Đặt :
nCu(OH)2 = x mol
nRO = y mol
mhh= 98x + y(R+16) = 17.8 (g) (1)
mHNO3 = 37.8065 g
nHNO3 = 0.6 mol
Cu(OH)2 + 2HNO3 --> Cu(NO3)2 + 2H2O
x___________2x_________x
RO + 2HNO3 --> R(NO3)2 + H2O
y_______2y
mdd sau phản ứng = 17.8 + 182.2 = 200g
C%Cu(NO3)2 = 188x/200 * 100% = 9.4%
=> x = 0.1 mol
nHNO3 = 2x + 2y = 0.6
=> y = 0.2
Thay x, y vào (1) :
mhh= 98x + y(R+16) = 17.8 (g)
<=> 98*0.1 + 0.2(R+16) = 17.8
=> R = 24
Vậy: CTHH : MgO
mCu(OH)2 = 9.8 g
mMgO = 8 g
%Cu(OH)2 = 55.05%
%MgO=44.95%
