Describe the difference between a ball-and-stick model and a space-filling model of a compound.

1 answer:

4 0

A space-filling model shows the relative amount of space each atom takes up. In other words, a space-filling model can show relative sizes of atoms. However, unlike ball-and-stick or structural models, space-filling models do not show bond lengths clearly. Bonds are not really like sticks in a ball-and-stick model.

What mass of powdered drink mix is needed to make a 0.5 M solution of 100 mL?

Maru [420]

Answer:

There is 17,114825 g of powdered drink mix needed

Explanation:

Step 1 : Calculate moles

As given, the concentration of the drink is 0.5 M, this means 0.5 mol / L

Since the volume is 100mL, we have to convert the concentration,

⇒0.5 / 1 = x /0.1 ⇒ 0.5* 0.1 = x = 0.05 M

This means there is 0.05 mol per 100mL

Step 2 : calculate mass of the powdered drink

here we use the formula n (mole) = m(mass) / M (Molar mass)

⇒ since powdered drink mix is usually made of sucrose (C12H22O11) and has a molar mass of 342.2965 g/mol.

0.05 mol = mass / 342.2965 g/mol

To find the mass, we isolate it ⇒0.05 mol * 342.2965 g/mol = 17,114825g

There is 17,114825 g of powdered drink mix needed
