<u>Answer:</u> The molality of NaOH in the solution is 0.551 m

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate mass of a substance, we use the equation:

\text{Density of substance}=\frac{\text{Mass of substance}}{\text{Volume of substance}}

Density of solution = 1.15 g/mL

Volume of solution = 1 L = 1000 mL     (Conversion factor:  1 L = 1000 mL)

Putting values in above equation, we get:

1.15 g/mL=\frac{\text{Mass of solution}}{1000mL}\\\\\text{Mass of solution}=(1.15g/mL\times 1000mL)=1150g

We are given:

Mass of solute (NaOH) = 24.8 grams

Mass of solution = 1150 grams

Mass of solvent = Mass of solution - mass of solute = [1150 - 24.8] g = 1125.2 g

To calculate the molality of solution, we use the equation:

Molality=\frac{m_{solute}\times 1000}{M_{solute}\times W_{solvent}\text{ (in grams)}}

Where,

m_{solute} = Given mass of solute (NaOH) = 24.8 g

M_{solute} = Molar mass of solute (NaOH) = 40 g/mol

W_{solvent} = Mass of solvent = 1125.2 g

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\text{Molality of }NaOH=\frac{24.8\times 1000}{40\times 1125.2}\\\\\text{Molality of }NaOH=0.551m

Hence, the molality of NaOH in the solution is 0.551 m

How many liters of 1.5 M potassium permanganate could be made if 152 g of the solute are available?
Misha Larkins [42]

Answer:

0.64 L

Explanation:

Recall that

n= CV where n=m/M

Hence:

m/M= CV

m= given mass of solute =152g

M= molar mass of solute

C= concentration of solute in molL-1 = 1.5M

V= volume of solute =????

Molar mass of potassium permanganate= 158.034 g/mol

Thus;

152 g/158.034 gmol-1= 1.5M × V

V= 0.96/1.5

V= 0.64 L

How do you calculate the density of a gas, based on its temperature and pressure?
stiks02 [169]
We can rearrange the ideal gas equation:
PV = nRT, where n is the number of moles equivalent to:
n = mass / Mr
PV = mRT/Mr
m/V = PMr/RT
density = PMr / RT; where Mr and R are constant.
