol

Atomic mass of hydrogen, H = 1 g/mol

And we know that:

Molar mass of [tex]CuCO_3.Cu(OH)_2[/tex] = (2 × Atomic mass of Cu) + Atomic mass of C + (5 × Atomic mass of O) + (2 × Atomic mass of H)

Molar mass of [tex]CuCO_3.Cu(OH)_2[/tex] = (2 × 64) + 12 + (5 × 16) + (2 × 1)

Molar mass of [tex]CuCO_3.Cu(OH)_2[/tex] = 128 + 12 + 80 + 2

Molar mass of [tex]CuCO_3.Cu(OH)_2[/tex] = 222 g/mol

Part 2:

The balanced chemical reaction is:

[tex]CuCO_3.Cu(OH)_2(s)\rightarrow 2CuO(s)+H_2O(g)+CO_2(g)[/tex]

From the balanced chemical reaction we conclude that:

1 mole of [tex]CuCO_3.Cu(OH)_2[/tex] reacts to give 1 mole of [tex]H_2O[/tex] and 1 mole of [tex]CO_2[/tex]

Now we have to determine the mass of [tex]H_2O[/tex] and [tex]CO_2[/tex].

Mass of [tex]H_2O[/tex] = Moles of

Molar mas of [tex]H_2O[/tex] = 18 /mol

Mass of [tex]H_2O[/tex] = 1 mol × 18 g/mol = 18 g

And,

Mass of [tex]CO_2[/tex] = Moles of

Molar mas of [tex]CO_2[/tex] = 44 /mol

Mass of [tex]CO_2[/tex] = 1 mol × 44 g/mol = 44 g

Therefore, the mass of [tex]H_2O[/tex] and [tex]CO_2[/tex] is 18 g and 44 g respectively.

The molar mass of malachite has been 221.092 grams. The mass of water formed by the decomposition of 1 mole of malachite is 18 grams, and carbon dioxide has been 44 grams.

What is molar mass?

The molar mass has been the mass of each constituent element in the compound. The molar mass of malachite has been given as:

[tex]\rm CuCO_3.Cu(OH)_2=2\;Cu+C+5\;O+2\;H[/tex]

Substituting the mass of each element:

[tex]\rm CuCO_3.Cu(OH)_2=2\;(63.546)+12+5\;(16)+2\;(1)\\\\ CuCO_3.Cu(OH)_2=127.092+12+80+2\\\\ CuCO_3.Cu(OH)_2=221.092\;grams[/tex]

The molar mass of malachite has been 221.092 grams.

The moles of water and carbon dioxide decomposed in the reaction has been given by the stoichiometry law as:

1 mole of malachite decomposed of 1 mole of water and 1 mole of carbon dioxide.

The mass of 1 mole of the compound has been equivalent to the molar mass.

Thus, the mass of water formed has been 18 grams, and the mass of carbon dioxide formed has been 44 grams.
