The mass of carbon contained in 2.25 g of potassium carbonate, K₂CO₃ is 0.196 g.

<h3>Molecular mass of potassium carbonate</h3>

The molecular mass of potassium carbonate, K₂CO₃ is calculated as follows;

M = K₂CO₃

M = (39 x 2) + (12) + (16 x 3)

M = 138 g

mass of carbon in potassium carbonate, K₂CO₃ is = 12 g

The mass of carbon contained in 2.25 g of potassium carbonate, K₂CO₃ is calculated as follows;

138 g ------------ 12 g of carbon

2.25 g ------------ ?

= (2.25 x 12) / 138

= 0.196 g

Thus, the mass of carbon contained in 2.25 g of potassium carbonate, K₂CO₃ is 0.196 g.

A student prepared a stock solution by dissolving 10.0 g of KOH in enough water to make 150. mL of solution. She then took 15.0

yanalaym [24]

Answer: The concentration of KOH for the final solution is 0.275 M

Explanation:

Molarity of a solution is defined as the number of moles of solute dissolved per Liter of the solution.

$Molarity=\frac{n\times 1000}{V_s}$

where,

n = moles of solute

$V_s$ = volume of solution in ml = 150 ml

moles of solute = $\frac{\text {given mass}}{\text {molar mass}}=\frac{10.0g}{56g/mol}=0.178moles$

Now put all the given values in the formula of molality, we get

$Molality=\frac{0.178\times 1000}{150}=1.19M$

According to the dilution law,

$C_1V_1=C_2V_2$

where,

$C_1$ = molarity of stock solution = 1.19 M

$V_1$ = volume of stock solution = 15.0 ml

$C_2$ = molarity of diluted solution = ?

$V_2$ = volume of diluted solution = 65.0 ml

Putting in the values we get:

$1.19\times 15.0=M_2\times 65.0$

$M_1=0.275M$

Therefore, the concentration of KOH for the final solution is 0.275 M

A bag of fertilizer is labeled 10-20-20. What is the actual percentage of phosphorus in the fertilizer?

aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

20% of phosphorus

Explanation:

A fertilizer is used to improve the fertility of soils. Most fertilizers contains the element nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium.

They are often designated NPK fertilizers.

Now we know that the numbers 10-20-20 depicts the nitrogen-phosphorus and potassium content of the fertilizer.

From the designation,

The actual percentage is 20% of phosphorus.

10% of nitrogen

20% of potassium
