Answer:

0.79 g

Explanation:

Let's introduce a strategy needed to solve any similar problem like this:

  • Apply the mass conservation law (assuming that this reaction goes 100 % to completion): the total mass of the reactants should be equal to the total mass of the products.

Based on the mass conservation law, we need to identify the reactants first. Our only reactant is sodium bicarbonate, so the total mass of the reactants is:

m_r=m_{NaHCO_3}=2.36 g

We have two products formed, sodium carbonate and carbonic acid. This implies that the total mass of the products is:

m_p=m_{Na_2CO_3}+m_{H_2CO_3}

Apply the law of mass conservation:

m_r=m_p

Substitute the given variables:

m_{NaHCO_3}=m_{Na_2CO_3}+m_{H_2CO_3}

Rearrange for the mass of carbonic acid:

m_{H_2CO_3}=m_{NaHCO_3}-m_{Na_2CO_3}=2.36 g - 1.57 g=0.79 g

A cucumber is placed in a concentrated salt solution. What will most likely happen? Select one: a. Water will flow from the cucu
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

a.- Water will flow from the cucumber to the solution

Explanation:

This is an example of osmosis in difference of concentration of solutions. In the salty solution there is more salt molecules than inside the cucumber. Trying to make up for the same salt concentration inside that outside the cucumber, it will tend to flow some of the water that is inside the cucumber tissues to the environment that surrounds it.

Why is a solution that is 0.10M HCN and 0.10M LiCN considered a good buffer system?
const2013 [10]
Because of the common ion effect. Adding a common ion decreases the solubility of the salt which is the intention of a buffer.

A medical lab is testing a new anticancer drug on cancer cells. The drug stock solution concentration is 1.5×10−9m, and 1.00 ml
Elis [28]

The concentration of the drug stock solution is 1.5*10^-9 M i.e. 1.5 * 10^-9 moles of the drug per Liter of the solution

Therefore, the number of moles present in 1 ml i.e. 1*10^-3 L of the solution would be =  1 *10^-3 L * 1.5 * 10^-9 moles/1 L = 1.5 * 10^-12 moles

1 mole of the drug will contain 6.023*10^23 drug molecules

Therefore, 1.5*10^-12 moles of the drug will correspond to :

    1.5 * 10^-12 moles * 6.023*10^23 molecules/1 mole = 9.035 * 10^11 molecules

The number of cancer cells = 2.0 * 10^5

Hence the ratio = drug molecules/cancer cells

                          = 9.035 *10^11/2.0 *10^5

                          = 4.5 * 10^6
