Mary wanted to determine which type of fertilizer would help her plants grow taller. She got 16 plant pots andd scooped 2 cups o

f the same type of soil in each. Then she planted 1 sunflower seed in each plant pot. The first four pots were placed in her garden to grow. No fertilizer was added to this group. Mary did this to see how tall sunflower plants would grow under normal conditions. In the next four pots she added Miracle Grow. In the four pots she added Grow Rite and the last four pots she added Perlite. She placed all the plant pots in the same are of the garden.
How many trials were conducted?

Mary conducted four trials:

1. One with no fertilizer

2. One with Miracle Grow

3. One with Grow Rite

4. One with Perlite

She used four pots per trial, for a total of 16 pots.

What volume of solution must be added to 4.0 mol of NaCl to make a 1.2 M solution?
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 3.3 \ liters}}}

Explanation:

Molarity is a measure of concentration in moles per liter.

molarity=\frac{moles \ of \ solute}{liters \ of \ solution}}

The solution has a molarity of 1.2 M or 1.2 moles per liter. There are 4.0 moles of NaCl, the solute. We don't know the liters of solution, so we can use x.

  • molarity= 1.2 mol/L
  • moles of solute= 4.0 mol
  • liters of solution =x

Substitute the values into the formula.

1.2 \ mol/L = \frac{4.0 \ mol}{x}

Since we are solving for x, we must isolate the variable. Begin by cross multiply (multiply the 1st numerator and 2nd denominator, then the 1st denominator and 2nd numerator.

\frac {1.2 \ mol/L}{1}=\frac{ 4.0 \ mol}{x}

4.0 \ mol *1=1.2 \ mol/L *x

4.0 \ mol = 1.2 \ mol/L *x

x is being multiplied by 1.2 moles per liter. The inverse of multiplication is division, so divide both sides by 1.2 mol/L

\frac{4.0 \ mol}{1.2 \ mol/L} = \frac{1.2 \ mol/L *x}{1.2 \ mol/L}

\frac{4.0 \ mol}{1.2 \ mol/L}=x

The units of moles (mol) will cancel.

\frac{4.0 }{1.2 } \ L =x

3.33333333 \ L=x

The original measurements both have 2 significant figures, so our answer must have the same. For the number we found, this is the tenths place.

The 3 in the hundredth place tells us to leave the 3 in the tenths place.

3.3 \ L\approx x

Approximately  <u>3.3 liters of solution</u> are needed to make a 1.2 M solution with 4.0 moles of sodium chloride.

Be sure to use proper significant figures. The molecular weight of NaCl is 58.44 grams/mole. To prepare a 0.50 M solution: You w
Misha Larkins [42]
Your answer would be,
Molarity = moles of solute/volume of solution we needed, 29.22(g)(mol) of NaCI

= 29.22(g)/58.44(g)(mol^-1)(1)/1(L)
= 0.500(mol)(L^-1)



Hope that helps!!!

The density of mercury is 13.5g/mL. What is the volume of this liquid if the sample weighs 12.5 pounds?
Mama L [17]

Answer : The volume of liquid is 420 mL.

Explanation :

Density : The mass per unit volume of a substance is known as density.

Formula used:

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

As we are given:

Density of mercury = 13.5 g/mL

Mass = 12.5 pounds

First we have to convert mass of sample from pound to gram.

Conversion used:

As, 1 pound = 453.6 g

So, 12.5 pounds = 453.6 × 12.5 g = 5670 g

Now we have to calculate the volume of liquid.

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

Now putting all the given values in this formula, we get:

13.5g/mL=\frac{5670g}{\text{Volume}}

Volume = 420 mL

Therefore, the volume of liquid is 420 mL.

Which atom in the ground state has the same electron configuration as a calcium ion, Ca2+, in the ground state?(1) Ar(2) K(3) Mg
Irina-Kira [14]

atoms are made of 3 types of subatomic particles; electrons, protons and neutrons

atomic number is the number of protons. atomic number is characteristic for the element. In ground state atoms, the number of electrons and protons are the same.

the electronic configuration of Ca in the ground state is

Ca - 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶ 4s²

when Ca loses its 2 valence electrons, it becomes positively charged and the electronic configuration becomes

Ca - 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶

number of electrons in Ca²⁺ is 18

the atom in the ground state would have the same number of electrons and protons. Therefore number of protons are 18. then the atomic number of the element is 18

the atom having an atomic number of 18 is Ar.

the answer is 1) Ar
