What is a supersaturated solution?

Chemistry
1 answer:
sergey [27]3 years ago
5 0

Supersaturation is a solution that contains more of the dissolved material than could be dissolved by the solvent under normal circumstances. It can also refer to a vapor of a compound that has a higher (partial) pressure than the vapor pressure of that compound.

Calculate the amount of water required to prepare 500g of 2.5% solution of sugar.
Snowcat [4.5K]

(i) We start by calculating the mass of sugar in the solution:

mass of sugar = concentration × solution mass

mass of sugar = 2.5/100 × 500 = 12.5 g  

Then now we can calculate the amount of water:

solution mass = mass of sugar + mass of water

mass of water =  solution mass - mass of sugar

mass of water = 500 - 12.5 = 487.5 g

(ii) We use the following reasoning:

If       500 g solution contains 12.5 g sugar

Then    X g solution contains 75 g sugar

X=(500×75)/12.5 = 3000 g solution

Now to get the amount of solution in liters we use density (we assume that is equal to 1):

Density = mass / volume

Volume = mass / density

Volume = 3000 / 1 = 3000 liters of sugar solution

g Nitrogen in the atmosphere consists of two nitrogen atoms covalently bonded together (N2). Knowing that nitrogen is atomic num
vichka [17]

Explanation:

Since, the atomic number of nitrogen is 7 and its electronic distribution is 2, 5. So, in order to attain stability it needs to gain 3 electrons.

Hence, when it chemically combines another nitrogen atom then as both the atoms are non-metals. So, sharing of electrons will take place.

Also, there is no difference in electronegativity of two nitrogen atoms. Hence, compound formed N_{2} is non-polar covalent in nature.

Identify the oxidation state of Ba 2 + . +2 Identify the oxidation state of S in SO 2 . +2 Identify the oxidation state of S in
cupoosta [38]

Answer:

The oxidation state of Ba in cation Ba²⁺ is +2

The oxidation state of S in SO₂, is +4

The oxidation state of S in anion sulfate (SO₄⁻²) is +6

The oxidation state of Zn in the Zinc sulfate, is +2

Explanation:

We define oxidation state as the number which can be negative or positive that  

indicates the number of electrons that the atom has accepted or transferred.

All the elements in ground state has 0 as oxidation state.

This numbers are very important for redox reaction which are balanced by the ion electron method.

When the elements gain electrons, the element is being reduced so the oxidation state decreases.

When the elements release electrons, the element is oxidized so the oxidation state increases.

We have to think, that global charge of a compound is 0, for example in the ZnSO₄.

The sulfate anion has a global charge of -2 because it has released 2 protons, it came from the sulfuric acid (H₂SO₄). As the global charge is -2, oxygen acts with -2, and the anion has 4 atoms so the global charge of O is -8. Definetly S, has +6 as oxidation state.

In the SO₂, oxygen acts with -2 and there are 2 atoms in the compound, so the global charge is 0 and the global charge for O  is -4. Therefore S must act with +4.

Ba²⁺ is an element of group 2 and has a tendency to form a cation, so it can release electrons for that purpose.  At least, it can release 2 e⁻, that's why the oxidation state is +2. It can complete the octet rule and it will be isoelectronic with Xe.
