How can filtering produce clean water from dirty water?

Filtering would remove the dirt and some particles of dirt from the water, which would make it good to drink.

Elan Coil [88]
If there's just some barium put in an aqueous solution, then it should be something like this.
It's a mixture of a solution and an insoluble solid, so the easiest way to go is through filtration. (Also, I'm assuming the barium is cut into very small chips.)

In a line, simply filter the solution using a folded filter paper in a funnel, collect the residue in a beaker or flask, rinse it with distilled water and let it dry. (Or simply filtering it could be enough, depending on how far your teacher wants you to go.)

Stuff needed:
>filter paper (for separating the solid from the solution)
>funnel (to hold the filter paper)
>beaker or flask (to hold the filtrate)
>distilled water (to rinse the solid)
>spatula (to scoop up the solid)

Procedure:
>Fold filter paper and line the funnel with it. Place the funnel in the flask or beaker.
>Pour solution in. Then add water (I think using tap water might be fine in this case, but you can use distilled water if you'd like) to wash out the container with the solution of any solid you may have not gotten in the first try. Alternatively, you could use a spatula to spoon it onto the filter paper.
>Once everything has been filtered, pour some distilled water on the residue on the filter paper to wash away the solution.
>Take out the filter paper, open it up and let it dry.

This can be used in real life in many occasions. For example, when you make tea, you need to filter the leaves out. Or when you cook the pasta, you put it in a sieve to separate the pasta from the water. Or when you fish using fishing nets, you "filter" the fish from the water.

If 17. 6 g of hcl are used to produce a 14. 5 l solution, what is the ph of the solution?.
kati45 [8]

This problem is providing us with the mass of hydrochloric acid and the volume of solution and asks for the pH of the resulting solution, which turns out to be 1.477.

<h3>pH calculations</h3>

In chemistry, one can calculate the pH of a solution by firstly obtaining its molarity as the division of the moles of solute by the liters of solution, so in this case for HCl we have:

M=\frac{17.6g*\frac{1mol}{36.46g} }{14.5L} \\\\M=0.0333 M

Next, due to the fact that hydrochloric acid is a strong acid, we realize its concentration is nearly the same to the released hydrogen ions to the solution upon ionization. Thereby, the resulting pH is:

pH=-log(0.0333)\\\\pH=1.477

Which conserves as much decimals as significant figures in the molarity.

Manganese forms several oxides when combined with oxygen. One of the oxides (Oxide 1) contains 63.2% of Mn and another oxide (Ox
Nina [5.8K]

Explanation:

Defining law of definite proportions, it states that when two elements form more than one compound, the ratios of the masses of the second element which combine with a fixed mass of the first element will always be ratios of small whole numbers.

A. One of the oxides (Oxide 1) contains 63.2% of Mn.

Mass of the oxide = 100g

Mass of Mn = 63.2 g

Mass of O = 100 - 63.2

= 36.8 g

Ratio of Mn to O = 63.2/36.8

= 1.72

Another oxide (Oxide 2) contains 77.5% Mn.

Mass of oxide = 100 g

Mass of Mn = 77.5 g

Mass of O = 100 - 77.5

= 22.5 g

Ratio of Mn to O = 77.5/22.5

= 3.44

Therefore, the ratio of the masses of Mn and O in Oxide 1 and Oxide 2 is in the ratio 1.72 : 3.44, which is also 1 : 2. So the law of multiple proportions is obeyed.

B.

Oxide 1

Mass of Mn per 1 g of O = mass of Mn/mass of O

= 77.5/22.5

= 3.44 g/g of Oxygen.

Oxide 2

Mass of Mn per 1 g of O = mass of Mn/mass of O

= 77.5/22.5

= 3.44 g/g of Oxygen.
