Answer:

Since molarity is defined as moles of solute per liter of solution, we need to find the number of moles of nitric acid, and the volume of solution.

molar mass of nitric acid (HNO3) = 1 + 14 + (3x16) = 15 + 48 = 63 g/mole

1.50 g/ml x 1000 ml = 1500 g/liter

1500 g/liter x 0.90 = 1350 g/liter of pure HNO3 (the 0.9 is to correct for the fact that it is 90% pure)

1350 g/liter x 1 mole/63 g = 21.43 moles/liter = 21 Molar HNO3

= 21 Molar of HNO3

Answer:

21.4 M.

Explanation:

Mass of HNO3 = 90%

= 90 g of HNO3 in 100 g of solution.

Density = 1.5 g/ml

Molar mass of HNO3 = 1 + 14 + (3*16)

= 63 g/mol

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

= 90/63

= 1.429 mol.

Volume of solution = mass/density

= 100/1.5

= 66.67 ml of solution.

= 0.0667 l.

Molarity is defined as the number of moles of a substance per unit volume of solution.

Molarity, M = number of moles/volume

= 1.429/0.0667

= 21.4 M.

Which of the following groups in the periodic
Dimas [21]

Elements of Group 1 and  group 2  in the periodic table contain elements so reactive that they are  never found in the free state

<u>Explanation</u>:

The metals in group 1 of  periodic table consisting of 'alkali metals' which include lithium, potassium, sodium, rubidium, Francium and caesium. They are highly reactive because they have low ionisation energy and larger radius. The group 2 metals consist of 'alkaline earth metals' which include calcium, strontium, barium, beryllium, radium and magnesium.  These alkaline earth metal have +2 oxidation number, hence are highly reactive.

These both group metals are mostly reactive and so are never found in a free state. When they are exposed to air they would immediately react with oxygen. Hence, are stored in oils to avoid oxidation.

1. Explain what is in a buffer. Discuss the function of a buffer. How will pH change when small amounts of acids or bases are ad
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

(1) See below, (2) About 8.4 pH, (3) About 3.981 * 10⁻⁶ mol dm⁻³

Explanation:

1. A buffer is a solution that resist pH when adding a basic or acidic compound. It's purpose is to neutralize added acids and bases.

2. Remember that the formula for pH is -log [H+]. We have a 0.1 M solution of baking soda in water with [H+] of about 4.0 × 10⁻⁹. Therefore we can calculate the pH as follows...

pH = -log (4.0 × 10⁻⁹)

pH = -(-8.39794...) = (About) 8.4 pH of 0.1 M of baking soda

3. This question has a similar set up...

pH = -log [H+]

[H+] = inverse of log^- pH

[H+] = 10^-5.4 = (About) 3.981 * 10⁻⁶

You are given stocks of 4 M NaCl, 40% Glucose, and 1M Tris-HCl (pH 8.5). You need to make 400 ml of a buffer containing 0.5 M Na
OLga [1]

Answer:

50mL of 4M NaCl, 80mL of 40% glucose, 20mL of 1M Tris-HCl (pH 8.5) and 250mL of water.

Explanation:

To make 400mL containing 0.5M NaCl you need to add:

4M / 0.5M = 8 (dilution 1/8). 400mL / 8 = <em>50 mL of 4M NaCl.</em>

Glucose 8% you need to add:

40% / 8% = 5 (dilution 1/5). 400mL / 5 = <em>80 mL of 40% glucose </em>

Buffer 50mM you need to add:

1000mM / 50mM = 20 (dilution 1/20). 400mL / 20 = <em>20mL of 1M Tris-HCl (pH 8.5)</em>

<em></em>

The resting volume: 400mL - 50mL of 4M NaCl - 80mL of 40% glucose - 20mL of 1M Tris-HCl (pH 8.5) = 250 mL must be completed with water.

Thus, to make the solution you need: <em>50mL of 4M NaCl, 80mL of 40% glucose, 20mL of 1M Tris-HCl (pH 8.5) and 250mL of water.</em>

<em></em>

I hope it helps!
