10 / (7.89) (2) 

molarity equation is M = Moles of solute / Liters of solution

7.89 = Moles of solute / 2

(7.89)(2). The question asks for the molar mass which is defined as g/mol. Dividing would give you the unknown compound.

Which balanced equation represents a redox reaction?
nlexa [21]

Answer: option (3) CuO + CO ⇄ Cu + CO₂


Explanation:


1) A redox reaction is an oxidation-reduction reaction.


2) An oxidation-reduction reaction is one in which at least one species is oxidized and other (or others) is reduced.


3) Oxidation is the increase on the oxidation number, which occurs by releasing electrons.


4) Reduction is the decrease of the oxidation number, which occurs by gaining electrons.


5) By looking at the oxidation numbers of the reactants and the products you can tell whether a reaction is a redox one.


6) There are some rules to calculate the oxidation states which you need to handle to determine the oxidation states of the atoms in any chemical formula.


7) The main rule that you can use at a glance is if an element is alone in one side of the equation and is bonded to other kind of atom in the other side.


That is because the rule states that for any element that is not combined with other element its oxidation state is 0.


In this case, you can apply that rule to the equation of the choice number (3). In that, you can see that Cu is pure which as per the mentioned rule means that its oxidation state is 0.


As Cu is combined with O, CuO, in the reactant side of the chemical equation, then its oxidation number is not 0. Indeed, the rule is that in the formula CuO the oxidation states of Cu and O add up 0, and since the oxidation number of O is 2-, the oxidation number of Cu is 2+.


Therefore, having Cu changed its oxidation state from 2+ to 0, it was reduced, and this is a redox reaction.


Of course other atoms had to be oxidized. It was C whose oxidation state went from 2+ in CO to 4+ in CO₂.

According to the Kinetic Molecular Theory, as the volume of a gas increases: the number of particle impacts per unit area increa
aliya0001 [1]

As the volume of a gas increases <em>at constant temperature</em>, the number of particle impacts per unit area decreases.

There is the same number of impacts, but they are spread over a larger surface area.

Thus, the number of impacts per unit area decreases.

At 25C the density of water is 0.997044 g/mL. Use this value to determine the percent error for the two density measurements
Gnom [1K]

Given that:

  • At 25C the density of water is 0.997044 g/mL.

From the information attached below, we have the following parameters.

The density of water calculation using a bottle.

     Initial volume of    Final volume of    Mass of water   Density (g/mL)

     burette (mL)        burette   (mL)       dispensed (g)

 

Sample 1      2.33                     7.34                   5.000               -----

Sample 2      7.34                    12.37                 5.025                -----

Sample 3      12.37                   18.50                6.112                  -----

Sample 4      18.50                  24.57               6.064                 -----

Sample 5     24.57                  31.31                6.720                  -----

The first thing we need to do is to determine the change in the volume of the burette in each sample from the above information.

  • The change in the volume of the burette = (final volume - the initial volume) mL

Sample 1:

= (7.34 - 2.33) mL

= 5.01 mL

Sample 2:

= (12.37 - 7.34) mL

= 5.03 mL

Sample 3:

= (18.50 - 12.37) mL

= 6.03 mL

Sample 4:

= (24.57 - 18.50) mL

= 6.07 mL

Sample 5:

= (31.31 - 24.57) mL

= 6.74 mL

The mass of the water dispersed in sample 1 is given as = 5.000 g

Using the relation for calculating the density of each, we have:

Sample 1

\mathbf{density = \dfrac{mass}{volume}}

\mathbf{density = \dfrac{5.01 g}{5.000 ml}}

density = 0.998004 g/ml

Sample 2:

\mathbf{density = \dfrac{5.025 g}{5.03ml}}

density = 0.999006 g/ml

Sample 3:

\mathbf{density = \dfrac{6.112 g}{6.13ml}}

density = 0.997064 g/ml

Sample 4:

\mathbf{density = \dfrac{6.064 \ g}{6.07 \ ml}}

density = 0.999012 g/ml

Sample 5:

\mathbf{density = \dfrac{6.720 \ g}{6.74 \ ml}}

density = 0.997033 g/ml

Thus, the average density for all the samples is:

\mathbf{= \dfrac{( 0.998004 + 0.999006 + 0.997064 +   0.999012  + 0.997033  )}{5}}

= 0.998024

∴

The percentage error for the two densities measurement is:

=\dfrac{ (experimental \  value -theoretical  \ value)\times 100 }{theoretical  \ value}

Given that the theoretical value = 0.997044 g/ml

Then;

\mathbf{= \dfrac{(0.998024 - 0.997044)100}{0.997044}}

= 0.0983%

Therefore, we can conclude that the percent error for the two density measurements is 0.0983%

Sugar dissolves readily in water because it is a(n) ____ substance.
Mnenie [13.5K]
The answer to this question would be D. Hydrophilic.

The word hydrophilic mean attracted by water. That means the molecule has a force to attract water molecule, thus be able to dissolve in water.  The polarity of the molecule would determine whether a molecule hydrophilic or not.
Its opposite would be hydrophobic which the molecule can't dissolve in water.  One example of this would be oil or fat. That is why sometimes it is called lipophilic too.
