Why are the densities of corn syrup and gasoline expressed as a range of values?

Chemistry

Answer:

The answer is because they are not a substance, but a mixture of organic compounds.

Explanation:

A range of values is used because they are not a substance, but a mixture of organic compounds that has a range of molar masses. Corn syrup contains glucose in not less than 70% by weight of total solids and a reducing sugar content of 20% by weight on a dry basis. The composition of gasoline depends on the source from which it is extracted, therefore it has different molar masses. A gasoline with a long carbon chain is heavy and has a higher mass for a fixed volume, so its density will increase. Any change affecting the product will lead to an increase or decrease in density.

Have a nice day!

A range of values is given for the density of gasoline and corn syrup could be because these substances changes their volumes along with the changes in temperature which will result to a change in density as well. Hope this answers the question.

What is the volume of water in 150ml of the 35% of sucrose with a specific gravity of 1.115?
anzhelika [568]

Answer:

The volume of the water is 108.71 mL

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Volume of water =150 mL = 0.150 L

concentration of sucrose solution 35 % w/w this means in 100 grams of water we have 35 grams of sucrose

specific gravity =1.115

Step 2: Calculate the density of the solution

Density = specific gravity * density of water

Density of solution = 1.115 * 1g/ mL

Density of solution = 1.115 g/ mL

Step 3: Calculate mass of the solution

Mass of solution = density ¨volume

Mass of solution = 1.115 g/ mL * 150 mL

Mass of solution = 167.25 grams

Step 4: Calculate mass of sucrose

35 % = 0.35 * 167.25 grams

Mass sucrose = 58.54 grams

Step 5: Calculate mass of water

Mass of water = mass of sample - mass of sucrose

Mass of water = 167.25 - 58.54 = 108.71 grams

Step 6: Calculate volume of water

Volume = mass / density

Volume = 108.71 grams / 1g/ mL

Volume = 108.71 mL = 0.10871 L

The volume of the water is 108.71 mL

Zn + I2 ---&gt; Znl2<br> Determine the theoretical yield of the product if 2g of Zn is used
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

Mass = 9.58 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of Zn = 2g

Theoretical yield of ZnI₂ = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

Zn + I₂       →     ZnI₂

Number of moles of Zn:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 2g / 65.38 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.03 mol

Now we will compare the moles of Zn and ZnI₂.

                   Zn           :          ZnI₂

                    1             :           1

                  0.03        :         0.03

Mass of ZnI₂:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 0.03 mol × 319.22 g/mol

Mass = 9.58 g
