Answer: 483 mL of the cleaning solution are used to clean hospital equipment

Explanation:

The question requires us to calculate the volume, in mL, of solution is used to clean hospital equipment, given that 415g of this solution are used and the specific gravity of the solution is 0.860.

Measurements > Density

Specific gravity is defined as the ratio between the density of a given substance to the density of a reference material, such as water:

Specific\text{ gravity = }\frac{density\text{ of substance}}{density\text{ of reference substance}}

The density of a substance is defined as the ratio between the mass and the volume of this substance:

density=\frac{mass}{volume}

Considering the reference substance as water and its density as 1.00 g/mL, we can determine the density of the substance which specific gravity is 0.860:

0.860=\frac{density\text{ of substance}}{1.00g/mL}\rightarrow density\text{ of substance = 0.860g/mL}

Thus, taking water as the reference substance, we can say that the density of the cleaning solution is 0.860 g/mL.

Now that we know the density of the cleaning solution (0.860 g/mL) and the mass of solution that is used to clean hospital equipment (415g), we can calculate the volume of solution that is used to clean the equipment:

\begin{gathered} density=\frac{mass}{volume}\rightarrow volume=\frac{mass}{density} \\  \\ volume=\frac{415g}{0.860g/mL}=483mL \end{gathered}

Therefore, 483 mL of the cleaning solution are used to clean hospital equipment.

How does an increase in temperature affect the equilibrium concentration of the underlined substance and K for each of the follo
Darya [45]

Explanation:

Due to the positive value of the change in temperature, this is an endothermic reaction.

Since the forward reaction is endothermic, increasing the temperature increases the equilibrium constant (k).

In an equilibrium system, the position of the equilibrium will move in a way to annul the change made to the system. An increase in temperature for an endothermic reaction would favour the reaction, leading to increase in amount of products and decrease in amount of reactants.

Use the following equation to answer the questions below:
Gala2k [10]

Explanation:

The equation of the reaction is given as;

Be + 2HCl → BeCl2 + H2

What is the mass of beryllium required to produce 25.0g of beryllium chloride?

1 mol of Be produces 1 mol of BeCl2

Converting to mass;

Mass = Molar mass  *  Number of moles

9.01g of Be produces 79.92g of BeCl2

xg of Be produces 25g of BeCl2

Solving for x;

x = 25 * 9.01 / 79.92

x = 2.82 g

What is the mass of hydrochloric acid required to produce 25.0g of beryllium chloride? g

Converting 25.0g of beryllium chloride to moles;

Number of moles = Mass / Molar mass

Number of moles = 25 / 79.92 = 0.3128 mol

2 mol of HCl produces 1 mol of BeCl2

x mol of HCl would produce 0.3128 mol of BeCl2

solving for x;

x = 0.3128 * 2 = 0.6256 mol

Converting to mass;

Mass = 0.6256 * 36.5 = 22.83 g

What is the mass of hydrogen gas produced when 25.0g of beryllium chloride is also produced? g

25g of BeCl2 = 0.3128 mol of BeCl2

From the equation;

1 mol of H2 is produced alongside 1 mol of BeCl2

This means;

0.3128 mol of H2 would also be produced alongside 0.3128 mol of BeCl2

Mass = Number of moles * Molar mass

Mass = 0.3128mol * 2.0159 g/mol = 0.6306 g
