You're on a roll — Here are the answers to your questions: 4. Given a mixture of sodium chloride, silver chloride and ammonium chloride, describe how each component can be obtained. Step 1: Sublimation Heat the mixture gently. Ammonium chloride (NH_4Cl) will sublime (change directly from solid to gas) and can be collected by deposition on a cool surface. Step 2: Dissolution and Filtration Add water to the remaining mixture (sodium chloride and silver chloride). Sodium chloride (NaCl) is soluble in water, while silver chloride (AgCl) is insoluble. Stir the mixture to dissolve the NaCl. Filter the mixture to separate the insoluble silver chloride as a residue. Step 3: Evaporation/Crystallization Heat the filtrate (sodium chloride solution) to evaporate the water. Sodium chloride will be left behind as a solid. 5. Which particles conduct electricity in: a) Molten lead (II) bromide Ions (Pb^2+ and Br^-) b) Lead metal Delocalized electrons 6. The information in the table below relates to the physical properties of the chlorides of certain elements. a) Explain why melting points of NaCl and MgCl_2 are higher than those of SiCl_4, PCl_3 and SCl_2 chlorides in the table above. NaCl and MgCl_2 are ionic compounds with strong electrostatic forces of attraction between oppositely charged ions in a giant ionic lattice structure. A large amount of energy is required to overcome these strong forces, resulting in high melting points. SiCl_4, PCl_3, and SCl_2 are covalent compounds that exist as simple discrete molecules. The forces between these molecules are weak intermolecular forces (van der Waals forces). Only a small amount of energy is required to overcome these weak forces, leading to low melting points.
