Mercury is a liquid meteal but it is not hard? how can we say it is a metal

What's the problem ? Hardness is not the definition of a metal. You need to expand your thinking. EVERY element is solid, liquid, and gas, over different ranges of temperature ... including all of the metals. There are only TWO elements that are liquid AT ROOM TEMPERATURE, and mercury is one of them. But on a mild day at the south pole, mercury is solid too.

a concentration solution of H2so4 is 59.4% by mass (m/m) and has a density of 1.83 g/mL. How many mL of the solution would be re

Blababa [14]

Answer: 41.5 mL

Explanation:

Molarity of a solution is defined as the number of moles of solute dissolved per liter of the solution.

$Molarity=\frac{n}{V_s}$

where,

n = moles of solute

$V_s$ = volume of solution in L

Given : 59.4 g of $H_2SO_4$ in 100 g of solution

moles of $H_2SO_4=\frac{\text {given mass}}{\text {molar mass}}=\frac{59.4g}{98g/mol}=0.61$

Volume of solution = $\frac{\text {mass of solution}}{\text {density of solution}}=\frac{100g}{1.83g/ml}=54.6ml$

Now put all the given values in the formula of molality, we get

$Molality=\frac{0.61\times 1000}{54.6ml}=11.2M$

To calculate the volume of acid, we use the equation given by neutralisation reaction:

$M_1V_1=M_2V_2$

where,

$M_1\text{ and }V_1$ are the molarity and volume of stock acid which is $H_2SO_4$

$M_2\text{ and }V_2$ are the molarity and volume of dilute acid which is $H_2SO_4$

We are given:

$M_1=11.2M\\V_1=mL\\M_2=0.30M\\V_2=1550mL$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$11.2\times V_1=0.30\times 1550\\\\V_1=41.5mL$

Thus 41.5 mL of the solution would be required to prepare 1550 mL of a .30M solution of the acid
