An aqueous solution of iron(II) iodide has a concentration of 0.215 molal. The percent by mass of iron(II) iodide in the solutio
Basile [38]

Answer:

6.24%

Explanation:

Molality by definition means a measurement of the number of moles of solute in solution with 1000 gm or 1Kg solvent. Notice the difference that Molarity is defined on the volume of solution and Molality on the mass of solvent.

So, An aqueous solution of iron(II) iodide has a concentration of 0.215 molal.

means 0.215 moles are present in 1 Kg of solvent.

The molar mass of Fe2I = 309.65 g / mole

mass of FeI2 = moles x molar mass

= 0.215 x 309.65

=66.57 gm

mass % of FeI2 = mass of FeI2 x 100 / total mass

= 66.57x 100 / (1000 +66.57)

= 6.24%

What type of wave do the contractions of the snake muscles make as the snake moves forward
S_A_V [24]
Actually, there are four kinds of reptile motion: 

Concertina - vermiform. Circular muscles around the snake squeeze the front of the snake's body out long, then the latter half is pulled forward. 

Rectilinear crawling - Belly scutes are moved forward individually in a wave-like motion. 

Side-winding - Snake's version of "walking". Use by several species to move over fluidic substrates, such as sand. 

Lateral undulation - Most common form of movement. Snake presses on alternating pressure points to force body forward (or backward)
