Moisture is the water present in the soil that is trapped in the particles. The moisture content of the soil with an initial weight of 8.6 gm and dry weight of 7.0 gm will be 0.228.

<h3>What is the moisture content?</h3>

The moisture content is the estimation of the weight by the subtraction of the dry soil mass from the moist soil mass followed by dividing the value by the weight of the dry soil.

Given,

Weight of moist soil = 8.6 gm

Weight of dry soil = 7.0 gm

Substituting values,

(8.6 - 7.0) ÷ 7.0

= 0.228

Therefore, 0.228 is the moisture content of the soil.

If you have 1.29 moles of NaCl in 4 liters of solution, what is the molarity of the solution?
Illusion [34]

Answer:

0.32M

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Number of moles of NaCl  = 1.29moles

Volume of solution = 4liters  = 4dm³

Unknown:

Molarity of solution = ?

Solution:

Molarity is one the ways of expressing the concentration of a solute in a solution. It is given as;

         Molarity  = \frac{number of moles }{volume}

The unit is given as M which is mol/dm³

    Input the parameters and solve;

           Molarity  = \frac{1.29}{4}    = 0.32mol/dm³ or 0.32M

in order to find the molar mass of an unknown compound, a research scientist prepared a solution of 0.930 g of an unknown in 125
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

Molar mass→ 0.930 g / 6.45×10⁻³ mol = 144.15 g/mol

Explanation:

Let's apply the formula for freezing point depression:

ΔT = Kf . m

ΔT = 74.2°C - 73.4°C → 0.8°C

Difference between the freezing T° of pure solvent and freezing T° of solution

Kf = Cryoscopic constant → 5.5°C/m

So, if we replace in the formula

ΔT = Kf . m → ΔT / Kf = m

0.8°C / 5.5 m/°C = m → 0.0516 mol/kg

These are the moles in 1 kg of solvent so let's find out the moles in our mass of solvent which is 0.125 kg

0.0516 mol/kg . 0.125 kg = 6.45×10⁻³ moles. Now we can determine the molar mass:

Molar mass (mol/kg) → 0.930 g / 6.45×10⁻³ mol = 144.15 g/mol
