In order to calculate the percentage composition of a certain element, certain steps are followed:
1- You get the the molar mass of the component you wish to find its percentage in units of gm/mole.
2- You then get the molar of the whole given compound
3- You the divide the molar mass of the desired component by the total molar mass of the compound and then multiply the output by 100 to get the percentage.
As you can see, calculating the percentage is dependent on the mass and not the volume

Calculate the concentration of so42− ions in a 0.010 m aqueous solution of sulfuric acid. express your answer to four decimal pl
dimulka [17.4K]
<span>Answer: 0.00649M


The question is incomplete,
</span>

<span>You are told that the first ionization of the sulfuric acid is complete and the second ionization of the sulfuric acid has a constant Ka₂ = 0.012
</span>
<span>
With that you can solve the question following these steps"
</span>

<span>1) First ionization:
</span>
<span>
H₂SO₄(aq) --> H⁺ (aq) + HSO₄⁻ (aq)


Under the fully ionization assumption the concentration of HSO4- is the same of the acid = 0.01 M


2) Second ionization
</span>

<span>HSO₄⁻ (aq) ⇄ H⁺ + SO₄²⁻ with a Ka₂ = 0.012
</span>

<span>Do the mass balance:
</span>


<span><span>        HSO₄⁻ (aq)        H⁺        SO₄²⁻</span>
</span>
<span /><span /><span>        0.01 M  - x          x            x


</span><span>Ka₂ = [H⁺] [SO₄²⁻] / [HSO₄⁻]</span>
<span /><span>
=> Ka₂ = (x²) / (0.01 - x) = 0.012
</span><span />

<span>3) Solve the equation:


</span><span>x² = 0.012(0.01 - x) = 0.00012 - 0.012x</span>
<span /><span>
x² + 0.012x - 0.0012 = 0
</span><span />

<span>Using the quadratic formula: x = 0.00649
</span><span />

<span>So, the requested concentratioN is [SO₄²⁻] = 0.00649M</span>

How many moles of oxygen are produced when 2 mol of potassium chlorate (KClO3) decompose
ioda
Keep in mind that when two moles of potassium chlorate are decomposed, 3 moles of oxygen are produced.Think of  the coefficients: since the mole ratio is 2 to 3, it means that<span> 2 mol KClO3 will turn into 3 mol O2.
</span>
2kclO3->2kcl+3O2
