Addition of 50.00 mL of 2.238 m H2SO4 1solution density = 1.1243 g>mL2 to 50.00 mL of 2.238 M BaCl2 gives a white precipitate. (b) If you filter the mixture and add more H2SO4 solution to the filtrate, would you obtain more precipitate? Explain.

Treatment of 1.385 g of an unknown metal M with an excess of aqueous HCl evolved a gas that was found to have a volume of 382.6 mL at 20.0 °C and 755 mm Hg pressure. Heating the reaction mixture to evaporate the water and remaining HCl then gave a white crystalline compound, MClx. After dis- solving the compound in 25.0 g of water, the melting point of the resulting solution was - 3.53 °C. (c) What is the molality of particles (ions) in the solution of MClx?
