A container was found in the home of the victim that contained 120 g of ethylene glycol in 550 g of liquid. How many drinks, eac
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

0.432 drinks are toxic

Explanation:

The toxic dose of ethylene glycol is 0.1 mL per kg body weight (mL/kg). In grams (Density ethylene glycol = 1.11g/mL):

1.11g/mL * (0.1mL / kg) =  0.111g/kg

If the victim weighs 85kg, its letal dose is:

85kg * (0.111g/kg) = 9.435g of ethylene glycol

Using the concentration of ethylene glycol in the liquid:

9.435g of ethylene glycol * (550g liquid / 120g ethylene glycol) = 43.2g of liquid are toxic.

The drinks are:

43.2g of liquid * (1 drink / 100 g) =

Through the complete electrolysis of a sample of pure water, a student collects 14.0 grams of hydrogen gas and 112.0 grams of ox
Vadim26 [7]

Answer:

126.0g of water were initially present

Explanation:

The electrolysis of water occurs as follows:

2H₂O(l) ⇄ 2H₂(g) + O₂(g)

<em>Where 2 moles of water produce 2 moles of hydrogen and 1 mole of oxygen.</em>

<em />

To find the mass of water we need to determine moles of oxygen and hydrogen, thus:

<em>Moles Hydrogen:</em>

14.0g H₂ ₓ (1mol / 2g H₂) = 7 moles H₂

<em>Moles Oxygen:</em>

112.0g O₂ ₓ (1mol / 32g) = 3.5 moles O₂

Based on the chemical equation, the moles of water initially present were 7 moles (That produce 7 moles H₂ and 3.5 moles O₂). The mass of 7 moles of H₂O is:

7 moles H₂O * (18g / mol) =

When heated, calcium hydroxide and ammonium chloride react to produce ammonia gas, water vapor, and solid calcium chloride.
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

13.73g

Explanation:

mass of reactants = mass of products.

Mass reactants = 5.00 g + 10.00 g = 15.00 g

Mass products = 1.27g + mass of ammonia and water vapor

Mass of ammonia and water vapor

15.00g – 1.27 g = 13.73 g

Is KNO a strong acid?
stira [4]

Answer:

First of all, it's KNO₃ not KNO.

Second, KNO₃ is neither an acid nor it is a base, infact, it is a salt and therefore it's neutral.

hope that helps...
