A student was asked to prepare 500.0 mL of 6.0 M NaOH. The student measured 120.0 g of NaOH and placed it in a 1000 mL beaker. T

he student then added 500.0 mL of distilled water to the beaker and stirred until all of the NaOH had dissolved. The resulting solution is not 6.0 M. Is the concentration too high or too low? Explain and describe the proper technique for preparing this solution. 黑鬼

Answer:

The concentration of the solution will be much lower than 6M

Explanation:

To prepare a solution of a solid, the appropriate mass is taken and accurately weighed in a weighing balance and then made up to mark with distilled water.

From

n= CV

n = number of moles m/M( m= mass of solid, M= molar mass of compound)

C= concentration of substance

V= volume of solution

m=120g

M= 40gmol-1

V=500ml

120/40= C×500/1000

C= 120/40× 1000/500

C=6M

This solution will not be exactly 6M if the student follows the procedure outlined in the question. The actual concentration will be much less than 6M.

This is because, solutions are prepared in a standard volumetric flask. Using a 1000ml beaker, the student must have added more water than the required 500ml thereby making the actual concentration of the solution less than the expected 6M.

What makes alkali metals a family?​
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

The metals in this group are lithium, sodium, potassium, rubidium, cesium, and francium. The gas hydrogen is also put in this group because it shares similar reactivity with the alkali metals.

I don't know if this is what you wanted or not sorry if it isn't

The half life of plutonium-239 (239pu, pu-239) is 24,100 years. How much plutonium will remain after 1000 years if the initial a
Anestetic [448]

The mass of plutonium that will remain after 1000 years if the initial amount is 5 g when the half life of plutonium-239 (239pu, pu-239) is 24,100 years is 2.5 g

The equation is Mr=Mi(1/2)^n

where n is the number of half-lives

Mr is the mass remaining after n half lives

Mi is the initial mass of the sample

To find n, the number of half-lives, divide the total time 1000 by the time of the half-life(24,100)

n=1000/24100=0.0414

So Mr=5x(1/2)^1=2.5 g

The mass remaining is 2.5 g

  • The half life is the time in which the concentration of a substance decreases to half of the initial value.

How to convert 151cm to km
maw [93]
Just multiply 151 x 0.0001

That will equal:

0.00151 km or if you want to round it then it would be 0.02km

Elements in the same blank on the periodic table have the same number of valence electrons
nikitadnepr [17]
Elements in the same group on the periodic table have the same number of valence electrons. The "groups" are the column (or rows). groups are vertically and periods are horizontally.
