Calculate the amount of carbon dioxid gas in 1.505x10^23 molecules of the gas.

Daniel [21]

Explanation:

We need to find the amount of carbon dioxide gas in $1.505\times 10^{23}$ molecules of the gas.

We know that, 1 mole weighs 44 gram of carbon dioxide which contains $6.022\times 10^{23}$ number of molecules. It means that, $6.022\times 10^{23}$ number of molecules present in 44 grams of carbon dioxide molecule. So, $1.505\times 10^{23}$ number of molecules present in :

$=\dfrac{1.0505\times 10^{23}}{6.022\times 10^{23}}\times 44\\\\=7.675\ \text{grams}$

Hence, 7.675 grams of carbon dioxide is present in $1.505\times 10^{23}$ molecules of the gas.

Answer:

decomposition reaction.

Explanation:

It is a decomposition reaction as potassium chlorate compound breaks to form potassium chloride and oxygen. This reaction requires heat as source of energy to break down the compound so it is endothermic in nature.

The solubility of water in diethyl ether has been reported to be 1.468 % by mass.' Assuming that 23.0 mL of diethyl ether were a

melomori [17]

Explanation:

As it is given that solubility of water in diethyl ether is 1.468 %. This means that in 100 ml saturated solution water present is 1.468 ml.

Hence, amount of diethyl ether present will be calculated as follows.

(100ml - 1.468 ml)

= 98.532 ml

So, it means that 98.532 ml of diethyl ether can dissolve 1.468 ml of water.

Hence, 23 ml of diethyl ether can dissolve the amount of water will be calculated as follows.

Amount of water = $\frac{1.468 ml \times 23 ml}{98.532 ml}$

= 0.3427 ml

Now, when magnesium dissolves in water then the reaction will be as follows.

$Mg + H_{2}O \rightarrow Mg(OH)_{2}$

Molar mass of Mg = 24.305 g

Molar mass of $H_{2}O$ = 18 g

Therefore, amount of magnesium present in 0.3427 ml of water is calculated as follows.

Amount of Mg = $\frac{24.305 g \times 0.3427 ml}{18 g}$

= 0.462 g

I need part 1 and 2 please , just separate answers

Vladimir79 [104]

First, we have to remember the molarity formula:

$M=\text{ }\frac{moles\text{ of solute}}{L\text{ solution}}$

Part 1:

In this case, our solute is sodium nitrate (NaNO3), and we have the mass dissolved in water, then we have to convert grams to moles. For that, we need the molecular weight:

$M.W_{NaNO_3}=\text{ 23+14+16*3= 85 g/mol}$

Then, we calculate the moles present in the solution:

$3.976\text{ g NaNO}_3\text{ * }\frac{1\text{ mol}}{85\text{ g}}=\text{ 0.04678 mol NaNO}_3$

Now, we have the necessary data to calculate the molarity (with the solution volume of 200 mL):

$M=\frac{0.04678\text{ mol}}{200\text{ mL*}\frac{1\text{ L}}{1000\text{ mL}}}=\text{ 0.2339 M}$

The molarity of this solution equals 0.2339 M.

Part 2:

In this case, we have the same amount (in moles and mass) of sodium nitrate, but a different volume of solution, then we only have to change it:

$M=\text{ }\frac{0.04678\text{ mol}}{275\text{ mL *}\frac{1\text{ L}}{1000\text{ mL}}}=\text{ 0.1701 M}$

So, the molarity of this solution is 0.1701 M.
