<u>Answer:</u> The mass of calcium hydroxide that are present in the solution is 0.3256 grams.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the moles of a solute, we use the equation:

\text{Molarity of the solution}=\frac{\text{Moles of solute}}{\text{Volume of solution (in L)}}

We are given:

Volume of hydrochloric acid = 42.7mL = 0.0427 L   (Conversion factor: 1 L = 1000 mL)

Molarity of the solution = 0.208 moles/ L

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.208mol/L=\frac{\text{Moles of hydrochloric acid}}{0.0427L}\\\\\text{Moles of hydrochloric acid}=0.0088mol

For the given chemical reaction:

Ca(OH)_2(aq.)+2HCl\rightarrow CaCl_2(aq.)+2H_2O(l)

By Stoichiometry of the reaction:

2 moles of hydrochloric acid reacts with 1 mole of calcium hydroxide.

So, 0.0088 moles of hydrochloric acid will react with = \frac{1}{2}\times 0.0088=0.0044mol of calcium hydroxide.

To calculate the mass of calcium hydroxide, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}

Moles of calcium hydroxide = 0.0044 moles

Molar mass of calcium hydroxide = 74 g/mol

Putting values in above equation, we get:

0.0044mol=\frac{\text{Mass of calcium hydroxide}}{74g/mol}\\\\\text{Mass of calcium hydroxide}=0.3256g

Hence, the mass of calcium hydroxide that are present in the solution is 0.3256 grams.

MrRissso [65]
Yes, especially if its from a lake, pond, or ocean since water moves around. Dinasours could have spit out or maybe dripped some water, so basically yes.
