Chemistry

Answer:

The nucleus contains the majority of an atom's mass because protons and neutrons are much heavier than electrons, whereas electrons occupy almost all of an atom's volume. The diameter of an atom is on the order of 10−10 m, whereas the diameter of the nucleus is roughly 10−15 m—about 100,000 times smaller.

This is because protons and neutrons are heavier than electrons as opposed to where electrons occupy most of an atoms volume

A stock solution has a concentration of 1.5 M NaCl and is diluted to a 0.80 M solution with a volume of 0.10 L. What volume of t
ioda

Answer:

0.053 L  is the volume of concentrated solution that was used

Explanation:

Let's determine the answer of this, by rules of three.

There is also a dilution formula.

Molarity is a sort of concentration that indicates the moles of solute in 1L of solution.

In 1 L of concentrated solution, there are 1.5 moles of NaCl

In 1 L of diluted solution, there are 0.80 moles.

The volume for the diluted solution is 0.10L

The rule of three will be:

1L of solution has 0.80 moles of solute

Then, 0.10L of solution must have (0.1 . 0.8)/1 = 0.08 moles

This moles came from the concentrated solution, and we know that in 1L of this solution we have 1.5 moles. Therefore the rule of three will be:

1.5 moles are in 1L of solution

0.08 moles were in (0.08 . 1L / 1.5) = 0.053 L (This is the volume of concentrated solution that was used)

Dilution formula is: M conc . Vol conc = M diluted . Vol diluted

1.5 M . Vol conc = 0.80 M . 0.10L

Vol conc = 0.80 M . 0.10L / 1.5M = 0.053L
