Sholpan [36]

The number of mole of ammonium ion, NH₄⁺ in the solution is 0.175 mole

We'll begin by calculating the number of mole of NH₄NO₃ in the solution. This can be obtained as follow:

Volume = 125 mL = 125 / 1000 = 0.125 L

Molarity = 1.40 M

Mole = Molarity x Volume

Mole of NH₄NO₃ = 1.40 × 0.125

Finally, we shall determine the number of mole of ammonium ion, NH₄⁺ in the solution. This can be obtained as follow:

NH₄NO₃(aq) —> NH₄⁺(aq) + NO₃¯(aq)

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of NH₄NO₃ contains 1 mole of NH₄⁺

Therefore,

0.175 mole of NH₄NO₃ will also contain 0.175 mole of NH₄⁺

Thus, the number of mole of ammonium ion, NH₄⁺ in the solution is 0.175 mole

<u>Answer:</u> The number of moles of strontium bicarbonate is $7.5\times 10^{-9}mol$

<u>Explanation:</u>

Formula units are defined as lowest whole number ratio of ions in an ionic compound. It is calculate by multiplying the number of moles by Avogadro's number which is $6.022\times 10^{23}$

We are given:

Number of formula units of $Sr(HCO_3)_2=4.55\times 10^{15}$

As, $6.022\times 10^{23}$ number of formula units are contained in 1 mole of a substance.

So, $4.55\times 10^{15}$ number of formula units will be contained in = $\frac{1}{6.022\times 10^{23}}\times 4.55\times 10^{15}=7.5\times 10^{-9}mol$ of strontium bicarbonate.

Hence, the number of moles of strontium bicarbonate is $7.5\times 10^{-9}mol$

Identify ways to reduce the risk of liquid bumping while heating.

postnew [5]

The most common way of preventing bumping is by adding one or two boiling chips to the reaction vessel. However, these alone may not prevent bumping and for this reason it is advisable to boil liquids in a boiling tube, a boiling flask, or an Erlenmeyer flask.
