Answer:

9.2-g of ethanol

Explanation:

The question is asking for us to solve for the mass of ethanol given the moles of it.

We can do this by going from mol -> grams using the molar mass of ethanol (46.068g).

Start off with the moles given (0.20mol) and multiply it by the molar mass of ethanol (46.068g).

This would give the mass of 9.214-g, but since our question has only 2 significant figures, round off your final answer to the same number of sig. figs.

So your final answer would be 9.2-g of ethanol.

***Molar mass is calculated by adding the masses of each element (found in periodic table) by how many times they are in the molecules.

A pharmacist wishes to strengthen a mixture from 10%alcohol to 30% alcohol. How much pure alcohol should be added to 7 liters of

Tomtit [17]

Answer:

2 litres of pure alcohol will be added to make the overall concentration of 9 litres of mixture as 30%.

Explanation:

Suppose x is the number of litres added to the 10% mixture than the quantity of new mixture is given as below

$n_{old}=7$ litres
$n_{new}=7+x$ litres

Also the quantity of alcohol is given as

$q_{old}=10 \% \, of \, 7 \, litres =0.7$

$q_{added}=x$

$q_{new}= 30 \% \,of \,new\, quantity = 0.3(7+x)$

Now the equation is as

$q_{old}+q_{added}=q_{new}\\0.7+x=0.3(7+x)\\0.7+x=2.1+0.3x\\x-0.3x=2.1-0.7\\0.7x=1.4\\x=2 \, litres$

So 2 litres of pure alcohol will be added to make the overall concentration of 9 litres of mixture as 30%.

Select the correct answer. When an atom in a reactant loses electrons, what happens to its oxidation number? A. Its oxidation nu

vfiekz [6]

Answer:

C. Its oxidation number increases.

Explanation:

Oxidation is defined as the loss of electrons by an atom while reduction is the gain of electrons by an atom.
Atoms of elements have an oxidation number of Zero in their elemental state.
When an atom looses electrons it undergoes oxidation and its oxidation number increases.
For example, an atom of sodium (Na) at its elemental state has an oxidation number of 0. When the sodium atom looses an electrons it becomes a cation, Na+, with an oxidation number of +1 , the loss of electron shows an increase in oxidation number from 0 to +1.

A number should be rounded up if

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

C.) The number after it is between 5 and 9

Explanation:

If the digit to the right is less than five, you must leave the digit you want to round to as it is.

But, if the digit to the right is greater than or equal to five, you must increase the value of the digit you're rounding to by one. And any remaining digits before the decimal point become zeros, and any that are after the decimal point are dropped.

Hope this helps you out! : )
