An aqueous solution is 40.0 % by mass hydrochloric acid, HCl, and has a density of 1.20 g/mL. The mole fraction of hydrochloric
vivado [14]

Answer:

The molar concentration of HCl in the aqueous solution is 0.0131 mol/dm3

Explanation:

To get the molar concentration of a solution we will use the formula:

<em>Molar concentration = mass of HCl/ molar mass of HCl</em>

<em></em>

Mass of HCl in the aqueous solution will be 40% of the total mass of the solution.

We can extract the mass of the solution from its density which is 1.2g/mL

We will further perform our analysis by considering only 1 ml of this aqueous solution.

The mass of the substance present in this solution is 1.2g.

<em>The mass of HCl Present is 40% of 1.2 = 0.48 g.</em>

The molar mass of HCl can be obtained from standard tables or by adding the masses of Hydrogen (1 g) and Chlorine (35.46 g) = 36.46g/mol

Therefore, the molar concentration of HCl in the aqueous solution is 0.48/36.46 = 0.0131 mol/dm3

Why the statement all atoms of one element have the same mass is false
White raven [17]
Some elements have isotopes which have a different number of neutrons, and this means they have different masses.

1. Which of the following choices demonstrates the law of constant composition? (Slides 2 ‒ 3: Laws on Matter) (a) Nitrogen and
katrin2010 [14]

Answer:

(b) When 20.0 g of nitrogen and 32.0 g of oxygen are combined and allowed to react in two separate experiments, both times the product isolated from reaction contains 14.0 g of nitrogen and 32.0 g of oxygen.

Explanation:

The law of definite proportion states that a gen chemical compound always contains its constituent elements in a fixed ratio by mass, independent on the method of preparation.

The molar mass of Nitrogen and Oxygen would always remain the same, allowing for exact reactant masses (or mole ratio) irrespective of the given amount of sample.

What are the coordination numbers of li+ and s2− in the lithium sulfide crystal shown? enter the values in order of li+ and s2−,
Anna35 [415]
Answer:    
As there must be twice as many lithium ions as sulphide ions, the 'numbers'
must be different. 
 It's 4:8. i.e. 4 sulphides around each lithium; and 8 lithiums around each
sulphur. 
 It's an antifluorite structure.
