Calculate the number of moles in a sample of 113.47g of Ca(HCO3)2.

Using the AQA specimen data sheet we see that the RAMs of the following elements areCa = 40.1H = 1.0C = 12.0O = 16.0Therefore the total mass for one mole isCa + 2x(H + C + O+O+O)= 40.1 + 2x(1+12+16+16+16)= 40.1 + 2x61 = 40.1+122=162.1moles = mass / RAM=113.47/162.1 = 0.7 moles

State how you would test a solution for the presence of sulfate ions? Explain, using an ionic equation, what you would expect to observe in the presence of sulfate ions.


The equilibrium N2O4 (g) -->--< 2NO2 (g) is set up when N2O4 dissociates. When 0.0370 moles of N2O4 dissociates at 25 degrees in a 0.5dm3 sealed container, 0.0310 moles of N2O4 remains at equilibrium. Calculate the value of Kc for this reaction.
