Two methanol-water mixtures are contained in separate tanks. The first mixture contains 40.0 wt% methanol and the second contain

s 70.0 wt% methanol. If 200 kg of the first mixture is combined with 150 kg of the second, what are the mass and composition of the product? How many independent material balances can be written?

Answer:

M_{per}= 52.86

W_{per}=47.14

Explanation:

<u>First mixture</u>:

40 wt% methanol - 60 wt% water 200 kg

m_{met1}=200 kg * 0.4= 80 kg

m_{wat1}=200 kg * 0.6= 120 kg

<u>Second mixture</u>:

70 wt% methanol - 30 wt% water 150 kg

m_{met2}=150 kg * 0.7= 105 kg

m_{wat2}=150 kg * 0.3= 45 kg

Final mixture:

m_{metF=80 kg + 105 kg= 185 kg

m_{watF}=120 kg + 45 = 165 kg

M_{per}=\frac{185 kg}{185 kg + 165 kg}*100= 52.86

W_{per}=\frac{165 kg}{185 kg + 165 kg}*100=47.14

If, the compositions are constant, the only variables are the mass of each mixture used in the final one, so there can be only one independent balance.

25 L of a gas is collected at 115 kPa. If the pressure increases to 300 kPa, what is the new volume?
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

V2 = 9.58 Litres.

Explanation:

Given the following data;

Initial volume = 25 L

Initial pressure = 115 kPa

Final pressure = 300 kPa

To find the new volume V2, we would use Boyles' law.

Boyles states that when the temperature of an ideal gas is kept constant, the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to the volume occupied by the gas.

Mathematically, Boyles law is given by;

PV = K

P_{1}V_{1} = P_{2}V_{2}

Substituting into the equation, we have;

115 * 25 = 300*V_{2}

2875 = 300*V_{2}

V_{2} = \frac {2875}{300}

V_{2} = 9.58

V2 = 9.58 L

Therefore, the new volume is 9.58 litres.

Hafnium has six naturally occurring isotopes: 0.16% of 174Hf, with an atomic weight of 173.940 amu; 5.26% of 176Hf, with an atom
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

177.277amu

Explanation:

the total occuring isotopes for Hafnium is =6.

First isotope had an atomic weight of 173.940amu

Second isotope =175.941amu

Third isotope =176.943amu

Fourth isotope=177.944amu

Fifth isotope. =178.946amu

sixth isotope .179.947amu

<em>Avera</em><em>ge</em><em> </em><em>ato</em><em>mic</em><em> </em><em>wei</em><em>ght</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>Haf</em><em>nium</em><em>=</em><em> </em><em>sum</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>all</em><em> </em><em>the </em><em>atomi</em><em>c</em><em> </em><em>weights</em><em> </em><em>of</em><em> </em><em>the</em><em> </em><em>iso</em><em>topes</em><em>/</em><em> </em><em>Tota</em><em>l</em><em> </em><em>occu</em><em>ring</em><em> </em><em>isotopes</em>

Thus, 173.940amu+175.941amu+176.943amu+177.944amu+178.946amu+179.947amu.= 1063.661amu

Average atomic weight= 1063.661amu /6 = 177.2768333amu

= 177.277amu to 3 decimal places.

Write a full chemical equation for the reactions between magnesium and sulfuric acid
melamori03 [73]

Answer:

magnesium + hydrochloric acid → hydrogen gas + magnesium chloride

explanation:

the nitrogen in HNO3 is in the +5 oxidation state and is easily reduced. The reduction would result in the oxidation of the hydrogen gas, forming the water once again.The sulfur in H2SO4 is also in its highest oxidation state, +6.

<em>Hope</em><em> this</em><em> helps</em><em> </em><em>:</em><em>)</em>

What is the molecule shown below?
FrozenT [24]

Answer:

2,3–dimethylpentane

Explanation:

To know which option is correct, we shall determine the name of the compound.

To obtain the name of the compound, do the following:

1. Determine the longest continuous carbon chain. This gives the parent name of the compound.

2. Identify the substituent group attached to the compound.

3. Locate the position of the substituent group by giving it the lowest possible count.

4. Combine the above to obtain the name of the compound.

Now, we shall determine the name of the compound as follow:

1. The longest continuous carbon chain is 5. Thus, the parent name of the compound is pentane.

2. The substituent group attached is methyl (–CH₃)

3. There are two methyl group attached to the compound. One is located at carbon 2 and the other at carbon 3.

4. Therefore, the name of the compound is:

2,3–dimethylpentane

None of the options are correct.
