<span>Percentage by mass is the amount in mass of a component in a mixture per 100 unit of mass of the total mixture. Percentage by mass is the same as  %w/w. We can determine this by dividing the mass of the solute with the total mass of the mixture. However, from the problem statement, we are given the volume of the water so there is a need to convert this value to mass by using the density of water. We calculate as follows:

Mass of solution = 100 mL (0.99993 g/mL) water + 25 g EtOH
Mass of solution = 124.993 g solution

%w/w = 25 g / 124.993 g x100
%w/w = 20% of EtOH</span>

5000kg of ammonium nitrate per square kilometer of cornfield per year. how much nitric acid would be needed to make the fertiliz
Serggg [28]

NH_3+HNO_3-> NH_4NO_3

1 mole of nitric acid produce 1 mole of ammonium nitrate.

moles in 5000 kg of ammonium nitrate :

n=\dfrac{5000\times 1000}{80}\\\\n=62500\ moles ( molecular mass of ammonium nitrate is 80 gm/mol )

So, number of moles of nitric acid required are also 62500 moles.

Mass of 62500 moles of nitric acid :

mass = 62500\times 63 \\\\mass = 3937500\ gram\\\\mass = 393.75\ kg

Hence, this is the required solution.

What happens to the rate of dissolution as the temperature is increased in a gas solution?
Nina [5.8K]

Answer:

The rate decreases

Explanation:

When we dissolve a gas in a water, the process is exothermic. This implies that heat is evolved upon dissolution of a gas in water.

Recall from Le Chateliers principle that for exothermic reactions, an increase in temperature favours the reverse reaction. The implication of these is that when the temperature of the gas is increased, less gas will dissolve in water.

Hence increase in temperature decreases the rate of solubility of a gas in water.

The percent of remaining parent isotope in a radioactive decay process is 40 percent. How many half-lives have elapsed since the
muminat

Answer: Between 1 and 2.

Explanation:

Half life is the amount of time taken by a radioactive material to decay to half of its original value.

a=\frac{a_o}{2^n}        ............(1)

where,

a = amount of reactant left after n-half lives  = 40

a_o = Initial amount of the reactant  = 100

n = number of half lives

Putting in the values we get:

40=\frac{100}{2^n}  

2^n=2.5

taking log on both sides

nlog(2)=log(2.5)

n=1.32

Thus half-lives that have elapsed is between 1 and 2

Atoms of two different elements react with each other when they have?
kipiarov [429]

All other elements react with other elements to form compounds. In the special case where the reaction produces fixed numbers of the same types of atoms in exactly the same configuration, we say the elements have formed a molecule.
